Pat from Poole

I note that the ever-unreliable Transfer Rumours site has tonight linked us with WBA striker Simon Cox (loan for season with a view to buy in summer) and Michael Duff from Burnley.

Quality goal celebration, but borders on obese.

Why? Did they sign Calum Davenport and Jakobsen?

I thought clubs only got about £60K at most each time they are shown on SKY. The away club only get something like £10K, I believe.

It's a poor draw and doesn't excite me in the slightest; not as if we haven't played them recently. I lost interest in the Cup last night when Cheats FC lost, the chance to get revenge on them for last season's exit was the only thing I wanted from the FA Cup this season. As for the United game, I'm just pleased that it will hopefully fund a couple more new players which would seal promotion, the only thing that matters. The result against United is irrelevant.

I'm not into egg-chasing, but did you hear the interview given by the Saracens' guy on Saturday? Heard it on Talk Sport last night and it was very funny. Link as below:- http://sport.iafrica.com/rugby/news/694210.html

I also parked there last season and would recommend it. Very handy spot.

I think you've got a bit carried away and misunderstood The9's post. Methinks he's not slating Adkins himself, but merely putting forward a piece of questionable logic that he was anticipating Adkins-slaters would be using.

Sounds a plan. Bournemouth are skint. They signed him at a tribunal for £60K, plus £40K to come. I reckon if we offered £250K they'd snap our hands off.

Completely agree. Told it how it was with no waffle, articulate guy. After Strachan and Hoddle, our best manager of the last decade.

Rofe??? I remember the Carlisle away game last season, Merrington was unavailable, Solent got the Echo guy Adam Leitch in. I actually thought he was very good and insightful. Hadn't previously realised that he lived in Scotland, which seemed bizarre.

I am beginning to think that leftback is an agent representing a currently disgruntled player (Lambert possibly). Why else would disclosures be made about Guly being the top-paid player? There seems to be a lot of knowledge about Lambert's contract talks over the summer as well.

He means Crosby, Adkins' assistant.

I am not doubting the validity of leftback's comments, but am a bit puzzled about the bit that says we've got to keep winning so as to be able to make changes in the January transfer window. If we actually were to keep winning, would it not be a bit odd to make loads of changes in January? (I think the squad undoubtedly needs more depth, but I'm not sure that equates to changes).

I think that Sky Sports News is also a "News" channel, so if your in-laws have got the News package as one of their packs on their Sky subscription, they will be able to get Sky Sports News even if they don't have a subscription to the Sports channels.

The concept of ball control was alien to Bradley. If I had a pound for every time he ran the ball off the pitch.....

Stayed in Brussels for Euro 2000, it's OK, Grand Place is nice. I think it's quite a good place to go for a weekend.

I would recommend staying with Virgin Media, as I have. I nearly moved across to BT a few months ago, but found them to be highly dishonest in what they could offer and gave them a miss. Their staff all seemed to be Scottish as well, I understood the Virgin call centre reps better!!!!!! Not sure what the broadband speed comparison is like in your neck of the woods, but in Poole it's twice as fast with Virgin Media compared with BT.

Out of interest, how did you come to decide on your username?

The teams we lost to in that run of games last season all ultimately finished in the top half of the League. I'll be very surprised if Rochdale and Plymouth end up in the top half. There were admittedly a couple of silly draws in that run of games but we were starting to look a decent team by the end of it.

I think I missed Manji being perceptive.

Ha ha ha. I know we're desperate, but FFS........

And Lowe wasn't a freeloader? Did he or did he not get the club to pay his own personal legal fees when he sued Martin Samuel?

It is difficult to take seriously the views of a poster on this forum who spends most of their time dreaming of swallowing the semen of Rupert Lowe.
