Golac's Cunning Stunts

Pat Nevin on Five Live just said how sad he was to hear Billy going out on loan and not getting his chance in the prem

Makes me laugh. They are now a top 8 team. Nowhere near top 4. And they will struggle even more if they don't buy a striker in the next 2 hours.

I'm going to WOOT for Essien. That would cap an awesome day

If he is off as seems likely, there's no point arguing the toss, but I don't really agree with this. IMO Billy is an out and out goal poacher/scorer. Certainly not the same type of player as Lee or Mayuka. Let's see what happens in December when Jayrod is injured and Rickie is knackered!

Sad about this. I really liked him as a bloke and as a player. He never really got a chance to show what he can do. He's a goalscorer - younger and better than Holt for example. No reason he couldn't have stayed and made a name for himself. I

Same here. Forest fans ****ing themselves off about it on their forum

Absolutely class player in his day. Not sure about him injury wise these days, but I would still say yes please :-)

We are fast becoming their feeder club.

I hope Billy stays and tries to prove himself. If nothing else, he is good cover for SRL and great to have on the bench to unleash against tiring defences

I can think of lots worse than that.

Just behind Derby for ugliness of inhabitants and just ahead of Nottingham

This forum is bad but Twitter is ****ter

Looks like Spuds are signing Hugo Lloris. Excellent keeper and only 25. We could have done with someone like that.

Know for sure or are you f'n Guessin

Have seen all the young players make their debut from about 1976 onwards. Brain would say Mr Shearer made the most impressive debut and also went on to achieve the most in International honours. Heart says Stevie Williams - what a lovely lovely player (meant in a totally non gay way :-)). I would trade all of our current midfield for him in his prime. Wasn't young enough to see Mickey's debut but if I had seen it, I have no doubt I would be picking him. One of the few men who can be called a Saints legend.

I see... delaying the inevitable. Thanks a lot!

I've looked for the answer but the thread is so ginormous, can anybody help? Why does the BBC not show Pimpley's 10 point deduction in their league table? Have I missed something... haven't been keeping up with it all of late...

Honestly. Why exactly is he a "two face f*cker? He obviously made the correct decision as far as his career goes. Would welcome Dawson with open arms. He would be an improvement to the squad.

Yes you are missing something: a brain Probably a penis too

That's probably over 4 hours of his life he'll never get back if you assume a minute a post. There again, how much of your life did you waste researching that fact and how much of mine have I wasted writing this?

I would stay and debate this but I have to go and watch some paint dry.

Do you think that if you could actually convince MLG he was wrong about something, he would self destruct as his internal logic circuits would not be able to cope?

Once a year me and my 4 brothers in law go on a weekend jolly. Last year we went to the Derby v Saints game. None of them knew anything about Saints but by the end of the game they were all asking about Guly. They thought he was the best player on the pitch. I think he at least deserves a crack at the PL. Who knows, it may suit him better than the lower leagues.

Really? All 3 would easily command a fee, particularly Barnard who excelled in L1. We paid £1m for SRL and he had only played L1 at the highest at the time.
