What an over the top jizz cock.

Matt was already a talismanic player pre Branfoot, and scored some of his most iconic goals during the Branfoot era, as a direct response to being dropped. I get your general point but the comparison is flawed. Maybe Peter Crouch under Redknapp is closer to it.

Still seems massively unlikely to me.

Well, they do. If he signs an extension he won't go anywhere this window. And he'll get a pay rise which will be worth more than a rats arse.

That is stretching a comparison to absolute breaking point right there.

The world can be divided into two: All us "Gashton Apologists" on one side, and Alpine on the other.

What an effing wastrel.

What will your excuse be if he is back this weekend? Oh, I think we know already. The mating call of the Alpine weasel. "It's easy in hindsight".

So the "ineptitude" accusation can be nicely squared at.....

The fact that the "offer" has leaked out makes me think this may be the case. Orrr, he signs it for this season but with a release clause in it.

Yep.

It's very rare to have a Bale/Suarez level transfer where the player is sold against his will, so it's a bit of a false argument. In fact, if we were skint it would be more likely we would have to sell, say, Shaw to somewhere he didn't want to go, who happened to offer more and we were obliged to take it.

If we had no Alpine we wouldn't have this.

Spoken like a true "Gashton apologist" whatever the eff that is.

I think the point of having someone like Veho I'd they will support us wherever we are in the table. If we are scrapping at the bottom end of the table then we would still have that local firm proud to be involved. For as long as we have the current owners I think we can say no to the Wongas of this world.

This. I'd like to think we did turn down any loan sharks/web casino/betting brands.

Also, kid gloves treatment is effing fantastic when he's been given the pre -agreed time off in relation to how his country performed in the tournament. No kid gloves, no special treatment. I imagine Alps will be back to say that he never ever said kid gloves and I've resorted to making stuff up.

Disagree. He's a swivel eyed nutcase.

LOL. Forgot about that. What a lunatic.

The Daily Telegram is a nothing Twitter account. So a lovely fantastical "OUR CLUB IS SH IT" conspiracy rant from you my swivel eyed chum but based on absolutely nothing. Not that has never stopped you before, of course. Keep ranting.

That's better.

I think we said before, it's The Kat Pack.

He did say he was busy and he would do it later. I think that meant sometime after the Tokyo Olympics.

Got to say I can't remember a single thing Samuels ever said about Cortese. Until I read those last two posts I probably would have lumped him in with the fawning acolytes the short legged one managed to smarm up to.

This. They both feel like decent replacements, rather than obvious down grades - these ain't Kerry Dixons. Let's hope one of them becomes a genuine Saints star like the other two.
