Worst team to buy players from

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Wigan. Although that may be skewed by a certain period in the clubs history.

Alcaraz, ffs.

 

[ClausThomsen]

We would have got relagated if it wasn’t for a striker we signed from a Turkish side.

I can just imagine Allardyce claiming that with a straight face.

 

[Toast]

Quite correct.

Although it was due to a bizarre racist tirade from the Fenabache chairman calling him a "discoloured cannibal" that drove Super Kev into out welcoming goal starved arms.

Great player, absolutely lovely guy and a proper Blue.

But the Yobo sagas were longer and more depressing than Stalingrad. I maintain my stance.

Could have just posted a pic of Cenk there TBF..

Even his painted on hair doesn't amuse me anymore.

He's like a one night stand who keeps turning up in your local.

Turns out that was nonsense according to Campbell. Trabzonspor not Fenerbahce btw.

They hit a poor run of form and the chairman said something that roughly translated as Campbell would "eat the players". According to Campbell it was a Turkish phrase meaning to get angry and really get stuck into them. But that wasn't quite the sensational news story that a racist tirade was.

It's in the UndrTheCosh podcast where Campbell talks about it.

Ah fair enough, my apologies to Fenebache, a great bunch of lads.

In my defence despite having Google at my fingertips i instead chose to rely on my memory of an event which happened over 20 years ago.

Cenk hasn't had so much of a morsel of a player ffs.

I was exactly the same until I listened to that podcast a while back. The British media just ran with the sensationalist story apparently and it's not like those of us reading had much else to go on regarding events in Turkey.

Can any Turkish blues confirm this is a standard footy saying in Turkey?

I want to use it more in conversation.

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Leighton Baines?

It's 4-1. Alcatraz, Kone, Mccarthy, Robles to one Baines.

Edit: tbf McCarthy and Joel weren't that bad really.
