There were only two players in the picture FFS. Let's start some rumours about the rest of the squad.

You seem to be well out of step with the majority on this matter. The format has no appeal whatsoever especially as it was a nothing-at-stake training session. Words "easily pleased" and "soon parted" spring to mind.

Bugger me, people moaning about the new beer after their first pint... let's be honest if all you go to football for is to slosh cat pee down your throat why bother? Tank up around the corner before you get there. Surely you can go 90 minutes without a drink???

Don't be ridiculous. A lot of people are truly hard up these days with energy and food prices rocketing. For many including me it was a complete waste of time and money could be ill afforded. Who has enough money to spare these days to see reserve teams poncing about? Try to be a bit more sensitive and understanding. What really matters is that we get more than 20k at home matches when the action really starts.

Bit of a stretch to believe that just because an unknown Belgian turns up with a box of chocolates. Still if it keeps you hot!

Bugger me, you ought to be Cortese's press secretary so full of bull**** are you.

Lee Barnard was in West Quay yesterday at 1.30 heading up the escalator to the food hall. He passed me and his hand was fine, no bandages, plasters, nothing. He looked very fit and for those who care about these things (I don't) he was wearing the same outfit later shown on the OS pic.

Who'd have thought that a squad list was worth debating... maybe we could try hot dog suppliers next or brand of hot choc?

You blokes never learn do you, Arsenal are not interested anymore. They are too busy hanging on to what they've got and finding a new manager to move Wenger upstairs. It's experience they want now not snotty nose, pimply kids with "p-o-t-e-n-t-i-a-l"

Wow! Red & White Stripes. Good to see that Umbro have come up with something imaginatively different. Now where did I put that 1974 shirt...

Around 12th. There are some very good teams in this division; many with considerable NPL experience. Although we can look good in spells, can we really keep up over 46 games? maybe next year but not this.

No doubt angling for a job if he screws up at Leicester or Nige screws up here?

Which is the obvious choice for you if you object. The answer to your second comment is probably "Yes". they probably see it as an irritation to have to sacrifice part of the SMS real estate to low rent working class supporters when they could open yet another luxury 'prawn sandwich' super lounge for duckers & divers of international big business

Don't panic. As usual it is all down to Nigel's idiosyncratic use of the English Language. Who else on this planet would use a non-word like "togetherness"? Of course it sparks of concerns as to what may be hidden underneath.. Time for some media training Nige in order to avoid stepping on land mines every time you step into a Press Conference. The main reason they are in Switzerland is to get ****ed up every night for free at the Chairman's expense.

If he's good, good, if he's bad, bad!

My choice too - Guly IS the fast man

Say after me three times "I am not prejudiced"

Yeah but we can play Guly off Lambert before Connors comes on later especially if Barnard misses a few...

The best news ever. Great signing. I guess what swayed it for him is the proximity to London, he doesn't need to move house an can still enjoy the West End Scene. Let's keep them all fit and we'll knock a few off their perches. Where 'though does Mr Hammond fit in now?

You were warned about this on Tuesday after my visit to but ST. You get 30 mins free so you should have gone later when queue had reduced a bit. Anyway as you had just spent 400 quid +/_ what's a £1 to moan about? Do you want a solvent club or a Lowe style bankrupt club. Stop grumbling over trivia.

They certainly won't be winning anything here for a few years and that's all most of them have got at the top.

One cannot help but agree with you... Yawn!

Fear not sir as The Gooners are about to implode and Wenger will soon be gone; the last thing on their minds will be youngsters. That era is over so's been whispered!

Don't over rate the NPC just because we've been away for a couple of years. Some of the Academy kids did quite well at this level before and will do so again. it was just a pity that Jan Poortvliet had few options other than to chuck them all in at the deep end together. Don't forget that pre-season match against PL West Ham when we went 3-0 up early on with a dazzling display of pass and move from our kids.

Surely we are not allowed by law to carry brand sponsorship for beer on our shirts? The Irish connection ensures we'll be in orange & white stripes and green shorts. If nothing else it'll show Coor's that the designer we used at Umbro was downing plenty of their amber juice.
