Are we talking UK years or African years?

With respect bruv, I doubt there is a single member on here that doesn't already know that.

Do we have to have these kind of posts EVERY ****ing time some one shares something off twitter? This is what's clogging up the thread..... :?

I'll try to show How easy it is to get those twatters started. If you read about an ex Boltonplayer in the next few hours it's made up by me. The **** the print is no more true than me just making stuff up.

I didn't know it was these types of posts clogging up the thread due to the fact I hardly read it any more due to the amount of rubbish that was being posted... :thdn:

I did find this:-

itasportpress.it

According to Russian rumours, Lokomotiv Moscow are keen on Tottenham 29 year old attacking midfielder Rafael Van der Vaart.
But, nothing about West Ham.

I was nearly Ireland's best player at the Euros, they didnt exactly shine. I like Doyle though, not glamorous but works hard, fast and can make himself the odd chance.

And Van Der Vaart? Sure he didnt mean Van Der Voort was coming to do some half time darts entertainment

Without meaning to stoke the Twitter\good, Twitter\bad debate, you would think that people could apply some form of sense check before regurgitating on here the (crack)pipe dream rumours from the twits, that are patently a cry for attention and\or attempt to drum up some followers?

Yep, agree with this, been saying this for a while too. Think he's off to Sunderland though.

Lyons owner publicly stated that he wants rid of Bastos, Cisshoko, Cris and Källström. I'd take any of those in a heartbeat, Bastos in particular, top player! Can't post link on iphone

Skysports have Park to QPR as all but done and for only £2m. Seems like reasonable business at face value although I guess it depends how much they are paying him. 3 year deal for a 31 year old who's game has always relied on energy...

If that's true it's a signing I'll be very happy with.
