    Here's some irony for you:

    This time 12 months ago we went down to Fulham totally dispondant and basically miserable as the team put in an abysmal performance after selling our No.9 top striker.

    Fast forward 12 months and we will be heading down to Fulham with excitement and a genuine buzz about the team after buying a new no.9 (im assuming) and a top striker.

    Its amazing how things can change......lets hope we get a better performance and result.

    (All of the above is assuming he does actually sign....HOWAY!!!)

    Well he won't actually play against Fulham as he's still playing in ACoN. ;) But I get what you mean, a good turn around.

    It's a curious coincidence but not irony.

    Jesus Christ.

    I know he's not playing (my god) never said he was....Andy Carroll wouldnt have played last season either.

    Also.

    The fact the exact opposite of the football team's attitude will (may) be direct from buying a striker rather than selling one, in the very first game after the event, at the very same ground versus the same team...........is certainly a tad ironic.

    Come on boys.

    No, irony would be if you were arrested for rape and then got raped in jail.

    That's the worst example of irony since 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife.

    Steve Bruce saying he needed more time, even though he walked out on Wigan after 8 games, plus being sacked after losing to Wigan.....
