Parky

I reckon he made mad demands to scare Benfica off.

I reckon we'll sign him.

He said the breakfast in the hotel that morning was a disgrace.

Williamson doesn't look out of place in the PL, could turn out to be a real steal.

I thought that Nolan was at fault for the first goal, he absolutely bottled it and passed the ball to somebody in a worse position than his own. That's bollocks mate, sorry. Gutierrez got mugged. ...while checking his pony tail was in order.

My thoughts entirely. Players like this at these prices don't come along often.

That'd be a bit deep for Nolan He's quite a bright lad apparently.

Think it will be sorted by Tue.

This is typical French behaviour on the part of their chairman, one moment it's all gallic superiority complex, then when things seem to be going against them (ie Bafra says fuck you I'm off!), it's all 'let's talk, doesn't the moon look good on the river tonight etc...Deschamps has totally misread Bafra and I think they thought they could well do without him, but now they're not so sure. Fuck them!

Jack Wilshire starts, this should be interrsting.

do you reckon i'll be able to learn french in time for this, bearing in mind my french is quite limited unless the dog is actually on or under the table ? Ah beer silverplate. vin,actuallemons. Vin rouge? Parfaaaye!

Fixed your post, fwap fwap fwap. FYp

That looks nice. But it will end up more like this... ----------------Carroll------------- ----------------Bafra-------------- ---Guti---- --Ricky-----------------------Routledge -------------Barton---Nolan--------------Perch --------------------Collo----

What was that exactly? He said something about playing him in a free role or something did he? I started reading the Ben Arfa interview but my eyes began to vomit. Well it's not clear what was said, but obviously it was exciting enough to convince the player to want to come here and play for us. Also obviously implies Hughton wants a player in that über-creative mould in the team.

Hughton the love god.

More or less my positon.

Even if he turns out to be a bit shit I'd still like him because he's a committed lefty

Or a mental spacker. We need one, especially one with a sweet left foot and the ability to pass a football.

Reading that think Dave posted shows how emotional he is about the situation and that he is a deep thinker a la renegade. Love it.

Good read. And I've never denied he is very likeable and has good background knowledge.

This kid could be the difference between staying up and going down IMO.

Wigan's 2nd game as at home to Chelsea, which gives us even more breathing space.
