Fictional players who’d do a job for us.

[bibbity bobbity boo]

Paco DIaz in the Duffy role

 

[8lade]

None of these wankers would get in our current team!
(Except maybe Brown Fox).

 

[RealMcCoy]

Looks like Alf Tupper. Runner and Welder. I mean Welder and runner.

Yes indeed. “Tough of the track”

 

[Guesty]

Gorgeous Gus. He could buy the club and install himself as Centre Forward.

 

[Isaw Joeshaw]

None of the above .

Only Baldy Hogan and Cannonball Kid would do it for me ( although I am going back just a few years )

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

None of these wankers would get in our current team!
(Except maybe Brown Fox).

Steve Mcdonald won't be happy to hear you call Tommy Orpington a wanker.

If the Union Jack had been where the Spain flag is in the crowd it would look a bit like the starting graphics from Dad's Army.
What a player by the way.

 

[Cerberus Blade]

Hot Shot Hamish would be a brilliant signing.

Any more?

Looks like Bobby Campbell, the ex-Bradford striker that we signed.

 

[bibbity bobbity boo]

Lynda Block to become owner

 

[Jim Chimmerney]

 

[1889]

Billy Dane would be top of my wanted list, or at least his boots would be, hopefully he wears the same size as our new multi million pound striker

 

[Jim Chimmerney]

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Dean Hammond and his mystical invisible footballing skills.

 

[Nelson1889]

 

[bibbity bobbity boo]

We need to sign up Jimmy Grimble when he's released by City. We can then flog him on to some shitty twats like Bournemouth and moan about it for the next decade.

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

I'd take that shirt as the new one for the PL.

No chance, that’s a Stoke City shirt.

 

[Whiston Blade]

Jimmy Muir

He'd have the best season of his career only to get killed in January, typical United.

 

[benn5712]

Yes indeed. “Tough of the track”

Wracking (or racking) my brain cell thinking about an African player in a comic. Same era, maybe same comic or Eagle, Hotspur, Tiger. Tall lad with an afro, affected by the cold. Muddy pitches could be a bother as he didn't wear boots. Good player when he settled though. Good in the air not bad as a target man. Bit of a Mick Jones/Deano (the one and only original real deal three players in one. Not Hendo ) Hybrid.
Scored a few an'all.
Link up well with Sharp.

 

[Jim Chimmerney]

Think we may already have this guy.......

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

That keeper who wears war paint on his grid for Striker in the sun.

 

[Billyblade]

 

[Tunstall Fred]

Lynda Block to become owner

Sack Wilder and appoint Gabrielle Benson

Sack Wilder and appoint Gabrielle Benson

Bloody hell, where did you drag that one up from. I had completely forgotten The Manageress.

 

[bibbity bobbity boo]

This guy could do a job I reckon. Cpl Luiz Fernandez from Trinidad.

 

[Blade for Sale]

Brilliantly, I vividly recall on old 1970's football comic annual which found its way into my posession as a nipper and I read it to death. One of the stories was about a centre-half for a low league/low aspiration side who was a fans favourite for his no-nonsense approach to clearing the ball from danger. To quote Pinchy, kick it long, kick it hard, kick it high. Problems arose when a new manager arrived who wanted to instill a passing ethos into his side, and try as he might, this centre-half couldn't improve his dribbling, giving away goal after goal before reverting to type and hoof before being berated, humiliated, benched and eventually ostracised by the new boss.
Amazingly the club received a £1m offer for this centre back from the USA, and naturally snapped their hand off. The twist came at the end when some of his old teammates flew over to watch him play, only to find themselves at an American Football match, and realising that this guy had been brought in as their specialist field goal kicker.

The player's name? Kicker Collins

 

[Blade56]

I think our feckin first 11 will be fictional at this rate. Am I waiting for nothing to happen?

 

[raul]

 

[The Crab]

This guy could do a job I reckon. Cpl Luiz Fernandez from Trinidad.

He needs help to keepy uppy it these days though if the adverts are to be believed...................

 

[RedandWhite]

Thiezzy Hanry, small white man with no pace or goal scoring ability, and a head that doesn't resemble a peanut
