Same here - had £3.50 left in my account but 25/1 is not to be sniffed at

Good man - really annoyed with myself at not doing more but why would I have when we weren't even linked at the time!

Well was mostly thinking of Cabeye (and I'm a big fan) who I'd say is nearer then end of his career than the start.

What will the biscuits be at the press conference?

I think they should be Jaffa cakes as they have orange in the middle which will make Frank feel at home.

Not that pedantry is allowed on this forum, but Jaffa Cakes aren't biscuits.

That would be peachy :-)

 


Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune)

A few interesting points:
Parish consulted Allardyce on the new manager
De Boer is primarily interested in being a solid side and avoiding a relegation fight
Says he might want one or two new players

He did and:-
SP has had time to evaluate Managers.
Frank likes to bring through young talent.
Obviously needs to win matches.
Great opportunity for Frank (has signed for 3 years).
If still here then he will be doing well.
Manager decides on signings other than (Zaha).
Training re-starts Friday and Mandanda is due to turn up.

Do they have a good logo? One that's smaller than a tablemat unlike Mansion?

I really want mandanda to work. From what I saw at the start of the season, his management of his area and distribution was very good. If theres questions about his commitment and attitude I expect FdB to make the right call.

I do still think a lot of his non-selection under allardyce is down to him coming back to fitness when Hennessey was doing okay and we were winning games

Oh god, the ManBetX logo actually does look like it could be a freeview gay p*rn channel.

Yala has tuned into the press conference and thinks FDB is a great signing for us
