    He is not a Prem player, Prem wages, but not a Prem player. 

    Fills a void for sure, a type of player we need. But we are signing him after the horse has bolted and overpaying for that too. With money that was not available a few weeks ago. Signing players from Prem clubs  for notable fees and wages that have not made it as Prem players is a road we have gone down and just spent 3 years recovering from. As a principle, we have learnt nothing. But there is no shock there, as the club continually lies, and invents new approaches on a 2/3 yearly cycle. 

    As a player, Twine will improve us in certain areas, and at least provide a different option.  He did OK for Hull and is up to speed fitness-wise so can contribute from day 1.

    No excuses now for not getting promotion. 

     

    Its effing top 6..... Not promotion.....

    I always wore shin pads until one game (at Wick I think it was) when I unpacked my bag to find no shin pads.

    Sod's law, 5 minutes into the game I knocked a through ball past the centre half. I was quick, so he raised his foot to bring me down. The edge of the sole of his boot (screw in studs) ran up the front of my shin and peeled the skin off like a pencil sharpener.

    Cue everyone pointing out that I should have worn shin pads!

     

     

    yeah......you should have worn shin pads.....
