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!

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Sue · Posted

      As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.

      Is that a fact or an opinion?

      I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him
