Parker was never coming unless in a pine box .............. Looks like were buying out the back of the truck ............ and the blo_ody thing is still moving !
Strange acquisition. I shall wait and see how he is deployed and how effective he is. Hopefully there's a plan in place - so if he signs.. Welcome and play with your head and your heart (and forget your pocket!)
Not sure where all this is heading if I'm honest Adel & mackie out of favour Sign Henry & Dunne - Christ why did we ever get rid of gorkss Persist with Zamora & AJ? Should have signed Rhodes We'll be a bunch of no talent 30yd hoofball cloggers at this rate
Signing him doesn't mean that he starts every, or even many, games: HR is building a squad. Remember Martin "mad dog" Allen? He was pretty inept as a footballer, but we never lost the midfield with him around. Perhaps this is a good signing, even though I still doubt it myself.
We haven't got rid of Barton yet. If he and Henry decide that, yes, they really don't like each other, the atmosphere in the dressing room will make last season look like a love-in.
Dunne & henry hardly the most mobile of defenders. Can see us being skinned by fast wingers With a less than commanding midfield - park, faurlin, jenas & granero - we're hardly giving much cover to the grandad brigade , unless of course Barton is staying but I have no idea where all of this is going
http://www.sportsdirectnews.com/football-league/28674-redknapp-to-diffuse-barton-henry-situation.php The interesting bit for me is the last quote whereby he says he does not really want to leave Wolves which means he does not really want to come to us. Just looks like a bad business for us. The only worse thinig he could do is sign the sewer rat!!
in his 30s - check cant play football - check has a history with several of our players - check complete prick - check midfielder that we dont need - check 7 figure fee for a shocking L1 player - check If this happens, Im done with games until Rednapp goes.
Henry is a holding midfielder. Suk Young and Danny Simpson are more than capable of handling fast wingers.
Yeah and m'bia is a holding midfielder too but he isn't is he? Please can someone list out current squad and do me a 'flyer' ie show m a formation of how this Abigail's Party of a squad will be deployed Yours losing the will to live in Sheffield In mitigation we're all out of coffee, it's p*ssing down and the kids are bored already with the summer holidays
Homage to an outstanding and totally apt metaphor with Abigail's Party. To make you feel better, I am attempting to work from home with wife and 2 kids present. Also happening - mad puppy Stan's natural pissing and ****ting zone is full of builders rubble and splinters as our attempt to remodel bathrooms now requires a steel to be inserted to prop up a roof (most of which is missing as we dodge the thunderstorms) with no visible means of support. A surprise expensive present not originally budgeted for. On the plus side the builders are good blokes and have got my 17 year old son labouring for them, recycling my money in an imaginative way, to someone who definitively can't be trusted with it.
