We used to have Waggy's mum posting on here. Now we have Bradley's mum. I would rate both as "can do a job" in Div One and should do well in Div Two. Two honest and enthusiastic pros.
One of the beauties of being part of FC Network is that you no longer have any stress as a fan during the transfer window. Unless we are flogging off another Academy asset of course. Instead we can all sit back stress free and marvel at the seemingly effortless incoming avalanche of top quality European talent. We might not strike it as lucky this time as we did in January. I am reliably informed that all the top clubs in Europe had their beady eyes on Loic Nego and Anil Koc. Real Madrid were looking at Lily "Pitter Patter" Thuram as the long term replacement for Iker Casillas. Athletico saw Reza as the perfect strike partner for David Villa. And Barca stepped in at the last min, and offered us Neymar plus cash (lots of it) for Polish Pete. Brendan Rodgers at Liverpool is also looking for a long term replacement for Stevie G. A real box to box player, who will run through a brick wall for the team and can shrug off broken limbs for the cause. He is currently speaking to Astrid's agent I understand. Astrid himself has gone for a long lay down.
Cheers, Dickp! That's reassured me no end. Now I am comforted by the knowledge that RD will relent and decide to take JR on as manager after all. Poyet will then sign a 3-year contract, as will Gomez, not to mention Morrison. Astrid will spend the summer with the sports scientist, and will return like a whirling dervish. Top European clubs will "snap up" Nego, Reza and Pete, freeing up cash to buy top quality replacements. It will all fall into place pretty soon!
What my illness taught me was to relax more and take the attitude of whatever will be will be. Two new signings are close, I have no idea who they are. But I would hazard a guess that they are from SL.
Glad to hear about your recovery, Dickp, even better that it has taught you to cope with being a Charlton fan.
I am a lot more relaxed now. But I won't be if we don't recruit decent class Championship players and quite a few of them. We don't want the same crock of **** as we had in January.
