$200 to the server fund was generous, sure

Leicester's two new forward signings, Roberto Mancini and Dean Sturridge, both started.

Mancini could have scored after just nine minutes only for Sturridge to take a cross off the Italian's head as he was poised to strike.

It was no surprise when Mancini, making his first start for eight months, was replaced by Ade Akinbiyi midway through the second half.

guppy on the bench wtf

Impey, Guppy, Izzet, Akinbiyi - the sort of semi-forgotten names that stir inexplicable nostalgia for failed Fantasy League campaigns long past.

matt elliott to liverpool

it just occured to me today that delap - crouch is going to be one of the most formidable striking partnerships this year.

ha

no

the guy can't head the ball

seriously

Impey, Guppy, Izzet, Akinbiyi - the sort of semi-forgotten names that stir inexplicable nostalgia for failed Fantasy League campaigns long past.

Guppy played for Celtic! For three seasons! And I have no memory of him whatsoever...

the lw england 'didn't have' for ten years imo

adebayor bale becks is gonna be a much deadlier aerial delivery/finish combo imo

i remember liking those names cos they sounded like cartoon characters.

Guppy played for Celtic! For three seasons! And I have no memory of him whatsoever...

Guppy could put a great cross in - mostly underused. Part of our triple swoop for him, John Hartson and um, Momo Sylla iirc.

Jim Magilton! Neil Shipperley! Francis Benali!

wow. two former oxford utd players in that leicester team.

Leicester: Royce, Rowett, Elliott, Taggart, Impey, Jones, Izzet, Robbie Savage, Davidson, Sturridge, Mancini.

why does Savage get his full name?

Obviously there was a Roberto Savage in the Leicester squad at the same time. Robbie Mancini had just been sold to Wycombe Wanderers.

bloody painful looking at that leicester team of lower league rough diamonds and knowing qpr turned their noses up at it for mark hateley and a load of other big money rejects managed by stewart fucking houston.

curbs managing keller, elliott, taggart, lennon, alex rae, andy roberts, andy booth, mendonca... we'd never have fallen so low.

course it's all changed now hasnt it. eek.

A brief spell at Nottingham Forest followed, where he scored the opening goal of the game on his debut against Walsall to end Forest's dreadful goal drought. In another game, whilst warming up on the touchline, Forest fans started singing "Andy Impey's got no neck!" He's just a head on some shoulders!" Impey subsequently turned round and revealed his neck to the fans, starting an onslaught of songs about the neckless wonder. These 2 events mean he will go down in Forest folklore forever.

andy later went on to achieve fame as the popular dancehall entertainer vybz kartel.

fun fact: impey not only sat in the away section when qpr sealed promotion at watford but was among the first to invade the pitch as well

mundane thing to do for an ex pro you would have thought but nm

while i'm at it i may as well report that joey barton's been working on the team spirit at loftus rd this morning by destroying one of jay bothroyd's ugg boots

bothroyd for his part is "loving the banta"

McCarthy has one more spare place in his squad after naming 24 players this season and believes other options might also attract Wolves.

He said: “There will be out-of-contract players going to different clubs. One might pop up that’s suitable and if they do, of course we’ll consider it.

“El-Hadji Diouf is out of contract and Steed Malbranque has paid his up at St Etienne.”

I know this is bullshit but I'm still all a-flutter.

either would be great, who do you need more

Why would you need Dioufy? Apart from the entertainment value? And I don't mean footballing entertainment.

Dioufy wd bring some much needed grit and maybe a few more goals

he is a massive grit

like Fletcher-Doyle is a no-brainer at the moment and i think Seb has been undervalued by McCarthy but after that our striking options are thin

He was shit for Rangers (xp)

that proves he's got a good heart imo

Obv. he was too dim to realise what he'd gotten himself into and that might have affected his form

sthing wrong when jaybees gets #10

Dioufy wd bring some much needed grit

He's a snide cynical diving fuck who gets involved in all kinds of shit and provokes frequent handbags episodes but grit? No.

Good enough player though.

yah i think dioufy brings a sense of good old fashioned allardycean grit stylings without rly bringing the actual grit

Captive Dane held against his will in an inhospitable region, paraded in front of the cameras

It's to show his family that he is still alive, by the looks of it.

wolves, eh. Bogey team iirc. Gonna hold off on judgement of anything til adebayor gets a few games.

Sandro on long term deal. Seems pre-emptive tbh, but he was great last year.

Adebayor Sandro and, so far, friedel sort three problem positions from last season. Wish we'd got cahill tho.

Big step up for us after the first 3 games, obv. Apparently we're starting the same team as the last 3 matches, which is pleasing. Still unsure about how much our liability players have improved, Bale will murder Stearman for pace so I'm hoping there's some kind of masterplan lol as if.

the masterplan was that it would be crouch waiting for the cross. Ooooh, bad luck

hoping McCarthy is lying and suddenly Zubar will turn up from wherever he's got him locked up

http://www.expressandstar.com/sport/wolverhampton-wanderers-fc/2011/09/07/richard-stearman-stays-at-right-back/

No, apparently Mick is just being a dick.

NB: I like Stearman and he's been decent at RB but he's already been turned by slower wingers than Bale this season.

the masterplan is whenever bale goes forward take out a cardboard cutout of robin van persie up the other end so that adebayor will run 90 yards across the pitch towards the cardboard to stamp on it.

it's so crazy that it might just work

as long as you don't expect dawson to pay attention to it, like

Won't work, the cardboard cutout of RVP is injured iirc

on a point of information-

A cardboard cutout of van persie, sir, would be considerably less injury-prone than the original, we may safely assume.
