It's the Cahill decision that mystified me the most.

Pissed me off no end, I'm sure at the time he wanted Cuellar as centre back instead.

Gary Penrice didn’t play much did he? I can think of a handful of appearances back end of Dr Jo season and then one goal and a handful of games under BFR.

It was a bit like George Best playing for Hibs.

Only a few games but left an indelible mark on all of them.

Quality not quantity.

Kachloul in MONs time? Don't think so. He was long gone.

On Facebook the Tanzanians are all wishing triple relegations on us for the mistreatment of their hero & someone responded that they ‘couldn’t give a monkeys’ what the Tanzanians thought.

It has apparently gone through google translates as something along the lines of ‘Your mother is a monkey’ & there was quite the tiff about racism for a moment!

He was good for the first few games. A Southampton mate told me “just wait until the sun stops shining and see what he’s like then”. I thought there was just a lot of resentment as he’d left them. Turned out he was bang on.

Wasn't there a rumour about Hadji having a bonus if he played 50 games for us, so he was stuck on 49 appearances?

Panic buy and a gamble. But we were desperate for a striker. Wish him the best.
