I make no apologies for being sentimental about football. Not one. I grew up in a different era and we all had fav players and cottoned onto them for life. I had the likes of Agboola, Marco, Armstrong and Vennison for the lads. Platini, Maradona etc for others. Van Basten and Gullit for the Milan team. I latched on to each and got emotionally attached. So many others I could go on for ever.

With Dan Neil I have done the same. I have down the years with players. I could talk about Gazza forever. Rigg is the next. That makes me bias, absolutely. But for me it is why the game is so beutiful. I love football players. They give me so much pleasure. They are like artists or musicians. They give me such joy. I only ever coached because I wanted to see talent given a fair crack. And I mean talent not anything else.

I naturally want to see these players play. It is a love affair for me. If they arent right for my club I cant love them less. Italy is the romantic home of football, along with Brazil. If I can watch Dan play anywhere other than us it will be there. Every game I can.

I would absolutely love to see Dan adored by the mad ****s over in Italy like they've taken to mctominay and Gilmour.

Are we in danger of throwing the baby out with the bath water with these lads.
We all got excited, off the scale with some...when we thought we were getting one of two better keepers than Patto...We haven't got any so far.
We've signed others and straight away lads who got us promoted aren't good enough for the task ahead etc and so on.
I'm not saying we don't need a better squad but surely the lads who got us over the line deserve our respect and the opportunity to show us whether their up to the task or not.
The spirit amongst that squad is worth a lot but some on here would seemingly chuck it all away in the lust for points next season and I find that extremely sad.....maybes I'm too long in the tooth for today's must have it now fans. Just give these lads the chance they do richly deserve.

I don’t think anybody wants any of them sold, so no babies being thrown out!!

they should all stay and fight for their places like the new signings will.

This is what I mean it’s as if because we are making new signings that these lads have to leave, they just become depth and competition which is right? That’s how you strengthen

agree and they don’t even necessarily get bundled as the “depth” option.

I would not be surprised if our midfield 3 on opening day were Neil, Rigg and ELF. The two newbies on the bench.

Pembele was still worth the risk, was class before his shocking injury - never been the same since

Did he get inured with us or sign after an injury, can't remember. I do know a few who were excited by his signing, I am never excited by anyone until I hear other people's opinions as I know **** all about any player outside SAFC and the obvious players.

Don't even know owt about the keeper from Chelsea, that is how much premier league and European football I watch!

I think Mayenda is going to absolutely explode this season in the PL. I can see Mundle doing the same if he gets over his injury issues

wilson for me has massive potential in the prem aswell, he's unreal infront of goal when he doesn't have time to think about it, and that's exactly the type of chances he'll get , plus still young aswell and approaching the age where his body will naturally bulk out aswell

Before he joined us, looked such an exciting prospect then had a shocking injury and never recovered

Won't be surprised if we release him this summer or sell for nothing

yes I’m very excited about our two strikers. Really don’t think we should focus too much budget in that space. I’d be prioritising the wings.

I’ll point it out for you again next time. I find it very frustrating when you lump everyone together and completely fabricate what’s being said

As you have pointed out how I frustrate you with my posting and how I fabricate things I have thought about it and decided I will go back to just reading the football threads.

However if it's OK with you can I still post on next biscuit, drink, sandwich thread?
