I was kinda hoping for Ian Walker to complete my hall of fame 5 a side team from the 90's of
Walker, Carr, Anderton, Ginola, Sheringham.
Walker, Carr, Anderton, Ginola, Sheringham.
This has made me so fucking happy!
Just booked for 3 of us, anyone know of their going to open the back of the upper tiers? i was surprised how much had sold out since I last looked a week ago
I'm guessing there must be subs? Have Robbo and Walker playing a half each maybe.
Absolutely delighted how this is lining up though. Still over half an 11 to go yet too!
Am I deluding myself in thinking that Spurs might be waiting to see the fate of Real Madrid's season before trying to tempt Modric and Bale for this?
If they win tomorrow night there is no hope but if they go out of the Champions League and Atletico wrap up La Liga quickly there might be a small chance.
Am I the only one who doesn't think Robbo is a legend?
04-07 was when I was going to the lane often, he was easily 10 points a season back then when we had Noe Paramot and Atouba in defence, he was superb, I stopped supporting England when they ruined his career, you can track his sad decline to directly after the Gary Neville backpass and carrying ball over the line on another error, both ruined him. Very sad - he was a great keeper
Probably
It's not a legends team though, it's players that King played with.. Besides, who would be a 'legend' goalkeeper that could still play?
Unless this stems from you misunderstanding my colloquial use of the word 'legend' in my initial post in which case :adelol:
Also think it's nice to see him back playing after his illness. I know he's at Blackburn but he loves it here and we loved him as 'keeper!
Don't get me wrong. Great servant for the club, but I don't see him as a great player. He's still only 34. Once an England international and now a championship stalwart.
I dunno, but maybe I was hoping for a bit more than just "players who've played with Ledders". Frankly I think King deserves the very best to be turning out, just as been the case for Giggs, et al. Having said that, with Gomes still on our books, Robbo is probably the only credible keeper we've had in recent years that we can ask back. So maybe I'm jumping the gun...

proper Spurs him, loves the club. being class or not shouldn't have to come into it with guys like him imo (and he was far from shit)
Definitely worth asking!!
Whoever has the ROBBO/PARK LANE banner just HAS to bring it... (or give it to someone who is going!)
Hope so.
Agree. England kills managers and goalkeepers. Did David Seaman do much after 2002?
Conspiracy theory time.
Are they slow releasing the names of the players because they are going to sack Tim and don't know for certain if Ferdinand and Freund will still be employed by the time the game comes round.
Think about it they should pretty much be a shoe in to play some part on the day but won't necessarily be kept on by a new manager who will want his own coaching staff.
Would be terribly awkward to have to drop them from the line up in this scenario.

Well we don't care about the pony tail but there is history, Ian Walker getting beaten near post all those years ago helped ruin his confidence too, and I really liked him too. that was for me England's first offence, After they killed the confident and talented Robbo that was it for me, along with the many other reasons - no more England
when i hear the word booby, our error ridden former excuse for a goalkeeper doesnt enter my mind, I'll you tell you that for nowt, MrsP.
