Was it mutual?

Sturrock only had 13 games, for fuck's sake. Hardly enough time to fare badly.

Apparently the players didn't like his training regime or something. Pussies.

Rupert Lowe is a cock sucker, too. Always has been. He talks about media pressure, the stupid fucking cunt encouraged it by basically admitting Sturrock would be gone if he lost the match on Saturday.

Sturrock probably left because he got fed up being treated like shit by an arrogant cock of a chairman.

The Mackem 08-23-2004 10:07 AM

Daft thing is, if he stayed with Plymouth he might have been in the Premiership next season. Plymouth look like the suprise package of Division 1 this season.

Rob Ban Fan 08-23-2004 11:41 AM

<font face=verdana size=3 color="#ff6600">yeah, as ECG said, Lowe has always been a bit of a dickhead and it was him that told the local papers that Sturrock's "honeymoon perioid was over" which lead to all the pressure. Most scummers hate Lowe anyway because they feel he lacks ambition and is very tight when it comes to money. He refused to release an extra few grand to buy Javier De Pedro so they instead had to settle for Neil McCann who was shite. They also blame him for fat boy Beattie wanting to leave.

The timing is stupid too because he's allowed him to spend money over the summer and by the time they appoint anyone new, they're going to be stuck with the current squad until january.</font>

*stands up*

i couldnt believe that game, we were shit 1st half then got back into on half time. scored two fantastic goals then let bergkamp walk through us while we back off. then a daft minute lost us game. always had hope though, it was always going to have another goal before the end - just wished we'd scored the bloody thing.

it would have been good if parlours shot from half way line had gone in to make it 5-4 !

good game to watch for the neutral

Mr. Monday Morning 08-23-2004 01:10 PM

Let's not forget Lowe also sacked Dave Jones when he was accused of whatever it was (child molesting was it? :$ ) - not just saying this cause he's now our manager but I couldn't believe that when it happened, particularly since Jones got them to 10th or so one season, which as far as I'm aware is the highest they had finished in the top flight in years until Strachan came along.

Mr. Monday Morning 08-23-2004 01:15 PM

Oh yeah, Blackburn are attempting to sign Morten Gamst Pederson, who is the man in Champ Man.

And Robbie Savage has been charged with elbowing Kezman :love:

Dazz 08-23-2004 02:18 PM

Yeah as soon as Jones was accused of kiddy fiddling he was sacked, they didn't even wait to see if he was guilty or not, which is pretty out of order.

Glad Savage got the ban, he is a cunt, and anyone who says "you only hate him because he is good" is wrong, I hate him because he is a cheating cunt and deserves to be punished more often, he is not better then average.

And wee Gooner, that Mutu and Henry song is shit, Mutu had to be mentioned in the last line.

correct me if i'm wrong, i think when they took the stance of sacking jones, it was to do with child molesting and was in the wake of what happened with greham rix at chelsea. I think jones was cleared of all charges, however soton sacked him for it thinking they were doing the right thing.

Pederson is apparently a bag of wank. Our scouts have been watching him and he hasn't impressed

El Capitano Gatisto 08-23-2004 02:30 PM

He looked class when I saw him. Only the once, mind you. Certainly worth a try.

Andy Reid is far better though.

I think they actually suspended him indefinitely pending the result of the investigation, with Jones eventually leaving through mutual consent.

I am sure he never left by mutual consent.

El Capitano Gatisto 08-23-2004 02:50 PM

Yeah I checked. He was suspended for 12 months pending the case, then he took Southampton to a tribunal for the suspension, but the tribunal found in favour of the club.

The club had a right to suspend him, but they were kind of transparent in the way that they obviously had no intention of bringing him back whatever the outcome.

boro have had him on trial 3 times and were not impressed by him

El Capitano Gatisto 08-23-2004 03:14 PM

Doesn't mean anything. He's a full Norwegian international and he has done enough to garner attention from around Europe.

