Is Hanlan being primed for a big money move to championship ? Our record of selling our leading goals order has been well established since the Marcus Stewart days.

Can't see Hanlan being able to cut it yet in the Championship, sure he's got bag's of protential but he is nowhere near the finished item. In today's Covid blighted market to pay top dollar for a bench warmer makes no sense to club or player.

To cut to the chase Sam Nicholls is the Gas Subbetto player of the year thus far. Hopefully when football gets back to real size he will continue to improve by working on his timing as hes got massive Potential he reminds me a little of George Best a genus winger whose massey runs changed many a game. I know iam 'barking' , the duck Sussed me out a while ago - I blame Leffe ( the drink of God''s ) for stretching my mind and girth! UTG Original recipe absinthe. There are a couple of polish shops that have it or can order it in. Not cheap but that wormwood can be dangerous if it’s not been made well.

Undeniably truthful but we always seemed to have other players who were lined up, to take their place. We had good goalkeepers and good strikers. The nearly season was the pivotal point, as I saw it. Sold Robert’s for close to 2 million but Cureton for 250k, in a sale to reading and with lots of rumours doing the rounds. I met Ollie, in a pet shop in Longwell green and I asked the question most wanted to and it was vehemently denied, by Ollie. He did say that Cureton wanted to play at an higher level and that the two did not see eye to eye. I always wondered why we got so little for curo ? I was sure he had to be worth at least a million, proven and deadly yet many gas called him lazy. I remember reading fandom enjoying baiting us in how little they paid and how many he was scoring, for them.

I remember reading fandom enjoying baiting us in how little they paid and how many he was scoring, for them. I remember it slightly differently. Ie. That we didn't actually people lined up and instead used to sell players in pairs. When we sold Hayles, we'd also sold Beadle. When we sold Roberts we sold Cureton. I also remember us selling Taylor and Stewart although this is not really true. My frustration as a kid was always that we let 2 go rather than sell 1 keep 1.

Every player has his price that's what the much travelled Bobby Gould used to say to me ...when he came back when Wimbledon manager to sign John Scales.
Also the young Talented Mr Mabbutt was another ... Tottenham for £105,000 and signed for Spurs for less wages than at Rovers. Within 7 months he made his full England debut and as they say the rest is history.
Don't forget Steve Perryman has been scouting from day one of Tisdale accepting the job. Respect his record against Tommy Widdrington hence Stockley wanted by PT again.
