doubleonothing Posted 1 April, 2013 Share Posted 1 April, 2013 Best one the club did was changing the home kit to blue to welcome Pompey to the premiership - it was about 10 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 1 April, 2013 Share Posted 1 April, 2013 Dam I actually believed it! If he does indeed have a NZ grandfather it wouldn't be the stupidest shout though would it..... It would when Rickie is one of the best England strikers out there. I don't care about Rickie's age. If England qualify for next year's World Cup, they would be mental not to take him if he continues playing like he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picard Posted 1 April, 2013 Share Posted 1 April, 2013 Couldn't he qualify for Wales, Scotland or one of the Irelands? Lambert sounds a bit Scottish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectisSaint Posted 1 April, 2013 Share Posted 1 April, 2013 Couldn't he qualify for Wales, Scotland or one of the Irelands? Lambert sounds a bit Scottish. New Zealand makes some sense, but playing for Scotland? I think Rickie has some self esteem. Even with WGS in charge :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
