The appointment of Graeme Souness was a strange one to say the least. On the positive side he will certainly give Dyer and the rest of his bling crew the kick up the arse they deserve for the way they disrespected Bobby. On the other hand his dodgy transfer record and history of falling out with players fills me with horror. Hopefully Freddie won't let him spend much money (we only really need to be improving the defence for now anyway). I hope he is not gonna stunt the development of Steven Taylor and Matty Pattison.
What really gets me about this though is the involvement of Pro Active. It's quite clear Freddie Shepherd is doing what's best for himself and his family instead of the club, the bloody crooked fat cunt. Freddie's son works for Pro Active and so he has got a chunk of the money from this. All the players we sign seem to be in some way linked to Pro Active. I wish the FA would look into this and put an end to it immediately. It's also rumoured the reason we got Nicky Butt so cheaply was part of some conspiracy that we were helping them to get Wayne Rooney by probing his availability for Man Utd to come in and get him.
Marcelinho was a Gullit signing by the way and so was Dyer. Viana is still a good player, just Bobby kinda wrecked him by not playing him, and so he never adapted to the pace of the Premiership. With Souness in charge I don't think Viana will be coming back from his loan spell with Sporting Lisbon.
