I really like the Ugly. It's essentially a load of blokes taking the mickey with occasional football references. Have never understood why Nick gets a hard time on here, he's a top bloke and to the best of my knowledge has never been derogatory about this board.
I agree that we should be looking at players like Rhodes. We could probably throw in a few players in part-exchange (Hammond, De Ridder etc) which would reduce the fee, albeit possibly not by that much in truth.
Yup. The Ugly Inside was superb. I also really liked On The March, though I suppose the notoriety it got for the Branfoot cover probably didn't help it.
Whoever it was (Pilchards???) who gave the detailed report of Pardew's first training session at Saints whilst hiding up a tree. That was comedy gold and also a real service to us all. Superb.
leftback was really good until he had to go.
