AlCapone 7,678 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Is their chairman (Dein) not best pals with SDM? They probably feel sorry for Us.Dein left Arsenal nearly 4 years ago, as for the OP..I wouldnt read anything into the loan deal having anything to do with Bouggy or Shagger. Arsenal are aiming to be in the top 3 or 4 clubs in Europe in the next year, neither player could take them any where near that level. Bouggy is no better than the 4 centre halves alraedy there.

caseyjones 3,009 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Was there an English Club we gave strips to?I have a vague memory of hearing about it but I can't remember any details...Me too. Villa could be the one, but I'm not sure. There were Scots at a lot of the English clubs in the early days of the game. The crest and the motto would suggest some sort of link.

The crest and the motto would suggest some sort of link.Aye could be, certainly a big Scottish influence in the early days at Villa. Their logo is a Rampant Lion, with 'Prepared' the motto underneath - sounds a bit familiar....I once heard their traditional strip colours come from Rangers and Hearts.
