Yeah, I was halfway through a homemade tattoo. Now I've got "JOECO" on my forearm. Now I've got to try and change it. "TESCO", maybe?

I'd done similar, last caress, on my 'old chap'. Well, I was getting bored of that 'Edson Arantes Do Nascimento Pele' tat :wink:

Have we considered Nat's daughter Natalie, by the way? Old Pink 'Cadillac' Palermo would be pleased!

Would any of you consider Hargreaves on a pay as you play as our holding midfielder?

I thought the same thing earlier. I think it would be a good signing on a pay as you play deal as you say. Got a point to prove, probably wants to throw a few v signs to his doubters, and I think he still has a lot to offer, especially in our division.

Yes, but I think he can probably expect an offer on a similar basis from a club in one of Europe's top divisions. If he hasn't got a club by the beginning of the season though he would definitely be worth going for.

If he's prepared to take pretty much nothing as a basic wage, with a hefty appearance fee, then I would. But I'd imagine better clubs than us would also take him on that type of deal. Anything more than a couple of grand a week as basic, and no. I've heard for ages that he could well be finished.

Having just got rid of Dyer..people now want us to sign Hargreaves. Jimmy Greaves would be more realistic!!

Having just got rid of Dyer who was on £75,000 a week regardless, people now want us to sign Hargreaves on a pay as you play deal with next to no money when he is out injured.

Hargreaves could be realistic, solely because (as we've said) he's so very injured that not many clubs will want him. Joe Cole, I completely agree, will definitely not come back here this summer.
