I've been on this forum (and's it's predecessor) for what seems like a very long time and have been thoroughly entertained over the years, even in some dark moments (thank you all) but never really got involved. Today though, well, who couldn't get involved today! Over the last few weeks me and...

We had one last Sunday... oh, that wasn't so friendly.

Hasn't Hammond been transfer listed? That makes four, one of whom is s bit of an unknown. doesn't sound to bad to me, as long as they strengthen other areas.

Or part of his investment pays it off, meaning no interest, but it adds to the value of the club when he comes to sell it and in the mean-time the club hasn't had to pay any interest on it so that cash goes into developing the club instead... maybe?

Only if you could sell the residue, otherwise you've stripped an asset you still own and can't offload because it's carrying so much debt. you'd be right up the creek!

and at the moment those sareholders are responsible (though probably not personaly) for a £15million debt that they have to keep servicing. That seriously dtrtacts from the value of the club. The ahareholders are kidding themselves if they think the club is worth serious cash. And who is...

and then you'd errrr... have to pay Teachers £15million.... doesn't quite work does it.

Oh dear.... Simon Jordan; when he interviewed John Gregory and Souness we should have known how low he'd go.

I agree. Also he might have left us in the relegation zone but he left us with a squad that was capable of winning the next three games on the trot and responding so well for Kelly. Whatever we think of De Vries and Elvis, he did make huge steps forward. I'm sure I'll get completely flamed...

He oversaw the club through administration, did all he could to keep some stability when everyone was losing their jobs or jumping ship, got us promoted to the Premiership on a shoestring.... OK, so his shoestring squad had some duffs and he started to lose it a bit at then end, no surprise...

The fact that a team that finished fifth in the Premiership can walk away with the top prize in European Football has got to be good for English Football. Nice one Liverpool.

Hypocrites? Why? He's being judged on his performance, not what sort of bloke he is. Last year it was way below what he should have been capable of, this year he's improved dramatically and people appreciate it. Why does that make us hypocrites?

Merry christmas! Very amusing singing advent calendar and you can win Beer for a year... www.carlinglive.com/xmas

Blimey you had my heart racing!

I've always supported Adams (from a far) and despite serious disapointment at some of the results this season, still wanted to give him a chance. But this is forcing me to worry. Two senior professionals, Dublin and Keown, both who know a thing or two about football and whose opinions I...

I tend to stay out of this but nice post Homer. I agree entirely. That may change if we have another six games like the last six, but right now your answers are spot on. I was deligted when we got Williams and Connolly and gytted we lost Thatcher and Dickov, but you can see what he's trying...

You don't necessarily have a right to see the CCTV footage. The Data Protection Act and Human Rights Act requirements mean that the tapes remain strictly confidential unless required as evidence either by the prosecution or defence or by the order of a court. In that case copies of the...

All over the London evening standard but no real details?!?

I thought he looked pretty good on Sunday. Made one blinding sliding tackle and generally looked more competent than I'd thought.

I notice young Marcus has gone a bit quiet on us. Maybe the abuse was getting too much!

whatever way you look at it, that's a squad that fills me with confidence. I can't bloody wait to see this lot start to gel. They have so much potential!

The squad looks great, and we've still got one more mystery signing to come. It certainly looks stronger all round than a couple of seasons ago. Micky is finally in a position to bring in the players he really wants and can build his own team... and mighty fine it's looking too! It also...

this is absolutely hilarious... so it was work experience followed by a summer on minimum wage and you spent half an hour not five minutes with Micky adams. bullseye... Bloody hell, i couldn't have got much closer to the truth if I knew you!

Blimey Marcus is a tw*t. My guess, he's certainly no older than 18, probably 16, just finished his GCSEs at some Leicestershire public shcool. His dads pulled a few strings to get him some summer work experience at the Telegraph which he rather mistakenly (being a small town boy at heart...

How do they work that out. Dad goes in, buys two tickets, one for the kid, one for himself, which did he buy first? I bet they genuinely thought it was better PR to have the kid win it, unfortunately it just makes them look like money grabbing fools. Such bad, bad PR...

If you hadn't i would've. Funniest thing i've read since Marcus started spouting about his dad yesterday.

while you and your dad are a laugh a minute..

Me da (my dad) has told me that he is about to sign as the new manager in time for the highly prestigious, and no doubt sell out, Pepsi Max Crapionship. All because Micky Adams has been lured to East Bengal where he will take Dion Dublin and Martin Keown. But it's ok, my dad's done a deal to...

I heard through my dad's brother's mate's dog's ex wife who shops in the same Tescos as Micky adam's son's cats' cousin's mate's mate that we won't be signing Thierry Henry this week. Surprise huh!

you want to know where the Turnstile is because the baby Squad drink there?!?!? Far, far too intereted for my liking.

Yeah. Marcus is one of a group who actually provide some pretty good info. I don't contribute much to the board, but read it daily and he's one of the reasons. One joke on a few people who give him a hard time doesn't seem to warrant the abuse he keeps getting!?!? anyway, PM me too if you...

Well you can start with the winner of the 4.30 at Newmarket!

Superb. To all the doubters... this thread says it all!!!!

Yup! just appeared on official site. Bloody good signing IMO. right side of 30, only a nightmare at West Ham because of the whole stuck on the bench thing with Mellor. And scores goals for a laugh!!!! Lets just hope their are no last minute hitches. With DD and him up front.....

Lets hope we get him. A complete to**er but a gret first division goal scorer. Things might just be looking up, I'm starting to quite like the mix of player Adams is bringing in!

such a huge day... wilcox... :( Really thought we might bring in just one or two interesting young players. Feeling deflated, think I might have to leave it another six months before I post again

She just got relegated :-(

I haven't felt moved to actually write on the forum for quite a while but Oadby fox... what a complete toss*r!!! If you don't like the people and threads on this forum then bugger off! Why choose to unleash your abuse on people you only know from a few postings? You sad, pathetic old man.

Yeah, I was watching Football Years. Amazed we didn't figure given the coverage Middlesborough got and the mentions of losing out on two cups. Still, the whole Ravanelli thing made me lauch. All that money spent at the start of the season and still in the sh*t... And I thoroughly enjoyed...
