Wasn't Dwight Pezzarossi also? I seem to remember him pitching up from Guatemala with his Guinea Pig sandwiches and was completely shite. Wasn't he the first Guatemalan? Is he also, to date, the last?

Jason Cunliffe from Guam. Great goal-scoring record. YHIHF.

Afghan international midfielder/winger who has played in Germany apparently. Unless it's bollocks.

Josef Shirdel is who Nixon claims we are signing.

No confirmation from a better source though.

However, I note IF it is true it would be a 4th signing over 6ft.....

Good test of Nixon's credentials this. Josef Shirdel from Afghanistan is quite the guess if your business is pulling rumours out of your arse.

Of course that isn't what he's doing. Anyone who genuinely thinks that is totally bonkers.

But depends who is telling him stuff.

Assume this guy must have a dual nationality as he'd not get a work permit.

He was born in Germany and, judging by his career history, was probably raised there. A work permit shouldn't be a problem.

He can sign. As long as he's contractually obliged to keep twatdick wilkinson and Dervite in his cellar.

Anyhow Nixon says he doesn't know anything other than he's been told the lad is coming in tomorrow. I will bet it is for a trial rather than a straight signing. Seems too random that Parky's team would have scouted him.

Unless they'd already scouted him. :-)
