Joe Cole on his way?

[Mellowhoop]

Not turning my nose up but what if he's costing us 45k a week??? And injured, his contract will not allow us just to dump him as Liverpool know his problems..

[winalotto]

I think cabin fever has well and truly set in with some people. To think that some people would turn their nose up at Joe Cole is unbelievable.

Its quite embarrassing really..

[Ginger Ninja]

HAHAHAHA!!! smith over cole? bloody madness!
jeffro/weare/mellow, not having a go, but can you name a player better than cole who we can realistically get?

[qprjim]

Looking at it from a risk/reward scenario, 45k a week (if of course we are willing to actually pay it) for a player of Joe Cole's calibre, is an absolute no-brainer imo

[SammyKojoe]

Winalot/ slob I think you are getting carried away here. You tell me what kind of form he shown in the last 3 seasons and i'll let you know if any of it excites me. I look forward to your reply.

With the greatest respect, was it not you who said something like " Its like paying for an Aston Martin and getting a fiesta " Or similar to do with regard to our transfer policy.

Well Joe Cole is more Aston Martin like than anyone else we are ever going to sign! DJ Campbell is just about a Ford Mondeo.

Joe Cole has 10x more top flight experience, ability and creativity than anyone in our side. He would be a major asset under Warnock.

[winalotto]

Still awaiting a response Weare, grown up of course. Can't do it without abusing no?

[qprjim]

Well we werent willing to pay 20k odd for Routledge were we

Pre Fernandes. Hypothetically this could be one of the targets Warnock identified when they had that 'positive chat' in Italia

[Ginger Ninja]

please, can someone name a player, in that position, who we could realistically get, and is better than joe cole?

[Morris]

Dont shoot me down but my daughter who works in club shop has texted me saying Cole is there, been told by fella called Danny Edwards dont know who he is think something to do with kids in the community trust, as i said only passing what been told

Tell her to whack her phone out and take a picture if she see's him again.

[Jeffro]

So you'd all like Joe cole if Fernandes agreed to pay his 90k a week wage yeah??

[Morris]

If it's a loan which it would be, we wouldn't be paying anywhere near £90k a week.

[winalotto]

Here's one weare, you say the last three years, what about the previous 10 years or so??
Do you think you just suddenly lose your ability??
He played in World Cups , Champions League, when you dont get a run in a side, and your trying to gain fitness it is very hard to regain your old levels of sharpness and form, do you not think a run at say Rangers could help both party's??

[Jeffro]

If it's a loan which it would be, we wouldn't be paying anywhere near £90k a week.

Ok say we agreed to half which Liverpool will want as a minimum.. 45 k a week for a player that has done f all for 2 years..
Some people wanna see this club back in administration at this rate.

Much rather break the bank for a Joey Barton than Cole.

You really wouldn't want him? Honestly?

It would be a risk, but if he was fit, what a player he would be for us.


We should include a clause that means if he gets a bad injury the loan is terminated and he goes back to Liverpool.
