What is  ''we desperately need a striker'', in Latin?

Nobis necesse est proven goalscorer innit.

Not that I mind, I always thought it was a bit of a naff motif. I'd have preferred something fancy in Latin.
Mea culpa, perhaps.
I love the history behind "Prepared"

According to Google Translate ‘African Car Reverser’ comes out as ‘African Car Reverser’ in Latin, which is rather disappointing.

Pretty sure African is "Africanus", as in Scipio Africanus. The bush kangaroo.

Only just found out that the Louie Barry signing has made Albion mad, which cheered me up a bit on this rainy day.

Don't be so patronising.

ha ha I’m laughing by bollocks of reading that

Drumond calling someone else out for being patronising lots of kettles and pots come to mind
I do love you Drum bit that’s got to be a contender for ironic post of the year so far

Fuck off John

How about you both knock it off before we do it for you, you've both been here long enough to know this isn't tolerated, you can both consider it a final warning.

We already denied our interest and Tottenham are after him. So going to guess at no.

As we like signing players that haven't played for yonks we should sign free agent Wilfried Bony.
