QPR’s nasty stink in the Bush!
Posted on 03 January 2012.
You have to laugh. Norwich’s Bradley Johnson has had a pop at Joey Barton, but has clearly been told how to spell breath and been obliged to make a correction – check out the A which has obviously been changed from a T. But never mind Barton’s “breth”, there’s a nasty stink in the Bush in…

Two weeks to land three signings.
Posted on 03 January 2012.
Forget the FA Cup, it really doesn’t matter this season and has proved a distraction in the past. For once I would back the selection of a second string and almost welcome an early exit. The last thing we need is injuries and suspensions incurred in a tournament that we don’t stand a cat in…

West Ham 1 Coventry 0 – Satan Gives and Allardyce Takes
Posted on 02 January 2012.
Well Satan is fulfilling his part of the bargain. This was another stuttering performance – with the team again only managing a single goal against weak opposition – but incredibly, we sit joint top at the end of the day. Never mind events at Upton Park, Southampton and Miserableboro both suffered 3-0 defeats, with the Saints losing Lambert to a red cars for …

New Year, New Hope
Posted on 02 January 2012.
Well 2011 ended just as you would have expected it to end – miserably. December really was a terrible month, stripped of all seasonal cheer – except for Nolan and Faubert who successfully negotiated their day off with their bookings at Birmingham. 2011 really was a terrible, terrible year. Apart from our exploits in …

Wolves want Piquionne
Posted on 02 January 2012.
Hard to believe! Why would anybody want a 33 year old striker who can’t score and who has been relegated in each of the last two seasons? Perhaps somebody has misunderstood and Doctor Evil has simply decided to feed the Fly Tipper to the pack of wolves he keeps in the woods around his castle!

Could we really sign Kebe?
Posted on 01 January 2012.
Apparently we are interested in Reading’s Kebe. You have to ask “Really?” on two counts. Firstly, the guy is very, very, very hit and miss. The guy is 27 and has achieved nothing in the game to date, managing just 3 caps for Mali! Reading fans regard him as lightweight, a player who lacks heart and desire. He is…
