Tsunami Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Still got my Sombrero up in the loft. Can't believe we managed to go the whole day without knowing it had been postponed until we got to the ground only to find nobody else was there. That's what drinking does for you.

Varadi Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Still got my Sombrero up in the loft. Can't believe we managed to go the whole day without knowing it had been postponed until we got to the ground only to find nobody else was there. That's what drinking does for you. We were in the ground before we found out as well, were wondering why it was so empty. Had to immediately race back into town to change flights so we could stay for the next night.

Ronaldo Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Lua Lua didn't, of course, have the benefit of being wheeled out to play 5 years after his sell-by date. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Thought Robson treated Lua Lua very badly in the latter of his time here, we rightly got bitten in the arse with his loan to Portsmouth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Thought Robson treated Lua Lua very badly in the latter of his time here, we rightly got bitten in the arse with his loan to Portsmouth. Sure it was over his celebrations, Bobby asked him to stop it in case he injured himself, Lua Lua decided to ignore that advice. As much as we all love Bobby, he had some weird grudges and hangups such as Solano playing the trumpet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 SAF told Nani to stop doing a similar celebration for the exact same reason and he did. Any player with any respect towards the manager would stop if asked. Left Bobby with no choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I'd say having a burning and unflinching desire to do backflips after every goal is an even weirder hangup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 It wasn't even over the backflips, it was to do with a reserve game he was playing in, robson got the hump because of his attitude in that game. With Nobby it was to do with him reversing his decision to retire from International football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Solano should never have been put in the situation where he was made to consider his international career tbf. Bet he never told Romario or Ronaldo that he wasn't happy that they went to Brazil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Solano should never have been put in the situation where he was made to consider his international career tbf. Bet he never told Romario or Ronaldo that he wasn't happy that they went to Brazil. Peru didn't have a cat's chance in hell of qualifying, I think SBR said. I see his point in a way. If Nobby told him he was retiring from international football and SBR made decisions on the basis of that, Solano reneging on that isn't right.

pbxtn Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 On Solano Bobby actually said we gave Nobby a new contract on the basis he would cut down on international football by not playing in their many friendlies. He agreed then carried on playing in them anyway. I've just finished reading Bobby's autobiography, he says about Nobby that he "was a smashing boy and I liked him very much".

Disco Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Solano was pretty much king of Peru like, of course he liked going back there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Bobby loved Nobby, but at that time you can't be agreeing to that in your contract and then reverse it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Bobby loved Nobby, but at that time you can't be agreeing to that in your contract and then reverse it. A former international manager shouldn't have been asking any player not to play for his country, Bobby was wrong to do so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbxtn Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 He was only asking a guaranteed starter in competitive games not to play in all friendlies because he was at an age where he couldn't play on a Wednesday for Peru and arrive back on a Friday night then play for us on a Saturday. Not unreasonable. He agreed to do it remember. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Shola is into his 30's, he is well off. He's not going to get as good an offer to play for anyone as he has from Bolton. He should be playing for free until the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
