Hahahahahahahahaha

Well, it'd be funny if it wasn't so fcuking sad

[Gail Platz]

I don't see any problem with this, will give us a chance to see what he can do (if he plays).

[bobo the clown]

Stunned. Utterly.

Story was that the Moo would have been one of the over agers until struck with the flu or something. But this is odd.

Anyway, at least he won't be tired !!

[truewhite15]

No issue with it. Happy for Marv, who'll probably be our #9 next season. Gets him warmed up for the new season, when I'm sure he'll make a bit more of an impact for us.

[jmjhb]

This is essentially a U-21 team of which he was a main part of. Hardly surprising.

[SmokinFrazier]

If he plays well, what are the odds on some Premier League club offering something like £10m?

[keveh]

How people are surprised in this is beyond me.

He's a regular U21 player who Pearce knows well, not exactly rocket science.

Good luck to him, hope we get to see him play.

[Lord Kangana]

Caps is just desperate for us to fail at everything.

[the-Bowtun-Warrior]

Couple of goals for that lot, warmed up
Nicely for the new season.

Happy for him. Happy for Bwfc

I think this is not great. Instead of a per season he's of fannying about at the Olympics no doubt not playing. When do the Olympics finish? Will he be back for the first game even?

But even if he is no doubt he will take a month to get match fit leaving us with Davies and Ngog probably for the first three months of the season. And that's if he doesn't get injured running into Micah Richards in training!

[jmjhb]

He's got more chance of being match-fit by playing matches than, er, not playing them.

[BWFC_Insane]

Yeah and how many matches is he going to play? Less than he would in a pre season for us. Quite likely he will be well warmed up for bench warming though!

its a dig at coyle, isnt it ?

[Prufrock]

I'm going to the semi, (which is on the 7th of August, final on the 11th, so cutting it fine, should we get there) so I'll let you know a)if he exists and b)how he warms up.

Yeah fat lot of good playing feckin' Morcombe, Rochdale, Barrow and any other feckin' useless team you can think of has done us!
At least pearce knows a decent player and if he feels right about it will play him unlike our dickhead!

[officer_dibble]

Is he a decent player though? we may see!! or he may get a new set of splinters for his arse

[BL3]

At least pearce knows a decent player

Who signed him?

[Prufrock]

Sir Lancelot with set of balls number three presumably. Last used for the team line-up against Stoke.

[si2008]

at least the lad going to get a run out ..get him ready for next season
