There seem to be about 95 David Prutton threads at the moment but I didn't want this to get lost. Check out DP's interview on STFC Player if you've not done so already. I thoroughly recommend it, the bloke is absolute class.

That is all.

Sorry for yet another David Prutton thread.

I really am ::)

what does he say?

Who?

Welcome to STFC David! Judging by your interview you seem to be quite a character and i think
a lot of the fans will take to you.

Like him already.

That was great but there was a bit more humour in the World interview..such as referring to Col U's pitch as a bog and when asked about us having a combative midfield this season with him and Dougie he said, "That means we're a bit dirty doesn't it?.....yeah......but we can play a bit as well, there's no use going out there if you're just going to fanny around!" Not word for word but you get the jist of it 8)

Ah! Assumed it'd be the same interview on both.

He's right on both counts there. I think he'll fit into the side with ease; also sounds like he's looking forward to having the ball coming through the midfield for once, rather than looking upwards as it flies over his head every time Colewe get the ball.

Saw a goal on Points West earlier that he scored for Col U. Nice finish it was. Hopefully we'll see more of that from him this coming season. Welcome aboard Prutts.

Great, two defensively minded center mids. Won't get 3 goals between them next season grumble grumble moan moan

I'm sure you're not entirely serious, but Prutts can play the advanced role if needed.

Wilson's talking about him getting assists and a few goals, so hopefully that'll be the case. How many did Ferry score? 2 wasn't it?

Just have to replace Wards 10. The others in midfield probably didn't manage 5 between them all season.

Towards the back end of last season Ferry was getting forward a lot more than he was at times earlier on in the season. Think we'll see Prutts play a similar role to that.

Agree Rich.

I love how we're already calling him 'Prutts' as though he's been here for years.

Didn't he push over a lino when he went to Southampton and get a three month ban or something? Hero.

Yeah, in many ways it ruined him. I've looked for the footage but couldn't find it.

He got sent off after a tackle on Pires and went to confront the linesman. The ref got in his way and he tried moving him out the way by nudging him a couple of times.

Got blown out of proportion by all accounts and I think most people agreed his 10 match ban was harsh.

Just checked, it was Alan Wiley. I'm sticking with hero.

I refer you to  37s to 1m11s, the rest is all not relevant.

'David Prutton, Swamp Creature'  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Prutton looks like that Marshall from Ipswich - ggggggyyyyyyyyyypppppppppppppppppppppooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Great interview.... and I quote -

Interviewer : whats danny wilson said to you to convince you to come down here?
Prutton : we'll give you lots of money, make you the captain, take all the penalties, free house, free car....

(much giggling all round)

Ferry's first interview was one of my favourites. I'm glad Prutton's enough of a clown to replace Ferry's humour as well.

If we have ward back i think we will one of the or the strongest midfield in the league! we just need some goals from em now.

I fucking will do and always have loved prutton, signing of the summer from any team in any division.

I think were being waaaaay to positive over this signing, I'm not really used to all this positivity. And for that reason I'm going to say that I'm gutted we've signed prutton, he's shit!

He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy.
