I also think I remember reading somewhere that his missus also said he wore his goalkeeping gloves to watch Match Of The Day....Ha ha...very true.
Budgie was an unbelievable character, non stop in game and out of game talking.
I remember his pre game warm ups walking on his hands and doing chin ups on the cross bar.
He was also famous for doing gymnastics whilst making a save.
He had this skill of making easy-ish saves look spectacular with his mid air gymnastic twist/ turns and body rolls.
Bert read his book. When he was playing for Hibs he still lived in Newcastle so he went on the train to Edinburgh. He used to catch a taxi from the station to get to training on time but very often there weren't any taxis so he had a bright idea. He bought a moped and kept it and the helmet chained up at the station.I also think I remember reading somewhere that his missus also said he wore his goalkeeping gloves to watch Match Of The Day....
The real mesters got pics at the same time.....I’m in touch with him. PM me your mums number so I can pass it on.
He is average, he's not a Premier League player or an international
Good player at Championship level = Average
If you want to measure him against everybody on the planet who once kicked a football for the dog and fuck well then he's a magnificent player
We've had this discussion before, let it go, you sound like a fucking woman
It’s a very good achievement and I love Billy for what he has done for United, but it sounds like the bullshit Sky come up with when talking about records. It’s always Premier League record this and Premier League record that.
Football didn’t start in 1992 and neither did it start in 2000!
HAHAHAHAHAHA! I nearly choked to death on a strawberry cream Quality Street laughing at that!!!Bert read his book. When he was playing for Hibs he still lived in Newcastle so he went on the train to Edinburgh. He used to catch a taxi from the station to get to training on time but very often there weren't any taxis so he had a bright idea. He bought a moped and kept it and the helmet chained up at the station.
All went well until one day when the train was late so he shot out of the station, stuck on his helmet and rode off..... and then he realised that somebody, probably a Hearts fan, had had a shit in the helmet.
He said that as he was late and there's was nothing he could do he had to carry on to the training ground with the turd stuck on his head...HAHAHAHAHAHA! I nearly choked to death on a strawberry cream Quality Street laughing at that!!!
That'd be an undignified obituary....
I'm not sure what this says about this forum and its users, whether it's good or bad, but I find it fascinating how a thread that starts with hope for a football loanee extending his stay ends up with a bloke riding a bike with a turd stuck on his head.

Yes, I have to apologise for getting that thread closed by criticising the Angel of The North. I didn't realise Foxy was so sensitive about modern art.Pah. There was a thread the other day with a poster wanting to fight racists and xenophobes over Brexit.
Only on the internet though.........

He’s a bit mental, he’s not totally insane. No one in their right mind turns down a champions league side.It’s probably only paper talk and no real substance.
Doesn’t really effect us though, unless we gain promotion.
Then the decision might be if Hendo’s agent says he can get 80K elsewhere
Do we try to match it or not bother, instead go for a top Championship manager for less than half salary.
Surely the Stoke keeper is better than Hendo and should end up being much cheaper if those clubs get involved in an auction.
Still think Hendo would accept less money if it meant being the 1st choice at SU in the PL compared to getting massive wages whilst sat on the bench at Spurs, Bayern or Juve.
I think a PL club can only loan two players from other PL clubs. Warnock was moaning about it a few weeks ago.Bayern and a few other clubs are realising that there’s an awful lot of good, young English kids languishing in the reserves/u23s of the big clubs. They’re not afraid to buy/borrow them and give em a start.
Perhaps that might be a way forward for us, if we went up.
Simon Moore,Assuming they'll let him go and assuming he would sign (even if we are still in the Championship), the question of whether we would be prepared to splash out oodles of cash on him has to depend on what the alternatives are.

Probably thisI think if Man Utd want to keep hold of him long term then there’s a good chance he’ll return to us on loan next season, only if we’re in the premiership though.
One of the promoted teams will take him if not.
I think we're all agreed that he won't stay with us if we don't go up. This leaves us with promotion to the Premiership which means United will need to be paying him £50k pw to stay, plus a fee of about £15m. The chances of United doling this out for a GK are zero.
