Fair enough, but he was favourite at one point.

Taylor is that lad in your Sunday league team. A'bdy likes him, he's a laugh, his bird is fit, he seems soft as shite but he likes the gym and you're just nae sure if you pushed it too far, given his gymbunniness he might embarrass you. Every so often he'll see half an opening and charge through (with his primary school control) opposition fannies will back off "coz he's a big lad" then he'll have a dig and it'll go over the bar clearing the DD, or go out for a throw. Just remeber once every three* years he'll hit the target. That is not worth a new contract at AFC. *maybe

See Alex Neil has been "resigned (tm The Sevco, 2017)" by Norwich. Bet The Sevco are sick. I reckon they saw Neil has a cheap option that might make them look ambitious to their zombie followers. Lovely that Norwich have seen through that and held onto him until it was certain they could not get compo for a failing manager, before punting him.

Foderingham should have been off but he's got away with it despite the Lino being in-line. I assume the Accies player had tasered the Sevco lad as he'd let go by the time he started convulsing like an epileptic. Some might say soft penalty I say corrupt. Guarantee if we win tomorrow it'll be the tims in the Semi for us.

Dirthy Filthy Hun Scumbag Vermin (deceased) and Poundland tribute act
baggy89 replied to mizer's topic in Football Chat
Jesus that is desperate. Not too difficult to see why those particular players were chosen for this work of revisionist fiction. Oxford, as he provides hope to their moronic support that they too could sign a "Dembele" type. Hayes, as it makes their moronic support believe that their 4.5 year old club are bigger than us with added (in their eyes) unsettling effect. -
Dirthy Filthy Hun Scumbag Vermin (deceased) and Poundland tribute act

Fucking hilarious! More than grounds for 3 cases of wrongful dismissal. It's almost as if they are deliberately pouring money down the drain. -
See they've decided to ban the sun today (10/02/2017) over said toilet papers coverage of the Hillsborough disaster (15/04/1989). Timely...

Thought La La Land was horrific. Dull Dull Land. I can only assume folk get drawn in by the bit at the end designed to make folk (wifies) cry. Even my wife who normally laps that kind of shite up commented that it was really boring and she only wanted to stay to the end as she'd invested time in it. Saw Manchester by the sea at the weekend, heart breaking stuff. Grief so totally overwhelming and superbly acted. There is no way Ryan Gosling should win the Oscar before Casey Affleck (that's not to say other performances I haven't seen are not better). Saw T2 on the Saturday it was out. Loved the original took me a while to get used to the pace of this one as its nowhere near the first, which still now seems like its been on ten minutes at the final scene. However I think it's reflective of the place the characters are in their lives and is deliberately more pedestrian . Once you understand that I think it's a terrific film in it's own right. Looking forward to seeing it again. As said, Spud and Begbie were highlights as was the surprise at seeing Mikey Forrester now a seemingly successful gangster.

I suppose any money saved between now and the end of the season, whether that be transfer fees, signing on fee's or just wages goes into the pot for next season. That might be another couple of grand a week for McGinn, Jack, an extension on Hayes contract or replacements for any of those out of contract at the end of the season.
-
So Cardiff value him at £3 million (that's what they will pay him over 3 years) but only want to pay a quarter of that to sign him... Hayes has a year and a half left here so he is, based on Cardiffs own valuation, worth £1.5 million. Whole lot up front by midday or fuck off. And unless we were interested in any of their players prior to their interest in Hayes they can keep their rejects. Why we would want a too shite for Cardiff reject on loan is beyond me and just further stinks of their arrogance throughout this carry on.
-
lol. What a bunch of cunts. They've let a player go "by mutual consent" 29 years old plays similar position to Hayes that they allegedly paid £2 million for in the summer. If it's right that it was a 2 year deal and they paid £2 million, I'd say a rough guess would be the lad was on £15k - £20k a week, if we split the difference and call it £17500 pw that's about a £300k saving on his wages for the rest of the season or £1.2 million over the length of his contract. Cardiff have been told to get real twice, you would have imagined they've been given a figure from which we'd be willing to negotiate from. Someone form the club should start submitting stupid bids for their players. A toaster and Calderwood's tombola for Junior Hoilett.

