Latest Rumours Summer Transfer Window Thread 2019

Taylor Moore captains Bristol City’s first pre season friendly. Don’t know what to read into that.

That we ain’t getting him

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Can we just consign taylor moore to the ex shrimpers forum. As others have said he was a Powell signing. If he was going to sign for us he would have done. Bond is surely looking at a different type of centre back.

Simon Royce is the new goalkeeper coach at gillingham under Steve Evans.

His effort was commendable, but I’m sorry , the ‘effort’ thing just clouded peoples views and he really wasn’t very good IMO.
People that run around a lot and try to make decent tackles always make fans think they are our saviour, but to me it doesn’t have the same effect - sorry Timlin fans

Well im old enough to remember Ron Poutney. Imho the only difference in your description of Timlin and Poutney is that Poutney although running around a lot generally arrived to late to make a decent tackle.

No fishing. Just my memory from the West Stand (standing only (obviously)). His effort enabled Dave Smith to play an alleged (I was to young to analyse it) 4-2-4 formation.




That's going to go down well!!!

"3 cups on the desk...never stop believin' "

I think the Russ Abbott 'gag' was Basildon Bond?

 

[Crowstone Crevette]

Totally laughable that anyone suggesting White might be worth keeping should allude to his goal scoring prowess!
I was behind the goal at Scunthorpe when his mi**** cross(how appropriate!) drifted in—it was his first ever goal in approximately 250 appearances.Wikipedia now tells us he now has AMASSED 7 goals in 425 league and cup appearances.

Dictionary definition: gather together or accumulate over a period of time.

Wiki spot on.

If you want to have a go at JW then do but don't be lazy and ill-informed

PS. To many 'nows' in your last sentence.

Not just him... Micky Laverick was key in that two man midfield who, as you say, put so much effort in it was like playing 4-4-4.

And FWIW I think you're being a touch harsh on Ron. Wee Dave Cunningham was the one who kept arriving late...

yep, my dad used to work as a car salesman for Lex rover and us kids got the freebies they used to give away with cars. One of which was a "comedy" cassette with various comedians promoting Austin Rover. Anyway for some reason as a kid I used to play it all the time (even though it was rubbish). The joke was "the names bond, basil bond, but my friends call me by my middle name Don" I listened to it hundreds of times because I was a weird kid.

And quite a weird adult
