Never heard of this guy but is says he's their captain so maybe the leader we need.
exactly what we need. Never heard of him so got no idea if he is any good or not !!
So they take no nonsense do they!
ha ha mate. i only took interest because a Leicester fan was talking about it last night and said he was coming to us. he also said they were about to sign izale mcleod.
Ben Thatcher is a no nonsense defender with leadership skills.........(!)
"Became a favourite with the Leicester fans with his no-nonsense style of play"??????????
What 3 red cards a season?????
Umpteen yellows????????
Fouling in very dangerous areas costing us at least 15 points a season???????
Caught out of postion all game leading to desperate lunging fouls???????
Nudges and pushes in the back you can spot from Freemans Meadow let alone by the ref from 10 yards away???????
The red mist all the time???????
BYEEEEEEEEEEE!
and this seems to be the general opinion.
McCarthy signed?
shoulder injury i think
Dislocated shoulder. Hope it doesn't pop out when we are playing Huddersfield and we then go 5-1 down
Johnny Summers will score 5 - and we'll win 7-6
Thanks, that puts my mind at rest.
can't be arsed to do a link
Wonder if Kinsella had any input ?
Can't really comment, i've never seen him play !
New manager, new ideas. Hasnt played since January so maybe Martin Allen just would rather put his own stamp on things.
I have trust in Pards and Parky and i think its grossly for us to judge a player until we have seen him play. And yes, this is what it is like now, we're a CCC club signing players to play in that league!
players move for all sorts of reasons. No one said that about Danny Mills when he was out the Norwich side when he joined.
Southend mate who went everywhere last season said this bloke is decent.
Come on, it's not that bad, he's a promising player who pards obviously feels he can get more out of. Trust in Pards.
Cos he turned down a new contract and therefore they're cashing rather than lose him for nada
i think maybe people who haven't seen the likes of varney, iwelumo and mccarthy play should just sit tight, they've not even had a photo in the shirt yet and people are already intimating that we are crap for buying from the likes of Crewe, Colchester and Leicester
lets just remember who our last purchase was from colchester and think that without him we might have spent the last 7 seasons pissing about in mid table division one or worse ey boys?
just because we're dropping a division in our market policy, doesn't make every player automatically naff
