I take it you didn't make it then

I think the main advantage we have with Stead is the sell on value. As he is so young we could have him for 5 years and still sell him on for a huge profit. If we had signed McBride the sell on fee would be non existent due to his age.

I thought he was at Bolton now!!!

Surely the reason he has not been able to find a job is because of the mess he made whilst manageing Celtic 'briefly', and not anything to do with the colour of his skin.

excellent post AESF. He doesn't seem to know what side of the fence he is on.

Moved

Hats off to you spark! I think an extra word is required between Johnny and Stead, or before the Johnny. "and its gone straight to my head" is the original so the new one must be "and there's only one John Stead" both got 7 sylabuls.

Is it just me or does it fit better with "and there's only one John Stead"

I'll just clear this up for you as you seem somewhat confused.... Your song sounds remotely similar to a song Jordan, T4E, Tom Pringle and a few others started relating to young gally. It wen't something like Galler ger ger ger won't you score a goal for me Galler ger ger ger won't you score a goal for me with your left with your right with your head or with your knee galler ger ger won't you score a goal for me. Now as you may notice it is very similar to the song that you invented . I'm sure the boys will be chuffed that you heard it and felt it good enough to copy, there copyright lawyers however may not!!!

Kelly ,Flitcroft ,Duff ,Peacock ,Dunn ,Short ,Harkness ,Frandsen ,Grayson ( Jansen ,80 ) ,Gillespie ,Ostenstad Subs not used Miller, Johnson, Davidson, Dailly, This is the team from Souness's first game in charge. Compare this to our team from this season. Kelly Friedel Peacock Todd Short Short Grayson Babbel Harkness Gresko Gillespie Emerton Dunn Ferguson Flitty Flitty Duff Neill / Mahon / Nissa / Thommo Ostenstad Cole Frandson Tugay Look at the bench, Davidson, Dailly, Johnson. Today we had Cole and Jansen on the bench. I think we have to look how far things have come on since Souness took over.

Tim, I've just started playing this too. Fancy organising a friendly game for next Wednesday. My screen name on Hattrick is Rickster1978 my team is Ricky's Rovers, the team number is 61349. I think you need this to sort a friendly

If you want a funny read go for "Freaky Dancin'". Its an autobiography by Bez from the Happy Mondays, its a crackin good book

24 but I had a hard paper round!!!

I always treat each post individualy T4E This means that I have managed to upset several of you lot by editing or deleting your posts. Lets try not to turn this thread into an argument on Christmas eve. Merry Christmas all....

Moderation mode rovermatt and tamerton can you leave the politics out of this thread please. Lets try to keep to the subject in hand please.

Bit harsh Not at all harsh. He was at fault for the first goal where he forgot that Larsson sometimes likes to put the little round thing between the big white sticks. Then he let sutton get in front of him for the headed second goal. He even looked the other bloody way when sutton headed it. It wouldn't have been so bad but he had a warning earlier when sutton did exactly the same but put it wide. One of Lucas' worst games in recent times.

Jas If Celtic fans hadn't turned up with fake tickets i'm sure you would have found your seat easily.

oh, so the atmosphere's flat now is it. See i'm sure all you scots have been on this board for the last 3 weeks telling us how loud it will be and how rovers fans would not believe the atmosphere....... going back to an earlier post fulham are obviuosly going to be 16-1. They have just won 3-0 away from home so are pretty much guarenteed to go through to the next round.

Tris I was amazed that City didn't sell out. I had a ticket already and on the saturday before the match my misses decided she wanted to come aswell. I rang the ticket office and got a ticket no problem at all. I was at brum and we didn't take loads there either. If I new you were at Citeh I would have given you a call.

Nice one! Like I said if you can argue a case where you definately deserve it, as yours was the club have to be reasonable, probably be a good seat as well if it was one they held back for corperate ( I guess this is the case)

Teamtalk are now saying he is definately out of the celtic game at parkhead.

abbey I pulled a similar trick in a pub once, got in a nd some jumped up little hitler started asking me for ID and being really arsy, I'm 24 and never get asked for id so don't carry it. In the end he decided to serve me so I ordered a good size round (there was a few of us) and promptly walked out the door when he put the last pint on the bar............ I even pulled the same line of shove it up yer arse....... made me chuckle seeing someone else do the same thing
