What am I apologising for? Just because people don't have the cynical grey view on it like you do doesn't make them an apologist.Not really. I`m the dude who thinks Levy/ENIC have fucked about, dragged there heels and would love to see a new stadium built on the premise it make lots of long term profit for their own shady organisation. Whatever they do is in their own long term interests, which differ from those of the football club I love. As far as I`m concerned, I never wanted the "best stadium in Europe". just a bigger, better one than the current WHL. Had we not fucked around with stratford etc, we may have already been playing in it, rather than submitting a new set of plans in another month or two. Anyway, didnt take much to drag the first Levy apologist out, did it.
The bookies still have him at odds on to go to Newcastle.
... for what it is worth ... the bookies think he is more likely to joing Chelsea than us.Just confirmed Mitrovic so that seems unlikely.

Just saw Pjanic score this against City..So now that we have sold 4 CM's this summer, are there any good CM's left with the possibility of us buying them?
Surely we cant come out of the window with just Bentaleb, Mason, Alli and Dembele that play in that position.
Sigh.Pjanic as an AM
Never said he was tragic. I quite like Stambouli.
But, he never played. Getting good money for squad filler is fine.
Maybe Poch has enough faith in Dele Alli that he'd rather use Stambouli's prospective minutes on an exciting young talent.
Newcastle have also confirmed Mitrovic today. Would guess they are not after another striker.
Just for the record, I asked for Benji to play time and again last season, and complained many a time about Poch not using him. To say otherwise is either careless, a lack of paying attention, or a loaded agenda. No surprise if any or all of the above are correct in some cases
So often last season our midfield was being run through at will, and we were crying out for a player like Benji, but no, he wasn't 'Poch's player', so he didn't use him.
Well now he's gone to a bigger club, playing CL football, and challenging for League honours, and doubtless under Poch we'll be scrabbling around trying to get that coveted Europa League spot.
As I say I'm glad for Benji, he's well out of a club that bought and then disregarded him.
Why don't you follow him as well, glory-hunting cuntJust for the record, I asked for Benji to play time and again last season, and complained many a time about Poch not using him.
