The Decemberists 0 Report post Posted June 18, 2005 The Sun are pretty accurate most of the time. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I really don't undertstand your Sun love. I always thought that only people with 3 working brain cells read that particular paper. Although you are Sheep so maybe that explains it Not sure if this counts as 'silly' but the Evening Post said we were BOUND to CERTAINLY sign Tes Bramble WITHOUT DOUBT and that our Chief Exec was tying up the deal as they wrote. When our Chief Exec was asked about this his reply was " erm, without meaning to be rude to the lad, but who the hell is Tes Bramble?" Last summer we were linked with John Hartson though, which certainly counts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Decemberists 0 Report post Posted June 22, 2005 He was probably Burnley's best player last season. Attacking full-back. Should be more than good enough for the other Scottish teams, but whether he's good enough for to play in Europe for you I'm not sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted June 22, 2005 Well, looks like we've finally signed Park Ji-Sung from PSV for £3.9m, barring a failed medical or whatever. Always nice to see a good shirt selle...I mean...good player, of course...sign for the club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Decemberists 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2005 Forest are 5/1 Favourites for the title at William Hills. I forget what the odds are for promotion of any sort, but it's embarrassingly short. I don't like us being favourites. Too much pressure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deancoles 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2005 At least it's not us, last couple of years we've been favourites and haven't performed. Our odds are pretty stupid as well, blame the Stewart deal for that, the main contenders seem to be Forest,us,Huddersfield and Tranmere.Personally I think Oldham being below Walsall and Swindon in the odds is a joke, Swindle have lost their only bit of quality while Oldham have Moore,Wellens and could get Beckett which would easily put them as one of the better teams in the league. Edit: Here's a look at the bigger name bookies and their odds for L1, when the scorers come out we should have Lita,Brooker and Stewart in the top 10 if there's any justice. http://online-betting-guide.oddschecker.co...902x&sid=632736 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lawlerm Report post Posted June 25, 2005 Best thing to do is back the 8 league winners in England and Scotland in an accumulator. Gives you something to look out for at the weekends with other results and stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deancoles 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2005 They are a pretty good team, they should easily finish mid table L1, a couple of astute signings and they could be playing you next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2005 We signed Gillingham's utility left back. Huzzah. Sad to see James Quinn go, that was a royal fuckup by everyone involved. And Shefki effing Kuqi is in the prem. That defies belief. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
