Apparently, an appeal on Kickstarter has already raised £1/4m towards this... :twisted:

aye - but vertigo had "limped off" - you had the more serious-sounding "stretchered off!"

the next bugger coming along with the story will be having him "scraped off"! :wink:

I heard Chungy had to be scraped off (whatever that means) last night.

I heard Chungy lost a leg on the pitch. Probably won't get more than £1m for him now.

I heard they had to rinse Chungy out of the pitch last night. Could be out of their next game.

So effectively (it's a question) if Chungy's injury was serious and nobody comes forward right now, Bolton could end up paying for him to be treated and got ready to move on to a new club for free in five months?

Indeed. And sadly it won't be the first time either. :(

The amount of players who have run down their contracts and buggered off somewhere better pales in comparison to the number we bin off with little ceremony every year. I wouldn't feel too sorry for us.

I'm of the opinion that us getting into the playoffs is a fanciful long-shot, let alone winning them. If we can get money for Chungy and replace him with Commons it's a no brainer.
