Thank you, but as usual you're wrong. The only football teams I have ever supported are Hull City, the teams I've coached, and my children's teams.
P.S. Back in the day when men were men, it was Bakelite.

Except for your confession that Liverpool are your 2nd team.

Who has a 2nd team? In your case it seems you have a 3rd a 4th and a 5th team.
 
First saw him play under 18's for Crewe v North Ferriby. Huge talent but thought/new he was the best player on the pitch by a mile when he continued to prat around trying to chip the keeper from the half way line he was taken off. Another player that's had it too easy too early and never put the hard yards in. He should really be on the fringes of the England squad but if he can't be bothered who can?

He's the next Michael Johnson of Man City.
 
We dont need Nick Powell as he's a midfielder, Bruce seems to have a thing about playing midfielders up front, to the point it's getting frustrating now, maybe he's fears losing Diame as I read we are in talks with a striker (Bamford. Would be my guess)
 
I don't get why people don't think Nick Powell wouldn't be more than decent for us? He's clearly very talented, 6 foot, a good turn of pace, is only what 22? And can only improve under a decent manager like SB, playing him behind Abel wouldn't be the worst position for him either, however saying all this I believe the most important signing for us would be proper striker. I'd love to see Bamford here but we'll probably end up with an ok 2nd or 3rd choice, fingers crossed.

Because he is a lazy, drunk prick.
 
I'd much rather of see a proper striker come in but I'm happy with Powell as a replacement. He's played a lot of games for Man U U21 as a striker and certainly has the build to be effective up top. He's got a lovely shot on him too. With his contract expiring in the summer if this enables us to sign such a promising player on a free then its a great bit of business.

As in he's an alcoholic. He was sent back from Leicester because of his poor attitude.

This isn't one of those ones to argue with me on, it's pretty well known. It's why he hasn't played much in the last few years.

Don't go accusing people you don't know of being alcohics, you ****ing moron,
 
Nick Powell is currently playing No.9 for Man Uinted U21's, presumably we've had him watched in his recent games and think he can do a job for us up front. It's disappointing, as he's obviously not an out and out striker, it's a pity we didn't go for James Wilson when we had the chance.

Warren Joyce said last month: "I know he played in midfield when he was younger. He is a good footballer he has got a lot to his game. Good feet, good range of passing, he is strong, he can head it, he can and he can score.

"There is a lot of things that can be utilised. It depends on the manager's choice as for him and the things you ask him to do.

"You can do a lot with him. He can lead the line, I've seen him play wide."

There's question marks over his attitude, following his poor loan at Leicester, but hopefully he's learned his lesson and feels he has something to prove.

Yep, hopefully he stays fit and focussed and helps contribute a few goals. Think there's more chance of Maloney staying fit though.
