    I'm not a fan of what I'm about to say because it's used unnecessarily at times. But Oldham is a proper northern club. Good to see them back in the league. Chuffed for 'em.

Never known a club to have so many fans desert em. Probably met a handful of ‘used to be Blackburn’ fans. Bottom feeders.

Not a big club since about 1892

Couldn’t think of anything worse. Hooray the premier league. Should be allowed to be filled in.

Dempsey playing for Gills tonight v Shrewsbury

Stockport going top of the NL tonight, they've been on some run since beating us in the FAC

Sarcevic signing was key. 

Borehamwood and Chesterfield will pass them. Games in hand.

Sarc must be due a hammy soon

Dempsey reportedly much happier at Gills now that the manager has gone.

Poor lambs are having a couple of weeks off for winter. Absolutely ridiculous given the games that need rearranging. Dare say they will still be having training camps and friendlies abroad. 

Zaha being a prick again here

Fulhams goal difference is +48! 73 scored in 27 games is some going.

What a cock he is.

All about him and his sulky ways. His teammates must feel like giving him a slap.

That bloke's fat lip must have hurt.

Could have been OUR cock though, intead of Sordell. £250,000 killed it. Ooops.

Wouldn't have stayed long. Either moved on again for profit or sold off back to Palace.

Oh, certainly. But we'd have had a player, not a Sordell who never played. We'd have got that extra point, stayed up & who knows.

Then made a profit.

It'd have been worth the small extra.

Maybe.

Or he could have potted his leg, or just been shit.

Lots of ifs.

Fwiw, I'm glad we didn't get him; one of the most petulant, moaning footballers I've seen.

Apart from a brief spell at utd, he's not gone anywhere big and never did anything with England. Surely there is a reason for this?

Not really the issue.

A half season later he moved to Stretford for £10m ... we'd have got him for a Sordell (£3m) plus £250k.

He only played 2 league games for Stretford before being loaned back to Palace, Cardiff, Palace again & finally re-signed for Palace.

Stories at the time were that he was shagging Moyses' daughter. Not only that but being very indiscrete about it.

I agree he's a prick & inconsistent. But he'd have been better than Sordell AND we'd have moved him on for considerably more than the £250k we scrimped on.

Like I said- all ifs and buts.

No one knows what he'd have done. Total supposition, and all a bit pointless. History is littered with similar stories and no doubt for all clubs.

What if we'd signed Drogba?

General opinion on here at the time was that our chairmen did the right thing by not busting the bank and overspending. Had we done who knows what would have happened, but its of no consequence. 

Sordell was a panic buy by 'piss it up the wall but don't get pissed' Coyle - a lad with issues and a preference for playing music, with a girlfriend in London and living out of a suitcase on a retail park in Horwich - what could possibly go wrong?

Never knew Bert Trautmann was part of Hitler Youth.

How the fuck was he allowed to play over here?
