    So he couldn't get into a PREMIERSHIP team and had to settle for a struggling Crystal Palace side in the Championship! Wow most premier league defences will be Sh**ting themselves! <laugh>

    he didn't play for everton last year to regain fitness though warky. you can try and slant it any way you want but he is a good player. everton fans were disappointed he left - they wanted him to play. its a good move for him - he went last year without injury so thats good news. if we can keep him fit, he will be a great signing. its a bit of a gamble i suppose, but he was widely regarded as a future england striker just three years ago. he still has the potential, just needs to play games now. i've got a feeling he is marginally better than nathan ellington...

    Supers I am merely debunking a post you wrote yesterday basically saying that you have only bought the best players from other clubs. The list you have given maybe true in some cases but the fact still remains that none of them have played in the premiership! The 2 players on the list that come from premier league clubs were loaned out last season.

    Ambrose - palace's best player
    Murray - brighton's best player
    Rhodes - huddersfiled's best player
    Herridason - one of pompey's best players
    Trotter - millwall's best player
    Wellens - leicester's best player
    Gradel - leeds, err, not sure - opinion was split!

    Your opinions, despite being dogshit, are as valid as anyones until you start trying to justify your own pointless cause.

    As Premiership signings, they are laughable.

    You trill pecking morons are doomed....

    hi gus,

    they all have different strengths. morison is not blessed with skill but he is very committed and strong, good in the air and an excellent finisher. people assume he is a big bruiser - he can play that way but check out some of the goals he has scored - he can score from anywhere... bennett and pilkington are both flair players as warky points out they have never even been close to playing in the top flight, but what they possess is flair, skill, pace and power - all attributes that are required to make the grade. pilks is coming back from injury so might not hit the ground running but bennett is so classy to watch - he'll light up match of the day. naughton is another with great technique whilst de laet has great pace and is good on the ball. we all know vaughan has huge potential. the only player we have signed who has raised an eyebrow is johnson from leeds. he played well against us and is combative and has good energy and a decent shot. not too sure he will cut it myself.

    warky, you can't debunk something i didn't say. i was referring solely to players we bought this summer. why would i be talking about the players we bought a year ago?

    plums, nathan ellington is one of the worst strikers in the championship. he has had two good seasons EVER. this was his blip, not the past 6 years where he's done **** all...

    monkey boy, you are talking nonsense! ambrose barely played last season. murray was excellent but bennett won league one player of the year. rhodes couldn't get in the huddersfield team. hreidarsson, i assume you are joking!? trotter, again, did well but morison player of the year, wellens is rubbish - leicester had a £5m bid turned down last week for naughton - their fans love him, and gradel... yeah, him or snodgrass in my opinion were better than johnson.

    what about Andy King from leicester? what about snodgrass from leeds?

    I take it if you bought Accrington Stanleys best player then he would be premiership class aswell! Superman i like your opitmism, but frankly you are talking a complete load of bollocks.

    One last thing, how great is Not606, if this was the old BBC site this would have been closed by now, but here we can say anything. I can even say 'I ****ing hate those grunt hog loving morons and can't wait to hear them whine when he doesn't get a decision for falling over his own ****ing laces the cheating ****' if i wanted to of course!

    soup,
    i was referring to the medical term of Skill, which is rare african bum disease. if you feel some of them may have it i would steer clear of sparrow road for a while. sorry for the confusion.

    you don't want a little wager then that city will stay up?

    warky, yes - they wanted £8m for him. i think that basically means they don't want to sell him! having said that, i heard wigan are replacing n'zogbia with him...

    Superman you big crazy. I just injected some ex Town players to highlight your shortcomings.

    Murray was top scorer for Bwighton
    Rhodes was top scorer for Huddesfield
    Wellens was player of the year for Fester
    Etc Etc

    You can't even justify your already incoherent babble.

    Gus, comment of pre-season for me <laugh>

    how exactly did i not justify it? its irrelevant that you threw a couple of ex-binners in - all the players i mentioned we had signed this summer, with the exception of johnson, were their clubs best player last season, by winning their player of the year awards...
