I don't say this too often, but in this case I am 100% behind the Walkmeister. This is a fcuking disgrace, made worse by that complete cnut Warnock rubbing salt into the wound by mocking us with how much he would have paid in the summer. We are an embarrassment. No Sean, Kilgallon wasn't perfect, I've often pulled Rich up with a few "Steady on there" moments, but Rich is right. YOU noticed him making last gasp challenges because he was getting half the defence out of the mire due to their incompetancy. Getting rid of the shite (Although Creaney has yet to attract that lucrative offer from Rochdale) and putting something half decent ALONGSIDE Killa would have seen him not needing to make such appearances and indeed oing what you say and being virtually anonymous because he can get on with his own job. But what REALLY pissed me off is the price. Bollocks to anyone who whinges "Oh but his forms not been too good recently" we got £1.75 Mill for an England Under 21 International. Without doubt someone who, in the right team and with the right coaching, could IMHO DEFINATELY rise up to full international level. It's Aaron Lennon all over again. I thought when we got £5M for two 16 year olds that the fire sale mentality had gone, obviously not. SO we've pocketed 2.75 Million pounds for two players, one of which (Using Wright Phillips as the benchmark) is now - within 18 months of that - worth £21 Million. Injury aside, I can see him if he does carry on how I expect him to, going for £15M to somewhere like Liverpool in the future. AND WE HAVEN'T EVEN INCLUDED A BUY ON CLAUSE!!!! We are SO fucking useless in the transfer market, we always have been and, despite cuddly Kens empty rhetoric about how he won't be made to look stupid when it comes to transfers. He just has been.
