anewman Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Fuck Eagles. It's commons its a done deal Quote
famouswanderer Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 i know im gunna get shot down for this. But can we not bring beckford back? at least till we get another striker in Quote
anewman Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 i know im gunna get shot down for this. But can we not bring beckford back? at least till we get another striker in That statue outside would be more effective. Place sir Nat on the penalty spot and he has a better chance of hitting the onion bag Quote
Ani Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 i know im gunna get shot down for this. But can we not bring beckford back? at least till we get another striker in Have we done badly without him ? NL is building a team, still within a budget, it would seem Beckford is not a player who fits with that. Probably because Beckford is a complete and utter cunt. Quote

Juan.Kerr Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 See, that's the problem. Can NL repeat his feat of changing our once shot-shy lazy bunch of tossers into the upwardly mobile squad we have now with Eagles and Beckford if they come back ? If it works his hero status is enhanced, if it doesn't, and we miss the chance of Commons and others we're no better off for them coming back. Quote
Traf Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Eagles is on little more than fuck all at Blackpool. On those kind of terms, he'd be worth a punt under Lenny. He still has the potential of being one of the best in this league. Quote
Traf Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Plus whatever he'd cost would hardly affect the budget for other players. Quote
Juan.Kerr Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 I meant miss out on Commons and others in timing rather than cost, but you're right. Quote
Casino Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Eagles is on little more than fuck all at Blackpool. tomski would argue theres a reason for that Quote
Traf Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 tomski would argue theres a reason for that He'd be wrong. Quote
BOWTUN BAKED Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 I'd be wrong too then. We've moved on from Dr Eagles. Let's keep it that way. Quote
Casino Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 He'd be wrong. so, go on why exactly is he playing for buttons for the league shite Quote
Traf Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Honestly, I don't know, but I'm not convinced it's because he isn't good enough for anyone else. Quote
Traf Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 If, and it's a big if, Lenny could get him to buy in to the new philosophy, he could be a cheap stand in for Chungy and/or Davies. Quote
tomski Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 He'd be wrong.Its bollocks anyway. Lenny wouldn't sign that ponce. Look at how his midfield works. Honestly stop winding me up if you believe he could exercise that work rate. Quote
CumbrianWhite Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Eagles stats in the championship for us more than prove he's very capable. Definitely worth a punt and think he'd come back to us as well. Quote
BOWTUN BAKED Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Eagles stats in the championship for us more than prove he's very capable. Definitely worth a punt and think he'd come back to us as well. Interesting. Which Stats? & capable of what? Quote
Traf Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 He's our top goal scorer since relegation and hasn't played for almost a year. Quote
BOWTUN BAKED Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 (edited) Like a lot of stats, that'll help to paint a picture, though it doesn't tell the whole story. Edit: in fact, is that even true? Edited December 23, 2014 by BOWTUN BAKED Quote
Traf Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 13 goals in the Championship for us. Chris Eagles 13 David N'Gog 11 Lee Chung-Yong 10 Joe Mason 10 Mark Davies 8 Craig Davies 8 Jermaine Beckford 7 Neil Danns 7 Andre Moritz 7 Lukas Jutkiewicz 7 Kevin Davies 6 Matt Mills 5 Jay Spearing 5 Darren Pratley 5 Marvin Sordell 4 Marcos Alonso 4 Keith Andrews 4 Craig Dawson 4 Alex Baptiste 4 Martin Petrov 3 Medo 3 Benik Afobe 2 Zat Knight 2 David Wheater 2 Liam Feeney 2 Rob Hall 1 Kevin McNaughton 1 Liam Trotter 1 Dean Moxey 1 Max Clayton 1 Quote
BOWTUN BAKED Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Top few would've done Traf, just looking at the stats now, scary! Though as interesting a fact it is, in isolation, without other things, the whole story isn't told. For obvious reasons Dr Eagles was the subject of many conversations this weekend, upshot is, he's Marmite, folk love him or hate him. Personally I think he's a pound shop David Beckham wannabe! He may have some individual talent but too often forgets it's a team sport. He's moved on & so should we. If he was as good as he thinks he is, he wouldn't be where he is. Quote
Ratwhite Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 (edited) If we were interested in little Chris, would he not command a fee, being an employee of Blackpool? A fee which we don't seem to have, no matter how small. Know (fuck all) it all Nixon, tweeting "don't go there" when questioned about Bolton in comings in Jan. the comments echo is comments from Pre-season this and last season. If, this is the case, can't see NL (needing to) hanging around for long with no funds. In Many people's eyes hes already proved himself and his profile will keep him in the limelight (see BBC, Sky and many Radio interviews we've already seen/heard). I'm sure there are envious glances being cast in our/his direction by other championship and maybe even Premeier League clubs now.......... Edited December 23, 2014 by Ratwhite Quote
