Your avatar apparantly those hot pants are falling apart i read something in the paper, they have to be handled by people wearing specail gloves as not to remove the gold colouring from them
Richards is one of the few who I wouldn't want to sign....the others being..... Richards first........not good enough in this league so what will happen if we go up....... we will need at least 2 more strikers. Hayes.......heard some good reports about him from past few matches which I have missed....but for me, the jury is still out on this player Paul Read.....good player....injury prone .......get rid Mat Carbon.....good player....injury prone .......get rid
You serious? I disagree with you..... So if tha sayin Reid & Carbon to go, who ya gunna play CB? Bazza & Vaughan to go
RE: Richards is one of the few who I wouldn't want to sign....the others being..... If you think we should get rid of Hayes, Carbon and Reid you havent been to many games this season. "Jury still out on Hayes" - he is our top scorer FACT and prob has the most assists. Great signing from Ritchie. Your post should be deleted for the level of ******** it contains.
RE: Richards is one of the few who I wouldn't want to sign....the others being..... the only thing he missed was "Devaney is shi*t and we should get rid"
RE: Richards is one of the few who I wouldn't want to sign....the others being..... to be fair i may have to agree about Richards but as for Reid Carobn and Hayes.
Explanation here............... Hayes.......how many on here were pulling Hayes to peices only a few weeks ago Last game I saw was Tranmere at home I haven't seen the last few matches but up to that time Hayes was terrible As for Reid and Carbon..I have said all along that if these 2 played together on a regular basis we would now be top of the league Problem is.....how many times have they started together this season??????? We haven't any real cover for these 2 Kay is not a central defender Hassel is too small So I would get rid of Reid and Carbon and bring 2 experienced (early 30s) centre halves in that play week in week out Alternatively ...bring 2 more centre halves in and have Reid and Carbon in the reserves.......just in case they feel like playing at some point in their career
RE: Explanation here............... Fair enough. I can understand you if the last game you saw was Tranmere. Basially Hayes is on fire. He had the game of his life against Scunny, scoring and assisting 2/3. This with his 2 goals against Bradford. The jury isnt still out on him. Reid and Carbon are 2 of the best central dfenders in this division (on their day). hopefully they will start together against Hartlepool.
RE: Explanation here............... 5th in league 3rd round in the cup,best squad we,ve had for years and you want to dismantle it and replace the players with who may I ask seen as most of the players are under contract and we're skint,abart time some folk got real!
Who says we are skint ??? !!!! The Chairman of the club dunt say we are skint In fact he says the opposite..the club is constantly looking to strengthen the squad As for the team.......I think we are lacking at central defence and the forward line The spine of the team is not ready for promotion This may prove to be costly this season
I quite happy with that, he plays for the club,works hard , is still young,fits in with the squad,is looking to achieve and doesn't want an arm and a leg for the opportunity to do so.. I would offer him a two year deal though, not sure what they mean by (long term deal)....five years?
RE: Richards is one of the few who I wouldn't want to sign....the others being..... Reid is fantastic!
hopefully a contract until the end of the season. I dont think hes done enough (5 goals in 20) for a 2 year + contract.
as far as I'm aware, he's currently buying a house next door to Antony Kay (who lives next door to a family member of mine) - so, it looks likely it'll happen eh!!?!?
Monk Bretton That new estate. Brian Howard lives on that road, as well a friend of mine who plays for wednesday
RE: Richards is one of the few who I wouldn't want to sign....the others being..... Young Nudger, young probably, but with very little Brain or a total lack of knowledge of the the great game. Richards, although not the best of forwards, still as a lot to offer, and is a very hard working, still young enough to improve. Which he no doubt will. Hayes is a first rate forward, he is frustrated because he his not getting the supply of passes to his feet which he wants all the time to make him a great forward.Paul Read is a young defender, and a good one at that, sooner have him on our side, than of the oppositions. And as for Carbon, ok.he his injury prone but how many times has he been the man of the match when he as played. Go and lie down Nudger, play with thi ****, and stop dreaming things up that tha knows **** all about.
Quatermass........if I didn,t know owt.....how come I have been saying that we need 2 central defenders all season, ask around, other people on here will put thi straight And how come recently I have been saying we need another attacker And then What does Ritchie do......... Signs Watt...... a central defender And then shockingly,tries to sign an attacker in the last transfer window but fails Please think before you print
