thought he looked very good today and most of their attacking play came through him. Gid rid of the overrated Thomas for a couple of mill and bring him in for a fraction of that and we'll be better off. Thomas, all tricks and fancy step overs and no end product.

    Hoolihan was superb but I'm sure there are some premier league sides interested in him.

    My first proper girlfriend was Joanne Hoolihan, in 1982.

    wouldn't like to speculate for Joanne Peakie, but Wes certainly floated my boat today ;-)

    'Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine? No, but I do it anyway because it's sterile and I like the taste.'

    Thought 'Dodgeball' was going to be poor but was funny, especially Patches!

    Not as far as I can remember. Not a local girl, she was in the boarding part of my school. Parents in the Army.
    "The Lodge" was quite a place in those days........

    I've just logged on to post the same thing but Largeaddick beat me to it.

    Thought he looked absolute quality.

    Agreed, he was excellent again today. Not only skilfull, but just wouldn't accept defeat; even at 4-1 he was a constant menace. I wasn't quite sure where he'd slot in, but fair point Large, re. Thomas. Hopefully he's see CAFC as a realistic step up.

    Got himself booked for a spot of petulance, though.

    Maybe that just shows he plays with passion.....?

    I think Youga (excellent again) probably had a couple of nibbles at him that the East Stand lino failed to spot before he was pulled up for a minor indiscretion so he lost his rag. Good to see how well Singh handled it though (and the game in general), as Hoolihan then accepted his offence and apologised. Certainly agree he was passionate; skilfull but also worked his butt off right across the middle.

    Agreed, Hoolihan had a great game despite being on the end of a 4-1 scoreline.

    Sign him up Pards :)

    I think we missed the boat we should have signed him in the summer he has added at least a million to his price.

    Was saying to the guys around me that he reminded me a bit of Johnny Robinson and then got himself booked in typical Robbo fashion...... Would like to see him a The Valley. V impressed

    Hoolihan = the original Hooligans. Big Irish/london family lived in Lambeth a real nitemare ASBO mob oftheir day. "Hooligan" comes from the SARF london acsent on Hooilihan. Not many people know that !! used to tell that to a very "up her self" Director of sales and marketing who had the same surname.

    Its being reported on some Blackpool fan sites that we've signed him. Clearly not a confirmed source but if true, it's excellent news.

    Bing, i'd hold fire for now. That post on there didn't look anymore than a wind up.

    I know we are keen, but i also know a great deal of other clubs are as well. Lets wait and see.

    That would be good news if true!

    I thought he looked very good home and away - possibly the best player on the pitch when we beat them at the Valley.

    Just the sort of player we need in the middle of the pitch.

    Yeah, I read it two ways to be honest. Oh well as there's nothing else happening much, we can but dream.

    Cheap Reidy I reckon - I like what I have heard about him.

    I wonder if he has a video on YouTube.......

    I decided I liked this fella when watching the Blackpool Oldham play off game. Totally ran the show, another I'm a bit suprised noone picked up on was Ivan Sproule at Bristol City. He was the nuts at Hibs and I thought would get a big move.
