Apparently Andy Carroll Signed

Renamed in memory of John Hawksworth, a stalwart member who passed this day 2nd August 2020. RIP Mr Monkeybutt.

Sadly we must add the name of Kevin Minton, Aka Mr Ripper who passed 30/6/22. Kev was also Mr politically incorrect but a nicer lad you could never meet.

Wow, taken over by Qataris after their supporters spent months spewing Islamophobic rhetoric due to the links with the Egyptians.

Someone would buy Barnstoneworth United before buying us.

3 year deal, not bad for a 36 year old.

Stupid deal more like. If he’d got a three year deal here it wouldn’t go down too well.

Except Carroll would have added a few hundred to the gate - and a loads of his family into hospitality....

You got it one.
Why people get physically aroused at the idea of signing a big name in the sunset years is beyond me…a one year contract’s is worth the gamble, but few players succeed, though some shine, but risking a three years contract is crazy…anyone believing any different must have the Magic Roundabout theme playing in their head on a loop for eternity.kli.
Let’s see how many games he plays…..as for Umerah…if he hasn’t lost interest there. .

I'm told - by one of his relatives - that his motivation now is the fun of playing - he actually enjoyed playing in France without pay.

It’s an interesting one as he was playing in French league 1 i think last year and the Bordeaux fans loved him so should be several levels above where he is playing…all depends on injuries and attitude but he is a bit of a wildcard and let’s be honest if he’s fit and jnterested he’ll run riot
