Quote

 

“Lee Bowyer’s come in and he’s got his shirt ripped, so I’m thinking Lee Bowyer has obviously had a fight with someone in their team on the pitch and Kieron Dyer, as a team-mate, has helped him out and looked after him.

“Until I heard Lee Bowyer say to Kieron Dyer ‘you can’t punch’.

“I walked into the players lounge and watched it on the plasma and when I had saw what had gone on, I’ll be honest, I was absolutely delighted.

“The pressure was taken right off me and the manager came in and dragged those two out to the media to explain themselves.

^^ that's hilarious

 

He's right - everyone semi-forgot that ridiculous handball.

 

What a shambles the club has been man.

 

Taylor looks good mind. The middle-east lifestyle can be a great one for "ex-pats". High quality of life with capped hedonism.

 

One of my favourites. I remember they put this as a Club statement on the website literally just saying this sentence. :lol:

I always thought that scrapping incident stemmed from Souness.

The vibe across the club really changed once he replaced Robson and that game really epitomised it. 

 

But we needed an authoritarian in to get the lads back on the straight and narrow! 

 

Maybe we didn't go authoritarian enough? Makes you think.

Also I'm sure someone in the club called HTT campaigning for Ottmar Hitzfeld a betting scam :lol: 

 

Fans wanting a real manager was a betting scam. Wouldn't have been out of place in the Ashley dictatorship.

That was our chairman Freddy Shepherd unbelievably.

Wasn't on the forum back then so possibly misremembering forum lore but weren't there members on here that were pretty heavily behind that Hitzfeld campaign?

 

EDIT: Was reading on the move and didn't realise Skeletor already said it was HTT. :lol:
