Guess you have personally checked that out, I mean it could`nt be just off the top of you head , right ! You telling me that Harper is as good as Shay ? And lets not mix our sports here, because as a baseball fan stepping up to the plate, means coming to bat, confusing ! Which brings me to the ones who were not meant to be as good as those they replaced (stepping up to wherever you please) are just that, Not as good ! STARDUST

When the nig chances came his way (i.e. 1 on 1 with david james v portsmouth at home) he bottled it big time! All this talk of giving him one chance and he'll score is jackanory stuff! For me; charlie and bassong never had there hearts in our club! Always talking up moves to arsenal or other "bigger" clubs. From what ive heard Alan Smith had habib beye by the throat at half time against leyton orient after he had strolled off the pitch and demonstrated in the dressing room that he didnt want to be out there for us in the first place...We certainly won't miss that attitude! If we go up then we need players who are there because they want to be there. Hungry players with something to prove. Not just big named star's; let go from so caled bigger clubs because they are past there sell by dates! There are some good championship players i'd like to see us have a look at in january..... Joe ledley, Adam Johnson, Beckford, Boyd....as well as securing danny sipmson on a permanent deal. Any two of these would be great champioship signings. Then if we get up lets buy two, maybe three quality players to supplement a strong squad with some great young talent.

I am only sad to see Given, (but Harper is as good IMO), Beye and poss the two huffy french men go Bass and Nzog - though we wouldnt have the team spirit we do now if they had stayed.   Whats ironic - is that the players who were meant not to be as good as the ones who left - have stepped up to the plate - as a team - and fight for each other. Give me that every game rather than Owen prancing around for 30mins once every 3 months. Jedi – I wasnt just talking about last season – I was talking about the season before.
