Hold on that means you aren't who you said you were you devious old git - and talking of old gits I saw your old and new hoppo at uni today!!!!

Oh no he's not but he is raising a toast to this thread

Lee still is waiting for international clearance and according to NA's interview on the BBC he therefore might not play on Saturday. A shame because it would be the ideal game to blood him.

To me anyone who opens a bank account in Monaco is surely doing it for underhand reasons. I don't have a bank account in another country and I doubt many on here don't either, so why would a bloke who can hardly write and needs an accountant to pay his gas bill want to open up an account in another country thousands of miles from where he lives. Just this fact alone shrieks "guilty". Maybe his accountant should be charged too? I used to have a soft spot for Harry as on a personal level he was very approachable and once did me a favour (no not involving a brown envelope) but I am starting to think a 12 month custodial sentence might actually teach him that even rich people have to follow the law and pay their taxes. Pompey and him were a dream pairing. Corrupt club=bent geezer! Throw in Mandaric and you have a witch's cauldron.

Rosie?

Exactly - and the fact NA has allegedly targeted Hooper, he knows we need a person who can step into the forward line and score goals.

Thanks that explains it I guess - got to be a bargain i guess.

Wonder how we managed to get him on a free?

Everyone makes mistakes but this is good news for all concerned. Having him skulking around with the youth team while his value depreciates was a no brainer. He will give us another option and after the performance of the other night quality options are what we need. Still like to see an out and forward piped aboard the boat though.

A fair analysis

This

Was on the bench for the game v Huddersfield so not that indespensable

You have a valid opinion but my guess is not many on here will agree. Adkins has so far done well this season but I sense the wheels on the bus are wobbling and whether he and Cortese can steady things will now be crucial. I have faith because both are capable but this is now a make or break week in respect of investment.

Ron thanks for the update. It is a shame though we have to get it from you and not the club

The voice of reason - at the end of the day we all lose out.

Have you ever read 1984?

This post deserves to be aired again - nice one Faz

I think your last sentence sort of sums up this whole thread in a nutshell

Good work and I think it proves this. Celtic are a much bigger team than Saints due to their support and their tradition, but nowadays play in an inferior league and, while they continue to do so, they will slowly and inexorably decline.

Doble's loan record is nothing like as impressive as Trotta's. Makes sense this - good back up for Rickie Lambert

Niaive?

OS article is confusing as it says he is still on the books of Juventus and then that Spurs have signed him permantly. Happy to have him on the bus - even temporarily - but sincerely believe the squad needs a boost by a marquee "better than what we already have" signing and not sure either Lee or Falque meet that criteria. Hopefully that big signing will happen but not sure it will.

Sorry don't agree with your last sentence. Barnard we can forget this season what with one thing and another, Connolly is good but brittle, Doble simply not good enough and Do Prado blows hot and cold. Look how we all panicked when Rickie picked up a 3 match ban - too much rests on his availability for us to expect/hope for automatic promotion.

As for turning the lights on at the start of the day and off at the end has no one told him all the light bulbs down at Fartton have been set to automatic dim for a few months now. Steve - seriously have you thought about making this thread into a book - all the profits could be used to buy them and finally put them out of their misery.
