How Do You About One, Just One, Lawrie Mac 'Sexy' Style Signing

[TijuanaTim]

To integrate into our young, stable, focused and admirable ball-playing strategy. You know what I mean...a Ball, Keegan, Shilton, Armstrong even Osgood or Jimmy Case? Except, of course, circa 2013-14. Someone like Robbie Keane, Charlie Adam, Berbatov or another quality and flair character?

 

Not saying good or bad....or even going as far as Joey Barton (ala Mark Psycho Dennis), just interested in peoples thouths.

Is that English? I recognise all the the words, but I can't make sense of it.

I wouldn't put Robbie Keane in that bracket.

 

Really, considering our stature, Gaston Ramirez fulfilled that aim last summer. The pressing type of tactic we play doesn't really leave much room for a 'sexy' or potentially luxury signing. We need raw ability coupled with fitness and graft to progress.

Xavi.

 

Come on Poch, give him a call, you have to contact him about buying a table lamp from that shop in Barcelona your wife has been on about and bringing it over in person for you!

 

The Potters Heron awaits.

Sorry, we'll use smaller words for you more simple types in future.

[BlakeySFC]

Oh dear God, TijuanaTim's back.

 

[Strangely Brown]

"How do you about one "......WTF!

[benjii]

We're being linked with Damiao, Banega, Osvaldo etc and you propose Keane or Adam as a "sexy" signing?

[Matthew Le God]

Sorry, we'll use smaller words for you more simple types in future.

 

Read the thread title and opening post to yourself word for word, it makes no sense.

 

"How do you about one "......WTF!

 

Exactly!

[BlakeySFC]

The man's an utter cretin.

 

He used to ring up 'The Saint' radio station after every home game and start with the sentence 'Now I'm only a Junior soccer coach here in LA...but I'd do this, this and this with the team and leave this guy, that guy and this other guy on the bench and start x, y or z in his place'

LOL, lying and name calling are such unfortunate traits. You are saying more about yourself than others. Take a long, hard look at yourself or alternatively, just keep opening this ironically, hilarious mirror to yourself, Very entertaining, very sad, however somehow entertaining. No offense sir, peace out.

[Trumush]

And how many times have you flown back from L A to support the Saints ????

The thread title is almost as good as the England I did spoke when I was a children;)

[BlakeySFC]

Once.

[manji]

Oh dear God, TijuanaTim's back.

 

Did you know he lives in the USA ?

[Saint Billy]

Nope, tried but I still don't understand this thread.

[stu0x]

I would be gutted if we signed any of the three players you named, and can only assume you haven't watched any of them play recently.

 

If the point you are making is that you'd like to see a 'marquee' signing, the players we are apparently legitimately interested in are arguably far more noteworthy than the likes of Charlie 'The Human Ballsack' Adam.

[kpturner]

Well, I for one, could not make any sense of the OP title or the contents of the post. It must be kicking out time in LA.

[sotonist]

I just don't know.

[Saint Charlie]

Speachless.

[trousers]

[Strangely Brown]

Perhaps there is a hidden meaning we are all missing?

[Trader]

Charlie Adam??

 

Charlie f * c k i n Adam??

 

Really??

[dinger]

I'm afraid my thouths are too unplaceable, too mercurial. SWF is too rigid a forum for them.

[BlakeySFC]

Did you know he lives in the USA ?

 

[latter day saint]

is LSD still easily available in the USA ?

[sandwichsaint]

Luca Modric CDAJFU, is this the sort of thing?

[Barry the Badger]

If we could only make one sexy signing I'd go for Charlie Adam

[niceandfriendly]

Thread of the year so far.

 

Or perhaps I should say 'how do you about one of thread the year far so'.

[sotonist]

Perhaps we could about Carlos Ruiz?

[sammysaint]

My favouite Phillies player, i know hes good at catching but so is Boruc

Jive talkin' Mother f*****

[Saint Billy]

I notice that the camels have turned white early this summer.

[Wes Tender]

I 'd hazard a guess that there was a word missing from the title. I'm pretty sure that he meant to ask "How do you feel about one, just one Lawrie Mac "sexy" style signing?

