We're seeimingly being linked with McPhee left, right and centre.
It seems to coincide with our new-found ability to actually score.
Thoughts?

She certainly knows how to discipline the little ones, so I can't see too many problems there.

A swap for Keigan Parker seems to be the latest development. I can't help but think we get the raw deal out of that one, even if it is obvious KP will never appear in Tangerine again

Yep, Brownio confirmed post-match that we've accepted an offer from you subject to Manure allowing Fraizer Campbell to stay with us for the rest of the season
There's no swap involved I don't think. The interviewer suggested we might have tried to Get Wes whatsisface as part of the deal and Browny just laughed and said it was just a straight transfer. He was with you today talking personal terms etc though
Campbell's total class so as long as he's staying I don't mind McPhee going
Campbell's going back to Manure tomorrow to talk to Fergie, but I guess he'll tell him he wants to stay as he seems to be loving it, and I suspect he knows that in spite of how good he is he won't get near their first team this year, and as he's scoring and getting good experience I can't see them objecting
McPhee's a hard-working, fast, skillful player outside the box but he's hardly prolific inside it, and I think he's reached a point where he needs a change of scene

Vale-ites may also wish to know that it sounds like Ryan France will be joining you on loan after our FA cup game against Plymuff
Good larker just back from a long injury lay-off, but a total pro and very versatile
Reckon he must have played everywhere except in goal for us

Macphee is too good for Blackpoo.
Ryan France is too good for da Vale.

I don't like association football.
McPhee, in his last season for us, was beyond stupendous. That team contained some of the worst players we've ever had (not including the current clowns) coming up with some absolutely abysmal performances, yet we finished seventh. Most of that was down to McPhee and his partnership with Brooker. McPhee turned games that we had no right to win, (frequently through falling over in the box). He needs to play off a big target man and on the shoulder of the last defender to really make use of him properly, but wherever he plays, you'll get 100%.
We had heard you were after Luke Rodgers, which suggested that you're already planning for next season's unsuccessful attempt to return to the Championship...

mcphee huffs and puffs but it ain't good when the one player you don't want a chance to drop to is meant to be a forward
francey is ace in a jack of all trades master of none sort of way

Brooker's back in training now. He's going to fire us into the Premiership. Really.

He was indeed, until got rid. Absolutely insane football - we finished the season with four strikers in the starting line up - Paynter on the wing, before we wrecked a promising career.

Well Hortons back with us and he hasn't had any joy with Macphee this time round so the evil may as well do a Burgess on him
Sam Collins is available again btw
I think we'd happily throw him in as part of the France loan deal
Is Will Atkinson still with you?

No, back with you, but we'd have him back in a flash, and big Sam would also walk into our team. The standard of the loan players we've had compared with our own players is truly shocking.
