Has anyone made the "scraping the barrel" joke yet?

And the massive new sackful of cash helped too.

To be fair, I think that fans calling for unlimited money spunking are in a tiny minority. We've seen too many clubs crash and burn chasing the dream. It might be a bit boring sometimes (deep down we all want shiny new signings of course), but i think that most fans appreciate that Tony's...

Exactly. At PCC back in the day, I always imagined Varndean a bit like this. Then again we were too busy with Hove Park to worry about those poshos.

Would be a massive punt based on my 30 seconds of detailed research (skim read of wiki).

What's Iain Dowie up to these days?

Let's see how many Pepperami Firesticks he can eat in one go before we get too engrossed in the fine details.

Pepperami. It's a bit of an animal. We just don't know which bit. (Viz letterbocks).

We'll put you down as a No then.

Me and my mate cadged a lift from Derek to the Millwall play off second leg (my mate was working for him at the time). Seemed a very busy guy. His phone was ringing non stop. Actual, real-life fans on the boards seem much rarer these days, especially in the PL. Not the most exciting story I...

What about him for defence (not parky).

He sounds much more exotic than McKenna or Potter. I'm in.

With Colwill, Chelsea set their stall out early with some pretty robust language that he was one one for the future and he was going nowhere. Difficult to row back from that position without looking like they don't know what they're doing (ha ha). But we tried our best I think.

Spot on. Compare his extended sniping after the (very mild) boogate here to his reaction to the choruses of boos at the Bridge after every loss or draw. "I understand the fans frustrations" etc etc, bow, scrape. Pur-lease..

A lot of noise surrounding the "main candidates". I'm just waiting another week or so until we appoint someone I've probably never heard of.

Ah, the old quadruple cross. Like it. If it was the good old days of WW2 we could strap a briefcase to a dead tramps wrist with a list of shit managers titled "Tony's Top Secret Manager List" and drop him in the Thames somewhere, then sit back with a fat cigar and enjoy. But it's not so we won't.

Have they got anyone nicknamed "breaks your legs"? I'll have him.

These are a good point. At the Chelsea game a few weeks back I was getting a bit light headed after a while. Still, on the plus side, I've managed to develop a lovely deep boo (even if I do say so myself).

Maybe it's some kind of cold war style "triple cross" to lure chelsea into re-employing Potts.

I'd like to propose Victoria Crosses be pre-awarded to all the poor sods in supporter services in recognition of their supreme sacrifice in the face of biblical levels of whingeing.
