Simon Church & Hal Robson-Kanu playing international football for Wales is as simple as having a granny born there. their national team is abject.

Ian RoyalRoyalJames101 Just give Cedric time. He'll make it one day.. on to the pitch. I think.
As long as we don't have to give Khumalo time without a drastic and immediate improvement from him should he take the pitch for us again.

loyalroyal4life Hope he goes back to Spurs and as a goodwill gesture they loan us Gareth Bale, Luka Modric and Van Der Vaart for giving us Khumalo

Extended-Phenotype Svlad, you are just as guilty propagating the notion “all proven transfers end up sh/t”, as I am of all unknown ones.
On another thread I asked the question: who in our current side deemed a ‘success’ started out a cheap anonymous transfer?
I’ll tell you the answer: none of them. Only one fits the second part of that criteria, but is far from a success – ALF.
The best players? Proven players, brought in for decent money.
That's the reality, bud.

As a work of fiction it's top notch. Don't let the fact that it doesn't actually match the reality of the situation cloud things for a minute, though.

And it's about time that you and others accepted the reality that the Doyle and Long scenarios are very, very, much the exception - even at RFC.
If you don't tend to get what you pay for in life, why does Madejski waste so much money on Bentleys?
by Hoop Blah » 12 Jan 2012 15:33
Svlad Cjelli I honestly can't believe you'd really consider Bentleys are relevant! Can't find prices on-line, but assuming a Bentley costs about £280,000, that'd pay the player's wage bill for less than a week.
