He might be quite pleased about not playing!

We could discuss whether this means that Redheugh has been telling the truth all along about not only his employment, but also the americans. Its noted that Trinity Mirror who print the Chron, also print the Daily Mail in the North East, However Redheugh is just a bit player so best not to dwell. More importantly even the most cynical of cynics must agree that something is going on. Whether you choose to believe its one big hoax by Ashley or Fake bids by Sheard, something is definately going on and in particular, involving this law firm. Now I would assume that you dont start dropping the names of law firms into your story unless you are pretty sure of your facts. Whether this will all lead to something, who knows, however if I was Ashley and after recent events, I would push the sale through in order to concentrate fully on avoiding jail. Personally I got past the 'couldn't give a fuck stage' several weeks ago. This saga is just boring now, we've been promised so many times something was about to happen, that things were going on behind the scenes, that the paperwork just needed to be signed, only to find nothing happens. We're more likely to find out when Llambias has streaked across SJP with his pants on his head again than what is really going on with this "sale". I'll believe it when I see an official announcement, but not before.

This thread is the ginger stepchild of this board

The joke is that clearly nobody's even made a formal offer yet. What a load of shite.

Good on him. Keepin' it real, ayyyy

Gee whizz! Hasn't the guy been discredited as ITK? I have to say I'd be pleasantly surprised now if Ashley sells; you'd expect him to hang on in the hope of getting promoted. Unless he's got add-ons built into the sale agreement. Not sure, they seem to "believe" on there. I agree tho that if the sale does go through there will be add ons. That doesn't mean it's credible. I think people are more cynical on here, possibly because the posters are more experienced, and that position has been borne out by what's happened.

*hovers his finger over the "Fucking Ban Him" button * Yeah, I get that every now and again - there is a story to my screen name, which I generally have to trot out every time someone makes the above comment. I think we're on about the 4th / 5th incarnation of this board now, after a couple of db crashes, domain problems etc. I originally posted as 'Magpie' as that's a screenname I always used. During one of the board crashes, some other poster registered as that name before I did and so I had to think of a new name. I have a cat called Maggie, who likes to sit on my desk next to my PC when I'm working from home. As I was sat trying to think of a new screen name Maggie was sat on the desk in her usual spot. She got up and walked across the keyboard (something she rarely does 'cos she gets chucked off ther desk for doing so) typing a load of shit into the name field. It gave me the idea for maggiespaws. Shite really and I've often considered changing it for one of my other screen names (cybermag); but maggiespaws is always a name/login that is available and to be honest, it's kind of stuck. Most people (including myself) tend to shorten it to just 'paws'. Oh and AccaDacca, you've just given another great example of why your optimism is blind and unrealistic. The idea that 'if' we get sufficient injuries we can just dip into loans to sort us out and still come up champions is fucking mental frankly. Pass over what you're smoking, I think you need a break. Nearly as stupid as looking round the room and seeing a Christmas Tree Aha. I assumed it was because you had a fairy on top of you at the time careful Fairy nuff

Why was Colo called up early to warm the bench? Tsk.

See, a smarter cover story for a fake injury would've been something virtually impossible to diagnose quantitatively like depression or vertigo. Saying he pulled a groin leads the observer to conclude that he must have been performing some kind of activity to actually injure said groin, and we all know that isn't the case. Well, not on the field of play anyway

I bet Craig will still be hanging around on the secret forum anyway....

I just wrote 6 paragraphs and there was a fucking powercut, I'll try again. Craigs at work It's a good thing it wasn't posted to be fair, there was lots of praise for you, HMHM and a few others, and an in depth look on why he at 33 is so staid, I'm pleased it wasn't posted now to be honest, however I will say this now, I mentioned the "Trent Posse" in it, I will say that Craig did a great job in getting this forum together, it's got better recently, and my basic point was I was the cunt that offered to help fund it, and also Peasepud would be the critical miss to this forum. Every second post he says something funny, Craig puts a few posts up about the late 80s moans about what he perceives as boring threads and gets emotional when people try to have a bit light hearted fun, then accuses some forum members of being inane and boring when the humour in his posts are more derelict than the majority of the districts of the county he resides in, it begs of double standards. I'm yet to see Craig's funny side. I'm pleased my original draft of this never got posted now though to be fair. Craig said a while ago we'll ban you etc you choose what you do, no one will miss you, well other than the old members, and the people you share curries with on the rare occasion you get home to your native town, I don't see what would be missed about you if anything. Yes, it's a good job you replaced the original post with something much less offensive.....

Oh goody. Another acca-dacca-ding-dong thread.

I expect Paddy Kenny takes ephedrine just to get out of bed in the morning. I'm surprised more footballers don't fail drug tests, for both performance enhancing and recreational drugs. Footballers are by and large young, thoughtless and will take what they're given. Maybe they don't get tested a lot?

stupid little dreamer

that fucks that theory then

From Skysports. His hamstring probably thought he'd signed for us

I thought the injury may be fake, so no surprise theere. But who cares? It's not as if he's been any use to the first team anyway, and no manager seemed to rate him. Have we ever signed a Spaniard who wasn't a gutless waste of time and money by the way?

You cant believe someone as famous as him has no-one to keep a leash on him! There's not a lot you can do if someone's as mad as a box of frogs though

Who knows what the truth is? I certainly think the fat clown would now be thinking seriously of hanging on, given the leap in value if we get promoted. As far as Barclays is concerned, I expect what they'd be prepared to lend will be based on a whole load of different things, not only the state fo the club's operating cashflows but also the security for the overdraft, interest rate and the amount of money the owner/new owner puts up themselves. It's probably all smoke and mirrors anyways
