We were in for Phil "The Face" Jones....

[ali benarbia's studs]

I think @kippax4ever meant scrotes.

yeah big difference between Socrates and scrotes

He was permanently pissed!

And don't get me started on Heidegger. A right boozy beggar, he was.

I hope you’ve not forgotten Wittgenstein. The beery swine!

The M.E.N. had him marked as The new Duncan Edwards, the things they say to sell papers.The next Norman Wisdom would have been closer.

Think they meant Duncan Norvelle.

... back in 2011....


Gutted we seemingly missed out on him.

He looked a decent prospect at Blackburn but I always thought Samba was the better player of that partnership. Turns out they were both shit signings.

Vinnie isn't. He'd ne'er have got a game had we landed Beaker!

What was the job offer Phil? Sucking farts out of rump roasts? Fuck off.

I just don't know where we could have used him. I think he would have struggled with those security wands and ended up shoving it up the nearest arse - probably Gary Nutter's when Sky were televising another of those games that despite scoring more goals than the oppos the Sky commentary would leave most believing we'd lost.

Yes, one's the coarsest and the others are escorts in corsets

 

[halfmist]

If all the other clubs were in for him then surely the headline should have been... Manchester United Fucked Up My Career.

He reminds me of them United defenders of the past who were always on the fringes of international duty. Pallister, Bruce, Smalling, May etc, except the first two were ten times better and May being about the same standard
