  1. might be slightly off topic, but has anybody been to see This Is England?

    was a really great film imo, but with current times i think easily led people could be pushed towards recial hatred.

     

    for anyone whos not seen it, its based around some BNP extremists. quite racially violent. yet quite moving and difficult to watch in parts

  2. West Ham are leading the chase for Fenerbahce £5m-rated midfielder Stephen Appiah. (Daily Mirror)

     

    I'v stuck this in here because its paper talk and got feck all to do with us but with talk of 4+ mil for Koumas the above is a signing I'd love us to make.

     

    Carsley's replacement with a touch more class!!

     

    Oppinions anyone??

     

    id be just as excited if we got him as i would if we gor requelme!

    Appiah is a fantastic footballer!

    would be perfect for us imo

  3. mac i thought the same about torres, then his goal scoring record was put infront of me. he only managed somethin like 7 goals in 44 games last season (approx) but i do wish we could afford a £27m risk

     

    im still unsure of nugent, but i hope he makes my mind up for me in a blue shirt (not a pompy blue thou!)

  4. this is the first ive heard of the glasgow attack, had my head in a bottle most of the weekend.

    but im really worried about the london attacks, my sister and her husband live in london and my mum has been visiting them this weekend.

     

    the world we live in is certainly a troubled place!

  5. This rumour has been around that long that we're now likening players to cars.............luv it!!!!

     

    Well it has to be said I once owned a car like our very own VDM!.....It was foreign,drank

    a lot,was always breaking down.......and I sold it for far less than I paid for it :angry:

     

    you once owned an alfa romeo!

  6. But DM seems very loathe to play them, how old is Barni Vidarsson now, been here about 3 years has'nt he, i think he's older than Vaughan and Annichebe.

     

    i think Bjarni is about 18/19 now. but we havent really been short on centre midfielders have we?

    hes made the bench a fair few times.

     

    there is always a risk when bringing in youngsters. most teams will risk playing a young striker, as there is little risk of damage, but not many will try a teenage defender.

    maybe in a couple of years we might start seeing more of jack the rock too, but i cant see him breaking through till his 20's

  7. i agree with what your saying about not taking the chance on the quality like Ashton (it was thought he had weight problems when he was coming through) Bent, Sharp.

     

    but with letting the players go, since moyes has come in, the players that have been let go havent done much at our level. i stil honestly believe that if the players are good enough they will make it here at EFC. alot of people say about Hughes being let go (well, sold for pennies) i cant say i rated him.even for the reserves he didnt look fantastic. i still dont think Vic will make a top half of the prem type player. but Vaughan has more about him, and JPK has been showing signs of making the grade for about 2 years. when he steps up a level im sure we'll see another one of our youth system blowing up.

     

    hopefully finch farm will help with development too
