Finnegan Posted 23 June 2011 Share Posted 23 June 2011 People get that world cup clip all wrong. He's actually crying because he's forgotten the words and he knows what the penalty is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyB Posted 23 June 2011 Author Share Posted 23 June 2011 Theres a bit in today's Mercury. Apparently Masilela is reported as being "close to a move to the Walkers" also. Could be promising. Leicester City in hunt for 'the People's Rooney' Jong Tae-Se Thursday, June 23, 2011, 09:30 Leicester City are chasing the North Korea striker dubbed 'the People's Rooney'. Reports in Japan that City are in the hunt for striker Jong Tae-Se are true. City have also been strongly linked with a move for South Africa left-back Tsepo Masilela. The 26-year-old is currently with Isreali side Maccabi Haifa, but unconfirmed reports in Africa say he is close to a move to the Walkers Stadium. City are said to have already submitted a bid of around £665,000 to Bundesliga 2 side VFL Bochum for Jong. The Japanese-born North Korea international impressed City boss Sven-Goran Eriksson at last year's World Cup finals in South Africa, and Jong has reportedly confirmed that an offer has been made. Eriksson was the manager of the Ivory Coast side that beat North Korea 3-0 in Nelspruit. Although North Korea finished bottom of the group, Jong was picked out as their star performer, and joined Bochum soon after. He has been tagged 'the People's Rooney' because of his hard-working style and stocky physique, similar to Manchester United and England star Wayne Rooney. The 27-year-old Jong scored 10 goals for the German side last season as they went close to securing a return to Bundesliga 1, and Eriksson is a fan of his all-action style. Jong sprung to prominence in Japan's J-League and had a trial at Blackburn Rovers last year before the World Cup. In a pre-World Cup interview with the Guardian, Jong revealed his ambition was to play in England. "I want to play in England," he said. "When I was at high school, Italy's Serie A was the most popular league but, with the help of cable television, I started watching English football and I really enjoyed the stadiums, the atmosphere and the passion." Meanwhile, City may face a bidding war for Bristol City striker Nicky Maynard. An initial bid of between £2.5-£3million has been rejected for the 24-year-old striker, but City's interest remains. However, Nottingham Forest are said to be preparing a £4m bid and there is also interest from Southampton, although the escalating figure could price the Saints out of the running. West Ham United are also said to be monitoring the situation. The Robins have maintained that their club-record signing is not for sale, but if Maynard returns from holiday next weeks and indicates he wants to talk to other clubs, they may have no choice but to sell a player who only has one year left on his contract.

The great thing is Sven has been over there and hob-nobbed with the government already...it didn't go to plan, but this should make up for it, should their boy wonder signs for us! The fans do build to pretty impressive crescendo in that video. Maybe we might go on tour in next pre-season and see it first hand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1964FOX Posted 23 June 2011 Share Posted 23 June 2011 Take notes Fosse Boys! I have already contacted them, they will be joining us at the Real Madrid match to wave their flags and stare at the stewards. It's going to cost me a bit to kit them out with their uniform in our colours so if anyone wants to donate let me know. I've also convinced the bloke you see at the end to come as well. He's a human flare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lineker's Left Foot Posted 23 June 2011 Share Posted 23 June 2011 He was on loan with us for part of last season, plays for Everton currently, he's a demon in the air. We've been linked quite heavily with him, you should probably read up on him, he's quite well known. I meant we've probably forgotten about him now.. at least I have.
