BigAl Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 What about the goal scoring headcase at Ayr we were trailing. Can't remember his name. Ryan Stevenston, currently serving an extended driving ban, and got a criminal record for tax disc fraud....ALLEGEDLY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Have cut a' the shit oot of the article about Ayr releasing players this weeks Ayrshire Post. Looks like the boy Stevenston is setting his sights high Meanwhile, Ryan Stevenson, who scooped three player of the year awards, is playing a waiting game as transfer speculation mounts. Stevo, who is under contract for another two years, has been linked with old club St Johnstone and Hartlepool United. He said: “Full-time football in England appeals to me and my agent has told me Hartlepool have been watching me.†Chairman Lachlan Cameron stressed there had been no contact from other clubs but vowed that Stevo wouldn’t be sold cheaply. He said: “Exciting players attract attention and I know that Ryan wants to play at the highest level but there has been no direct interest.†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bloo_toon_red Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 RE: Chimp Chokers Hartlepool is famous for allegedly executing a monkey during the Napoleonic Wars. - see The Hartlepool monkey hanging - for more information. Historians have also pointed to the prior existence of a Scottish folk song called "And the Boddamers hung the Monkey-O". It describes how a monkey survived a shipwreck off the village of Boddam near Peterhead in Aberdeenshire. Because the villagers could only claim salvage rights if there were no survivors from the wreck, they allegedly hanged the monkey. "Monkey hanger" and Chimp Choker are common terms of (semi-friendly) abuse aimed at "Poolies", often from bitter footballing rivals Darlington.

sheepheid Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 James Troisi Not being offered a new contract by the Toon. Might not be good enough for them but would be quality signing for the Dandies. Would add a bit of bulk to our midfield? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Career details. Never made a first team start for Newcastle, but has been capped at full international level http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Troisi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Never heard of him. Seems a bit like Kevin Kyle was when he had 8 Scotland caps but just 2 first team starts for his club!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baggy89 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 A striker who doesn't score and gets played at left midfield... Sounds familiar . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wee toon red Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 I see Gary Breen's been released by Wolves. Don't know exactly which degree of ancient he is but he might be the experienced defender we need beside Zander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunk Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 I see Gary Breen's been released by Wolves. Don't know exactly which degree of ancient he is but he might be the experienced defender we need beside Zander. I seem to recall Sunderland fans, during their very bad season in the Premiership tearing their hair out at him, despairing at how poor he was. Past it IMO, just another Jackie Mac.

Millers Tache Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Think he's signed for someone like Coventry already though, so we're safe enough. Of course, it could have been that an item about Coventry was on SSN when i saw the banner bar saying Breen had been released, and i thought "fuck me, he's still playing?!", and then associated him with Coventry.

OrlandoDon Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 We need a left back - Ian Harte has been released. How old is he? Maybe seriously daydreaming that he'd come here but I remember him being a fair player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slim Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share Posted May 14, 2008 Gavin Williams has been told he is free to leave Ipswich. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gavin_Williams I remember seeing him years ago playing for Hereford in the FA Cup and tore his marker to shreds down the wing. Seen him play a few times since then and always looked a menace with the ball at his feet. From reading the link above, he seems to be a bit of a nutcase too.

manc_don Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I know we've probably got a replacement for this position, but Yuri Cornelisse who plays for ADO is some player. Some of his passing is awesome. Though it said he's an attacker, seemed to play more of a play maker role. www.rtl.nl/(vm=/sport/rtlvoetbal/video/jupiler_league/)/system/video/html/components/sport/rtlvoetbal/miMedia/2008/week19/do_ado_-_vvv_internetsamenvatting.wmv_plain.xml EDIT: for some reason the link won't work, but if you copy and paste it all it does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizer Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Wathced the league two play off final between Stockport and Yeovil Town after the fa cup yesterday. The striker who scored the winner for Stockport,Liam Dickenson, looked quite decent, tall lad with really good feet - showed in his goal. If they dont win the final may be worth a wee look at buying http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_3/7393798.stm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc_don Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Stockport have had fairly decent strikers for the past two seasons. I think we should put in a cheeky wee bid for him. Is Jermain Easter still there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
