January Transfer Window - Rumours, Links, B*llsh*t and Made-Up Nonsense

[The Left Side]

Don't shoot the messenger......Joey Barton linked to us in the People

Isn't the worst idea I've ever heard. *runs*

Ah great to see the People is up to it's usual standards!

In terms of quality of player...

That type of player yes, but not him. In other words his on field antics I could accept but not his off field ones. We are already trying to offload one nut job.

Don't tell anyone but I know for a fact David Beckham is in Birmingham tonight.

What?

Stephen Ireland.

He sure has made a contribution... to HMRC!

My sister just told me AP McCoy won, fair play to him... apparently he won a lot this year!

His horse did. He was just the little berk weighing it down a bit.
Should have given it to the horse(s). Ridiculous award.

In the same way that a Formula 1 driver is just weighing the car down.

Bang on.

How good was Houllier's transfer record at Liverpool (and for the John Blackwell usurpers out there, at Lyon)? I remember a lot of third-rate shite - Titi Camara, Eric Meijer, Diao, Diouf, Biscan etc. Did he buy Nick Barmby aswell? He wasn't so bad but I don't remember there being that many unqualified successes.

No not at all. A Formula one car is not an animal with a mind and will of its own.
It cannot win on its own. It is completely dependent on the skill of the driver. It is "equpiment".

Sorry, even though I was being deliberately flippent and mishceivous, I'm not having it. When you have the world's best spin bowler, a champion multi-discipline athlete, a world heavyweight boxing champion amongst others as competition, I cant believe they gave it to a glorified horse ornament.
Just my opinion. Nobody has to agree with it.

Not ever imagining I could usurp the Blackwell....but it seems that Houllier signed amongst others:

John Carew
Fred
Thiago
Nilmar (on loan)
Jeremy Toulalon
Alou Diarra
Kim Kallstrom
Sébastien Squillaci
and Milan Baros...

He also gave Loic Remy his break through as a 19 year old. Looking at the lists of ins and outs, it's clear to see that he a) likes to mark his own stamp on a club and b) likes to promote from the youth team! Both fairly promising signs for the future. Plus he seems to have a liking for Defensive Midfielders and Strikers!!

According to the Sun we are sending Lowry out to Wednesday on loan.
