I'm wondering if we are dilly-dallying on an announcement due to TV money? If we get it, then McAllister or Sanchez gets the job, if not, then we go the Nijholt route?

This year's team photie will be mingin' with that goalie kit

Thank god.

I Disney watch ESPN much but free gemmes would be magic!

Fuck me gently, that is ugly. Buzz has a lot to answer for!

He's back on this planet?

That was God punishing you

Far too busy right now.

true dat!

Rob Newman did okay for us, to be honest.

I think Eddie May will be a decent manager. What McLeish did with him at Motherwell was hardly his fault.

I feel sick.

square...but cool.

Exactly; we got mugged right there. What we need to bear in mind is that we are not just selling what the player has done in the past but also his potential which, surely, is more valuable?

That was the chap, Yir, cheers!

I thought he Beevers fella had signed for someone else anyway? And hasn't Boyle done this sort of thing before? Some guy called Frodo (!?!?) Hansen from the Faroes or something? We ended up finding his contract in a drawer or something and ripped it up and then we got sued? All very strange these goings on.

OK, so the manager speak is going round in circles and the rest of the pre-season is boring thus far so to keep you all away from the riveting Mowbray talk in the papers I thought I'd throw you this wee diversion - it's the start of the 2009/10 season and YOU are the manager. You can pick either Ross McCormack (aye, I know he's at Cardiff) or Davie Clarkson as a striker. Which one do you play? Feel free to throw in a reason too if you like.

Who was the English plonker who went to Holland to coach and suddenly developed a Ducth accent for interviews in English? McLaren? That was hilarity of the highest order right there.

He'll terminate us if we don't. For what it's worth, I wasn't in the Luc camp at all at the start of this. I'm not even being swayed by the fact he is a former player - though, obviously it means he isn't entirely an unknown quantity for us.

For some teams success is winning a championship, for others it is league survival and staying afloat. Bringing on young players and selling them on for enough dosh to keep us afloat has to be considered success for us by any definition, OED be damned.

Who did they get in Europe again?

Experience counts for nothing if they were shite at their job though.

Club size shouldn't dictate the value of a player though. Clarky for a wee club like us is a bigger loss than Ronaldo is to Man U so I say we hold out for more than 80 mill.

With some of the prices being bandied about on the world market right now why should we settle for any less.... :thumbup:

That Boyle fella has been talked about on thes eboards in the past I am sure.
