That was pretty much my argument… well said that man.

Man City paid 32 million for Robhino last year in an attempt to be more successful than Chelsea, who were also interested in him. Didn't mean they were a better club/more attractive proposition than Chelsea (other than financially) - just meant they were prepared to spend stupid money on a player that turned out to be 32 million quid's worth of flop while Chelsea went on to win the Premiership. In the case of Carlton Cole, Steven Fletcher scored 8 goals for a side that got relegated last season, is only 23 and cost us half what is being quoted as the price Stoke will pay for Cole. 14 million quid for Carlton Cole is ridiculous in my opinion and makes our signing of Fletcher look even better business. _____ From: nswolves@googlegroups.com [mailto:nswol...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Marcus Chantry Sent: Friday, 23 July 2010 12:13 PM To: nswolves@googlegroups.com Subject: [NSWolves] Stoke I see Stoke are rumoured to be planning a £14m bid for Carlton Cole. Aside from the fact that it seems like a high amount for Carlton Cole, where have Stoke found all this money from? I consider Stoke to be the type of team that we should/could be competing against this season but it concerns me that (1) they have that type of cash available and (2) that they are able to attract Carlton Cole as a potential signing. He scored 10 goals last season for a side that only just managed to stay up, scored 12 the season before and is only 26. So he is proven at Premier League level. Let’s hope Fletcher and Doyle can form a partnership that bangs in enough goals. M The information contained in this email is confidential.
