Remember he has his own articles in Zoo or Nutts (cant remember) so he is bound to be being paid for that!

Having said that, maybe we should put in a cheaky low bid for him in January, just to remind everyone including Bentley, just how well he has done since going to Spuds and how much his value will have dropped since leaving!

It is a bit of a mess really. Its obvious Damian Comolli is to blame for most of it. His buying when Jol was in charge was very poor and during the summer selling Berb had to be done, but Keane!? Both their star strikers? and then hardly replacing them.

But sacking Comolli is not going to change the team, or their attitude and work rate, only Ramos can do that.

Must admit it is very amusing and apart from newcastle, I cant think of a set of big headed, sorry, 'big club' fans I would want out of the premiership more.

Although I don't think they will, but imagine the sort of mess they would be in, all those big headed players including Bently wouldn't stay around would they? :P

I just wish they panic buy in January, and then still go down. We should hawk them Mokoena for £4m. Even if they sack Ramos, they'd be £10-15m worse off, which would be amusing, despite the fact they'll eventually get out of relegation trouble. Worst start for 96 years apparently. And who'd have thought the level Bentley ended up at would be hovering around the relegation zone. I've even read a letter or two saying that Hoddle should come back and be given money, unlike the last time he was manager (or so they say). Is this the same Hoddle that took them to Europe after winning the Worthington Cup (sic)?

I really wish they will stay down there and go down, but I think they won't.

Remember, Levy made sure Charlton didn't get their payments for Bent when it turned out he was not as good as he hoped he was so Bentley could find he is subject to a Chairman's instruction not to be played unless he is 100% on form.

There could be an element linked to England caps and/or Spurs' European qualification and winning things; Charlton missed out by not spotting Spuds had added the word FA to the clause about winning a domestic cup.

I can't help it. I feel sorry for him. I know all the rubbish about his transfer and I've seen that interview. I know he got too big for his boots and didn't play as well as he could for us at the end when we really needed big performances from him. Even so I feel sorry for him, because I actually found him a nice guy on the couple of occasions when I met him and I really wanted to see him displace Beckham on england's right. He made his choice and in some ways it serves him right that Spurs are doing so badly and he's out of favour there, but there's still a bit of me that thinks his agent should be sacked for doing that deal.

Bentley should of showed us more respect - its as simple as that.

Because he didnt, he deserves what he gets - The Blackburn Curse

Oh, I know he deserves it but it doesn't stop me wishing he didn't. Don't get me wrong I want him and Spurs together to fail miserably but I'm too nice a person to feel really vindictive.

Why should his agent be sacked for doing that deal? His agent can advise him but he can only do what Bentley wants him to and didn't Bentley say that he had "worked his nuts off to get that transfer"?

Stop that right now! If that gets about we'll never get anybody to sign other than 4th Div players and has-beens!............ :rolleyes:

You are just too nice for your own good Gumboots. It serves the ungrateful barsteward right in my opinion. He must know that the Rovers fans are revelling in his demise and that too must really get up his arrogant little nose. :P
