Turkish Posted 2 May, 2010 Share Posted 2 May, 2010 thirsty Hirsty! What a player he could have been if it wasn't for injuries and his love of the beer. Rumour has it Fergie tried to sign him 5 times for Man U and when he couldn't get him turned to a certain frenchman instead.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, you are correct, funny how they both snubbed Man U, as did Gazza, i bet hirst and Gazza regret it, they could have been superb with Fergie watching over them.

markr27 Posted 2 May, 2010 Share Posted 2 May, 2010 Cannot stand that Mark Bright - that Sheff Wed player "only had a little cut on his toe, why did he go off?" rrrr. Because it was likely to have been dislocated and was hanging off at a weird angle. Did you not see the pain and anguish on his face man. A pundit completely out of his depth.

Junction 9 Posted 2 May, 2010 Share Posted 2 May, 2010 Does anyone other than me remember Hirst taking the p*ss out of Allesandro Pistone at the Dell years ago. He was getting treatment for a nothing tackle and Hirst was immitating him putting on makeup and doing his hair. Pistone actually found it funny.

Paul Chuckle Posted 2 May, 2010 Share Posted 2 May, 2010 Didn't Hirst bang in 2 on his home debut against Spurs at The Dell in a 3-2 win? Remember being year 10 of School when we signed him for 2Mil and was so excited, my mate was a Sheff Weds fan and was gutted when we signed him.

Badger Posted 2 May, 2010 Share Posted 2 May, 2010 Shipps was always the chubstick but this is taking it too far: I seem to recall his league debut,for Chelsea, at TheDell and he looked very athletic then.Although he was probably only 18 at the time. That photo looks in the dangerously obese fat f^cker range than just 'chubby'.That is fat bastard in the Mickey Quinn proportions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackie@home Posted 3 May, 2010 Share Posted 3 May, 2010 He's only stopped playing 5 years ago. Just shows you how being fat ages you. If he carries on like this, he'll turn into Larry Lloyd, the fattest ex-footballer I've seen. (You have to be old enough.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsacar saint Posted 3 May, 2010 Share Posted 3 May, 2010 Are people on here incapable of staying on a particular thread. What has Neil Shipperley go to do with David Hirst. I already know they both played for Saints,and are carrying a few extra pounds. Then I am sure some of you on here,will tell me I have answered my own question, If you do you will totally be missing the point of my question.

benjii Posted 3 May, 2010 Author Share Posted 3 May, 2010 Let me answer this... It is my thread. When I started it I hoped for an enjoyable conversation prompted by Hirst's girth but not necessarily exclusively focussed on it. I am happy that other girths have also featured.
