Give it to Ron

The Birds Nest was later renamed - Clowns I think . Where BK is now was a place called Sidecars and I use to go in there on a Saturday night about 1979ish.

He got a fair judgement from me, I can't believe some fans think that some get great pleasure from us signing duds and writing them off I certainly don't. He may be tall Dave but he is poor in the air and seen several goals go in over his head! In fact I was there when Bale made his debut for the u-18s .... I was stood next to Keith Legg at the game and we both said how good he was and would go on to make it. Glad to be proved right!

He gets beaten too often from distance and is shocking on crosses - gets stranded and beaten too easily. So he has been here for years and made how many appearances....we have had more managers than he has played 'proper' games! Now why would that be??? Why has no other league club come in for him in this window....Eastbourne is his level thats why!

Just saw Bartley at Bournemout going to Burnley - makes them weaker.

Avram Grant has revealed West Ham United could add another player to their ranks before the transfer deadline and insists Carlton Cole will not leave.

officialsaints Saints FC For those of you asking, I'm still in the office and think I will be for a while yet. Can't say any more than that at the moment I'm afraid oxo replacement??

At first I was a bit underwhelmed as he is not in the calibre I thought we needed(McK-Smith who was brilliant against us), however when I read this...its sounds like we have another Kenwynne who couldnt trap a bag of cement when I first watched him. He has progressed into a good player so perhaps we can do the same with Forte? I have been saying all season we needed someone with pace to turn the opposing defence around facing their own goal. He's lightning quick. When I talk about quick players I always say, 'Is he Jonno quick?' We've found that he's got pace, power, and he's got stronger and stronger. "He's had a bit part to play, but he can play on the left or right wing or as a centre forward. He's got unbelievable pace and strength, he gets that ball and he runs with it in behind and he's scores goals. In training at times, some of the stuff that he does - he's unplayable. "He's experienced in the Championship now. He's had a good couple of years and is a player who is getting better and better, and still only young. "He's always going to be a goal threat because of his pace. He's willing, he's got a great attitude, and I think he'll fit in excellently to the culture that we have at this football club. He's got a good physical presence about himself and we're delighted that he can come and join us. "We're looking at the culture here and I know what his capabilities are, and I know at times that he can be a little inconsistent as all young players can be, but I just believe that bringing him into the environment that we've got down here he can only get better and better. Good facilities, excellent coaching and great medical with sports science support and I think we've got a physical athlete here who has got undoubted natural ability and is going to be a goal threat, and I think he's going to enhance the group of players that we've got at this football club." http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~2281315,00.html

Sorry I didn't say he isn't a good player or that he won't do a job for us...its just odd to me that Adkins sent him out on loan a couple of times.

So Forte is that good Adkins sent him out on loan twice?

Really chuffed and pleased at that performance - what greater compliment than to have to bring on Giggs and Nani to play against a league one team!! Now lets get promoted thats all that matters

Thai Airways

Yeah of course he is ...how many Saints players have scored 12 this season?? Another one who can't read! Its immaterial now as he has signed so won't happen anyway will it. post 228

As usual you take this to the wrong extreme - where does anyone say we are measuring success? Do you want to try and explain how 7 out of 25 games is half?? "tyson has made 23 appearances this season.....half from the bench....clearly getting plenty of time on the pitch....ffs " http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/n/nottm_forest/9372103.stm Here are some more gems from you: "out side of the a couple of big clubs in the prem...please point me in the direction of the other multi million ££££ signings in england...let alone league 1 " So when you were shown transfers out of Prem like Hull, Leicester, QPR and in England you changed that to: "I never said outside of the top 4...I said a few top prem clubs..." You are not exactly qualified to judge others posts are you?

When they became a rival?

But good enough and fit enough to sign for Charlton though?? Its immaterial now as he has signed so won't happen anyway will it.

Bad news for Huddersfield as I just read on SSN that Jordan Rhodes is out for 8 weeks.

What division were we in then compared to now? So Charlton think he is good eneough yet you don't?

Sorry Smirking wasn't ignoring you and you make a valid point....yes it could just be that the players are not available and no-one wants to release their best but then again agents want their cut and do their best to get moves for their players no matter how long the contract is. I am sure Cortese wont pay over the odds and that is why perhaps the player I was hoping for hasn't arrived ....yet ;-)

See post #192 Barnard ...in court soon Connolly ...when was last time he started? Lallana....currently injured So that leaves Oxo who I hope stays and Doble...so your point is?

Yes I explained that Chez... I read it wrong on wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_Tyson He is allowed to talk to clubs if he is out of contract and I thought as he had played so few not much chance of a contract renew. I believe that all players are mercenaries...given enough incentive they will move. The point with Fonte was that he was happy to come to us..were we the only club after him considering how good he is ...I am glad we got him. P.S 7 starts out of 25 according to this http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/n/nottm_forest/9372103.stm

How do you know he is FFS I read wiki wrong.... 2010–11 6 0 0 0 1 0 7 0

Spend,spend??? where? Guly a serie B and short term serie A, 50k on Chaplow...as explained several times our gates, revenue, lack of mortgage paymenst, Sky TV money would surely cover Lallana? As for the bench...if Barnard goes down, Connolly looks finished, Punch looks as though he is off thats leaves us short of quality a bit? For those that can't read...I am not saying N'Guessen is a bad loan and is rubbish...just that from what has been stated by the management I was hoping for more than a gamble. Hopefully he will be exactly what we need and in the next 5 days we add some more quality to our squad so we can automatically go up. I apologise for showing some ambition.

So you are saying no player out of contract would be interested in a move for money? Go do some research how many games has he played for Forest this season.....injured yes and Forest have no other strikers do they...no player ever drops a division do they Fonte?

Tyson at Forest ..out of contract end of season - wages..possibly an issue but would be Ok if promoted next season as well. I would of gone for BWP...good enough for Charlton so why not us. Has pace that we need and different to what we have. Short term contract - cost nothing. McK-S - was quality against us and really stood out - I have been admirer of his play for ages and watched him on purpose at SMS. Pugh as have told you already has been the Cherries stand out player and costs a fraction more than the Sky money on Saturday proven in this division.

I have answered this several times read them!
