I think ?80m for Ronaldo must have been agreed last summer - but i think key to the deal was a penalty of about ?25m if they didn't execute the agreement.... as no way do you pay ?56m for Kaka but ?80m for Ronaldo. I think Madrid were forced to go through with it.

If I was a Unuted fan, I'd be made up with that. He's a great player, but thinks he's WAY bigger than the team, and questions his manager's decisions. United can get some real quality in with ?80m, and talent that doesn't think it's the most important thing in the dressing room, so I think they are the winners.


Fingers crossed he'll suffer a career ending injury in the first game of the season. I normally wouldn't wish that on anyone, but I really do think he's a repulsive little cnut!

Be interesting to see who they buy with the 80m though. Difficult to find someone who can play wide, play in the middle, take freekicks and score 20odd goals a season. Can only play 11 players at any one time. Knock off Ronaldo's goals and would Utd have won the last 2 seasons? Not so sure.


Maybe Rooney can step up and be the player everyone thinks he already is. But here's a little stat for you. Dirk Kuyt had more goals and assists than Rooney in the Premiership last season, playing in a not too dissimilar position.

I paid ?90 for my ticket (direct from the club) when we played them at the Bernabeu last season. Reckon that probably helps. Theiving gets!!


I also imagine they'll sell a heck of a lot of shirts with Ronny and Kaka on the back over the next couple of seasons. Probably not 130 million quids worth though.

You missed out his main talent - synchronised diving!

      Fireworks

      If it was limited to a couple of days a year, so we all knew, that would be fine. In the last few years (and it is a recent thing) you get random fireworks going off any time after dusk for half the year. It does more than cause problems for pets and wildlife- it can mean lasting damage and massive expense and hassle for pet owners. All because some get a buzz out of loud bangs.

      Ohh dear.  Fireworks can be great fun.  Where I used to live the kids would have firework wars/games.  Watching them was more enjoyable than watching  TV. (Which you could hardly hear due to the pops and bangs).  It's not like anyone/anything could stop them. I would still prefer organised public displays that are affordable.   And I agree that fireworks cause problems for wild life, pets and people.   It seems to be one of those things that just happens so we have to put up with it.  But it is still not as problematic here as in other areas in London - that's for sure.
