TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 (edited) Wasn’t CBM called up to the NI squad? I thought he was, but he hasn’t featured in either of the matchday squads. Edited September 8 by TPAFKA Jersey 2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I would rather our players were fit for league games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep...Jobby Mccall didn't earn that nickname for nothing. Stainrod apparently claimed his shoes grew 2 sizes after wards but I'm dubious!

Coventry Saint Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 FFS, what is it with footballers and shitting in places? John Potter shat in a pumpkin while at Saints. It's not clear whose the pumpkin was, or why it was available to him to shit in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Mair’s pumpkin I believe which makes it absolutely fine - an absolute helmet of a man. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry Saint Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 The question is less 'why did John Potter shit in Lee Mair's pumpkin?' and more 'Why don't more people do it?' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creativity and genuinely exciting players at that level have been replaced with mindless possession machines who will pass the ball sideways rather than run at a man. Ball retention takes precedence above anything else. Came on here to have a look at the van Veen chat and this caught my eye. Absolutely bang on the money. I remember watching the Man City v Arsenal game towards the end of last season. Both teams fighting for the title and the played out the most boring 0-0 I've seen in years. Two Spanish c***s reducing the game to 22 robots doing what has been programmed into them. Don't get me started on the stupid practise with defenders taking goal kicks to the goalkeeper to then launch it 60 yards. Had to watch that with McKenna & Angus Gunn. Infuriating, especially when the shite goalie just launches it back to the opposition anyway. Going back to van Veen, it really depends on what his heid is like. There's no doubting he's a quality player but expecting him to get anywhere near his last season at Motherwell is bonkers. His career shows that he'd never done it before but more importantly, KVV knew himself he was playing for the big contract that was coming his way. Motherwell weren't going to stand in his way and he wanted that big contract to set himself, his partner and the baby that was on way, up. Going back to the Netherlands was good for him financially, but not great personally as his missus and newborn stayed in Scotland. He'll certainly be happier being in Scotland with his family, but KVV without something to aim for? It'll be interesting to see from afar but I wouldn't have the hopes too high. He'll certainly be far better in a front two, however, and he obviously has a bit of experience of playing alongside big Mandron. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I think most people's expectations on here are pretty well managed. From my perspective, I am not expecting anything like the Van Veen of that season at Motherwell. If he can be a 12-15 goals a season man, I'll be absolutely delighted. Any less is a meh and anything more will be an absolute bonus. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure he can help KVV find some form. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
