  1. We wanted to sign Ginola and Weah. Ginola deal initially fell through, which is when we looked at Salako but the deal was rekindled. As an aside, Keegan tried to sign Maldini at the same time as we bought Shearer.
  2. Think the story was that KK was meant to have been promised Schweinsteiger when Milner left. The problem was it was bollocks as Munich and the player hadn't even been approached and, unsurprisingly he didn't want to leave.
  3. He's the sort of lad who'll be skint in a couple of years.
  4. Looks like it. I just checked the readings:
  5. Alex

    New Phone

    Only when the Learjet's getting serviced
  6. He was on £130k a week at Chelsea according to wiki. Never agreed a severance package so he was paid it for the full 2 years of his contract. So getting on for £7m
  7. The logical argument would be a soft Brexit because they closeness of the vote should mean compromise. However, all May's bothered about is winning the next election. If hard Brexit means that then that's probably the shit sandwich we'll all have to chew on.
  8. Seriously though. I fully appreciate that sort of thing isn't easy however.
  9. If only we had a relatively large manufacturing sector.
  10. And when we did sign a forward from Holland in the 80s it was Rob McDonald
  11. I would've thought so, otherwise they wouldn't be doing any more
  12. You want to knock that on the head sooner rather than later
  13. Van Basten and Gullit were both recommended (by Chris Guthrie I think) in the early 80s. Although J69 will be pleased we never signed the former
  14. Pretty sure that's Bobby McFerrin
  15. And talks about himself in the third person
  16. Baresi looks canny old from the same era (Espana '82). Mind, he doesn't look as old as Bergomi despite being 4 years older.
  17. Quick quiz question, which some of you will no doubt know but (no googling): How old do you reckon Bergomi is in this pic?
  18. Can't remember where I read it but someone he used to work with at Bolton was on about him often signing stuff 'Big Sam'.
  19. If ever proof were needed that one thing you cannot buy is good taste
