You'd only end up losing in a poker game with Ali Osman's brother.

Kevin Davies is our level, you mark my words, he's scampering down the M6 as we speak.

He's been nowhere near the first team anyway. I doubt it means we've got a striker coming in.

Robinson being recalled was just bizarre and more chaotic thinking.

It's the thing that makes me retch more than anything surrounding deadline day - this hero worship of that Jim White twat. He's beyond embarrassing.

Did you know (and I promise you this is 100% true) that the major bookies take bets on what colour ties he will wear on deadline day.

I was in my local bookies the other day and I saw special betting slips on the counter for who killed Lucy Beale off Eastenders.  It's not even a fucking real person!

I could have had a double on blue* and Nick Cotton.

I mean the colour blue for Jim's tie, not a has been boy band helping Nick Cotton kill Lucy Beale.

Could you put me a fiver on Red and Wilmott Brown?


If I was in charge of the BBC, on the Football Focus Deadline Special tonight I would have Dan Walker wearing a tie with all the Lucy Beale suspects on it. 'Av some of that Jim White!

If was in charge of the BBC, on the Football Focus Deadline Special, I'd have Lucy Beale hosting it calling Jim White a twat every five minutes.


Every five minutes is a long way off beating the record for calling Jim White a twat.

I can just imagine us on the phone trying to convince Lambert to sign. The promise of a mountain of goal scoring chances and liquid football.

He'll get more chances to score sat in his Liverpool pyjamas at home than on the pitch for us.

From BBC Sport website:

"Four Football League transfers to tell you about. Wigan have signed the wonderfully-named Gaetan Bong, a Cameroon international defender who was a free agent after leaving Greek side Olympiakos."

If only he'd been around when Kevin Phillips was playing.

I don't know, it must be close to the longest most sane people can manage.

Not really as with injuries and suspensions we'd have had no striker on the bench without him.

Collymore reckons the Lambert deal is on if Villa pay the bulk of the fee upfront now.

Sky reckon theres something in it as well.
We're desperate and we need someone in. Pay the money and get him in.

He's only been on the bench a couple of times though since he's been back and he only came back because Bent went to Derby.

Yeah I don't remember him being named in the first team squad very often.

Hopefully this is the last roll of the dice of the Lambert regime.
