  1. BBC quoting a police source saying 100 dead at the Bataclan concert hall - BBC coverage tends to hold back (more than Sky anyway) so this seems likely to be true.[/quote

    That's confirmed now. They are saying the 2 terrorists were throwing grenades at the hostages so the police stormed in and shot them.

    Its so unreal it's like something from a film.

  2. It would be great if something was done whether that was one wreath laid or lots of wreaths from different clubs,groups etc.I also wonder if there is a way that the sunshine appeal could donate to say a veterans hospital or a rehabilitation centre down there aswell as to the kids.

    That would be some sight. Wreaths from all different TAs laid somewhere at Tsquare

  3. I'm guessing the premiership managers and their scouts know better than anyone on this message board - they can't all be wrong - that's why he is still where he is.

    As for getting a chance - I'm assuming starchan is in agreement with the above mentioned.

    I would love to be proved wrong, but I won't.

  4. I think they'd take a punt for 5-6 mil, but 12+ is too much to ask for a guy who's never played in the premier league. compare danny ings who went to liverpool for 9, wasnt it? his club has priced him out of the market at the moment. He's a bit silly for having signed a deal until 2019.. but there's not much he can do now except score goals, which is exactly what he's doing.

    That's the thing though. £12 million for a young goal scorer isn't expensive for a premiership club. If he is only worth say £6 million that's why he is still where he is and doesn't get a shout before our other strikers?

  5. I was one who was always screaming for him to get a chance but Strachan doesn't see him as being better than what we have.

    What's worse though is no premiership manager is willing to take a punt on him. Every transfer window I keep thinking they all can't be wrong?

  6. I was desperate for England to keep hodgson after the laugh they gave me last summer.

    Was laughing even more when they did.

    But it has paid to off for them. All his players wanted him and to be fair our squad are back to wanting to play again.

    That's huge in international football so I say learn from our mistakes and hopefully we keep progressing under Strachan
