    Is Carillo our (all things considered) worst signing ever?


    Must say I'm struggling to think of a worse one.

    He was barely a signing. More a deluded show of support.
    A most costly mistake.

    Nice thought, but what they actually do is **** little clubs.
    Tommy F has got to be right up there. We couldn't even loan that ****er out

    Antony Pulis.

    Nah, that's unfair, he has given us some comedy gold over the years! <laugh>

    Especially when you consider we got him instead of the sell on clause for Bale, only cost us £20m in the end, more expensive than Carrillo

    If I was picking the team to get the bye, they would have been a worthy mention.

    Could be good timing with all that's going on here.

    Always felt we knee jerked reacted with that one.

    Maybe he'll replace Jackett when the blue few get rid?

    What a draw for Chichester one of my mates is a director at the club and has invested quite a bit of money and time into them. They have also come out and will make a donation from the £36k they get to bury football club. This is a non league club with very little money making a donation to a football club that has just gone out of business while the rest of the football world did nothing.

    Should have quit when hope ran out here. I guess they didn't pay as much.
