Crab Lungs

Lmfao, what difference does it actually make? You've got to play everyone at some point. Such a pr1ck.

So they beat you, purely for being English? Bit racist, that. :-o

If I had tea in my mouth, I'd have spat it out. And they wonder why the got into £130m of debt? The fans are as stupid as the directors who sanctioned it.

I think agboola's design is great, but I really, really wouldn't want us to have a "cartoon-style" image of Markus. The blending of two or three of the others, especially The Kraken's suggestion, is my favourite choice. Anyway, is it worth running some sort of poll for a couple of days due to the diversity of opinion?

The Kraken, it was this font here: http://www.dafont.com/dead-kansas.font

worth a look if you've got a few mins spare... seems the 'ammers took an interest in the Skates, too http://www.kumb.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=119652&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=1200

my image disappeared, uh oh... back to the drawing board...

Something like?

Mike, can you email me (if that's OK) as I might be able to design something tonight ..

Haha, not quite. I'm not on FB anymore, but I can PM you my email?

They're 2nd choice stopper is their version of Tommy Forecast http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsnkOw90rJQ

Somewhere, I think! I've just PM'd you mine anyway

Lol, it's fine I'm not on Facebook any more however, I can PM you my email and PM you some of my recent, skate-related artwork for your perusal...

Ah Daren, I would be interested writing-wise. We spoke on/off over the past 2-3 years about the possibility of doing something fanzine wise so I'm glad to see it's finally coming fruition. Additionally, if you need a website, I can help...

If Henderson is worth £20m, then Chamberlain is worth £35m, without doubt. Henderson is a average-to-good midfield clogger. I wonder what Neil Maddison would have been worth in this day and age? Especially as he would score 5-10 goals a season from midfield and could do a little bit of everything...

Move over Winslet you chubby moo, here's an English rose that is worthy of ravaging until senseless.

Thank you both

It's nothing to do with having rose tinted glasses at all for me, personally. Just because he has somehow managed to mug a living in the PL for the past 3-4 years doesn't make him any good any more. He's be woeful and has lost almost all of his attributes. If you put him up against someone like Nathan Dyer, he would be skinned, almost every time.... 5 years ago, he was the best left-back in England and had everything. These days he's a shadow of a shadow of a shadow of his former self. IMO.

Never did r00t an emo

On current form and form of the last two years, I'd have our left backs every time. Bridge has completely lost most of his best attributes so he'd probably struggle whatever level

Apparently, according to Bompey fans, that's our fault.

I would much rather have Dickson and Harding, thanks. Not just because of wages but because, IMO, they're actually better players at this very moment. Bridge is sh1te now, really sh1te. And expensive.

I love stories like this; is there any online link for the article you read?

Was devastated when we turfed out Maik Taylor but Paul Jones turned out to be a superb servant. Like many above me have already said, he had a few minor faults to his game but was definitely a "Premier League Kelvin", saving us far more points than he lost us by an absolute mile. Superb shotstopper, in my opinion, better than Niemi in that respect but Antti was a better all-round goalkeeper. Was never bothered who'd be in goal for us when we had both of them around, though. Top professionals.