If someone like Blackburn are willing to give him a go, they will deservedly reap the rewards.

Dazz 08-23-2004 03:29 PM

Look at how well Blackburn did with John Stead, they know their shit. (Forgets Yorke and Cole)

El Capitano Gatisto 08-23-2004 03:41 PM

Sky Sports are reporting a £20 million bid for Wayne Rooney from Newcastle.

Sturrock definately won't be giving me back my Skynyrd CD now.

yeah i know it means nothing, a few years ago we had a young centre back on our books and let him go as he wasnt good enough, that same person has just joined real madrid for £13.4m!

he may have been injured while on trial, he may have been best player out there, who knows what goes on behind the scenes at clubs. ive only heard good reports though about him so all the best to the lad if he does move to blackburn.

Rob Ban Fan 08-23-2004 04:25 PM

<font face=verdana size=3 color="#ff6600">not looking good for Wolves right now :$

Rochdale 2 - 0 Wolves

Adam Kirk :(</font>

Mr. Monday Morning 08-23-2004 04:45 PM

2-1, Ince's one long-range goal per season quota is already up.

Not particularly bothered, but it's pretty shocking how bad some of the twats we've got playing are.

Rob Ban Fan 08-23-2004 05:12 PM

<font face=verdana size=3 color="#ff6600">3-2 Wolves</font>

Mr. Monday Morning 08-23-2004 05:55 PM

Comeback of the year ;)

packt up 08-23-2004 05:55 PM

LOL at us bidding for Rooney.

El Capitano Gatisto 08-23-2004 06:00 PM

Must be all that talk of hookers and brothels that got Newcastle interested in him.

packt up 08-23-2004 09:37 PM

He'l fit right in.

Seems like its just to appease the fans with little thought about our actual current situ - ie we have no defence with Ameobi and Kluivert on the bench.

Unless we play Rooney in defence or ship some strikers out soon its utterly pointless.

Should throw Dyer into the deal - he'd love that.

Cactus Sid 08-24-2004 07:09 AM

The whole Rooney to Newcastle thing proves once again that Fredy Sheppard knows fu</>ck all about football.

Mind you, that pretty much covers all chairmans, managing directors, board members etc...

packt up 08-24-2004 09:31 AM

Freddy Sheppard is a dickhead.

Yeah its best that Dyer went the other way, or he'd "look after" rooney.

Doink 08-24-2004 03:33 PM

from what i've been reading i dont think rooney needs looking after!

i even read that with one of the prostitutes he gave her a £50 note and waited for his £5 change :rofl: what does that say about her performance ?

Mr. Monday Morning 08-24-2004 04:40 PM

Chelsea 1-0 up, Drogba off the mark

Is it me or does Lampard seem jaded so far this season? :-\

No, Lampard is as good as ever, people just expect too much of him now, it was his pass out wide to Baba, and it was a good un. He is still the man.

Joe Cole might as well fuck off if he doesn't realise that they are ten other people on his team. Granted he has skill, but not as much as he thinks.

P.S Check your rep sheet

Dazz 08-24-2004 06:04 PM

Well I was certainly glad to see the back of Joe Cole, dunno why he put on Eidur, and Drogba got injured :'(. Tiago did fuck all but scored a good goal so I guess I can't be mad at him, I can be mad at our fans for creating the worst song ever:

" TIIIIIIIAAAAAGOOOOOOO, OOOOOOHHHHHHHH,
He came from Portugal,
He hates the Arsenal,
TTIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAGGGGGOOOOOOO" :|

That was Kezman's pass :o

They look the same from the back and the number looked more of an eight :$

You can use all three, not just the one, I have two of them now, get the third tomorrow :cool:

Mr. Monday Morning 08-24-2004 06:35 PM

There's one per day, so there'll be 2 more after tomorrow :y:

I thought there were three overall, and two have been, you have got two so far right?
