Re: Tuesday's gossip includes west ham
cheers CH!
that's a bit boring.
all we read about is Hughes and his nouveau-riche shitty tapping up players.
How come there's nothing going our way?
I guess we'll always be the club for the Di micheles and the Tristans out there.

Eidur Gud-who?
While I would like him at the club, I feel to get dragged into this rant and rave again is ridiculous.
I much prefer the rumours of Balotelli... as he is much better on FM than Gudjohnson :lol:

I have a feeling we're one of these clubs who's bid for Fortune. If this Gudjohnsen story is true - with Zola and Clarke there - surely he'll come now!?
