J.Lisemore Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 I don't think we should resign ourselves just yet to Chambers playing left back. i agree...give the man a chance
Daggers Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 Hughes and Elvis, please. Any two that haven't been given squad numbers - at least the rest have done enough in training to warrant a number. I'd like the crap that still can't make an effort to be the first out the door.
Tommeh Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 Hughes and Elvis, please. Leave Elvis be, every club needs a fans favourite, someone to make a cameo in the last 5 minutes, please the crowd and make them want to come back next week. Give him this season then by christmas he will be a cult hero, the new Benjamin, something was lost when he left the club and I demand it back! De vries tried but his loan moves didn't help and Joe Hamill was let go before he was allowed to demonstrate his full ability. Fvck success this club needs entertainment and comedy and elvis can provide it

Tommeh Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 You've not seen Sappleton yet have you? Unless he was the baggage dude at the airport yesterday, then No. why what's his beef? Damn that reminds me, I never saw Joeb at either of my flights
lildave3 Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 Unless he was the baggage dude at the airport yesterday, then No. why what's his beef?Damn that reminds me, I never saw Joeb at either of my flights He's our new cult hero. He's mine anyway. He's fooking massive, and runs like he's been ****ed up the arse.
Fez of Mahrez Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 He's our new cult hero. He's mine anyway. He's fooking massive, and runs like he's been ****ed up the arse. Yeah but enough about Filbertway, what do you think of Sappleton? (That'll teach him to criticisimify my diction...)

Thracian Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 I don't think we should resign ourselves just yet to Chambers playing left back. I felt it seemed a bit pointed taking Sheehan off but isn't Mattock in an international event at the start of the season and, if so, MA might be keen to ensure Sheehan doesn't get suspended.

If Mattock is needed for the first team, he won't be going anywhere.
General Smuts Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 He's our new cult hero. He's mine anyway. He's fooking massive, and runs like he's been ****ed up the arse. Sappleford for president!
lildave3 Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 Sappleford for president! Who the fock is Sappleford?
Thracian Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 God I hope it's Elvis. Sounds like we have had a sight more chance of winning if he'd played - with his speed and energy - than the strikers who did. It didn't sound from the report as if we were peppering their goal with shots. Anyway if Barton says people will be popping champagne we should expect that Douglas, Hammond, DeVries, Maybury, Hughes and Porter will be leaving. For me I'd be as happy with: Douglas, Maybury, Hughes, Kisnorbo, DeVries, Fryatt, Cort, Newton, and Nielsen but that won't be cos three of those have only just signed.

He may be fast, but can't play football. That one vital problem
Thracian Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 Elvis is pants!!!!He may be fast, but can't play football. That one vital problem Of all those players Elvis would be the hardest to mark . No question. It doesn't make him a world beater but then the others aren't world beaters either.
Toby or not Toby Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 I felt it seemed a bit pointed taking Sheehan off but isn't Mattock in an international event at the start of the season and, if so, MA might be keen to ensure Sheehan doesn't get suspended. I spoke to his dad before the Quorn game and he said they are trying to get him out of it so that his is available for the first game of the season.
MC Prussian Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 There is going to be 2 signings for definite this week! I haven't got a source as such, just various people at the club were saying today (Cobbo and Scowy also witnessed this )who they are i couldn't tell you... but definitely another midfielder I'm losing my mind with all those new signings... Someone please help me! Can't we hear more news about other players leaving instead?
Thracian Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 I'm losing my mind with all those new signings... Someone please help me!Can't we hear more news about other players leaving instead? There's a lot to be said for that. Far too many people competing for some positions and not enough for others is making for a lot of wasted match time. Where's the purpose in Odhiambo playing seven minutes?. The bloke scores a smashing goal to lift his confidence and then gets seven minutes to deflate him again. Shades of Cadamarteri! How can real understanding be developed in a team that is being messed around all the time and how can a fluid rhythm be developed with so many stoppages?. We're shaping up for 30-odd members of a first team squad - that's two full teams plus 8! If we're not careful too many ingredients will ruin the taste of the punch.

It didn't sound from the report as if we were peppering their goal with shots. You don't get any more speed and energy from Hammond than you do from Campbell and Hume - and the only thing getting peppered if Elvis had been up front would be Mrs Dalziel at number 36's conservatory windows.
General Smuts Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 Who the fock is Sappleford? Go to the Batracer 4 thread from a few days ago. I called you Sappleford instead of Stapleford. Was hilarious
filbertway Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 Yeah but enough about Filbertway, what do you think of Sappleton?(That'll teach him to criticisimify my diction...) :w00t: Touché. P.S I've not seen SappletON in action, but I'm a fan.
Blue Bob Posted 28 July 2007 Posted 28 July 2007 I am pleased that MM has gone public about wanting more players as I am bored of the existing rumours like McLeod. This will give all the journalists and football rumours that bit of encouragement to make a whole load of new rumours that arent true.
Zingari Posted 29 July 2007 Posted 29 July 2007 i just hope if we do sign anyone they of a standard that will be definite names in the starting line-up ;
teblin Posted 29 July 2007 Posted 29 July 2007 Of all those players Elvis would be the hardest to mark . No question. It doesn't make him a world beater but then the others aren't world beaters either. Though you can let him have the ball because you know he won't do anything with it.
