SimonM Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 The reports about the Johnson sale also mention that Portsmouth still owe Liverpool ?7 million for Crouch, so presumably this will be off-set?Nice of West Ham to loan Sears to Crystal Palace...they must imagine they owe Neil Warnock something obviously: cannot imagine why....B) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/5028-on-the-ball-new-football-focus/page/111/#findComment-216686 Share on other sites More sharing options...

'bout now Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 As a hammer I think the best thing about Neil Warnock is the anagram of his name, so appropriate.

Annasfield Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Work with a load of lads who all support Pompey. A couple of them are good mates with Mr Westwood - I'd assume that if you are mates with him, you'd probably know them.

ratty Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I know of John. Not the biggest fan of his as the self proclaimed (and named) Mr Pompey. My contacts are more on the media and business side, although I am in direct contact with Mr Crouch and his lovely partner Abi.

Annasfield Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Yeah, I have to say I don't think he'd be my cup of tea. I won't ask how you know Crouch. Was disappointed to see him go, but totally understand his reasoning.

matthew123 Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 5 years ago Michael Owen walked out on Liverpool for ?8m rather than sign a new contract - consequently he sat on the bench for Real Madrid as his dream turned sour, then he spent 4 years injured at Newcastle, and also lost his England place under Capello. Is that punishment enough? Well Hull City are now in for him.. but just when you thought that was the final insult we now have the ultimate slap in the face.. Rory Delap and his long ball throwing mates are chasing his signature, yep Stoke City!!

Atila Reincarnate Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 In fairness to Owen, a player I've always had a great deal of time for, I'm not sure his departure from Pool is as straight forward as suggested by Matthew123. For what it's worth I'd have him on a pay as you play basis, I think he's still got something to offer.

???? Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I can't remember for sure but didn't Owen not feel very loved when he left Liverpool was doing a lot of bench sitting and then had a chance to go to Madrid?..hindsights wonderful but I think his decision to go at the time looked a reasonably sensible one.
