Emile Mpenza

Needles, along with Chris, two of the best nicknames ever.

2007? B-b-b-but; I don't understand. I thought we didn't exist before September 2008?

It's when we were in a previous incarnation - East Manchester Railwaymen FC.
A non-league amateur team who were a real club playing for the pleasure and paying subs every week.
Traveling to the game on the bus.
Buying and washing their own kit.

Good thing we had him under that clown Pearce. Only for Mpenza we more than likely would of went down. Two huge goals away at Newcastle and Boro.
Corradi and Samaras we're dogsh*t.

I always thought that" Chris" was the nickname for Kiki Musampa. Apologies if I am wrong though.

Good to see Michael Johnson involved too

What mightve been eh

It took us years to find a decent striker after him. Bianchi, Castillo, Jo etc.

Nery castillo, if there was ever a player that summed up "looks good on youtube" it has to be him.
Think he may of played 45 minutes of half decent football in his spell with us.

Will always be fond of Mpenza and badge kissing celebrations.

My favourite awayday that season. That pass from Elano for the third goal was a peach.

I was at the Newcastle and Middlesbrough away games. Very tense but Emile came good those games.

He was a bit shit though.
