TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2005 Good lad. This could go on to be the biggest thread in TSM history.. as all the other 'big' threads get archived or 'classicised' at some point, there's nothing 'classic' about this thread.. and it's continuous. It'll get going again in September. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: Seeing Andy Cole about to move again reminds me of the failure to not include a sell on fee in the sale to Newcastle, what a stupid Board we had then.

k thx 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2005 Well, looks like Wright-Phillips is going to Chelsea to sit on the bench. He'd be far better served going to Arsenal IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deancoles 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2005 I think Arsenal preferred Baptista and Hleb for a few million more, I'm guessing they had a 20 million transfer budget so with the vieira money they should be able to get a good Gk and a couple of French/African youth players(worked with Clichy and Toure) Edit: Nice signing, if Steve Cotterill wanted him that's good enough for me. http://www.bcfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/...~687445,00.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2005 Sign-ups for the Fantasy Premier League thing we had going last year are apparantly up and running again. IIRC, I did pretty well last season...are we doing it again this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanhalen 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2005 Yeah plus my team wont be full of Saints players again like they always end up being, so my team should do a little better this year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deancoles 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2005 http://www.bcfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/...~687793,00.html Bridges,Ward and Goater would all fit the criteria, I doubt Gillespie is very happy with this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2005 Well, at least Wright-Phillips won't be coming to Hillsborough to destroy us...it is a shame though, I think we've lost another potentially great England regular, if he justs sits on his arse earning shitloads without playing he could lose it.

Vanhalen 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2005 So we sold Crouch for £7 million, and I really dont care, I just cant see what all the hype is about, this guy two years ago wasnt good enough for Villa, we were pissed that we bought him for £2 million, and now hes gone for £7 million, oh well, thats twice we've fucked the scousers over, £6 million for Beattie and £7 million for Crouch, ha idiots Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Decemberists 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2005 Don't know why anyone would want Michael Bridges... does anyone know what his record is in the last FIVE years? It's.... It's.... Wait for it.... This is Michael Bridges, remember, the 'next big thing' at one point... In the last five years Michael Bridges can boast of.... 62 Games - 1 Goal Scott fucking Dobie has a better recprd than that for fucks sake. I know he's had injuries, but Jesus Christ that's appauling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2005 Well, we've lost out on Iain Hume, which means we still need a creative forward, and Blades have Neil Shipperly! Warnock's only been after him for about 10 years. Still, my Blades fan mate has spoken of the need for a 'fat cunt' in the attack, so he's happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2005 Agreed. Don't really see who else is in a bad position at this stage, the pressures on Martin Jol to get into Europe, and I think Coleman could always be offered a better gig, but other than that I think most are secure for the season.

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted July 26, 2005 Yes! We've got Eagles from Man Utd for the season, and are apparently close to terms with Paul Shaw! That'll do for me. Edit: I've now seen 'Warnock' on DVD, with extras, and I sitll think it's the best piece of television I've seen in ages. After the cup tie where they drew at Highbury: 'We've done great today lads, a replay was the least we deserved after the disallowed goal etc...But what I really want to do, what I really want from this is to beat Plymouth.' Cue 3-0 loss. Brilliant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
