Basically, the journo's down south pass these awards round amongst themselves every year with the 'winner' having done nothing necessarily to deserve it. They have a piss up and at the end of the night it is decided 'who shall get it this year?'. There's no great decision making into it at all. it's a sympathy vote for samuel. they're trying to keep him onside so he doesn't eat all of the buffet again at next year's do

bollocks man. he'd take milner's place in a flash and would probably provide over half of our assists if he did sign. we don't have anyone in the same league when it comes to delivery from wide areas and set pieces.

Strikes me as a bit of a douchebag though. I think the use of the word "douchebag" is worthy of a ban from the board it's a great insult. up there with mongoloid

i had a feeling this rumour might be in the offing. it'd be a shrewd move

he ate all the competition

If only. We'd have won that every season under Kev. 70's-tastic.

never heard of him. don't follow the micky mouse football north of the border - would sooner watch the championship. plus he wouldn't seem to fulfill keegan's criteria of signing players ready made for the permiership. £8m would be a gamble of barry ferguson-esque proportions

martin samuel? ugly, fat, silly beard? yes

sounds like keegan fancies building an entirely new back 4. richards would be class but if city do sell, i can see chelsea or man u gazumping us a'la the rooney farce a couple of years back. van buyten, chimbonda and campbell seem much more realistic alternatives.

Aye, having a harmless joke - bang out of order. if it had been in the slightest bit funny you might have had a point

no chance of berbatov and carrick surely.

Iirc we were 4th or 5th when KK left. 4th

i can't understand how he even manages to get a seat on the sky pundit panel

i predict a riot. i predict a riot.

found his level tbh

top six? :D

me too. can't see us getting half of them like, especially berbatov and carrick.

i can't see fergie selling or carrick wanting to leave the best club in the land for us

well done

there's nowt on skysports website like. I doubt there will be. so why post complete crap?

i wonder then whether keegans ees a place in the side for martins. he's already talked highly of viduka and made owen his captain. owen will start every game if he's captain; no mention of oba as of yet plus he's hardly the best partner for owen

nice way of burying the hatchet. owen needs to start performing mind, as do one or two others

there's nowt on skysports website like.

I was getting my hopes up there! where can I register my vote to ban Tribal again?

top half of the table would be a bonus at this stage.