I remember reading or hearing an interview with Phil Brown (I know, I know) a few years ago. He was adamant that the players he had at Southend were not any worse technically or poorer physically in terms of fitness, strength and speed than the players he managed in the EPL with Hull or when he was assistant to Allardyce at Bolton. He maintained the only difference was that mental step up. The belief they had in themselves as players. I think it's something you see at all levels in all sports. I'ts the difference between good also ran's and winners.
-
He's utter shite. I think Everton had 4 shots on target and scored all of them, third dinked over him, fourth one through his legs. The boy Otamendi's not a CB either.
-
To be fair to him Cheltenham were in for him in the summer and Vince blocked the move. Yeovil have tried and been blocked by Vince and now an "unnamed" SPFL side has had two bids rejected. Doesn't look like FGR are going up this season either (automatically). If I had a bit of ambition I'd be getting pissed off that my chance of trying myself at a higher level were constantly being blocked. That club lose between £5-£10 million a season so it's not as if they need the money from the transfer.
-
Heard today that Elliot Frear of Forest Green Rovers is the subject of two rejected bids from an unnamed SPFL side. He's apparently kicking off about it "doing a Payet". Who knows if it's us or not but there can't be many SPFL sides able to actually buy players. Plus he's a winger. Difficult to judge but he's easily FGR's best player and assume he would be playing at higherlevel if league clubs could match what Dale Vince is paying him.

George Michael probably the most apt celebrity death since Jon Denver left on a jet plane.

We set up to absorb and counter. Did it against sevco and got away with it. Wrong tactics yesterday and same wrong tactics were used against sevco. We have the players to counter. We don't have the players to sit in. Especially when the opposition have players who can foul with impunity. This team should be pressing as high up the pitch as possible. At a guess McInnes has us playing this way as we probably lost the title last season against teams that sat in and we failed to break down. That said, 3-0 flattered Celtic. 3 errors from us 3 goals from them. January we need a at least one player that improves the defensive aspect of the midfield. Rooney was a waste of a shirt although if Maddison had played him in immediately prior to the tims first goal, instead of taking the shot, I'm sure he would have been a hero today. Such is the life of a striker.

Italia 90 Before that the only folk that liked fitba were folk that liked fitba. After :'(
-
I assume the part of the medical he failed was the part where they asked him how much per week It would take for him to be fit...
-
Aye thats what I remember. Rafael and someone else of equal shiteness(relative), getting played in front of him out of position in midfield. So decided if he was thought of that poorly, that mediocre players out of position were a better option, he was better off moving elsewhere to develop his career. Correct move as hindsight now shows.
-
Thought in the first two games Lewis looked suspect. Looked properly dodge tonight. He'll cost us points. Stockley was good when he came on. Rooney's finish was top. Nice to see Wes get a wee boost. Hayes targeted again. Hopefully we get a good solid MF that allows the likes of MacLean, Jack, Wes, Storey to push forward and take the pressure (and hits) off McGinn and Rooney.
-
Scored against 'boro last season, when City beat them. Don's have a decent record with former Whaddon Road loanees (Hayes and Hector), hopefully he does as well as them.
-
Wes would be decent. Cheltenham had him on loan two seasons ago. THE ONLY player good enough who put in effort that season. Think that says it all about his commitment 19 on loan and your the only player putting in the effort. Think he had the talent also but hard to judge in a team where the captain fucked off to his mates wedding instead of playing in a relegation game. Think he was top scorer despite only playing from end of January and I'm sure getting injured before the final 3 games. Played wide but can go through the middle too, in a sort of Hayes/McGinn role.
-
Had a text of a Plymuff mate earlier asking my opinion. Told him I'm delighted as means Cheltenham have an even better chance of back to back promotions if their frontline is going to be Goodwillie and Reid. Dan Holman will score at least 3 times as many as that two together.
