negotiations for a contract here...

yep, i think he could do a decent job for us. got a decent foot on him, worth a pop

Probably an ideal replacement for cureton!

i think he'll be a decent signing

Ritson wil be made up.....should be a limitless source of motoring cliches.

very true  :shock:

i thought wise would have probs given him a year...lets hope he does well.

And the editor (if you can call him that, what with his problem with spelling) of the website. I see the car one has already been used up today ... how long before they start using songs from the band?

Surely he will be back up for the cock and roberts though?

I was impressed with his natural finishing ability .. unlucky on Sunday with that shot

He signed for a year this evening.... :beers:

 At the carwash

  Come summer the work gets kind a hard
This ain't no place to be if ya planned on being a star.
Let me tell you it's always cool
And the boss don't mind sometimes if ya act a fool

 or maybe Wanborough

Have Swindon actually completed the signing of Brownlie or is it still at the negotiation phase?

Done deal with the option of a 2nd year...

Official site states it has not completed - noted, they are slow in updating.

What about Phil Smith? Did he agree terms in the end?

Signed last night....(as stated in my previous post!).

good signing

I'm not making a judgement yet.  Looked useful in the friendlies, but thats not the test of a good player.  This is not a negative post/comment, just not getting too excited too soon.  Made that mistake too many times before.  Especially with Cureton and Thorpe..

won't believe it 'til i see it on the official site complete with squad number, scarf and all that jazz.

not because i don't believe or distrust either of you, i just don't want to jinx it 8)

And you no longer have the luck of the Irish after your secret was revealed

i'm more irish than you

On that basis, I apologise. I'll give you an Irish passport and a car bomb because you are ever so clearly Irish.

i'm not northern irish!

The bomb is to blow yourself up  :wink:

I'll substitute it for potatoes

An Irish Car Bomb is a cocktail anyway

Do you beleive me now??

It's not that we don't believe you but you said he signed 2 nights ago and the official site says he'll sign today!

I'll reserve judgment too. I think that it's only right to be suspicious of an Aussie playing 'soccer'.

Then again, maybe he chose 'soccer' to avoid the attentions of chaps like John Hopoate...

i said i believed you, i just didn't want to jinx it 8)

good signing, really do think he's gonna do well.

Im getting Royce da 5'9" on a shirt this season.  8)

I wonder what wise has planned for him. Two up front with him playing in the hole? Or drop the cock or roberts, or just start him on the bench?

I suspect he will start on the bench, a good alternative option.  I think we weill end up starting 4-4-2, something along the lines of:

Brezhovan (sp.)

Smith
Ifil
Williams
Vincent

Shakes
Weston
Pook
Monkhouse

Roberts
Peacock

Subs:
Nicholas
Brown
Brownlie
Jutziewich (sp.)
P. Smith (GK)

Thats assuming Whalley and Gurney aren't fit for new season, and this big signing doesn't materialise.

Drop Pook, make Brownlie an attacking Midfielder behind the frontmen

Brezhovan (sp.)

Smith
Ifil
Williams
Vincent

Shakes
Weston
Monkhouse

Brownlie

Roberts
Peacock

Subs:
Nicholas
Brown
Pook
Jutziewich (sp.)
P. Smith (GK)

:nod:

No Weston is a playmaker he's got to be playing with a player that does all the dirty work for him, i like the idea of brownlie further forward but not at the expense of Weston...trust me  8)

ok, ince in for weston

I think Doore has the likely starting lineup spot on, assuming A.N. Other or Wise himself doesn't play.

My opinion. I think Weston has looked superb, but I worry about him an Pook in the middle together!



Sheilas, wogs and poofters.....

Exactly... but I think that it is only right to put that in quotes, and give Johnny Warren the credit.
