Quote: Conman "Who'd of thought Hibbert's first goal would've been a strike from outside of the area!

New free kick taker...?
Make sure there's no threat but standing around him like he did? Unnecessary IMO.

Looking forward to out game v Rovrum at the weekend, last time big fat Steve Evans was at the KC him and his assistant got sent off after a confrontation with Barmby and our fitness coach, so I'm sure he'll get a warm reception!

Tony Hibbert......how he has managed so long in the top flight is beyond me.

Loads of people trying to read into DAgger throwing his shirt to the fans after tonight's game. Just think it was him being nice but also realistic, if there's a chance he could go, at least he's making the most of the last few days. His tattoo on his hand is also a nice touch, if he goes, he'll leave with my best wishes.

I honestly think he'll try and reject any move. Have you seen his comments from when Torres left? Absolutely loves the club.

Yes he was, I meant I hope they stay together at Liverpool but didn't phrase it too well.

Quote: Roddy B "I've said on here I'm a big fan of Skrtel. He's had his moments, but generally he's a pretty complete defender. Quite quick, agile, tall, strong, decent on the ball and has a good attitude. His worst attributes are generally his set piece defending. As a defender, I'd say Skrtel is a better defender than Agger, Agger is better than him on set pieces, but Skrtel generally defends better in open play. Agger is more skilled and is more of a captain than Skrtel, but they'd make a class partnership if they get the nod this season (assuming Agger stays, which doesn't look likely).'"


I think agger is the better player, but skrtel may be more the type of player city need. He answers the question "what do we do when kompany is unavailable?" better.

There are two types of people in this world. Those that can't stand Steve Evans and Steve Evans.

Do remember to point out his criminal conviction for fraud, won't you?

Rubbish, it's just a facade to keep the fans on side. If everyone reacts like Roddy and doesn't terrorise him when he returns with City or when seen in the North West by scousers, it's a good thing yeah? He may well be kicking off and demanding a move behind the scenes. Any person in any job has to be at least give serious consideration to doubling or trippling your pay?

Quote: Saddened! "Any person in any job has to be at least give serious consideration to doubling or trippling your pay?'"

A debate we often have in the pub. It's all relative innit. Tripling my current salary would make a massive difference to my circumstances and lifestyle. But if I was already on, say, £50k a week, tripling that would be irrelevant. It's a ridiculous amount of money being tripled to another ridiculous amount of money and makes naff all difference.
The numbers the very top players are getting amounts to little other than a male appendage measuring contest, the perception of how great, important etc you are because there's another zero on your pay slip compared to the other guy.

Well put.

But although we recognise that, seemingly so many footballers are can't.

Then that footballer is more of a colossal idiot than could possibly be imagined.
