Saw this elsewhere and shamelessly pinched it. List of free agents:

Gk – Ross Turnbull, Chris Kettings, Hugo Ventura, Matt Jones, Thomas Vincensini, Mika, Piet Velthuizen, Ivan Lucic, Diego Cavalieri

Def – Seb Bassong, Benoit Tremoulinas, Kelvin Wilson, Sam Westley, Stephen Kelly, Reece Wabara, Lewis Buxton, Bob Harris, Florian Marange, Essaid Belkalem, Ryan McGivern, Joleon Lescott, Addison Garnett, Jack Bainbridge, Anthony Brydges, Tom Plezier, Philipp Wolfscheid, Remie Streete, George Brady, Matthew Spiranovic

Mid – Kieran Richardson, Dale Jennings, Kris Commons, Carlos De Pena, Aidy White, Aaron Kuhl, Lee Williamson, Chris Dawson, Modou Sougou, Mark Davies, Jerome Thomas, Nigel Reo-Coker, Kagisho Dikgacoi, Diego Capel, Lewis McGugan, Carl Baker, Yohan Mollo, Axel Prohouly, Josue Pesquiera, Denilson, Jeremy Toulalan, Anderson, Jamel Saihi

For – Dexter Blackstock, Ishmael Miller, Rai Simons, Ruud Boymans, Carlton Cole, Mirko Vucinic, Danny Rowe, Milan Lalkovic, Bobby Duncan, Diego de Girolamo, Marouane Chamakh, Victor Anichebe, Nile Ranger, Deon Moore, Danijel Subotic

 

Few familiar names on that list. Bassong seemingly all but finished at 31. Looked so promising when he first signed for us

Lucky for Remi Streete that he's making such a good living as Lee Ryder's narc.

 

If that's Anderson who used to play for Man Utd, he can't be that old, surely? What happened there? Denilson as well.

 

I wonder how many of those Sunderland approached in January. Got to think that Kris Commons, Carlton Cole and Reo-Coker were considered. As well as a dramatic return for Richardson.

 

EDIT: Didn't Tony Adams take Reo-Coker and Richardson on trial at Granada? :lol:

Bassong would've done well to remember the words of Public Enemy, don't believe the hype. Especially when the hype is about yourself.

Fair play to that goalie, he's done ok in his other career

BFG retiring, really good interview with him here. Very poignant about the relentless pressure of top level football, didn't know he'd come through at Hanover 96 with Robert Encke..

The player I bought immediately after purchasing my first FIFA game back in the day. Brilliant interview but the photo gave me the vibes from Don Jr.'s forest photo shoot.

Looks like Derby have done what Boro did to us a few years ago and arranged for their game to be called off as they're short of players. 

 

I can't stand Warnock but he's spot on here.

Often wondered where he'd disappeared too...

 

 

:lol:

 

Totally forgotten about this cockney wanker. He was Pardew before Pardew. Obviously the king out Pardewed him when he came on the scene but Gregory was the prototype.
