Makes sense. Would be good to have extra cover/options.
That lad from Oxford was mentioned…and others have said yer man from Blackburn, although I don’t know if he can play in the middle.
That we don’t seem to have been linked with him, a right winger who is on a free and is supposed to be good, give me a bit of excitement about who we might be after…not that I know, just assume it must be someone ‘better’.
I was there for that. Was it his debut?!
He got sent off for an alleged foul on Jimmy F-H. He was crying when he came off and tbf got a fair bit of applause from the Chelsea fans as well.
Anyone know when the Bristol Rovers tickets are going on sale?
I can see that Rovers are already selling them so is it just through them? I can’t remember how friendlies work.
You mean they’re proven in the prem? still only 25 too I suppose.
Possibly less risk but £70mil is still a fair old whack.
Unfortunately I’m entirely blinkered when it comes to Vik and think he’ll excel in the prem.
I’m liking the silence tbf. There’ll definitely be a few coming in for sure…I’d love it if they were all surprises!
*you’ve not heard anything then? (I know, I know).
Yeah, i wasn’t really basing my view of him on that match…hence why i was asking. He was highly rated back then too.
Have you seen him play regularly? I’m just wondering how good he really is as I don’t watch too much prem football.
Yup 1985/86 for me. Got down to the last 50 so could send off. I remember trading to get Allan Evans to get me to the magic number…”got, got, need, got etc etc etc”
My first ever game was 1982 and it was Les Sealy (apparently) vs spurs but I don’t really count it as my first.
I started going up regularly in 1987 so it was Oggy vs Luton. In goal for Luton that day? Les Sealy.
Is it? Worth a watch then?
I watched the last one and thought it was ‘alright’ and was expecting better given the hype.
I had really enjoyed the film ‘Battle Royale’ which I think SG takes from.
I think it was the year we came up and played Blackburn and thinking how good he was. I think someone on here even mentioned how great it would be to sign him and was instantly ridiculed for living in ‘dreamland’.
We’ve come a long way.
