[Bad Boy]

People calling it the Premiership winds me up, it hasn't been called that for nearly 20 years!

Wow!

If that winds you up, you really need to get a life.

Why?
Some people just like things to be accurate instead of "near enough"
Nothing wrong with that.
If it wasn't for people who like to get things right the world would be in an even bigger mess.

It'll always be the first division to me.

Sit down, have a marathon and chill out!

LOL
I'm chilled enough, how about you?

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

LOL

Very!

 

[sc1940]

Very!

With a name that suggests gin & tonic I suppose that's to be expected.

If you're talking about spelling Hutch's name correctly, I'm with you all the way

I still call the CBS, The Ricoh.

It's a football forum!

When he scored that hattrick at Watford last season, Gurney had to prompt Lampard post match to even mention Simms. I know it was by then a glorified friendly but that second goal was spectacular.
Simms scored some crucial goals last season and was a really effective sub when he came on. I've always liked him. He's a goalscorer, a fox in the box, and is deceptively quick and strong when he wants to be.
I think because he is 6'3" and a unit, you expect a different game from him.
He reminds me of a top striker from the 80s-90s.
Tall, but not a target man, a goalscorer. Brian Deane, Lee Chapman, Alan Smith (Arsenal)... That kind of player.

Lampard said somewhere he is the quickest in the squad over a distance but can't remember if it was long or short

Debatable!!

Chill, it's all.just soccer at the end of the day

 

[skybluejelly]

I reckon he will move to Wrexham on a free at the end of the season , they love our old players

He’ll go to a championship club in Jan. Wolves is my guess.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

He’ll be sold in January

 

[wingy]

Or West ham.

 

[wingy]

West ham maybe looking also by then.

 

[Shannerz]

A word that should only be used in conjunction with 'Sensible'.

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

It'll always be the first division to me.

That was before SKY invented football

 

[theskyisthelimit]

Or West ham.

West Ham would be a good move for him. Any championship club would be lucky to have him as (except his second season with us) he has a great minute to goals ratio

 

[Sick Boy]

He’ll be sold in January

There's no incentive for him to agree to a deal at this point; he'll end up leaving on a free and getting a larger signing-on fee.

 

[TomRad85]

Exactly. If Wright is fit Simms may be loaned out until his contract ends but we've missed the boat for getting any money for him.

 

[CCFCSteve]

Some teams are desperate in Jan so will chuck a load of cash at him anyway and if he’s not playing much here then I can see a move happening

 

[Skybluecov1]

If Wrexham are just outside the play offs, I can see them making a bid for him to push them over the lie.

 

[Grendel]

Exactly. If Wright is fit he may be loaned out until his contract ends but we've missed the boat for getting any money for him.

Wright has another year left?

 

[Sick Boy]

Wright has another year left?

I think his contract expires summer 2027 - as he's still here, I imagine we've got a year option.

 

[Grendel]

Sakamoto is a free agent in the summer as well

 

[TomRad85]

Wright has another year left?

I meant if Wright is fit then Simms might be loaned out.

 

[Captain Dart]

I meant if Wright is fit then Simms might be loaned out.

Only if he refuses to sign a new deal. His situation needs to be resolved.

 

[TomRad85]

Simms won't sign a deal, he'd be 4th choice! From his point of view, what would be the point?

 

[SleepyGinger]

Doesn’t strike me as the type to refuse a move in January in order to get a big signing on fee in the summer. If he’s available there will be a lot of interest. Look at the clamour for Piroe last January.
