Monday:

"Just soft tissue damage"

Wednesday:

"The amputation was a succes"

... and they are hopeful of saving the other leg.

blokes had his leg amputated in hospital
doctor says i have some good news and bad news

the bad news is we've amputated the wrong leg
the good news is your bad legs getting better

boom boom

The way I heard that one was:

Man comes 'round after surgery to remove his leg and the surgeon is there and says to him ' I've some good news and some bad news, the bad news is we amputated the wrong leg and then had to amputate the other.  The good news is, the bloke in the next bed wants to buy your slippers'.

On average he won more aerial duels per game than Mings last season.

I bet he's been all over Google Maps, saw there was a Primark at the Fort and thought "Yes, I'm fucking in"

You may mock but I once saw Uncle Albert shopping in Next at The Fort. I thought millionaire footballers might shop somewhere a bit more exclusive that that.

You might think that, but I ran into Torres' (former?) teammate, Gérard Moreno, at the weekend as we are staying at the same campsite near Tarragona! Surely he should be in St. Lucia or Belize or somewhere like that!?

Did you not recommend Tramore to him?

Only for the races. Clonea for camping.

And the bloke in the next bed has offered you a tenner for your trainers

I suppose when we see all the promo photos, interviews, shirt stretching etc this is what is taking all the bloody time.

Frustrating though as they could of announced it long before now as they did with Tielimans who did not appear for ages after the announcement

[AV84]

Maybe there really is another exciting big name European player being unveiled today and they're doing them both together.

[sid1964]

Probably awaiting the results of his medical before confirming his arrival

They announced that one after 1/7 as that was when he 'officially signed' and his contract started.

Ah, those halcyon O'Neill days of "how many chairs are there at the press conference?" to work out how many players we were announcing on that day.

It was always either zero or Marlon Harewood.

Beat me to it. The signing two players at once always gets a run out, without ever actually happening.

When was the last time we had two in the same day? Last I can remember off the top of my head was Callaghan and Ormondroyd

[andyh]

We know its happening.
