[NOT HAPPENING] Emerson de Souza

Sport Witness quoting Mundo Deportivo - we are one of 14 clubs after the Atletico Mineiro right back.

Given that the other 13 include Barcelona, Liverpool, Arsenal, Shakhtar Donetsk, Juventus, Inter Milan, Sampdoria, Sassuolo, Borussia Dortmund, Lille, FC Porto, Valencia and Real Betis, I think this may be a non-starter.

Imagine the cost to get that printed on your shirt. It's a no from me.

 

Easy for you to say.

 

I suppose they could always drop the 'Junior' - we're not likely to have his dad playing in the same team...

 

Presumably, he's known as Bobo or some such.

 

Now we're losing out to Cardiff for top talent, you may well be right although we do actually make the headline.

 

Well we tried but he had a dodgy passport. Even dodgier haircut.

 

What on earth am I going to with all these passports made out in the name "Ross Jenkins". I suppose I might be able to change a few to "Rose" or "Rosa".

 

Hasn’t happened since the 1924 season when Albert (Albie) Potts played right wing back in a Third Division South game for us with his son Albert Jr (Beaky) Potts making his debut at inside left.

 

Because you can never have enough right backs

 

We've got Kiko F to distinguish him from all our other Kikos, and J Cholevas to avoid confusion with some guy named Holebas who I thought we had signed

 

I gather Beaky played a blinder.

 

They don't sound very Brazilian...

 

Did we have a song for him that can be adapted?

 

Emerson Aparecido Leite de Souza Junior we'll just call you Dave.

 

Or maybe Rodney

 

Problem solved - some spoilsport has removed 27/34ths of his name...

 

Emerson then. Apparently also linked with Paul Lake and Carlton Palmer.

 

Tarkus a long time for that link to be made.

 

the best Trilogy

 

You'll be giving GoBE flashblacks.

 

Next you'll be telling me that you believe in father xmas.

 

I hear the majority of the incumbents of the Politics thread have found a car boot featuring hand held self ventilation devices.

It's a Fan Fair for the Common Man!

(Best said in a Partridge voice.)

 

Back of the net !

 

If his dream is to be signed by a Premier League club, fail in his bid for a work permit, and spend the next several years on loan in Spain, I see no reason why we wouldn’t be at the top of his list of clubs.

 

J Holebas was a Greek international footballer plying his trade at Roma. Before his disappearance, he had successfully kept Ashley Cole out of the leftback slot. He was last seen being forcibly bundled into the boot of a Fiat 1500. That car reportedly reached Dover. Customs officials say that a similar looking man to J Holebas was removed from the boot but his passport said he was Cholevas. Holebas has never been found.

 

No 0- but try as i might - i could not fit Pictures at an exhibition or Brain Salad Surgery into a pun

 

I suspect the latter is practised at Colney.

The dark, voodoo side of South Mimms.

 

Of course, Brexit will slam the lid on Gino’s transfer window shenanigans.

 

On the contrary, it may lead to more kidnappings.
Gino is a cautious man. Mr Holebas may have been just the start. Take a player that nobody knows and nobody will miss. Gino is testing the system before working his his way up to bigger targets.

 

Yes particularly if players would otherwise be stuck at customs for 2 weeks while border staff try to assesss value and whether they are vatable, and if duty is due, and if quotas and tariffs are applicable.

 

I Karn Evil believe you tried.

 

i did!! - 9 times

 

It’s all on a Knife Edge....best leave it to (the 3) Fate(s)
