Corrected for you ;-)

Schorchio.

Wasn't it Futre who Franny Benali launched into space thus earning a Red Card? I don't think he even bothered waiting for the ref to show the card - just walked!!

If only Nic was around when we sold Bale - we'd probably get a pay out every time a team was even linked with him in the Media !!

I think we can call him The Space Cowboy or The Gangster of Lurve !! Is it just me or is there quite a strong facial resemblance between The Gangster of Love and our Mauricio? Some people call me the space cowboy, yeah Some call me the gangster of love Some people call me Maurice Cause I speak of the pompitous of love People keep talkin' about me, baby Say I'm doin' you wrong, doin' you wrong Well, don't you worry baby Don't worry Cause I'm right here, right here, right here right here at home Cause I'm a picker I'm a grinner I'm a lover And I'm a sinner I play my music in the sun I'm a joker I'm a smoker I'm a midnight toker I get my lovin' on the run Wooo Wooooo You're the cutest thing That I ever did see I really love your peaches Want to shake your tree Lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey all the time Ooo-eee baby, I'll sure show you a good time Cause I'm a picker I'm a grinner I'm a lover And I'm a sinner I play my music in the sun I'm a joker I'm a smoker I'm a midnight toker I sure don't want to hurt no one Wooo Wooooo People talk about me, baby Say I'm doin' you wrong, doin' you wrong Well, don't you worry baby Don't worry mama Cause I'm right here at home You're the cutest thing That I ever did see I really love your peaches Want to shake your tree Lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey all the time Come on baby ill show you a good time

Ha Ha ... I was guessing at Scott Sinclair based on While lotta Rosie by AC/DC from when Bon Scott was still alive!! Fourtunately I don't get to hear all the tittle tattle crap from the soaps or talentless popstars!!

My hunch is Whole lotta Rosie by AC/DC when Bon Scott was still alive. ..... = Scott Sinclair.

1st team in Prem Era to field 3 18 yrs or under players:toppa:

MLG is gonna be p!ssed off with you beating him to that obscure little known fact!!

Is that the Eterna Watch he's sporting? ;-)

We're going to need 30 minute HT breaks to get the team talk done !!

He looks a lot happier than anelkHa did at the WBA photo shoot !!

Yep ... he wants to use the one he brought over with him. Here is a snap from (un)dress rehershal earlier.

Song sorted then .... there's only 2 Brad Pitts, there's only 2 Johnny Depps, there's only 2 Johnny Depp's. Guess we'll be seeing more females at SMS now.

First major spat already? ;-)

Is that the new 3rd kit? Where is he going to find room for The watch on his wrist?

..... or maybe they are going to wheel in Messi out of the blue .... just like Kevin Keegan at The Potters Heron all those years ago. Now that would be worth seeeing!!

Being conducted in English?

Ha ha .... read that as a 15 pinter .... which isn't far off the amount I had on my last trip there, 2-2 draw. A brace from Raziak. Jermaine Wright was in the team ...... seems we've made some progress since then!!! Are you going to Anfield?

This one? ......... That should have Bearsy creaming his shreddies.

I think it is only right that we all step back and take stock of what has happened over this transfer window, and not stick our heads in the sand and assume we have a bottomless pit of money to spend, if we are to maintain the moral high ground over Portsmyth. Looking at various other clubs message boards, most are initially as shocked as we are at events, but then it turns to green eyed monster jealousy and sweeping statements about us out living our means. A few have have seen what we are striving towards, and even admit to admiring the way we are going about it, whilst high lighting their own club's (WHU, Stoke & Sunderland) own short comings in going for quantity over quality. Importantly, i think the club have actually done what they set out to do from the outset of this Transfer Window. Weren't figures of a war chest of over 30 million being bandied about? The extra revenue to all Prem Teams from this season onwards, on top of what was an already fair old wedge of money will have gone a long way to off setting the fees already. I maybe a bit naive here, but aren't most transfer fees paid in a structured way over a period of time, rather than a one off cheque, or a quick trip to The ATM and 15 million quid withdrawn and stuffed into brown paper envelopes? More importantly, virtually the whole squad is signed up to long term contracts, so, if anybody comes sniffing around for any of our players, they are going to have to stump up silly money before the club would even think about entering negotiations. I am sure that The Club have looked very closely at where they stand with regards to The Finacial Prudence thingy rearding salaries V revenue %''s, I'm sure The FL/FA whoever, will be keeping a beady eye on us, as weren't we one of a few clubs who voted against it? My head is still spinning at the events of the last week, body covered in pinch marks, but yep it seem's it really is happening!!

I'm just hoping that this last few days isn't all a dream, and that I'll wake up in the morning and find out that it really has happened. Wednesday - SRL the toast of England, could have even had a at trick in 20 mins!! Sat - winning on the opening day of the season in The Prem for the 1st time since 1999, and against a team who convincingly beat us twice last season. Sun - yet another International player with CL experience signed, another eterna watch to be worn at official press conference. My head is spinning. It's like having a Happy Pill Overload!!

You could argue that Spiderman could be added to the list of homegrown players having been with us since he was 17, and could if he so wished apply for a UK passport!!
