“Ivory Coast”. Credit Ian Wright and Neville for giving it in ‘old money’.

Cote D’Ivoire please, show some respect. Pretentious bollocks.

And he can redeem himself with a 33-50% sell on clause when the player joins Leeds or whoever.

Not a fan of Ankersen by any means, but not sure this is on him. Wasn’t Charles during the Shields period ? (Although may still have been negotiated by Rasmus), Trouble is in securing the young players from City and Chelsea, the sell on is part of the deal, and they probably won’t look at selling without. It also makes the deal more affordable for us, and ‘transfers’ some of the risk involved. Probably a case that without the sell on clause, we don’t get to see the Lavias, Charles, and Livramentos in the first place.

Know how it’ll end then

Wasn’t it Lankshear who went through against us and skewed a shot wide ? Didn’t look that good last season against us from what I recall. Certainly not a £20m player, or an obligation to buy.

Isn’t that conflicted as he was playing for Netherlands the other night ?

Were they in the same qualifying group as Formosa ?

Alex Crook - bigger muppet than previously credited for.

Could you ? Not so sure on that although Mara had three things that bought him a bit more time: i)his pass v Leeds ii)a cracking goal v Man City and iii)his mum and peoples reaction to her! Admittedly i and ii are light years ahead of DD but he had many opportunities to provide something.

Not seen or heard such a story before.

Didn’t Mick Channon appear on the panel in 1982 as well ? He was certainly part of it in 1986, coining the name Gary Line-acre.

Perhaps they’ll publish (sneak) the outcome to the media ahead of or just after the England game to ‘manage’ the publicity, whichever way it goes.

What has Roy Cropper got to say about it ? That’s the key thing for me.

Seemingly the Turkish were annoyed about the spelling.
