What would you do if...

[The Large One]

... one of the really brain-fryingly stupid rumours which you had dismissed out of hand as being 'utter bullshit' turned out to be true - and that that player subsequently signed for us?

Just wondering, like.

 

[Digweeds Trousers]

I would be surprised. Then I would think about it a bit.

And then log off.

 

[Pantani]

I would apologise to the poster of the rumour, then probably start whooping and cheering as many of the rumours have involved players who would destroy this division.

 

[Mendoza]

I would say the player was the best player ever, and I knew all along he was coming, because Gus and T:Bloom are the boom ting

Come September when the player hasnt scored in 3 appearances, I will resort to slagging him off, saying he is shit and a total waste of space and should go on loan to Eastbourne Borough because that is his level.

If he then went on a scoring spree I will call for him to get an international call up, or say he is worth at least £2 million when Southampton want to buy him

 

[SirDouglasLoft]

I would slag the player off unless he has scored at least 40 goals since they were 4.

Ah, the NSC way

I'd get incredibly excited and laugh a lot.

 

[kevtherev]

Do you know something? Im firmly belive there will be a big signing, probbley tomorrrow unveiled/announced at the forum.

 

[Ecosse Exile]

If it was Earnshaw i would be running around the living room like the big dafty i am, punching the air and shouting yes, yes fuckin yes!

Then i'd be telling everyone that might even give a shit, to get their money on us to go up!

Cant see it happening though

 

[bhaexpress]

I would be the first to say well done whoever started said rumour.

 

[Silent Bob]

I would go straight to the club shop and get the new kit with Humberto Suazo's name on the back.

 

[Ernest]

I would SAY it would NEVER have happened with that potless pillock Dick Tight as CHAIRMAN and neither would Falmer.

 

[y2dave]

The only really ridiculous ones for me have been JVH, Hooper, Earnshaw and Simon Cox. I could well see someone like Vassell arriving, Southampton have been in for him and we know where they source most of their targets!

 

[Gritt23]

Depends on which player we're talking about.

Andrei Kanchelskis - I still wouldn't believe it until I saw him play in the stripes.
Robert Earnshaw - piss myself with excitement and lump on at the bookie for us to go up.
Marlon King - I would scream and scream and scream until I'm sick.

[sparkie]

I'm guessing there is something behind this question which could mean one of

Earnshaw
Cox
Vassell
Benjani

etc are signing very soon

 

[Gwylan]

There are loads of caravans parked on the Downs so it could be Freddy Eastwood

 

[Gerbil]

Nothing, because the likes of Earnshaw, Vassel would never come!

I'd just accept that there are SO many rumours on here that one of them was bound to be right eventually. A bit like the way a broken clock always tells the right time twice a day. It still safest to assume that every thread that starts "Just heard that we're going to sign ..." is wrong and that the person who started it is a bit of a wanker.

 

[clippedgull]

I would say it was a lucky guess. And it probably would have been.
