Good evening.
Tom Collomosse at the Evening Standard says we’re knee deep in negotiations for the Blackburn pairing of Samba and Hoilett.
Samba strikes me as worth a punt. If only on the basis that I like so many were so woefully wide of the mark on Pathe News Boy it might just as we sit nose-bleeding in the Barclays Premier League to give Arry the benefit of the doubt.
Samba is apparently a neat fit money wise my boy. It’s guessed he’s currently on about £55K pwk. Which immediately has me asking what in the name of Colonel Sanders are those clowns playing at up there? But that’s another blog for another blogger.
Hoilett is also named. But there have been ten articles a day for the last month saying that he’s going to be the subject of an imminent mega-bid for the last two months, maybe more.
His he yet another of these yoofstar players who half demonstrate that they can half kick a ball and are quite suddenly supposedly worth twice a king’s ransom? If we took this kid in I would expect the figure for him to reflect his worth now and not some La La Land vision of a future figure.
Elsewhere Alex McLeish has emphatically declared that Baron Dent is not for sale. Mind you he also referred to him as a ‘prolific marksman’. The tale has gathered momentum as the buck toothed negrito lover is on his ban and Andy Carroll is suffering from bad case of Cow’s Anus And Banjo Syndrome.
Here’s a suggestion. I predict that Arry is quoted saying he’s a top, top player within the next fortnight and we are linked with the donkey.
Tompkins is another name is being mumbled. I’m told that the player has the same agent as Fat Sam and this is the source for the rumour that a transfer request has been handed in.
David Gold of course has stepped in and started talking up the price with a load of twaddle about Tompkins being the son of Christ returned, a valued product of their acadamy system, that sort of thing. A bid of £2.5M from the Bar Codes was allegedly declined.
Oh and this is worth a listen HERE
As a 11- 12 year old I used to score bundles of goals every week, without fail. So I wrote to Barnados to say that I would raise money for them with a sponsored goal thing. They wrote back thanking me.
I never scored another goal that season. Jinxed. Couldn’t deal with the pressure.
Just seen HR say in the Sporting Life that he is reluctant to let any squad player go.
Obviously all of us who have already prepared P.45’s for Pav, Rose, Niko, Piennar et al, are bound to say that HR doesn’t know what he is talking about.
It does seem amazing that most of us are thinking in terms of we need maybe two players but many think we need to get rid of eight or so.
I’ve said in the past that I am still not convinced that HR is the real deal, but I am glad he is managing us, rather than most of the posters here.
arry plays both ends against the middle, good cop bad cop type of thing. doesnt like to burn his bridges.bit of wheeler n dealer if you get my drift.
he also likes to say fackin a lot as well :freu
For once I can’t fault his logic. Ade is ruled out of the game against Shitty. I think that if Ade can’t play, then the options are 4-4-2 because neither JD or Def can lead the line of 4-5-1.
Still: assume we stick with 4-5-1 against Shitty, and we sell Pav, and Def gets injured. Right now with our CB probs, I’d keep Bassong. Similarly, if Ade can’t play, selling Pav leaves us one recognised striker.
I would sell Pienaar because he doesn’t add anything, and that’s about it…I would however, put J**** and Bentley out to pasture….as soon as is humanly possible and if that doesn’t work then as soon as is in-humanly possible….
Stick an ‘e’ in and my last post will make sense… :blush:
I generally think your posts require at least one ‘e’ to have them make sense. Sometimes 2 e’s and a trip. Then everything makes sense. :wub: :freu
Just saying..
Maybe if I didn’t take one before writing them, that would make it easier for you? ^^
@Hartley.
With or without an “e”, your post makes sense to me as fas J**** is concerned at least.
