  1. Sad to see but I guess if the man who knows him as well as anyone won't play him then his career is over.
  2. Any win will do. To be honest, I think days of double figures are long gone. Once teams get 5 up these days they revert to training session pace, keep ball, etc, instead of continuing to go for goals. Not ruthless enough.
  3. Good, proven, signing, unlike the one yesterday.
  4. I'm mystified why suddenly this is a good window for us? A week ago, the signing of Goss attracted dogs abuse and the only other signing so far is Murphy. We haven't seen either of them play in anything resembling a football match but suddenly everything is ok. Dont get me wrong, I'm liking the optimism and positivity but the lurch from one opinion to another is mind boggling.
  5. Fucking shit hole. Shit club, shit fans, shit ground, just fucking shit.
  6. Hi. Yeah I used to go about then. Used to drink with Derek and others in the Mariners Bar. He knows every bugger. We picked him up yesterday just as he was buying a bacon buttie. He was chattering away that much he had his first bite 30 minutes later and complained because it was cold. ?
  7. To be honest, I think virtually all managers are 5 games away from the sack these days. I honestly don't know why, for example, any manager who cares about his reputation would want the Swansea job. Whoever picks their managers definitely should be fired.
  8. Yeah, his deal is until June. I suspect that if they do stay up (and I'm confident they will for the reasons you suggest) he will get a 2 year deal. It's a big opportunity for him because there is potential at that club but he will have to be less cautious than he has been before.
  9. Ally used to miss plenty too. It happens.
  10. Excellent prospect. Hard working, mobile, hungry, aggressive, hates losing, scowls constantly, never hides and doesn't let misses put him off. He is a very promising player.
  11. Was at a game yesterday with Derek Spence who was a Northern Ireland team mate of Jimmy Nicholl. He thinks the world of Jimmy Nicholl and reckons he will be a tremendous asset to us. Had some great stories which helped me get over the defeat for my local amateur club. Said he once had a trial with Rangers too as a kid but Rangers opted for Derek Parlane instead.
  12. Just too early for me. Everton fans were similarly effusive about Fat Sam before Xmas but now they are suddenly playing as they did under Koeman and have gone 6 games without a win I believe. If West Ham finish mid table I'll agree he has done a job there but quite frankly they could still go down yet so far too early for me to pass judgement.
  13. I don't think David Moyes has proved anything at West Ham.
