Worst buy in years

He should just play centre back with a piar of crutches and batter the opposition

He brings an interesting mix of frailty and fragility and mixes it with a dashing of being something of an objectionable twat.

More time though for continuing the study of his great love... the booty.

Oh dear....

Looks like we have financed a crock here....

Eight appearances for £200,000. Shocking.

Something fishy here. Constantly injured, yet goes on loan to Carlisle and plays 90 minutes four weeks on the trot.

I'd forgotten he was still on our books.

He did come back from Carlisle injured though

So has he.

Plus 150k a year + bonuses in wages. Even more shocking.

Dont call me Podge.

Assume he's out of contract end of season also

I'm gonna go ahead and doubt he's achieved too many of those bonuses.

Unless he's on an incentive from the physio?

Dreadful signing

Must add I have no idea if he was good, bad or indifferent. He looked a clueless clogger on the occasion I saw him.

But I stand by my statement based the fact he has barely played for us, coupled with the fact that his fee was part of the reason (I believe) Black prematurely ejected last season.

That's not his fault though. And if it hadn't been that it would have been something else. Wray's failure to control Di Canio was the problem there, not Troy AH per se.

Our very own...

Troy Trace

Regardless we went into embargo partly due to buying him. Doesn't have to be his fault to contribute to why I thought he was the worst buy in years.

TBF being injured and then being bombed out isn't (arguably) his fault either..

There must be another reason why he continued to be "bombed out" subsequent to Di Canio's departure. He hasn't been injured for a year has he?

He looked good the two times I saw him in his natural position... injuries happen, so it's unfortunate and a costly situation with no benefits for ourselves, but it's his attitude that annoys me.

Money down the drain week after week.  How long a contract did he have?

Navarro's another one.

What's the latest with Navarro?

Look on the bright side.  At least we repaired some of the damage by mugging the Shitheads for persuading Bristol City to part with £350k for the 'services' of Aden Flint.

That makes me smile on almost a daily basis.

Navarro, Williams and Archibald-Henville can all be released in the summer.

Sweet
Be 3 crocks off the books
All of them showed promise early on, Williams lost all confidence and the other 2 wasters lost the use of their legs.

Navarro has gone in a quest to find Misun.

As for Troy, given his shit attitude towards being here, he'll have plenty of time to go fuck himself over pictures of big boobies.

Firstly i agree in hindsight for the money paid it was a bad signing....thats the clubs fault not the players in this case.

Secondly is it really necessary to slag off a current player because he is injured,just because he likes big tits and he earns big bucks dosn't warrant the abuse he gets to be honest.
He played a couple of dire matches when played out of position...not his fault....seem to remember Luongo having a fucking mare out of position last week....no abuse.

Really fucking gets me people slagging off players for what they earn....and liking tits.
People should take a look at the current crops  debacle the other day and dish some dirt....rather than slag a player who hasn't played because of injury.
Couple of matches he did play in his right position he did ok,nothing great but certainly not terrible.
As for his shit attitude towards being here....anyone can explain that one for me?
He is a player on our books who could well be playing for us at the seasons end...because he earns more than other players dosn't mean he deserves abuse on that basis,looks like a player who picks up injuries easy....thats not his fault either.

Totally did not read that as ejected.

I think that he displayed a bit of attitude in pre-season when he wouldn't pose for individual pictures after the squad photo was taken. I think there have also been some Twitter comments that haven't been that nice and an attack on Sam from the Adver.

Not condoning the abuse, just trying to explain.

I'd hoped that he would be fit this year as I thought he might be a colossus in the air but with silky skills on the floor.

However, I suspect that history will show that ALL of those on big contracts last year will leave the club by the end of this year.

I missed this, but it sounds hilarious.  Anyone got a link or can remember roughly how it went?

I thought you'd died.

IIRC Sam tweeted something regarding Troy's weekly wage and Troy had a pop at Sam for being fat no mark journalist or something along those lines? I don't recall the insult.

He called him a "podgy fucking clown", if I recall.

Feel sorry for the bloke, obviously doesn't like where he is, and nothing wrong with that, gets slated at every turn, had a terrible run of Injuries, I'm sure I'd be pissed off. Hung drawn and quartered on the Internet, hooray the world isn't mad after all..

You'll always get knockers Lee.

I thought DMR was the clown who fucked podgies?

You recall correctly. It's scarred me. Permanently.

Pretty sure i saw you eating a burger the other week, can't have scarred you that much ;)

It was only one burger, wasn't it Tans. Previously it would have been at least three.

Lightweight gayer

Gayer?!

Lightweight?!?

How big was the burger though?

I like the sympathetic view Mr Lyus took. Particularly the mock up back page.

Wouldn't expect anything else from him. That was a fun Sunday.

Whats the goss on Ranger then Sam ?

Yeah, we won't tell anyone. Wouldn't want you being summonsed to SN1 again a la friendly-gate.
