Many thanks for the validation.

No problems, but as I said to the conversation at large, 'why is Stephens deemed a 'goal scorer'?

My poor memory suggests he's even more specific than '2 goals a season Stephens'.
Doesn't DS only score goals in the North West of England or below sea-level bicycle kicks?

That's pretty niche, even for an Albion striker. :lolol:

With all the silly fees being banded about it is good to see that The Standard are reporting that Chelsea are trying to rush through a £15m deal for Ross Barkley.to beat Tottenham to his signature.

Because he's out of contract in 6 months, Everton don't want him, and he's been injured for a year.

You'll notice Sanchez & Ozil (out of contract in 6 months but fit and wanted by Arsenal) won't be going for peanuts - it'll be £40m+ or a free in the summer.

Have to confess I really didn’t expect us to still be scratching around looking to sign a striker 9 months after we reached the Premier League :shrug:

It’s almost Gillingham and Withdeanish at a higher level. even now everyone has more money to spend than us :lolol:

Although there is something faintly reassuring by a certain poster still insisting on yet another 'big lump up front'.

I love how, on here, Stephens' goal scoring prowess gets talked up.

Anyone not knowing would never guess he's scored 13 goal in 140 appearances.

Just had a look on whoscored.com to see what Proppers record was like before we signed him, 32 in 150. So he was averaging about 1 in 5 in Holland, 0 in 22 in England.

They also have a bit on his perceived strengths and weaknesses, they put passing and tackling as his weaknesses. Ouch!

£15M is one hell of a bargain! Wish we could have signed him for that (I know, his wages are probably more than our back five put together - if not more - and anyway, he wouldn't have come to us anyway as he's top 6 bound).

Remember him playing for Sheff Wednesday against us and he had a shocker and was pulled off early

It seems like there's zero chance of any targets, old or new, playing today. :down:

There's some action in Italy and 4 games in Spain, nothing doing in Portugal, the rest of Europe, that covers Winstano's summer inter-railing holiday, is on lockdown.
Plus of course the world's biggest and oldest cup competition.

The nearest I get is my selections from the Summer, Destro and Simon Green, who'll probably playing for Bologna in a couple of hours.
Simon Green is a hell of a player and far too good for us, anyway.



Security Systems are at home to Galaxy in the Botswana Premier League, should be a good game.
