Just been speaking to a manc mate. His mate is best mates with Weaver. He said Weaver is as fit as he has ever been, raring to go and is one of the nicest people you could ever meet.
Not sure about the last bit - ha - but it does sounds more positive now.
Gotta give him a chance. He will be our no. 1 keeper i think.
not sure if anyone's mentioned it but when weaver got all that banter sung at him last season i thought he took it really well (think he gave a thumbs up at the end of the game) and for me anyone who can give it and receive in the same manner as weaver did (oo-err miss's) is a good bloke in my opinion. in my opinion he'll prove to be our best signing , i'm positive about this one!!!

I'm not sure that's you or someone has found your password out and posting under your ID but fair play for coming out and saying it mate
I am absolutely incredulous at the ridiculous negativity surrounding Nicky Weaver, he was engaged in a bit of banter with the Covered End in a game nearly 10 years ago - I doubt he even remembers it. I doubt more than 40% of our current fan base were even at that game.
If we only signed players that the fans liked - 'cos they are nice/innoffensive/haven't been beastly to us in the past - we'd be up the creek without a paddle in no time.
[cite]Posted By: Ormiston Addick[/cite]We have signed a 28 year-old Premiership quality keeper on a free transfer whose only real fault was a bit of arrogance NEARLY TEN YEARS AGO and still people whinge.
We are in the Championship with a massively reduced budget so we are damned lucky to get a player of that quality to join us.
Who would they rather we sign, John Burridge? Peter Shilton? Get Bob Bolder back?
Weaver has already played in this division and been very successful and I am very confident he will prove to be an inspired signing.

Falls over flabbergasted!! Nah really i agree, i said it in another thread that he toook the banter well, even we told him he was a c**t! fair play to him i say.

There's only one Nicky Weaver
... one Nicky Weaver
He used to be shite, but now he's alright
Weaver has The Valley in his hands
(last line could be better ....)

Let the guy show his worth & judge him then.
Walking in a Weaver wonderland? Unoriginal I know
I was quite proud of this one...
She likes to shave her beaver
And when she's shagging Beckham
She thinks of Nicky Weaver
He play's UP FRONT!!
Not a trace of fat on his behind
He's in goal, Nicky Weaver
You couldn't beat him if you tried
Oh Nicky Wea
He plays in goal
Oh Nicky Wea he plays in goal
He's got the arse of a Rhino, Oh Nicky Wea he plays in goal...
If you listen to it backwards all of the subtle yet complex lyrics can satisfy even the most esoteric tastes.
I am liking it.
Oh Nick Weaver
He Plays in Goal
Oh Nick Weaver he plays in goal
He's got a name like a fanny
Oh Nick Weaver plays in goal
is what I assumed Carter meant.
I don't like the bloke, but worth a punt on a free, especially at 28.
Injury prone in the past but played 30 odd games last season.
good post ormy dood, i agree here fully.
