...was supposed to be signing for us or someone else at the begining of this week?

and nicho and pook!

hmmm whats the hold up!

i thought Nico and Pook had until last friday to sign?

why don't our board/PS stick by there guns and tell them to sign or fook off.

there not exactly our strongest players so doubt we'll miss them.
especially Pook

I think negotiations only began on Monday, the adver bigged it up as d-day but it seems neither party has quite the urgency.

Pook and Nicho were going in Thursday of last week i thought!  :?

Fuck em all is what I say  :D

That is what was said, then it was claimed they were going back in to see Smarmy Starnes on Monday and finalise and sign their new contracts!!  Smarmy is now on holiday (allegedly!) so that may be the hold-up, unless they are going to allow dear old Sandy to negotiate (what VAT!!!).  The guy from Swansea is on honeymoon apparently so I guess nothing will happen there until he is back.  He has two other offers to consider if he has nothing better to do!!

maybe everything is on hold until we find out what happens on saturday!

   What's happening on Saturday?

im getting pissed

Why is the chief exec going on holiday in the week the CVA is due and when we allegedly have 2 groups interested in taking the club over.

Enjoy Butlins

as he's the only one that speak anything near sense, they probably sent him away on holiday to avoid sensible media relations and valuable information from filtering through to the fans.

I see the weathermen are saying there's going to be 50mm of rain over some parts of the country on Saturday. I hear they're predicting a whole shower of shit over SN1.

According to WDP, further talks to be held today.

He would appear to be "out of the loop" when any important decision is going to be made!!

Both players contracts run out on Saturday and both want to sign.

As soon as the paperwork is done they will sign

All players everwhere that are out of contract run out on Sat so as of July 1 the employment rate will be increasing....lazy bastards get a job  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Yep, I'm fairly happy with that signing, always thought he was good at what he does.

meh.

I thought he was taller than 5'11"? Can't see him getting 20 for us, but a good addition nonetheless

neither can i but if he plays as well against other teams as he has done against us in the past i'll be more than happy.

good signing

shame we have to re sign pook :roll:

I've not been a fan of Akinfenwa's - but, he coming to Town so therefore I will welcome him and hope he does the business with us.

However, he's only signing for a year... If he does have a cracking season are we going to be able to keep him!?!

i would guess the 1 year deal is to protect ourselves because of his broken leg suffered last season.

if he plays x amount of games i guess his contract will extend automatically?!

or something like that

Or Sturrock knows of better strikers who will be available on a free next summer...

good news .. I rate Bayo ... and with the resigning of Pook things look positive on the playing side  :wink:

hmmmmmmmmmm. I think he's shite frankly.  Lower league Heskey.

Good job hes after another striker then :soapy tit wank:

does he have a crystal ball? i'm starting to like him more.

I dont know anything about him but I cant see him being as good as Fola 8)  :king:

No, well that is to say I don't think so, but he's gone out and issued 2 and 3 year contracts elsewhere, just makes me wonder if he has some prior knowledge from elsewhere regarding strikers contracts.

Good signing alot of pace and power we have a good blend of strikers with Corr, him and Sturrock all having very different qualities.  Add a prolific striker as well and we will be in good shape for next year.

I'm not convinced he's good enough to score the goals we need to be honest. Of course, I will give him a chance to prove me wrong.

Would be nice to see a goalscorer come in aswell though

Just the easy role to fill then  :wink:

Sounds like the big man will be awkward and adds something to or attack.  My Dad really liked hime for Torquay a few years back, and I usually trust his judgement so I'm modestly happy with him.  If Sturrock thinks he's good enough then thats good for me - and not a ex-Sturrock player for a change.

Tall bloke in Corr, Battering ram in Akinfenwa - sturrock likes to get balls into the box so could prove a good partnership, and then as everyone has mentioned, jst the proven scorer to come, job done - promotion thankyou very much, see you in the Championship. :soapy tit wank:

Will not be fit for start of the season:

http://www.swindontownfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/SturrocksUpdate/0,,10341~1064436,00.html

So 2 strikers signed up, both not fit to start.

Well no, but Sturrock Jnr is bound to sign, we have Roberts and Peacock who can both fill in, we still have Caton and I presume Sturrock is still looking for a goalscorer.

not time to press the panic button yet KT  :D

Panic button?  I've no doubt Sturrock will find a fit and able striker for the start of the season.

I'm more worried that I won't get to see much of them if they're all out at the start and I bugger back off to France before we get going. :|

Haha, when are you off? I'm only going to be around for August and September and will be working most Saturdays  :(

still think we need another winger or 4.... :|

Two will be plenty  :D

Who's that running through your defence, it's Akinfenwa, Akinfen-wa!

No prizes for guessing the tune to that one.

hmmmm or a new song for ROberts based on that scissor sisters song

DON'T FEEL LIKE MOVING, MOVING,....

Chasing Cars converted cleverly to chasing shadows for when we fancy a bit of Pook bashing? Someone else can do the lyrics for that one, can't be arsed.

:yawn:

du du du Bayo Akin-fen-wa!

tune of lets all do the conga...

Yep-and he's 16 stone,that cant be right

haha i'm the same height as him and only 2 stone heavier. get in!

His weight and height are spot on - the lads a f@cking tank? Anyone recall the damage him and Constantine did to us at Plainmoor a couple of years back? His four solo runs - from the halfway line - through our entire team and the narrow misses that followed?! If he's brushed-up on his finishing, this is one hell of a signing.  8)

to be honest i remain unconvinced by his signing, never really rated him tbh. however everything is going to be ok! and he'll probably turn out to be ace just to piss on my bonfire

Think he will be a good signing. He was a bundle of trouble at Torquay and Swansea and built like a brick s--thouse.





'When I was going to get my ears pierced my dad told me - son only Poofs and Pirates have that done, and I can't see a bloody ship in the drive'

he was in the apartment last night looking proper mean  :x

'can I have 4 of your cheapest beers please'

Qulaity story declan

Don't confuse muscle with fat though James.  :mrgreen:

that will be £33.60  :|

I might be wrong, but didn't he also score for them in a 3-3 at the county ground the same season ? looked good then too

we were 3-1 up at one point........and Jerel Ifil picked the ball up on the pitch :|

looks like Bayo may not sign reading the adver he refused to talk about the test results and said a statement will be out today.

ent you gone to ibiza yet?

This evening, be patient!  :wink:

Or maybe he's just been told not to talk about it yet?  :?
