if stephen ireland banged in 20 goals this season for us, none of the top 4 would still buy him

Is he off to Liverpool then? :winkold:

The mighty Holte End Heroes are back.

The hold up, as with previous players we have signed from Man Citeh, is Given agreeing his loyalty bonus for not asking for the transfer.

Etuhu was poor when he played for Norwich - and got binned.

Lazy and full of himself.

This is garbage - hopefully.

Stay - and our fans, like those of our rivlas, will have to accept we will never win the league whilst money rules and we do not have a mega-rich owner.

I am not suggesting Randy should leave either, just fans have realistic expectations rather than harp on about winning the league and European Cup thirty years ago. A fine achievement to remember and celebrate nevertheless.

Heskey should be either shot or sold. Useless carthorse who is ruining our side.

He is no use unless you have two goal scoring midfielders. Yes, he does well for England but we hardly have Lampard and Gerrard banging in the goals from midfield.

Other - Hangeland and Upson please.

This country is already far too soft.

They should leave them in jail IHMO.

GB left for the money. Pure and simple greed.

Very good player but he was past it when he left.

When the fixture was announced, it said the team would depend on progress in the Peace Cup.

The first team, reserves and youth team all played in that competition and have been given off until Thursday.

I was a little surprised that Gabby, Milner and Gardener did not play in it though.

I would imagine it depends on whether we win tonight and get into the Peace Cup final on Sunday.

Three stands. You can only afford three stands.

What is the best way to get tickets fo this I cannot see anything on the OS ?

You have to get them direct from Peterborough.

Glenn and I will be there. No one else from our area is coming, cos they are either working, holidaying or depressed.

General,

Thanks for the info on friendlies. Apparently, P'boro have said that they have only sold less than 1,500 tickets for our game so far. Have got my ticket though.

As for the Noses ticket prices, their site says this about forthcoming ticket prices:

Sty Dwellers Ticket Prices

We will be a grade A game no doubt, hence the prices for that match are astronomical.

General,

Glad to hear that you are making a good recovery General.

Are you able to explain how friendly prices are determined? I know that P'boro fans are up in arms at paying £15 (standing) and £20 seating for our forthcoming friendly.

Do we get a say in ticket prices for friendlies?

Stephen

I do not finish work until 5pm and it is about a 100 mile trip down to Colchester from my workplace.

Did notice the bus tokens on the ticket. Will look into it.

Parking is not good around the new ground according to their website.

Got my ticket through the post last week.

Harry from Rafa, just.

Yes, absolutely. Unquestionably. Who got us into fourth by February? Okay, we have had a three month slump in three years. And have we improved over his term. Yes.

Hitz is another who drifted in and out of games. And Arsenal were always going to come good once their players returned. Their team is light years ahead of ours, as are the other three at the top of the league. It is a shame that a quite a few Villa fans got carried away of the Champions League pipedream. It was never going to happen once Arsenal clicked into gear.

But can you compare them? Neither Shorey nor Laursen have not played over half the games this season.

If you want a comparison:

Friedel vs Carson - Friedel by a mile

L Young vs Mellberg - Young, just, cos Melly is out of position (but would have him like a shot at centre-half alongside Laursen)

Laursen vs Laursen - Best centre-half since God

Davies vs Davies - Close, but would kick both out and include Melly

Bouma vs Shorey - Bouma all the time, even with one ankle.

Shearer's going down.

Out of those, Liverpool.

However, don't like the glory hunting Man U fans and also Harry Redknapp.

Petrov, Luke Young then Laursen (who might have come second but for the injury).
