Hope he gets well soon! Shame he probably won't be able to make it on Monday.

Life is so unpredictable at times. He' still a comparatively young man so hopefully he can battle through it and cope with surgery. So strange that now players hardly stay five minutes before moving on. Per Frandsen is an example of those, like McGinley, Gudni, David Lee, Ivan Campo and Kevin Davies who have moved on but who will be forever Whites. Very best wishes to a favourite Wanderer. Get well soon Per. .

Anyway, Johansen was a good player but Frandsen was better.
Indeed. Saw them both make their debuts away at Port Vale. We left the ground questioning as to which one had actually cost all the money - a situation that would never change.

A joy of a player to watch. Oh, and as for that goal against Boro in 2003? I still have the match ball. :D

I was writing the match report for the sadly missed fanzine Tripe n Trotters and gave Per a perfect ten as MotM.

The best away performance ever. :D :D :D

Edit - just noticed. beaten to it by DSB!!! :D
For you William!

You were nearly there - what you have to do (confusingly) is just paste the last bit, the random letters/numbers after the second slash, ignoring the "http://youtube.com/" or "http://youtu.be/" bits. :D



PS Get well soon, Per, you wonderful hero.

That game was played the same day that Trinity Retail Park opened for business. I know that because I was on it and couldn't get off for over two hours. The whole area was gridlocked. I listened to the game on't radio though and that made up for it.

I remember that chance of Elliots well. Think I said to the mrs, if we can hold on for the first half hopefully we can sneak one later on. 5 minutes later we were 2 up. A young Bijou Bob missing Ricketts goal due to his slack bladder :lol:

Kevin Davies didn't leave.

He was sacked. On Christmas morning. Via text message. While he was on the job.

It went up on Friday, a day before that news about him being poorly. Strange timing, but hopefully he will read it and it will be a reminder of how highly he is thought of in England!.
