To keep him it was $7.75Mil US Dollars = to just over £5Mil pounds sterling MF and Chucho would not have scored only 3 goals a season whatever you say in your blinkered one dimensional arguement! |

absolutely spot on. we must have one of the worst local rags for sport in the country... when's the last time Tatts had an exclusive? i can't remember, can you? it seems that our local media (that includes radio) is more intent on making sure they don't upset the club for fear of losing their links with the club. rubbish! the club needs the media just as they need the club - a little more decisive journalism wouldn't go amiss... the Mail seems to forget who buys the paper (hint for Tatts, it's not the club!!!). look at one of Tatts latest Q&A's sessions where he intimated we were in for a striker overseas... there's an exclusive for you! perhaps we should try our own 'Tatts exclusives', here's mine: Blues will sign a footballer, from any club, in any one of a number of positions. you heard it here first folks! |

Miccoli has announced at his 10am press conference that he is staying with Palermo. He is not getting extra money from Palermo either, he is staying out of loyalty to the club. Fair play to him. Next target please Alex. http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translate_url?d...TrUrl=Translate Fabrizio Miccoli, taken part in press conference, has spoken about the offer from the Birmingham, he refused. “I have refused an important offer for love of Palermo - Miccoli has said -, I have sent back behind the contract of four years (the captain the extension to the journalists) in order to remain in this square. I am the captain”. http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translate_url?d...TrUrl=Translate Taken part in press conference, Fabrizio Miccoli has spoken about the encounter happened some days before between he and the rosanero president, Maurizio Zamparini. “To Rome with Zamparini I have not spoken about money - Miccoli has said - but wanted to understand other things. I have asked if it still believed in me, if he wanted that you remained to Palermo. It has answered to me of, that I was still the captain. This has been enough to me”. |

GUESS WHAT... In today's mail "TATTS" says blues have cooled intrest in micolli because of his knee. Only yday he said we 'were close.' Tatts is such a liar and he talks a load of rubbish. He knows nothing about the on goings at the club and talks out his behind every single day!! I'm sick of all his rubbish excuses all the time. When the old board left, they should have taken this mug with them! I think I hate him... 81ues |

At the end of the day most of what he writes is pure speculation. McLeish has the policy of not discussing targets until they are signed and sealed so he's hardly likely to tell Tatts what he's doing, no matter what Tatts says to the contrary. He's getting like sky sports news "sky sports news understands..." Does my head in. |

To be fair, Tatts was first with the news about Chucho last summer AND the first to reveal that his knee issues had stalled the deal. He still came and Tatts was again the one to break the news of the loan deal. I'm sure the club only tell him what they want him to know, but this is more than they tell the other journos and he has a good network of footy contacts in and out of the club. So give him a break, eh? |

I'm more peed off with Miccoli & his agent to be honest it seems like Blues done all they could to try and persuade him but it looks like they used Blues :banghead: |

A bit strong mate! Having a bad day or are you always this vindictive and negative? Situations change very quickly and Tatts can only report what he knows.... It is a very fine balance between being a confidante with the Club and personnel and keeping the fans informed.... Because after all Tatts is a fan also and knows that we want to know everything.... But if information is passed to Tatts and not kept in confidence it would be natural for the Club to close the door on him! :break: |

I'm fed up. I've wasted hours and hours of Google time on this Miccoli fella over the last 2 weeks, chasing up every sniff of a report. I feel for Big Eck and the others, they are really trying hard to bring some class to this club but are getting taken for a ride by agents/players. I bet they were getting a positive feedback all this time and then he decides he's staying. Basically using us a hammer against his club. |

Sadly Tatts is not privvy to any behind the scene news, no matter what he may intimate, and I think most Blues fans have known that for quite a while. He writes some interesting stuff and flies the flag for Blues in the Evening Mail, which is all to the good for us all, but for real transfer news (or any breaking news) etc Tatts is out of the loop. The only news that sems to be fed to Tatts is when AM or Blues need to send others in the wrong direction :( If anyone cares to look back over the last couple of years it will be seen that Tatts reports on breaking news are all second hand. It is a great shame that we don't have a local reporter that does have inside knowledge, but perhaps that's the way the football world is nowadays :( If you don't expect any 'breaking news' and just enjoy his overall coverage, then it's not as bad as you seem to feel. What we do have, in Tatts, is someone who does give Blues a lot of local media coverage **thumbup |

Tatts is ok, but Shaun Custis of the sun seems to get more inside info than anyone, he broke the zigic signing a week before anybody else and announced the day of the first bid for nzogbia. pretty impressive. I think Eck asked custis to help him locate his wife's missing luggage in south africa! when it comes down to it shaun custis, andy dunn are the guys who get the exclusives along with tatts. How come andy dunn has 2 lengthy exclusive interviews with eck and the indy got exclusive with carson yeung. where was tatts? |

he was probably elsewhere, I can't imagine any reporter allowing a rival to sit in on one of their exclusives. |

Don't think that would up to Tatts to be able to choose who, or who not, is allowed to interview Blues connections. |

http://www.ilpalermocalcio.it/it/home/ http://www.ilpalermocalcio.it/it/0910/video.jsp?id=20931 "I've not spoken about my future before because I wanted to weigh up the best options for my family," he told the club's official website. "Looking into president Maurizio Zamparini's eyes convinced me to stay. I'm happy. I'm captain of this team. "I worked hard to help us secure European qualification and now I want to play in it." Miccoli was happy with Birmingham's willingness to bring him to the Premier League, adding: "I want to thank Birmingham for their interest." |

yes i trust his word also... unfortunately the reason for that is that his word is usually second hand so he's just reporting what's been reported. this Miccoli deal is a perfect example. yesterday he reports we were close and today he's reporting the player wont be fit until September so were pulling out. confused? Tatts is! let's face it we have a pretty poor local reporter who is more interested in keeping his contacts on his side than he is in breaking news for the people of the city he represents, probably the main reason why most reporters get into journalism! |
