Whilst it would be hilarious if true and would hark back to the days of Robert Page smacking David Perpetuini outside a kebab shop - the account tweeting this has long been derided as a bit of an oddball who makes up nonsense and claims he knows players etc, with an almost 0% strike rate for the truth. He once claimed Dion Dublin is his best mate - yet then tweeted a day later that Dion Dublin had been attacked by his Homes Under The Hammer co-host. Not even kidding. File under: Funny but nonsense.
Our porky Turk is clearly enjoying today at the expense of our even porkier Anglo! Early Valentine's Day card, they're the best of mates really.
Best Watford bust-up since Nigel Pearson clocked Adam Masina at halftime at West Ham. Always entertaining, that's Watford.
It’s less the content than the source that makes me sceptical. Also I don’t think Rose has the passion required to lamp anyone at training.
Luv it Stevo. Yeh, Better just to stick him in the youth team, dont let in the squad and wait til he leaves. Cant be costin us that much in wages anyway
I'm calling BS on Rose punching Tufan. Behind the scenes there are always physcal altercations in football but had Rose actually commited an assault we'd have reason to terminate his contract, which we haven't
As a player, this is the best thing all round, he is not up for the Premier League at the moment and we cannot carry a passenger. I had doubts on this signing after the attitude he showed on the early career loan he had to us when we sent him back for negative attitude, which also showed in the THFC program on Amazon. All the talk was that he had grown past that and was helping the kids, so we had hope. As a human being I hope he finds the mindset and fitness to either find his place in the game again, or retire and find happyness.
Leventhal has attempted to give some background this morning: Contract not terminated but is allowed to leave. Now clearly third choice. Almost certain not to be in 25 man squad if he stays. Source close to player has refused to say he’s played his last game for the club - but it’s ‘possible’. Club source has said ‘we have 3 LB’s and that’s too many’ Although Leventhal speculates a departure could me we go in for Doig (£2m-£3m) Mentions James Morris playing tomorrow (DING DING DING) Rose disillusioned with Ranieri’s ‘methods, tactics, patterns of play and some of their training pitch interactions’. Believed his agent is positioning him for a move. Was close to joining Trabzonspor in the summer - possibility of resurrecting this is mentioned but no at all concrete. Situation is described as a mess. Rose was supposedly calm and knuckled down after his fitness was criticised. Sources close to Rose have offered ‘constructive criticism’ to the player.
The club certainly are experts at clogging up the wage bill with old players who contribute the square root of **** all to the team.
I reckon between players like that and paying managers off we could’ve built a solid upper PL level defence.
