Anyway he's signed a contract but the last paragraph at the article boils my piss.

"And shed a tear (or not) for Hartlepool FC, who ignored Porter's pleas to leave for Wellington at the end of last season. They now admit they have nobody lined up to replace their goal-scoring Aussie, and the financial crisis makes relegation next season a real probability. Poetic justice? "

Who the fook are Hartlepool FC???

All Aussies, Joel excluded are big mouthed gobshites with pea brains

Q. What is the worlds loudest noise......
A. An Aussie slapping himself on the back

They make a very fair point, in that if we don't replace Joel properly we probably are relegation fodder. Browny is going to take a while to get back to his best and apart from him we have nothing. We were right to take the option on him though, it would have been stupid for us to have just let him go for nothing! If this Wellington outfit had actually made a cash offer for him fair enough but the sheep shagging damned bounders wanted him for nothing.

Australian 4-4-2 my arse, they're just one step up from putting coats down for goals.

Aye, we've ruined his career, we took up a clause that was in a contract he signed to keep him at the club that give him a chance in English football. Who knows where he'd be at now without that contract.

Fucking convicts.
