Must just be the games I've seen him, largely passed him by without doing much good or bad. Like I viewed Hayden for us.

He's better than many in here are giving him credit for and that may be skewed by his twattishness but should he come here he's our twat and we love it when ours do it. There was a bit of buzz about him before Evertons implosion and, for me, he was their one real threat in the game up here last season. He would fit into our style of decent on the ball and willing to give it all on the pitch effectively but, I'd hoped we were aiming a bit higher given our position and he would be an addition to the squad rather than automatic starter which I feel we need right now.

Should be made to keep Bentacur as punishment from what I've seen of him at Spurs.

I wonder if there was ever the thought to bring in a rule half way through the season specifically to stop Chelsea going on the type of spree they are on ? Are there any instances of the Premier league doing that, you know like, part way through a season to stop one particular club ?

Yeah he's been gone too long. (I know but it just sat up begging for it)

It's like that episode of Auf Pet when Wayne had got them kicked out of the Barley Mow. They're having a break outside Thornley Manor and just as Wayne is going to reach for a sarnie, Barry dives in to take it to teach him a lesson.

I'm sure he's mentioned it in his time here as well, that we may need to sell a star if its right for the club and that the plan is to have replacements ready.

The way we're led to believe Ashworth works is that there's replacements lined up for everyone just in case that ridiculous bid comes in that we can't turn down.

Those odds will still reflect the good possibility that he won't start. I'd jump straight on that as soon as the teams are announced should he start.

15mill seems high. I wonder what needs to happen for them to be obligated.

And still probably the worst 4 strikers in my lifetime.......Rob Macdonald, Ray Clarke and Bobby Shinton and Billy Rafferty.

It's only true if you know nothing of our history.

Not sure we are so not sure we will.

I think he is parodying.

Quite a lot from all over the world who I assumed were local or at least ex local Handy to get in before you can be accused of being a glory hunter though

Just signed contracts on board you say ?

He might've wanted to know what it's like going to the dunny without the fear of being killed by a spider or a snake.

They're not like. Heplping your team win games is, although it's pretty hard to measure. It's why for all Andy Cole outscored Sir Les most would still pick Sir Les over him.

Go on.......

Dunno like, the majority class themselves as Geordies.

Aye, I'm still about 5% believing he's really a welder form Killingworth.

A lot of the glory hunter(Liverpool, Leeds, Forest) supporters from school ended up following us when they got to the age to go to games with their mates. When it became more than a match, it was a day out with mates, especially when you start doing aways.

I'll often ask why people from outside the area support us, it's not in a checking if they're legit way and the fact we've hardly been successful gets rid of the "glory hunter" idea, but some of the stories are great, family histories, pure flukes and are more interesting than "it's my hometown club and the family have for years".

Best I can find is highlights on Sportscene BBC Scotland 11pm. Probably get more on YT.

What we are wanting to do and will be able to do may not be the same thing
