Lee On Solent Saint

We have had countless opportunities to bring in an upgrade on him over the past two seasons. Quite why we haven't is totally beyond me.

Don't get all this head not in the right place to play. If they can't get out on the field to play the game that they are supposed to love its absolutely pathetic.

Yep. Would hate to see him just get the odd cup game and a few minutes sub appearances in the league

Wouldn't hurt to ask

I guess it's too much to hope that they loan him back to us for the season

Probably because we always used to beat them at The Dell quite regularly on the 80s and 90s

Not so much wore, but for every home game in the late 80s and early 90's, we always took an inflatable banana with us to The Dell. Most Match of the Day highlights you'll see us at the front in the Milton end waving it around like proper twats. Also wouldn't recommend giving it large to away fans after a big win. The days when the buses ran along Hill Lane, we had just beaten Palace and a group of fans were walking back to the station. We were on the top deck giving them bantz, which they didn't really appreciate. Obviously buses stop at bus stops, que about 15 pissed off Palace fans trying to get on the bus. Thankfully the driver had the good sense not to let them on.

Was rather hoping he would say that to Lyanco and Bree instead

You think? I disagree.

Sorry to hear you disagree with that. Not entirely surprising though

Wouldn't be adverse to that. Going to take a hit on them if we want them gone anyway.

Keep on saying this, but we should just get flat fees for anyone we sell.

Anyone who thinks JWP isn't one of our greatest players in the last 35 years is crazy

Absolutely bang on. Respected him as a player and a man. Not felt like this about a player since Le Tiss left if I am being honest.

Does the good news apply to this window or the next

Surely that's the reality of our situation. Even when we were in the Premier League we never kept hold of anyone long enough to truly benefit from them. Le Tiss was the execption along with perhaps Dodd and Benali. You can trace that right back to Shearer, Kenna and Flowers leaving for Blackburn. Ultimately every club is a selling club if the deal is right.

I guess I thought he might shown us a little something given that he has been with us since he was 8. He wasn't just any player, he was club captain and general poster boy. Not sure I would call him a international player anymore. He's not making an England squad again.

You think Smallbone is good enough? Fair enough if you do. Haven't seen him do much at all really. Watched a bit of Stoke last year, he hardly pulled up any trees

Never really rated him to be honest. Moving to Sheffield Utd is hardly a great career move anyway. Will be back in the Championship next season.

Hopefully ones that don't play in blue and from the city side of Manchester

Was hoping the ones that were being encouraged to move were the shit ones

Great personal insult there. I bow to your superior comebacks. Legend

You can ridicule me as well if you like. I thought he would stay too. Just if it makes you feel better

Arsenal keeper Turner signed for Forest. Was way too good to be a number 2. Had we recognised that last season, we might have stayed up.

Agreed. Think we will miss him a lot more than we realise. Probably the only player I was really bothered about losing along with KWP. I thought he would have given us until January to see what the season was panning out like. Fee for me is 10m to light. Should have stuck out for 40m and not bothered about the add ons.
