    Pivotal Sky Blue Moments

    i guess the definition of “close” is key. with Trezeguet if I recall the book correctly, he wasn’t getting a game at Monaco and we made contact and there was a deal to be done, but we decided on Moldovan. Is that ‘close’, I dunno. its all academic really though as Trezeguet would have been...

    Pivotal Sky Blue Moments

    we also tried to buy David Trezeguet and Mario Ganz in 1998, and apparently came pretty close. That’s taken from Strachan himself via Rick Gekoski’s book- “Staying Up”

    Pivotal Sky Blue Moments

    By the very nature of a club like ours there are so many, one thing we’ve never had is stability. Positive pivotal moment: Losing to Kings Lynn in 1961- because that persuaded a hitherto undecided Jimmy Hill to take the manager’s job, as “i can’t fail here can I, things are already rock bottom”...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    i also saw this stuff about EU red tape from the evil Germans and despicable French nobody seems to be wondering why no countries within the EU have to suffer this red tape, and nobody seems to realise that nothing in the rules have changed, it’s us that’s changed- we were in, now we’re out. We...

    Well let’s see then, what have you made up.. You said I was talking about Trump (a lie), you said I was talking about Hancock (a lie), and you said that I am protective of China (a lie). And with that I have dissected your post and shown you- to use your words- “exactly what you have made up”...

    Please show me where I have mentioned Hancock or Trump. Alternatively you can admit you’re making things up.

    I have missed something here obviously, what’s this got to do with the tories, how have they been involved with Fauci? (FYI I am not labour or Tory before that gets slung at me)

    Actually it partially is, it’s also partially the usual anti-China rhetoric as some people are desperate to believe they did it all on purpose, and for whatever reason some people hate Fauci. You’re just recycling rubbish you’ve read, don’t know why this speculation & rumour floats peoples boat...

    I don’t begrudge the older generation one iota for having more, what is tiresome is when they feel the need to make out it was all down to them being smarter or better than today’s younger people with all the “when I were a lad we lived on gruel and woodbines so we’d have more money when we got...

    Championship next season

    I’m as optimistic as anyone, but... ...staying up is the aim again next season, just the same as this season. Offer me fourth bottom now and I’d snap your hand off. Take a look at the accounts, and bear in mind the impact of St Andrews. It’s going to be a similar summer to the others-...

    Does Micky Gynn not get a look in here? He was with us through the legendary "end of season relegation battles" in the mid 80s, then won the cup with us, and was still playing 20 games in a season in the Premier League a whole decade after joining us. Exciting player too. And to keep everyone...
