Won't happen in my view as a)Celtic reluctant to sell, and b)other Prem clubs have previously been linked. I still think there could be a striker from Europe lined up. No knowledge, just a hunch.

Have we/are we appealing against the three match ban ?

Like you, I'm bemused by this appointment in view of his age. I doubt there will have been much recruitment on the continent whilst at MK, so can we assume this chap will be 'recuiting' at a relatively junior and local - or UK at most - level ? Personally I was hoping for a Georges Prost type figure for European scouting/recruitment.

Well worth a rendition at some stage...

Inadvertantly, there is another song in there, The Bangles " Walk like a Korean.."

Bill Green as on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Green_(footballer) a number of scouting roles,previously European scout at Wigan,Derby & Bolton. Anyone recall any significant success stories from there ?

Is he an ex player from the 60's/70's ? Played for Carlisle I think.

Not watching it either, but to be fair Gabby Logan is a good and competent presenter. Which is more than can be said about many who present football/sports on tv.

With him and Lawrenson on, you're always going to see a pair of tits on MoTD.

Dave Bassett -although only a joint caretaker manager. as in Bassett Hound. (sorry couldn't resist - but if you need a real one, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basset_Jhones , although a slight variation in spelling).

Seems a bit of a Guly-Puncheon cross from the above descriptions.

very good ! keeping it on track.

Oh dear ! First night in Southampton, hope this is not a scandal to break out re smuggling two older women or geishas into the hotel.At least get established in the team before hitting the tabloids and Echo for the wrong reason.

I recognise five of them by name , although not sure I'd recognise their faces - or other body parts in some cases - if shown in the paper.

Think he had a rift with Lennon earlier in the season, so they might want to move him on. Not that keen as he does seem as said above a "poor mans AL".

Groves was of course a Branfoot signing. Alan Ball clearly did not share Branfoot's vision of how the game should be played, or that Groves was worth picking up his salary whilst permanently injured.

Sorry - genuine typo will change that before one of the easily offended brigade take issue !

not in the Bridle Suite then with his WAG ?

Hope his skills do for Japanese football, what Eric Canterna did for the French (see Neal Trottman loaned out in L1 again if anyones interested)

I too have come round to this conclusion. A month ago,I thought we might sign "better", and with greater potential, but now feel Sharp could make an impact immediately, Tadanari Lee - hope it is a spectacular success - but with work permits, acclimatising etc, it seeems too great a risk,and expectation of him.

Tadanari could be a good signing and become our mane attraction.

with Saints though, I've a nagging suspicion it might.

Unlike signing Rodriguez at £5m, at least this bloke won't leave us saddled with a huge debt

Thought Templeton the outstanding wing prospect at Hearts.
