They've just cut off the next part. He goes onto say, "By working hard, and learning to appreciate all that Portsmouth could offer, I could join them in their journey to European glory. My first memory was soon replaced by so many amazing ones."

Time for us all to post we want Lewandowski then. 🙂

Top move. She had been with Lyon for a few trophy winning years and City had a difficult start to the season due to injuries. Barca beat Lyon in the Champions League last season, so she's kept right at the top.

It would be a decent option. I thought he improved in his second game, and he has bags of experience.

Could well be. The other bit of my post about Sport Republic picking up potentially profitable deals, and with a stable of clubs through which to play them, if not directly loan them elsewhere. He may well be playing more than 5 games in 5 years, somewhere in the Sport Republic group. But I know you meant us, so I'll not hold you to that. I'd not have held you to that under any circumstances. 🙂 Identify player with some key/required attributes... add to those through systemised cross club training within the group... use clubs within the group to find best fit for player... play him with a view to making a profit.

As that was under mine, I just meant that although it seems to be an unlikely signing, the recruitment team may well have seen specific things in his game that we need. That's what the very analytics driven clubs are doing. They might think he's already got things we want, and that others can be improved upon. It's a low cost, potentially decent profit signing.

Could be. If we're following the analytics model that Brentford used with Ankersen, it could be they've seen things others have not. So, we may see some low fee left field signings. Or we've got to start our player farm somewhere. 🙂

Kubrick was well known for getting rid of anything not used in the film. But a small section of film evaded this, showing the two cavemen tribes doing warm ups before their battle, with budgie parrying projectiles. Not that I've seen, but we do seem to have got in a job lot of keepers today, so you never know.

This, but extended to when they get the laugh/ smiley face etc. Extends to work where someone essentially repeats what you've said as if it's something they've just thought of. Compounded, again, if there's any praise for that.

All sounds a bit creepy. Not a search I want on my browser history. 🙂

I always thought that about Le Tissier. Here's a player who'd found his level, I thought. He must have, because we've just escaped the drop again. If he was better, we'd be higher. No top club will be interested in him. 🙂

It's a lemon of a stadium, but in a good way. 🙂

Age

There's that bit in 2001: A Space Odyssey where one caveman raises a boulder to bludgeon his victim. As the rock falls, Budgie dives in and deflects it round the mouth of the cave. 🙂

Whew! That's a weight off. Thanks for confirming. 🙂

In breaking news, Sport Republic buy a club in Rwanda allowing certain travelling Saints fans the full trafficking experience...🙂

Although, we've had a poor experience with a young City keeper before, it shouldn't make us Gunn shy, if the talent is there. 🙂

Anyone else get a sudden craving for lemon sherbets? Nice. Thanks for that Nolan.

You'd have thought Williams would have benefitted for exactly the reason you say. But they thought they were Chelsea's player farm instead. I can imagine them needing every penny they can get their mittens on, to bring in the quality of players they'd need.

But before he goes, he wants to relive part of the career of his idol... Kevin Keegan, and joins us. "I didn't start the rumour, but I'll keep it runnin', while the window is turnin' " as a more football interested Billy Joel could have sung. 🙂

Considering they wanting a fair amount for Williams to join us, I wonder how much they'd charge for Elanga?
