That was our opinion of the lad, Brucie. He never looked like a goalscorer.

Hope Torquay brings him better fortune and he has a better season for The Gulls.

I have seen Jarvis play for us this season, but thanks for the assumption that I haven't.

And 'eyesight' has more than one eye, but only one i (quite irrelevant, I know).. :~D

Agreed. Funny how Brucie has forgotten that he passed judgement on the team during their bad run with such a supreme 'all-knowing' opinion without having seen them.

Yes fair comment of course. Maybe Ling will get something out of him. i am really just basing my opinion of what I have seen with my own eyes - he doess not look like a natural goalscorer to me.

Wow I need to get out in the sun more? Sorry I wasn't here last night to reply as I was actually out at a BBQ in the sun and that is true brucie as crazy as that may seem. You say about Walsall's fans opinion on Jarvis well surely Ling's opinion is better than than ours and Walsall's as he has now managed him twice.

Brucie is always right. I like him.

Actually Snott sorry Scott - on the subject of getting things right its actually sombre not somber. The quote about Jarvis was tongue in cheek, because we had just signed Archie MacDougall from Reading who had been playing in the Western League.
Footbal forums are all about opinions. Everyone is right sometimes and everyone is wrong. Of course Ling proved me wrong (and I bet quite a few other people too) and good luck to him.

Take that with the Walsall fans opinion of him and that and my assessment of him is probably more accurate than yours because you have never seen him play.
A few people need to lighten up a bit and not take everything to heart. Its far too easy to be wound up.
As for gambling god - no, but I do actually make consistent money from it.
Actually not as much as some - you would be suprised what some people are making out of Betfair. But Cheltenham were a gilt edged lay yesterday @ 3.15 before the game. Their price was actually short due to their comprehensive victory over us in the semi (scoreline at least) so easy to trade tem out for a big profit once thei first goal went in.
Actually I use a correct score method to make decent money on betfair. Its not my method but was taught to me by a full time betfair trader.

Anyway Crewe 2 Cheltenham 0 - I did tell you all that Cheltenham had no chance. Mohammed and the other diving litle runt on the other wing are actually a pair of headless chickens. Bet Yates most have choked on his chewing gum.
Still hate to say it again but I'm right again

Sadly, you were telling us something we all knew and agreed with. Crewe were a vastly superior side and we all knew it, hardly a ground breaking prediction. That's a little like me claiming to be a gambling God because I had £10 @ 7/1 on Powell to score first and Crewe to win.

Make a bIg call, tell us Bodin is on his way (rather than the 99.9% option of telling us the he's not), tell us that Olejnik is going to United for £5,000,000, tell us anything that isn't blatantly obvious, make it impressive.

Matt.

Not quite Brucie - it was on the same thread, and only two pages back at the time.

Nice, mature comeback though - snotty...must have taken you a long time thinking up that little beauty.

Funny how you are posting again, given the rather somber end to the season....you were nowhere to be seen when you were proven wrong....convinced we were going to be in a relegation battle at the start of the season and, suddenly, when Ling pulls rabbit after rabbit out of the hat you go scurrying off, only really surfacing when we lose a game (which meant we had rather a nice season with you somewhat disappearing from the board for long periods of the year).

Face it Terry, you love it when we lose as it means you can unleash all of your negative energy onto this board.

You mean this one Scott?

Brucie's meds must have run out again today. :~D

Haha yeah just read back on this too!! Totally contradicting himself, plonker!!

brucie wrote:Right again - Jarvis signed. No doubt we have beaten off competition from the likes of Tiverton and Witheridge for his services.
He is a bit like an Atieno without the pace and likely to score less goals. With a rosta of Yeoman,Jarvis and Howe lets all pray that Howe stays fit or we will actually have to play one of the other two!

I guess you have changed the opinion of him that you had on page three of this thread then....
