I quite agree (except McShane has played well this year, which we are all surprised at!). Hobbs in particular has been a great signing. In return I think we can definitely let you have Olofinjana, McKenna, Cullen and Stewart for £300,000 all in. Nice to have a good relationship again!
I can't see why a player would want to sign for us knowing he would be fourth choice. Seems unlikely to me but stranger things have happened.
To be fair, it's one thing a 50-odd year old bloke being a bit porky. It's another if a 21 year old football player who's paid to be an athlete is.
Cloughy and Fergie were/are hardly at the peak of their physical condition as managers but they're still probably the 2 greatest manager of all-time. If Bruce goes the same way then I don't mind him over-doing it a little on the pie front.
To be fair, it was a light hearted joke. I'm well aware that it's one thing a 50 year old being well over weight isn't the same as a 21 year old footballer who has had a pudding over christmas.
Had a Balti pie at half time yesterday and missed the first 10 minutes of the second half thanks to the useless muppets who work in the concourse at the King Power, ffs don't the club realise its going to be busy at half time?
