All quiet on the B S front....

[DronnieBlade]

All gone a bit quiet on the Sharp front. Was rumblings of "advanced talks" not so long ago.

Anyone got owt to report ?

I made a right good chilli for dinner tonight. A proper arse burner.

New manager is going to be needed in Southampton in the next 48 hours

Running a Nando's is harder than some people think

It's a tropical paradise here in Holmfirth, it never rains.

I'd be very surprised. The way Clough has reacted to questioning on it from Radio Sheffield seemed to me to sound like he wasn't very keen, or that this wasn't a realistic option. Would have thought O'Grady, or someone with similar attributes, is a more likely fit for what the squad needs.

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

Absolutely no chance. The lad will probably be on a Premier League contract and will have a list of Championship suitors as long as Peter Crouch's arm.

Any suggestions that a deal is close are surely total BS!

 

[Blade58]

Not disagreeing with the above posts. Just adding the rumour

I just look forward to the days when Billy Sharp isn't rumoured to be coming back. Another 3 or 4 seasons should do it.

Similar to Michael Brown, the rumours will start to dry up when they are spotted using a zimmer frame.

I think you'll get your wish sooner than later.

Got me a feeling that this time he will be coming back. I was a big critic of Billy in his last stint, but I think this time we'll see him score a hatful.

I also think we'll see a lot more 4-4-2 (or variations of it) in the upcoming season and so a big and little un combination is tailor made for Billy.

If Brayford doesn't sign this summer, then he will be the next player constantly rumoured to be coming to the lane

 

[raul]

Surely we are only a couple of years away from regular rumoured sightings of an alloy-ed up super car with the reg P1 JAG5 in the car park more often than Foxy?

 

[wizadry]

Reading and Bradford are the favourites to land him now,don't want him anyway personally,so hopefully one of these clubs will sign him.

We tried that with Darius Henderson. Didn't work.

Sharp fact: he scored on his last appearances for United in both the league cup (Port Vale) and the FA Cup (Hull), but failed to score in his last 15 league games for us...

On a similar pointless facts issue, but this time more positive: Brian Deane scored on his debut for us in D3, D2, D1, the PL, the FA Cup and the League Cup:

D3: 27/8/88 Reading A
LC 30/8/88 Hartlepool A
FAC 19/11/88 Mansfield A
D2 19/8/89 WBA A
D1 25/8/90 Liverpool H
PL 15/8/92 Man Utd H

So Brian Deane has had 6 debuts for us then Dazzler

Most clubs have tried most things with Henderson over the last 6 or so years and they all "didn't work" !!

Go figure.!

Never understood this big un little un theory. Not saying it can't work but is by no means a formula that I would rely on.

Agreed, I'd rather we just went for "good un, good un" looking at ability rather than size.

As a bullshitter, you're more front-wheel drive than 4x4!
