Sounds like another troublemaker to me:

Turpin was caught stealing two oxen, and was forced to flee the area and leave his wife and business behind. With customs officers in hot pursuit, Turpin had the common sense not to stay in a tavern or inn, where he could have been found easily. Turpin fled into the depths of the Essex countryside and lived rough and wild. For a time he lived in caves along the coast of East Anglia, and supported himself by robbing the smugglers who operated there — perhaps the same characters he had met earlier in life.

He'll be down Faces every night causing havoc.

Darren Thuckerby?

Knowing RARS encyclopedic knowledge of continental players, could Diogo Tavares be our major sigining?

Trez it is. I assume he's in line for his medical behind SWP, Wayne Bridge and Eidur?

papers are linking lucas neil to man city to reunite with mark hughes... the sun is also saying that mark hughes wants both lucas neil and craig bellamy since they both played at blackburn... it says an audacious bid.. that would have to be at least 10 million no?

I'd reject any move for Bellamy.

Neill is possible if we brought in a replacement (I don't think he'll go though). Any move for Bellamy on the other hand should be rejected and told not to come back.

totally agree with you harv about bellamy, we still need to see him pair up with ashton but these rumors with neil might mean that he doesnt want to sign an extension and if we actually do sign behrami (which i still doubt) then neil might actually be off and replaced by faubert

Purely because we dont need to sell and they like paying over the top.

If they can pay £20m for Jo, and happily pay Dinho £10m a year then £10m for Bellamy fair, no?

But what if Bellamy and Neil wanted to go? Are Satay more aspirational and a better bet than us?

Is Hughes a better manager than Curbs? Who have already qualified for Europe and have a 50k ish stadium?

Satay's owner has coughed squillions for their centre forward, has bid £25 million for Ronaldinho and we are............

I know some favour the slowly,slowly catchy monkey approach...........but are we in danger of being left behind - losing our impetus?

All questions Bellamy and Neil may well consider if the offer came?

After seeing Bellars interview on Sky last week he seemed adamant that West Ham was where he wanted to be.........As far as you can tell from an interview he sounded sincere enough. I have been waiting for the Hughes connection to pop up with him and todays the day. Hands off imo.
