Nest to the man/woman in blue is that a transvestite or a post-op woman?

Hayley Cropper is an icon in Swindon.

The bird behind Sean Dyche is tidy.

Mind the trams, Len.

Don't you mean Alan?

Yes, and that's totally bollocksed my attempted gag

Serves you right. Anyway, she looks about 18/20 to me.

You should have a go at defending Adam Johnson

Steady on.

Talking of signing other Belgians, I'd really like us to have a look at this guy.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32728460

I know it's not a position we're currently short in, but he can play centre-back or right-back, is only 26 and I've been impressed whenever I've seen him play.

Yeah, he's quality. Pretty sure he's going back to Atletico next season and Southampton would be ahead of us in the queue anyway.

Just been watching Paul Lambert in the Sky studio interviewed about Christian Benteke and he said that offers came in every year for the big man but persuaded him to stay at Villa and a giant club will come in for him, also said that £30m would only buy his right boot.

the one thing I will never ever criticise Lambert for is how he managed to persuade Benteke to stay and extend his contract. It looked a done deal that he was off then as if by magic it was announced he'd extended. It was surreal how it all came together all of a sudden.

I would like us to sign Begovic as our first choice keeper. He will be available.

Begovic was meant to be going back to Man City a couple of years ago but their change of manager scuppered that. They had spent a fair bit on Jack Butland for his to be his replacement and have ended up using his as back-up or loaning him out. If we were to go after a keeper he would be a good choice. It wouldn't be a priority position for me though, Guzan will come back stronger from being dropped and we have other positions that need to be improved on.

Lambert's transfer policy stands up imo, whenever he spent more than league one levels of money on a player they turned out well, just a shame he didn't have a clue what to do with them once they were here.

Not a big fan of his regardless. But we most definitely should avoid him now. I'd be going all out to keep TC here.
