Popular Post Infinte_Pest Posted July 1, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2017 Have we ever actually announced a signing with a kit launch before? I'm pretty sure we have the exact same speculation and the same result every kit launch. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super-Villan Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I'm not sensitive, I just have certain standards. Other posters have different standards (i.e. Savage). Fine. But to try and paint others as snowflakes just because they have a problem with a racist, cheating, arrogant cockend joining us...pft. You're welcome to the vile man. Some things are more important than football. Not many things, but for me this is one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure, he's done some pretty unpleasant things in his life and yes, to some that's enough to not want him anywhere near the club. I'd care a whole lot more about his behaviour, if he was running the country, but he's not, he's just kicking a pigs bladder about and in that context, a bit of nastiness could be quite helpful to a team in need of some grit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a m ole Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 From a football perspective, very good signing. Shouldn't be captain, unless deputising in the absence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respect your view and he has done some unsavoury things in his personal life but you think he's the only footballer to cheat on his wife with a teammates missus? I imagine it happens a fair bit!

Popular Post Xela Posted July 1, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2017 As a player and a leader I think he will be immense. A born winner. We haven;t had many of those in the last few years! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy will be here for a year, maybe two? I think it would be a mistake, he can have influence without having the armband. Our captain should be someone settled at the club and planning, at least for now, to be around for the long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 If he's the leader he's supposed to be then he wont need to be captain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashingqwerty Posted July 1, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted July 1, 2017 There is a difference between on pitch captain and club captain so he could be the on the pitch captain without being team/club captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Who cares what he does off the pitch. We have had far too many nice chaps in the past.. where did that get us? I just want players who fight for the shirt and win us some football matches. Who they shag or what they do is not my business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was cleared in court of the racism allegation and as for being a cheat, isn't every player a cheat of some kind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Anyway I just wish we'd announce the deal and be done with it. It's seriously dragging on now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
