New players

[HerbertLaumen]

Nope, OP

[oldparish]

Thanks Herbert.Will be checking out Dundee Utd on Setanta Sports to see what the boy Kerr is like

[HerbertLaumen]

Pls keep us informed

[oldparish]

Will do.But what's the betting they won't be on tv again this season.They do have a game against Rangers though, so they may be on then.

[oldparish]

Just sat through the biggest load of crap ever,Dundee United v Hibernian,to see what Mark Kerr was all about.The game just passed him by(basically because the ball was lumped forward as quickly as possible and it looked like they were playing with a balloon the ball was in the air for so long),looked like he has quick feet but didn't seem interested.Looked like a player that knows he's leaving at the end of the season.Willo Flood and Mark de Vries did catch the eye for Dundee United and there was a lad in midfield from north Africa I think, whose name I couldn't pronounce never mind spell who wasn't bad

[DocHoliday]

Thank you for your perseverance.

[oldparish]

No problem doc.They're on again next Saturday but I don't know if i can sit through another 90 minutes.

[berti mac]

willo flood was a junior player at manchester city, he has a good energy level but he is a bit weak. he looks as if a strong gust of wind will blow him over, never mind some of those big scottish midfielders

[oldparish]

yeah berti,he spent some time at Cardif City (sorry Ins) for a little while and he does look a bit lightweight.De Vries is the complete opposite big,strong and aggresive.

[DocHoliday]

Michael Bradley is expected to sign a deal with Borussia tomorrow.

[oldparish]

Just saw that on the homepage,Doc.Don't know much about him though.According to "Kicker" last week they seem to think we are trying to sign two players one defender and one offiensive mid-fielder.

[Steehaan]

He is 2in1

[oldparish]

The big question now is, will the Canuck and the Yank get along in our team

[DocHoliday]

This Wayne Hennessey fella, might he envisage a passionate love affair with Borussia?

[oldparish]

He's playing in the Championship at the moment,Doc.That's the zweite liga to any normal thinking person(only in England,eh!).Were you there last night?What did you think of James Collins?He's playing in West Ham's reserves (even before his knee injury) surely he could do a job for us and be guaranteed first team football.I don't think Ins would be too happy though as he's ex-Cardiff City.Pity to see Marko sitting in the stand and not on the field on the tv.What Germany could have done with him as I'm sure he would have been more of a threat than Trochowski as good as he was.Marko offers something different.Do you think,if he's fit,he'll play against England next month?Or is Jogi keeping him as a secret for later in the qualifiers for example Russia away.

[DocHoliday]

To be honest, I switched off TV at halftime . Watched a little bit from the couch to save money, so I can not really answer all of your questions, I am sorry.
What Jogi plans with Marko, no one knows.

[oldparish]

In England many fans of the big clubs are not interested in their national team.Is it becoming the same in Germany?I saw many empty seats in the Borussia Park and I also heard the Westfalen stadion wasn't sold out either.It seems to me Doc that(to quote the Great Effenberg) your heart "schlaegt auch nur fuer Moenchengladbach" and the national team is a long way second.Am I right?

[DocHoliday]

Oh, oldparish, you are fatally wrong . "Die Nationalmannschaft" has highest esteem among German football fans. That the matches were not sold out is normal, because it was weekday and the matches were not that important and prestigious .

[oldparish]

Glad to hear it Doc.

[oldparish]

Doc,read over the week-end that Wolves have offered Wayne Hennessey more money to stay at the club.Looks like he'll be more in love with Wolverhampton than Borussia.Having said all that he let in five last night.
