is leaving STFC in January. Shame we're going to lose another quality player who, with better players around him, would be pure fucking class in this division.

Is he ,how come?

Hes not that good anyway really is he.

He's old, slow, and not very good.

happy retirement lil.

Been just as good as easton and timlin in the middle

When Nalis signed I was hoping be an ace midfield leader type, who although probably a bit off the pace would organise and let other parts of his game shine through. A player with the experience to help others around him get the best from their games, not the other way around.

Remember how ace Ian Woan was in his short playing career at town? Talked to players around him, had a footballing intelligence that meant even though he was getting on a bit he picked out positioning so he'd still have a foot or two advantage on more pacey midfielders, and passing ability that still gives me a stiffy when I think about it.

Bit of a difference really.

Where did you get this bit of info from?

Disagree. He's one of the best play-makers we've got. He might not be that quick anymore, if he ever was, but his vision and ability to see moves that are at least two places ahead would put his name on my team sheet every week.

Someone I know knows his wife's hairdresser. WAG Salon gossip :D

Oh, the old "My friend's got this problem" routine. Ha - delta's really a hairdresser, probably called Maurice or Pierre. No wonder you swear so much on here, not like you can say "Been anywhere nice for your cunting holidays" when you're doing Mrs Miggins rinse and perm, is it?

Nice try, but you're not getting a fucking bite, Pauld. Get back to licking Byrne's bottom, you cunt ;)

Don't think Nalis leaving would represent any great loss.

nalis has been a bit of a dissapointment if im honest. Hereford in the on the friday night was probably the one game where he really stood out. You can see he was a good player, but he hasn't got it anymore. its a shame

Nooo, luvvy, it's not too short, brings out your cheekbones, really it does. Having your roots done as well dear?

Come on delta, you in charge of collars or cuffs?

Maybe we should have a TEF rule, where if you say you know something is definitely going to happen but don't back up your "sauce", and then it doesn't happen, you get some sort of punishment. Like a temporary ban, or an anal violation from a team of sweaty TEFers.

Probably not really necessary, we thankfully get fairly few "This is going to happen, trust me" threads. I like the proper "I heard in the pub / from a mate" rumours thereads, they're fun because and you always know to take them with a pinch of salt, and you wouldn't want to put people off speculating on the evidence available, "I think Pearce/Calderwood/Ward fits what Fitton has said the best" sort of thing. I suppose the most annoying ones are where people suddenly proclaim they're opinion as fact and then go on to moan about it. You know "Byrne is going to be appointed manager.... What is Fitton doing? He's shit." style stuff.

Not that I'm saying this thread is particularly bad. Got no reason to disbelieve you on this one delta. It's not a particularly big subject so I can't see why you'd be making it up. I was thinking more about management claims and stuff, just this reminded me of it a bit. A bit of a train of thought post really. Always looking for an excuse to ban people.

And your point is?

Nice re-direct fb!

 :D

I'm not very good at bullet points.

• Threads Like this Annoy me a bit
• ...although actually this one isn't that annoying
• Anybody can make an unsubstantiated claim that they know something.
• Maybe some sort sort of deterrent to people bullshitting would be good.
• But then rumour threads and speculation are fun and people shouldn't be put off from that
• I always used to say it was silly to have rules and stuff...
• ...But now I've turned into a big authoritarian forum facist
• mwahahahaha
• Discuss?

Lickass

I wish. Nothing like a bit of Rusty Trombone.

The downside (or should that be the backside?) is that such a rule could cause a proliferation of "this is going to happen, thrust me" threads from certain members.

Present company excluded, of course.

Surely it falls under the 80% bollocks rule ?

Nalis is fucking shit. The new Gareth Whalley. At least he's not on a 3 year deal.

That is all.

Normally yes, but as herthab ("who ate all the bollocks?") has shorted the testicular market futures somewhat there may well be insufficient gonads available to form a quorum at any upcoming TEF Ruling & Adjudication Committee.

The few times I have seen Nalis he has been utter garbage. However I haven't seen him that often so maybe not the best judge.

He drives a smart car, says it all.

Its not even a new one!

Trust your judgements.  He is garabage

He is like Miglioranzi but without the flair, talent, ability, pace and skill

And he's got a girly name

Is Nalis particularly girly?

No, but Lilian is.

Try Lilian

and get Stefani free

That doesn't disprove my point.

We just don't have the players around him, if we had a decent CM who would look to break then he might be an asset but as we only have CMs that look to sit in he's not given any other option but to go sideways really.

I think in a better team he'd be able to show off a bit more and introduce a bit of swagger to the play but as we are I really don't think he can fit in.

Also, why not shoot once in a while?

Personally just think he is too old now, way off the pace and sluggish.
