Conor Hourihane - thanks and farewell

[ozzjim]

Our best signings last summer were an Albion reserve, a Middlesbrough squad player and a Bristol City player.  2 lads from Barnsley could be inspired.  We need players that will perform in this division.  By that token if Hourihane signs, we are buying statistically the best midfielder in the league this season.  Just a shame there is not a similar forward.  Have West Ham bought Hogan yet from Brentford?

Hogan was left out at the weekend but I think he is out of our price range

Too cheap?

[mr underhill]

indeed, we only specialize in Grade A, top end bellends

That would be like becoming Barnsleys Reserves on treble wages, wouldn't it ?
How sad that we see our way forward from buying up Barnsley..........OMG.
Whatever happened to Crewe and Sheffield Utd rezzers ?

head in hands ...

[Oscar Arce]

Hourihane is a good player, gets forward and creates and scores from midfield, we haven't had anyone like that for years.
He's on an upward curve in his career and would be perfect for us.

[Mostinho II]

I hope we sign him. Purely for the fact that I would like to sing "here I am, rock you like a Hourihane!" a la 80's rock band 'The Scorpions'.

Stop talking out of your arce Oscar...

Slash... I agree with you mate!  Fingers crossed.

No, because we're not buying reserve players, are we? We're buying two of their best players. Who gives a stuff where players come from as long as they are good players.

Platt from Crewe, Yorke off the beach, more recently Benteke from wherever the hell that was and Kodjia from Bristol City.
Other clubs, Kante from Caen, Vardy from Fleetwood and Dele Ali from MK Dons. I could go on.

[Dave P]

Chester from Smethwick.  The list goes on!

Hourihane may be close to signing but he has been pictured go karting with the Barnsley squad this afternoon

Medical tonight though so Karting in the day wouldn't be an issue

It will be if he fucks himself coming around a hairpin bend.

That would be quite a feat;-)

It's his leaving do.  They are having chicken in a basket afterwards at the Go Karting track.
