TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 It has come to my (and TheFranchise's) attention that many people here support division one teams, so i figured we needed a thread to discuss fixtures etc, and to gloat. So here it is. Cardiff's first league game: 9 August v Rotherham. This thread's nearly four years old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Back to the present, we've signed Ivan Sproule for an Undisclosed fee on a 3 year deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 Yeah, it was worse than that pic initially. Now most of the pitch is visible. After relaying the fucker, its all the changing rooms and stuff that need sorting out, obv they are all contaminated with sewage. This is perfect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 Well, the general idea was to get a fast striker to play along side Howard, and I guess Earnshaw fits the bill perfectly. He does have the honour of being the only player to score a hattrick in leagues two, one, the championship, the premiership, the FA and League Cup and international level. So he can obviously put the ball in the net. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

k thx 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2007 http://www.sundaymirror.co.uk/sport/footba...98487-19387234/ You see more takeover rumours than transfer ones these days. You have to agree with their reasoning though. If they take Bristol to the Premiership, that's a whole untapped market of fans in the west of the country (similar to Cardiff).

Guest CookieMueller Report post Posted July 4, 2007 New to this thread. Hammer fan. Good news for us yesterday. Now I just gotta hold on to the sliver of hope that Tevez stays with us. I also have a soft spot for Colchester, but Sheringham? Honestly? Guess they need it with the mass exodus of strikers going on over the summer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

k thx 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 Pompey signed /nugent and John Utaka, a Nigerian striker, today. Hopefully some good talent to team up with Benjani, Lua Lua and Kanu (if he stays) for the new season. Maybe a left back and a speedy winger, and we're set. Just hope we don't sell anyone.

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2007 I think Pompey are gonna do well this year. We've revealed that we've been having takeover talks with a former Everton shareholder since jan. Nice to hear SOMETHING, as Dave Allen basically assured everyone we'd be getting taken over this summer and this is pretty much the first that's been said about it.

deancoles 0 Report post Posted July 12, 2007 We've signed Michael Mcindoe from Wolves to fill the Left Winger gap, with Kightly and Jarvis his 1st team chances were obviously limited. No link or rumours at all about him, hope his attidude has improved, he left Yeovil for Doncaster a few years ago because of a clash with GJ and the same happened at Doncaster.
