RoadRunnerFan Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Sorry interpreted 'glad we did it' as the 'glad we had the good times' rather than 'glad we had a go at getting back'. Which we did from a wage spend point of view - just wasted it on shite - whole period was a farce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitestar Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Never really had any beef with any of our ex players, can't really think of many who thought they were bigger than the club. Just got thinking, what ever happened to Nigel reo coker???? He had a decent season,,, Actually, is it just me or, has every Nigel you have very met been a dickhead or a loser????

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted January 5 Site Supporter Share Posted January 5 (edited) Was at uni with a Nigel. He was very odd but in a perfectly pleasant way. He turned orange too, bit like Trump. Edited January 5 by Tonge moor green jacket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He activated a release clause in his contract almost immediately after relegation Seemingly, he later realised he'd been too hasty because I remember Zat Knight testing the waters for his return in the BN a couple of weeks afterwards Wikipedia tells me he eventually became a journeyman in Canada and the US before retiring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Faustus Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 1 hour ago, gonzo said: Indeed. I mention such in my earlier posts. We were like a drunk lottery winner trying to recapture pissed up the wall winnings. The Dougie Freedman era sealed the deal and nearly saw the death of us forever... ....that era was always going to come after the heights we had been. If I hadn’t seen such riches I could live with being poor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricketts' ego ballooned after playing 45 minutes for England. Don't think he scored for us again after that, and looked like he wanted/deserved to be elsewhere. Although my memory has probably exaggerated it. Edited January 5 by Cheese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big sam said as soon as he got that England call up that was it. His agent was all over the show. Had the chance of going Spurs but his agent said he could get more waiting. Didnt he go for £3.5m? Madness. For that short spell he was like a prime Drogba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is he club doesn't seem to leak anymore and no-one in this place seems to no owt either. Wasn't it Tyldesley White who claimed to have a source in the club? Probably all for the best, but not fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty spot on , I think he scored 4 or 5 goals in the December before he left in the January IIRC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 He knew he was getting taken off at half time for Darius Vasel before the game. 45 mins to make your mark as a lone striker. No good that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall Allardyce getting very animated by it & when it was clear he was going Sam determined that wherever he went it was NOT going to be Spurs.
