Thread: Free-agent update/surgery for Vassell

    Free-agent update/surgery for Vassell

    Paul, any chance you can tell Warnie about a player we could sign?

    He has got a GCSE in R.E

    He cries when he watches Little House on the Prairie

    And he takes time to put all his recyclables in the correct bin.

    He can't trap a football to save his life but I think he is just the type Warnie is looking for.

    Here we go again! We await with baited breath why this one didn't come off, meanwhile the lad will probably be signing for one of our relegation rivals as we speak. Pathetic!

    The probability is that Warne openly talking about his “character wobbles “ has persuaded him to try somewhere else where he might be more warmly received !

    Does anyone remember when Trevor Francis the then manager of Sheffield Wednesday invited a French man to train with them. He was asked to play in a reserve match but the player refused. Eric Cantana went on to win the league a few times.

    Francis actually wanted to see him train on Grass, he came over in the winter and they were training on the aurora plastic pitches on Bawtry road due to their own pitches being frozen. In the meantime Leeds nipped in and the rest as they say is history.

    When the seagulls follow the trawler it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea.

    From Paul Davis's twitter account.............

    Free-agent striker from Germany who trained with RUFC ... problem with his contract at his last club in Saudi Arabia.
    Don’t expect anything any time soon.



    I don't think any of us were actually expecting anything really so that's just fine

    It's not too difficult...

    1) Get the ZX Spectrum and put in a list of all the available forwards that are free agents
    2) Filter out the crocked ones -although we don't usually bother with that bit
    3) Filter out the ones who have hardly played in the previous two seasons (Hi , Dexter!)
    4) Filter out the ones with contract/visa/permit problems
    5) Filter out the ones who hardly ever score (we don't usually bother with that either)
    6) Filter out the ones who have played less than 5 games at this level (that's another one that we don't usually bother with)
    7) For Warney - filter out any that may "be evil bad lad" (anagram of David Badiell)

    Job done... but we've wasted so much time , there's probably nobody left!

    I'd be amazed if there is any new player additions between now and the end of this season
