Title: Oh the irony... Post by: McLovin on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:26:23 Brian 'Ginsters' Howard playing at the Fitness First Stadium...
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:31:55 haha ironic YES but is it true? i actually heard that bournemouth were interested in him
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: JTomlinson on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:35:17 How are their finances, arent they in need of trimming their wage bill too?
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: McLovin on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:39:35 They just sold O'Connor and the boy Elliott, so they need a left sided player. Thats what the Adver says anyway.
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Kinky Tom on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:41:35 He wont like playing on the left though, he is after all one of the greatest central midfield players this side of Frank Lampard.
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: JTomlinson on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:42:08 Ah ha...
Well I am sure they will also be offering discount 'Fitness First' passes :wink: Title: Oh the irony... Post by: DiV on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:43:23 talented yes
winger yes central midfielder no Why cant King see that? Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Marie on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:44:17 They sold O Connor and Elliot but they went on a free, so they cant be offering him much more than us, other than the fact that it might be a longer contract? To be fair Fitness First is a nice ground and very close to where he lives.
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:44:18 coz hes a prick! i can see us losing both smith and howard at this rate
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: JTomlinson on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:46:21 Next season... :cry:
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Marie on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:50:42 I think we worked out from the whole squad that started last year there will be 5 remaining.

Marie you must be blind! they have three stands and they are all ugly and there is a tiny little shitty section for away fans and it really is a small shitty ground! Title: Oh the irony...

Marie you must be blind! they have three stands and they are all ugly and there is a tiny little shitty section for away fans and it really is a small shitty ground! Fair point they have three stands but its a new area, you can see its a new stadium, with extra space to expand. I have a feeling that bournemouth fans would say the same about our away section.. okay, my opinion but i happened to like the ground. Wasn't half as bad as other places ive been! Title: Oh the irony... Post by: JTomlinson on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 10:59:21 I am a massive football fan in general, and I do go and watch STFC games as and when I get chance.
Last season I saw: v Bristol City (LDV) v Sheffield Wednesday (League) v Huddersfield (League) v Port Vale (League) Plus one other, which escapes me at the moment. Problem is, Council meetings etc often clash. My old lodger was also a season ticket holder so the house was covered in STFC stuff. Title: Oh the irony...

Wasn't half as bad as other places ive been! you could do a lot worse though! so i do agree with you in some quarters. just look at colchester and cheltenham! our away section holds 3000 though whereas theirs is 1800 i think which we easily filled last season and would have done this season if we hadnt have been doing so shit at the time Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Marie on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 11:16:15 Okay agree, but all in all the grounds tidy, clean, looks modern and that gives it a good atsmosphere to begin with if that makes sense? You remember certain grounds in different ways and i always remember this one as being a good ground (even with three sides, which always kind of lets it down)
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 11:17:29 well i think it is better than a certain other ground with three sides by a long shot! i dont think anyone would disagree with me there
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 11:33:32 Howard doesn't like playing on the left, not sure if Bournemouth have realised this yet.
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Marie on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 11:49:45 They will soon enough when he's crap for them there.

I dont like working 9-5 monday to friday....but I still do!!!!! Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 11:55:57 Yeah but Howard is notoriously arrogant, every time he's been played on the wing since he first played in the centre, he always says "Everyone knows I prefer playing in the centre as I get more involved but...."
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 11:57:50 he doesnt care. hes getting more money thats all that matters to the fat twat!

Title: Oh the irony... Post by: JTomlinson on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 13:53:56 Great player on my Football Manager 2005 team, but even on that he wants out...
No damn loyalty... Title: Oh the irony... Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 13:57:13 I sold him for £1.5m on FM2005 in the first season, sold Duke for £900k as well 8)
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: JTomlinson on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 14:09:33 Howard appears to have poor ratings, but if you play him wide, give him plenty of the ball he notches up an average of 8.5, consistantly for several seasons, but then wants out.
Duke, now that was good business. I think I had to pay him off... I got quite a lot for Fallon though. Title: Oh the irony... Post by: blinkpip on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 16:27:12 Brain Howard is my fav player. I got his name on my shirt and signed. I am not happy. I am piss off about it. :x
Title: Oh the irony... Post by: red macca on Wednesday, May 18, 2005, 17:27:27 one thing i noticed was firstly he has said bourmouthe only want a chat and we know fat boy reads more into things he thought he was being offered a contract last week, and secondly which i thought was damn rude was when he says i will ring the gaffer later and tell what i want to do ,well i got a sneaky feeling he knows after reading it and im not to sure he is botherd coz you wasnt offered a contract fatty
