Are you possessed by the spirit of Wullie all of a sudden 157352[/snapback] No, Wullie has already stated that he will once again be devastated by a signing like this. I think he would be a great signing, but IF this is complete bollocks then the vague press comment is intentionally misleading in order to string the fans along, which IMO is out of order. Particularly in light of the speed with which they've denied other transfer links in recent weeks. 157358[/snapback] You sound like I commend your ambition in attempting to sign Englands newly retired captain, but if you are merely string the fans along in a cheap attempt to bolster season ticket sales I would have to say OI SHEPHERD NO........ 157368[/snapback] You sound like you're completely missing the point of what I'm saying. Which would presumably make you Tim Nice But Dim.

Read in Borat's voice, this is superb.

If it is bullshit and the two being there at the same time is purely coincidental then it is a fucking disgrace that the club aren't issuing a denial, especially when you consider how quick they were to issue a denial when there was potential for people being disappointed by a bid for Hasselbaink. Shepherd treating the fans like mugs in the most blatant fashion if this is the case.

I'm getting my ticket in my normal seat because, based on the organisation skills displayed so far in the thread , it's not worth waiting to see if we all get them together.

I was in 5ive. Beat that you bastards. http://www.scott-robinson.co.uk/ I was also portrayed by Jason Donovan on Neighbours.

That's what making me think it's bollocks. If you wanted to keep it quiet, meet him in a hotel room or something (oo-er). Don't sit out in the open somewhere like Claridges. We'll see though....

Heskey going for £5.5m is bad news for us. Forget getting Defoe for £8m if Heskey is worth £5.5m.

I really dont know what to make of this. So FF was seen with Posh while Becks snuck out another way? Oh I see .... that because Posh and FF seen together is normal.... As for us needing another iconic figure. Bollocks. I dont care if we sign Mr Nowhere from Nowhere land so long as he can play football and ideally upfront (Thoug, I admit he may be a tad small and iirc has a tendancy to fall through holes). As for the actual player, I just dont see how we need him? As already said, what can he do that Nobby cannot? Ok, perhaps you could rotate them as we dont know what Nobby's plans are (one rumour had him going back home, another that this may have been his last season), but Beckham, really? Looked v poor in the WC though Im not sure how he would be at club level. Baffling this one.... Oh, and Link 157250[/snapback] Lampard and Gerrard looked very poor at the world cup tbf, so that means nowt. The Beckham - Solano comparisons are very flattering towards Nobby btw. I love Nobby, but if you gave me a straight choice I think I'd have Beckham in the team ahead of him. I dunno about this one - as a player I'd have him at the club, my only concern is the financial impact of the signing. We'll see though - it might well be a load of bollocks. If it is, expect Roeder to quash the rumours later on today.

The ref from last night had a decent game I thought. Let the game flow and didn't go daft with the cards. Plus he pretty much refused to be taken in by any of Portugal's bollocks. Not too sure about this Elizondo bloke.

He's not. He's signed for Inter (I think!?) from Palermo this summer for £4m. Bargain by the look of him. 157050[/snapback] Your not wrong Clicky 157054[/snapback] Erm: 157077[/snapback] Erm: Done deal now apparently. According to his Wikipedia page anyway.

18 year old centre half from Cambridge United has been training with us for the past week. It's on Cambridge's official site, so he could be one of our new signings. Kirkey might know about him cos I think he goes to the odd Cambridge United game?? Anyway, I like the idea of Roeder buying youngsters on the cheap, assuming he can turn them into decent players.

Why would anyone consider bringing him back 156908[/snapback] Beggars belief tbh.

Ra-ra girls...got to love them! As for the pool table, it needs upgrading. I mean, we found a lightbulb jammed in there.. 156925[/snapback] Pocket lighting's all the rage down in Manchester.

Class!

Laugh now lads. It's not gonna be as funny when you're all on Youtube.

My mam's got a digital video camera like.

Pirlo looks class, but he'd never come here. Not after the WC he's having.

Rooney. But I still reserve the right to despise Ronaldo.

I still had every reason to enjoy the world cup, something that couldn't be said about every participating nation. Fair result tbh. Italy were the better team, just to concede those goals in the dying minutes was cruel. Oh, and how much I do dislike Twaterazzi and Twattuso is beyond believe. I only can hope France is going to win it now, because I just don't want either Italy or Portugal to win it. 156538[/snapback] Aye I'm with you on the France thing. I think Germany just got found out a bit - the spirit and the players playing above their game as they have most of the way through the tournament wasn't enough to get past the Italians who stepped up a gear from all their previous performances. As for goals in the dying minutes being cruel, you wanna try going out on penalties.

Where's Isegrim btw? It's not often the Germans get to feel like we did in Euro 96, and I want to know how he's taken it.

Aye fair play to him. Good effort. Apparently he's in the top 50 in terms of the amount of time it took him to do it. Mind there can't be that many people that have done it, but still....

Happy Birthday my chubby little friend!
