  1. Looked pretty decent in the games I saw him play, wouldn't have minded him here on a permanent basis. But I don't think he was that keen on living 'oop North so no surprise to see him sign for someone down there.
  2. For me we can't be thinking of having Flintoff bat at 6 - he's shown next to no form with the bat even when fit for quite a while. I'd pick him as a bowler and have him come in at 8. Providing everyone is fit my team for the 1st test would be Strauss Cook Bopara Pietersen Bell Collingwood Prior Flintoff Broad Swann Anderson Plenty of depth to the batting and the 5th bowler duties could be shared between Collingwood, Bopara and Pietersen.
  3. Heard a rumour - mate works for a long time sponsor within the club - that these two are on Penney's radar as potental signings. Anyone any views positive/negative on this? For me Holt would fit the bill nicely for Left back and I wouldn't be against Hughes coming back. Same guy reckons that Abbott is more likely to sign for Huddersfield than us but that may in turn lead to us signing Jevons.
  4. Anyone remember that game when Grimsby beat us 3-0 at BP? Think it was in 97 and a young John Oster ripped us apart - that player would be a great signing! Pretty sure that was Sharps last game as manager as well.
  5. Yeah he'd my first choice - pretty unlucky to get the sack at Ipswich IMO. Think Gary Speed will make a very good manager one day but think TTA may want someone with experience. Sammy McIlroy could fit the bill - good local and non-league knowledge, may be able to pick up some gems lurking in the Blue Sqaure Premier etc
  6. Always rated Pawel Abbott from his Huddersfield days - had his injury problems but a good player at our level when he's at it. Thought the centre half Miller looked decent as well.
  7. That chance he missed at Carlisle a couple of years ago will leave long in the memory!
  8. Ability would be the main reason - can't picture O'Grady scoring a hat-trick in the manner Lewi did against Scunny somehow. In the games i've seen O'Grady play he hasn't even been nuisance value.
  9. Thought Constantine did ok for us in his time here - was a bit disappointed we didn't look at making it permanent. Had a nice touch and an eye for goal and I reckon him and Hughes could have made a good partnership as well. Same with Jarrett - he brought good energy to the midfield - something we're badly lacking.
  10. I'm no Alessandra fan but i think he's twice the player O'Grady is. Why Shez actually paid a fee for him I'll never know.
  11. Anyone notice how he hasn't been on the telly since he left us? Couldn't stay off the thing while he was here
  12. Can't see what all the fuss is about with Peterborough Looking at Leicester's squad no way should they be 2nd favourites Don't like to say it but think Huddersfield will go well Ternant knows what's required and I think their signings look good Obviously Leeds will be up there , along with Colchester and think Bristol Rovers will go well - I think Darryl Duffy is a great signing for them
  13. I'm worried about where the goals are coming from if as looks likely Hughes can't stay fit for any period of time.
