Good riddance says I.

Well Joss Windass says hes the best Back in Div 2, but still you know best.

Not a surprise! and I think it may be a calculated risk (forget about the money) on his part,but a clever one as his strengths are getting forward and creating the extra man
At Acci he sometimes was out of position when possession was surrendered,but at Pompey I wouldn't expect him to be in his own half very often !
He grew on me and was quick over ten yards ,had a great touch and was improving with experience.
Sometimes players move on for unrelated football reasons,I wish him all the best ,good lad as well

I do hope that my attempts at monitoring and listing the development of the Squad has been of help in keeping track of things. Thanks to those of you for your prompts on some movements of players that I missed occasionally. I did this really for my own benefit as the Fishy Site don't really keep a 'Development List' of the Squad during the summer. I enjoyed doing it though.
Here's to a great season with The STANLEY

On a plus side, we'll only miss him for about 15 games a season

you,ve probebly got that spot on. he,s always has injury problems and always seemed to come off 2nd. best when he went in for a strong 50/50 challenge. most people will remember him for his occasional super goal and exciting runs g etting forward. as a defender he left quite a bit to be desired. as far as being fat is concerned i think you may have got this wrong. he,s like billy kee. akinfenwa and billy sharp. people seem to think if you dont look like someone out of a second world war jap. prison camp you,re overweight and unfit.

Chris Eagles in the squad for tomorrow presumably on non contract terms.

Both players are on initial non contract terms, whether they get a contract that's too see still

He's an opponent now so he's a fat get. Last week he was of a muscular physique - it's the same with hair colour, many opponents are jinje until they sign for us and become Strawberry Blondes

John O'Sullivan, coming back on loan?? Great news if true

Where have you heard that? Would be good news if true but Rovers have been loaning him.out to league 1 clubs, doubt they'd let him come back but hey, who'd have thought Chris Eagles would be pulling on a Stanley shirt - anything's possible

John O'Sullivan is simply too good for Blackburn Rovers!
He'd be better off signing for the STANLEY

[winstanley asfc]

Chris Eagles. Wasn't he one of Burnley's best players when they won promotion to the Prem' the first time? He's only 30,we usually sign "big names" when they're about 35 and struggle to last 90 minutes. I think/hope he will do a very good job for us!