 

Although with a bit of research the players we are currently rumoured to be looking at seem to be very good, if we're honest most on here haven't previously heard of the majority of them. None of them are remotely in the category of Keegan when Lawrie signed him. So there is some validity in the question once the meaning of it is clear.

[Chewy]

I 'd hazard a guess that there was a word missing from the title. I'm pretty sure that he meant to ask "How do you feel about one, just one Lawrie Mac "sexy"

 

But then it should be how would you feel. And he still lists charlie Adam and Robbie Keane as a sexy signing. The guys a mentalist.

I hadn't thouth of that.

[Red Alert]

I go to bed at night wishing we would just hurry up and sign a Stoke midfielder, Delap would do fine but if we got Charlie Adam....

Google Translate is rubbish - it doesn't recognise this language

[SaintBobby]

Read every comment on this thread and I'm still non the wiser.

 

Given it seems impossible to discern what the OP was asking or what he thinks, I guess the signs were never auspicious.

I think it means we're unveiling Wayne Rooney at the Potters Heron next week ........

[TijuanaTim]

Yeah sorry, poorly written and I deserve the flack. I did leave 'feel' out of the title. Not pro or anti signing a character/flair player I just wanted to know the board's feelings. We used to integrate a Frank Worthington style 'sexy' singing into our young (Agboola, Wright, Dennis, Williams, Moran, Wallace) type teams and it had some interesting results.

 

I specifically mentioned the three payers because we all know them from the Prem and understand their track records and what they bring (not suggesting signing them specifically), whereas if I had used someone like Juan Roman Riquelme or Roberto Saldado we could only guess. Ball had a massive impact, Keegan was a sensation and probably (quietly) our best big name signing was Shilton. I do not know whether it would work in the current climate, so I was respectfully asking your thoughts.

 

Again apologise for the poorly written post.

Double post Tim? It's been a bad weekend

[Red Alert]

Tim, i think this is something the club is trying to do anyway. Even being suggested we could sign Damio, even if we have bid shows a real sign of intent. I would never have thought we would sign Gaston when we did. We will get someone in this year that will be a 'wow' type signing. That being said i don't think we will be signing a Ballon d'or player any time soon.

Like your point however think poor examples.

 

Imho Charlie Adam wouldn't get in first 11 and I would be less excited to hear those two forwards were starting than I would be hearing Ramirez was.

 

Prices for British players are so inflated and players so over rated I struggle to think of an exciting British player (or established in prem) we could be after.

[Lord Duckhunter]

Why give the guy a load of abuse, if you don't like his thread don't comment on it.

 

Much as I loved lawrie, those type of signings belong in a bygone era. The only ones worth signing are a giggs , scholes, or carragher and they can choose their moment to leave the game safe in the knowledge they don't need one more pay day. The managers who have tried it lately are redknapp and pulis, but people like Owen & Ryan nelson are just a waste of money. Look at fat frank or John terry , 30 years ago Chelsea would have binned them, now they can manage them through squad rotation and when the time comes to go , they'll go to the middle east, USA or retire. I would love a jimmy case, kk or a Peter Osgood, but the games changed .

They do hate bad spelling and poor grammar on here, don't they? And they do seem a bit eager to go all guided missile on our chosen country of residence.

 

But you did just compare Alan Ball and Kevin Keegan to Robbie Keane and Charlie Adam, so you're on your own mate...

[Guided Missile]

I think my favourite Tijuana Tim post was this classic:

 

"What do I do?" As little as possible mate...live by the ocean, drive a big, new fu¢k of Merc and have a hot young b!tch (as numerous posters can confirm). Raise Guide Dogs for The Blind and coach 'soccer'...

You just have to love him...a credit to ex-pats everywhere...

[Cascadia Saint]

Speak of the devil....

He has a young overheated female guide dog? And posters can confirm this?

[once_bitterne]

I really do hope that the Charlie Adam Tiggy Tit was referring to is some unknown to us Yank Soccaballer and not the player who wasn't even good enough for Stoke last season.

 

That would be about as 'sexy' as Dot Cotton.
