More questions

Is James Chester time with us over?

Is Rushian Hepburn-Murphy made of glass?

How bad is James Bree?

How good is Dominic Revan?

Will Frederic Guilbert be a hit or a miss?



Ffs stop writing Chessie off!!

Sorry just asking the question......We have 74 centre backs and you know that Steve Bruce loves him and he would walk into any championship club who would give him a 3-year contract when he only has one year left with us.

Londonvilla, Steve Bruce isn't at a Championship club!  You're right about Chester walking into any Champ club though.

You know what I mean he was at Sheffield Wednesday and now he's at Newcastle and he likes to have all his favourites around him

I don't know if it is a case of Bruce constantly surrounding himself with his favourite players or more the fact that he has signed so many players for so many clubs in his journeyman managerial career that there are very few players in English football who he hasn't managed at some point!

You would need to be pretty desperate to swap Villa  for Steve Bruce’s Toon Army.

Not if you are injured and a mug is going to give you a 4 year contact.

Interesting point though. If Bruce becomes the Noocassil manager I wonder will he sniff around the likes of Chester and as Footy Skills (whither to, btw?) refers to, his "Egyptian son", Elmo.

You mean when do we funeral them?

I thought promotion might bring back some of H&V's cheerful global comrades (Saranyu, Tsvet, SeattleVillain, er Villadawg) but it seems they all have fulfilling lives. Bastards.

Does the SSN transfer window countdown really need to have minutes, seconds...and 1/100th second?!

Footy Skills (whither to, btw?)
I believe he has resumed his role playing Milhouse in the Simpsons.
In a strange way I rather miss his garbled nonsense.
