Summer Transfer Thread 2012

Viral infection, that would explain a lot; although I'd much rather have ebola....

 

He went to Galatasaray last year.

[Megadrive Man]

You've really opened a can of worms here.

 

My first Instinct is to agree that It is Breakfast, lunch and dinner, however that doesn't always apply, as I used to have School dinners, but then would also have a meal later when I got home. This would be classed as tea maybe? Surely I didn't have two dinners?

 

I'm really confused now.

[Unrighteous]

We should euthanize those with the infection.

[Torvald Utne]

Lunch is for posh people.

[withnail71]

I would be lynched by a baying mob if i was to shout our lad in for 'lunch'. Lunch is for people that own banks and that. there is no place for words like that in the diction of the working class man.

Borini considering Reds move | Liverpool News, Fixtures, Results, Transfers | Sky Sports

 

Roma striker Fabio Borini is 'seriously considering' the opportunity to join Liverpool this summer, according to his agent.

 

The Serie A club's sporting director Walter Sabatini confirmed earlier on Tuesday that the Anfield outfit had expressed an interest in signing the 21-year-old.

 

Reds boss Brendan Rodgers knows Borini well, having worked with him during their time together at Chelsea and again during a loan spell with Swansea.

 

Borini netted nine goals in 24 appearances in the league for Roma last season and earned a place in Italy's Euro 2012 squad, although he did not feature during their run to the final.

 

Alerted

 

Agent Marco De Marchi plans to hold further discussions with his client in the coming days as they evaluate the possibility of a switch to the Premier League.

 

De Marchi told Radio Radio: "Roma has informed us of Liverpool's interest in the boy. Now it's up to Fabio to have his say."

 

And he added on IlSussidiario.net: "We were alerted by Roma of the existence of this deal. I cannot honestly tell you the details but, as Sabatini has already said, we're now seriously considering it.

 

"Would the player want to go to Liverpool? Honestly, I don't want to commit myself as there will be more news in the coming days. Wait for that."

Bore off, we're discussing butty boxes and that.

[Nathanzx]

groan......insiders say one of the imminent two will be scott sinclair

 

not massively excited by that if/when confirmed

[Anubis]

I take it Ramirez was a dead duck, so to speak?

[Guest ShoePiss]

That flask and butty box really brought back memories! Butties, a penguin, apple or crisps and robinson's in the flask. Ah those were the days. Sometimes I'd swap it all for a mate's dinner ticket.

[Mustangt125]

Glad we aren't just looking at British players now....

 

Though we don't need to just change our strat to going after Swansea players for Christ's sake. (Re: sinclair)

Trio or Tunnock's Caramel Wafer.

Arsed. What butty box did you have, like?

Lies!

[Guest ShoePiss]

Trio or Tunnock's Caramel Wafer.

 

Trio got an appearance but I don't remember the caramel wafer. Gold bar was a good one, Breakaway, Blue Ribbon were firm favourites too. Oh and the massive wagon wheel. The Club too.

 

Muller fruit corners, ah.

[The Golden Eel]

Hopefully not as he's nothing special at all and I don't get the impression he's got that much potential.

 

Edit: fuck sake, why do quotes keep disappearing?

[Anubis]

We were poor.

There was a lad in my year in primary school whose ma worked behind the bar in a Social Club, so she always used to stick the McCoy's crisps from her work in his butty box. Unsurprisingly, this kid was the envy of everybody for his superb choice of crispage all year around and attempts at swaps were rebuffed with a derisory sneer. Woe betide the kid who dared to offer him a bag of 10p pickled onion Space Raiders for his flame-grilled steak McCoy's...

 

I remember having a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles butty box and a Jurassic Park rucksack.

 

I've come over all nostalgic now!

[Guest ShoePiss]

Viscount was round and wrapped in green foil wasn't it? Did it have mint in it? If so was not a favourite at house of piss.

[satansmutt]

I had a Danger mouse butty box. Inside was a butty(obviously) a packet of space raiders a bottle of panda pop and a penguin bar

 

I collected my butty box at dinner time I ate my food in the dinner hall and I shouted abuse at the dinner ladies. At no time was lunch ever mentioned
