I wish people would stop talking about the colour of his skin when trying to explain the criticisms of Guly. It's got f**k all to do with it. What has being black got to do with his none-performance at Fratton Park or failing to track back and defend when we lose the ball? My personal opinion is that he will get found out a bit in the Prem and struggle to make an impact. I just don't think he is Prem quality, like a lot of the white players we had last season.

Yeah, shame I crashed the old gal into those power lines. P*ssed my mum off a treat.

Been done before. We did it with my grandma years ago.

Bullsh*t. There are plenty of players who ran around a lot and were heavily criticised. Forte, Kenton, Ormerod, Viafara, Prutton, Gillett, Wotton There are plenty of players who don't do a lot of running and are greatly appreciated. Morgan, MLT, Lambert, Jaidi, Rasiak Sharp was never given stick here. Everyone knew he had the tallent, he just needed training and matches to get 'Saints fit'. Pointing out that he had a slow start and wasn't performing as well as Tadanari Lee isn't giving him stick.

Just to point out, most of the booing is done by a pretty small minority of idiots. It only takes a couple of hundred booing in a crowd of 30,000 and people come home, get behind their keyboards and start typing, "Saints fans are all such a bunch of ungreatful c**ts" etc. Sometimes a player is useless. Sometimes a player is so frequently useless that most of the fans realise he is useless and he becomes a 'boo boy'.

Since when did Villa have 2 pennies to rub together? Smells a lot like his agent trying to up the bidding to me.

St. Barts Island if anyone's interested.

What a moustache

Interesting

Oh the ironing. Still, JRod isn't half as bad as 'Chambo'. Personally I'd have given him to Arsenal free just so I didn't have to read that pseudonym on here.

Breaking news on SSN, we're talking to Burnley about JRod. Nothing new.

Prutton looked like he had some decent potential under Strachan. His career could have been completely different if it wasn't for a series of dodgy managers, sh*t teams, injuries and a long suspension. He had a terrible environment in which to develop his tallent, Jrod won't have this issue.

Looking at his scoring record he seems to be improving year on year, which is encouraging. Last year 21 goals Year before 15 goals Year before 1 goal (on loan at Barnsley)

Andy Carroll had a similar scoring record in NpC. Same build, same age. The only difference between them is 11 goals in the Premier League and that added a extra £28m to the price tag. I know that kind of idiocy is a 1 off, even by Liverpool standards, but it just goes to show how prices sky rocket when you're buying from the Prem. £7m is a good price.

If Jrod signs I'm not sure where this leaves Guly. He wont get a look in up front unless injury befouls 2 or 3 strikers at the same time. He will get murdered by a few Prem teams in midfield, I certainly don't want to see him playing RM again.

We're back in the Premier League and we're trying to sign a 22 year old England U21 who was one of the Championship's top scorers last season. Come on, he's got to put a pointless negative slant on it somehow, even if it is factually incorrect.

You could be right. There's also Bale/Forecast, sort of but not really. Davies/Beattie and then a year later Egil/Davies

Really hope this is true. £6.5m plus a couple of add ons would be a decent price. If he scores a dosen goals in the Premier League teams like Spuds and Liverpool will start chucking silly money at him. If he proves his worth over the season he will triple his price.

Bridge/Le Saux and Jones/John are 2 that stick in my mind. I think the later was technically 2 seperate deals, but it was basically a swap.

Hopefully we've set up a new surgery which will enable us to stick Seedorf's brain in Forecast. Not sure what we'd do with Forecast's brain, stick it in a llama or something for a giggle.

I'm pretty sure you can. That's not a transfer as such, you're just offering a player a contract.

Wouldn't be my first choice but he has earned a chance at a higher level. I'd rather him than an old injured has been like Hargreaves or Owen.

If you are refering to the racism issue which is apparently preventing the Chamberlain family from Ukraine then it is indeed sad. I'm not entirely sure it's THAT bad though (I'm posing this as a question not as a statement of fact). I'm sure there will be a few racist hooligans chanting offensive songs, but I doubt it's bad enough to force all ethnic minorities out of the country. I can't imagine large gangs burning crosses in the lobby of the Chamberlain's hotel or pelting their car with petrol bombs as they drive through Kiev. I'm not saying they aren't right to have concerns, but with the massive Police presence there I can't envisage any serious trouble. Also there are plenty of South American and African players in the Ukrainian Premier League. Less so with Dynamo Kiev, but the core of Shakhtar's team is Brazilian and Metalist Kharkhiv only has one Ukrainian (the goalie) in the starting 11. They all seem happy enough to live there, let alone staying in a secure 5 star hotel for a few nights.

Liverpool for me, can't stand most of their fans. Second would be Spuds because of old Twitchy Face. Third probably Everton, I think they got very late goals in both fixtures last time in the Prem, we owe them one. The big 4 are all a given for any newly promoted team.

If by great you mean 'score 5 goals and spend most of the time in the treatment room' then yes, he will be. Their squad is going to look pretty thin next season, what could be funnier than them spunking money on a player who wont be available most of the time.
