There are many well documented examples of people changing their names and changing themselves.  I suggest as one last effort of redemption that Westwood should change his name to Eastwood.

I always liked NRC's attitude, he seemed to be a natural leader, had positional discipline and fought for every ball. I was rather less keen on him when he actually had the ball for the few moments before he gave it away.

Good call Mr G. Perhaps a change to Goodwood might get him a game with Goodwood Utd (if they're still struggling for numbers).

I think somebody cloned NRC. His names is Sanchez. Didn't quite get the hair right.

Auntie I was thinking that as he pointed he could say "this is a 44 Magnum the most powerful handgun in the world".

Still tumbleweed blowing through here then. FFS, inaction, prevarication, and disinterest seems hardwired into the club's DNA.

You can't expect the club to attempt to buy our way out of trouble when we're staring relegation in the face. It's only our pride and our Premier League status at risk after all.

Serious question SH - where is the money going to come from, who is going to pay the wages for players to come in our position as they are likely to be highly inflated, how are you going to convince the player to sign here and not elsewhere, and who is going to fund their wages when we go down if we still do??

When's this Croatian lad joining? We could have done with a big bugger in goal against Albion.

If you are a Premier League standard player looking for a move, there wont be too many worse options than Villa at the moment, I expect very little incoming business and all of that on the last day when all other options are exhausted for players.

Waiting on a work permit according to the papers. Probably next week I'd have thought.

Croatian press suggest his work permit has been rejected but that we will win on appeal.

You expect him to answer. Be a first.

I'd like our glorious owner to spend a few quid this January. Where did you think the money would come from, did you really not know?
