Welcome. He is a regular member of the Church of De Laeter Saints Apparently.

Agbonlahor is also a Mormon, I think I've heard.

Time to get the batteries changed. That sounds nothing like cretin.

Please don't.

The horrible beverage to which you refer was ultimately revealed to be nothing like what it pretended to be and in fact down right harmful.

I don't think I could cope with yet another fullback fulfilling that description.

If we can have long and meaningful debates on Off Topic about TCP and Germolene surely we can have an oblique reference to a popular drink that has not killed that many people.   I give it to my grandsons all the time.

I know what you're all thinking.  "What is that watch he's wearing as he stretches the shirt so enthusiastically while looking all the time like Spud from Trainspotting?"  Well, wonder no more, it's a Rolex Daytona with a black dial, and steel and yellow gold bracelet.  A notch below Chester's Patek Philippe, if I'm honest.

Anyway, watch twattery aside, he looks to have exactly the sort of experience we're crying out for, and once Amavi is up to speed we now look to have a highly improved back four.


I have a Rolex Daytona with a black dial to match the Ferrari Daytona on my drive. In my dreams.

I did have a vey good Rolex copy watch as a teenager that I bought in Singapore. It cost me £25. Which back then was pretty much a weeks YTS wages. I then went into the real watch shop and was quite impressed by how good a copy I had. I can't remember now how much the real one was but I think it was £25 multiplied quite a lot of times.

I also have a friend known to Paulie, Nev and Nodge who has a thing for expensive watches. At the last count I believe he had three watches that all cost him four figures. None of them keep the right time so he ends up having to look at his phone to see what time it is!

You could have opted for 'Angel' as in the blancmange substitute from the early '70s.  It might have made a few people sick but doubt it killed anybody

Brian, what the devil is supposed to be wrong with Germoline? I spent my childhood slathered in the unctuous stuff! Provided my mom could prize the flaming lid off.

Does the signing of Richtea mean we will soon be hobnobbing with the premiership elite again soon?

A sample of some of the comments from Foxes Talk about him, as I know absolutely nothing of him:

Quote
He exceeded my expectations and although not a top quality player, he definitely has quality for borderline Premier League football.

Quote
Was great for us in the Championship but frankly terrified me when he played in the Prem. Good luck RDL!

Quote
Good luck to Ritchie, a very good professional who had some great games at the club, including the 5-3 win over Man Utd (THAT ball to Vardy) and the 4-1 home win over Derby.

He will certainly do well I reckon, his pace is an asset getting up and down the line, good for overlaps. A move to the West Midlands in Aston Villa will be good for him.

Quote
Shocking positioning and defensive sense but more than enough pace to cover himself. Bit like Jeff really.

Easily good enough for a top six championship side, the right kind of signing for them.


Great signing for THEM? cheeky f***er

Yeah, who do they think they are, Premier League Champions or something?!!?

What they achieved was amazing but don't start belittling a Club you've spent most of your time below

Great song though.
