Chris,I'm only quoting this from memory but when he first joined Southampton they said he was over-weight and unfit and put him on a strict training regime,it must have been all those pies he was famous for......
Andy Cole sold £1.75m in 1993.... Adi Akinbiyi sold £3.5m in 99/2000... David Cotterell sold for £2m plus in 2006... Marlon Jackson current youngster... Ricky Lambert,aged 24 bought for £200k, sold £1m in 2009... Nicky Maynard,aged 21 bought for £2.25m,current player... Think it's time you lot stopped clinging on to claims about Lambert,he has done much better since Southampton got hold of him.. 2006–2009 Bristol Rovers 128 (51) 2009– Southampton 101 (60)
Wize same will be said for Nicky Maynard when he leaves for free at the end of the year. He will do much better at a proper Championship club
[ Fair play to Lambert,he adapted to a better team and systems and improved to be the player he is,he got better and went up,your lot sunk.....[/QUOTE] Wiz you may need to be reminded of this when Nicky goes to a successful club with no finance to City and the sanmarinos sink into ...........
and by the way , didnt Cole cost big time and your lot cocked up the sell on payments? and received pretty much muck all
OK point taken Wiz, but I do feel that as footballers playing days are relatively short we should all be a bit sympathetic to those who are given an opportunity to play at a higher level.
We are heading up young sapphire, you however are heading nowhere. We can all tell when things are beginning to go well for us because you lot become palpably even more jealous and its so very visibly obvious.
Any striker or indeed manager that accepts Pantsdown shilling seem to sink without a trace, just like 82
Well,you're lot ought to know,you've had 5 managers in a year,sacked 15 loyal players and employed 18 that have raised you to the dizzy heights of 15th in the 4th tier.... We won't talk about when you were almost,(I do define almost) busted and had to leave Eastville and become transients.....
