Schmeichel was crap for us too.

He wasn't crap when he first arrived, he had a good start. His problem was he soon lost interest, as he did at Sporting before and thereafter was crap.

Do you remember this?
<<utube clip>>

I was stuck in a massive traffic jam in Wooton Basset trying to get back from a holiday in Cornwall listening to the radio commentary.  The motorway was shut down because some bright spark was holed up in a service station with a hostage.     

How did it finish up?

Pretty sure we lost 3-2.

We did lose 3-2 after being 3-0 down. It was our first defeat of the season, we'd already won at Anfield and had been going like a train.

I hope Bent and Bannan go on and do well wherever they go. I like them both as footballers. There's a really good player in Bannan somewhere and maybe a move might do him good in the long run. As for Ireland, I think that perfomance against Bradford at home made a few peoples minds up about him.

Yeah clampy, sort of with you on that, seem to be 2 genuine guys wanting to play footsie.
Unfortunately no longer fit the bill at VP.
Unsure whether Bannan will make it, I hope so, but see him bouncing around the championship teams. He needs to add a few pounds of muscle, he is a tiny wee thing.
As for Bent, undoubtedly a goal poacher, but again with our new regime, we need a striker who can make runs, see a pass, hold the ball up, which is what we have in Benteke, Bent sometimes is a little laid back for my liking, but like the guy.

Really hope they get the moves they need and wish em all the best, but Ireland can suck on my rather large one the cheese sucking bum fcuker...

Yeah I remember Gazza was on the bench for them.

I thought Percy was enquiring how the hostage situation finished-up cos he's into that sort of thing.

We were top before that Everton game (and until Nov I think when we got hammered 3-0 at Newcastle)
Villa under Gregory...start like a train, have a mid-season like a car crash and end up 6th or 8th.

Another season loan. So we'll still be stuck with him next summer. Christ almighty. Our recruitment policy 2010-2012 was fucking horrendous.

I am sure that Hutton said that he only had 1 year left on his contract?

It is dreadful to think of the money that the club / lerner has wasted in salaries and transfer fees in recent years!

We definitely lost 3-2 to Everton, that stoppage time goal being a consolation really - I was in Blackpool with 2 mates at the time.

HAVE YOU EVER SCORED A GOAL AT ANY LEVEL OF FOOTBALL?

Spurs want you as their new centre forward!
