I can't say anything bad about him after the way he befriended poor wee Bradley Lowery. If he joins Rangers then I'm sure you'll manage it. Adam Hammill has left St Mirren for Scunthorpe.

Guest Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 17 minutes ago, Phil Dunphy said: That’s a very good signing for Rangers, if he manages to hit the ground running. But hes about 49 and hasn’t played a game since last season. So who knows. I predict he'll be added to the massive list of big name EPL players who come up here for what they think will be one last big pay-off and easy Saturdays spent running rings around snail-like, club footed Scottish defenders but who get a rude awakening and scurry back pronto before they lose any more face.

Carl Fredrickson Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Defoe banged on a fair few goals for a struggling Sunderland team that hardly created any chances. He works his socks off and is an example to others. His finishing is second to none and I think he will be their main striker - even at his age. I mind him being loaned out by West Ham (?) to Bournemouth years ago when the Cherries were in the lower leagues. IIRC he broke goalscoring records as a youngster, on loan at a struggling team. His goals per game ratio is bound to be very good and his move from Sunderland to Bournemouth has seem his struggle with injury. Most of his games have been as a sub. He is a good guy who I will hate to see playing for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannibal Lecter Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Kyle Lafferty - Remember there is a rule that although players can be registered with a maximum of 3 clubs over the course of a season they can actually only appear for 2. The only exception is if moving between 2 clubs where seasons overlap starts summer/autumn rather than winter/spring then they may allowed to play for a 3rd.

I'm not suggesting that they didn't become close or that Defoe wasn't genuinely heartbroken when Bradley passed away, more a question of his original motives.

I dont know the timing off the appointment of the PA but I know that when he was at Sunderland he was praised for the time he spent with fans (not just Bradley and his family) but having kickabouts in the street with kids etc. I think as he has got older he has realised that there is more to life and is trying to give something back. (I have liked him for a long time and will defend him up to he signs for them!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
