So we would have paid him £1.82m in wages over the period of his contract.soapboxsam said:Because of the 5 year contract signed when we were in the Championship. Igor is our top earners on 7K a week (heard this from different folk) which sounds plausible
66 appearances and 12 goals.

Afternoon officer and how did you acquire this police tape for social use?Dazzler21 said:Ah okay. So we think he's going to drop a fabric strip that hasn't been used since the 1960's on his toe injuring him for life.
We just used electrical tape or black and yellow police tape as our kit was yellow and black.

My response was a joke based upon the age of the saying and that I had NEVER heard it before.stonemuse said:

Fortunately our CB was a Police Officer as was our coach... Both arrogant knobs but the CB was a right nasty piece of work. He broke my nose at a party for stopping him fight the host... It was mentioned on here I think about 8-10 years ago!RedChaser said:

The other worked in anti terrorism, so now and then we'd get cooler tapes like SO19, Explosive, Corrosive etc.4 - Sponsored links:

LOL. Brings back memories. I was running a boys team at that time. Bought them all numbered tie-ups. Worth a goal start as it demoralized other teams facing such a "professional" outfit.No.1 in South London said:

Harsh. He missed two years of his short career because CAFC mismanaged his injury. Was one of the most feared strikers in the Championship at one time. Can't see why Bows doesn't give him short game time to help his fitness. Do our crocks not cross-train?Dazzler21 said:

That's why I love your posts Oggy, you really are an eternal optimist!Oggy Red said:I'm not going to try and be judge and jury over whether Igor can have any impact this year.
He's been desperately unlucky with the 2 injuries this season, and even when he was fit in between,
he was kept out by our inform goalscoring duo.
He's an experienced player, capable and can finish.
Once he's fit, he may well have an important part to play in the run in games.1 -
Pearce?2

I am a big Igor fan and think he probably can still do it at this level of he stays fit.0 -
I don’t think Igor is the answer when looking for a replacement for Grant.
We need someone with pace.
How many penalties has Grant won this season?0 -

If we go back to calling him Ventokele we can pretend he's a new signing4

Ready made excuse for only signing one more player.1

AsphyxiationAlwaysneil said:I like Vetokele but he’s been very I forubate with injuries and a then poor injury management since he joined us.
I’ve not been certain his heart is really in it ever since his first serious injury in the championship.
He did look pretty good at sint Truiden in the Belgian top (pub) League before getting injured again.
I do hope he regains fitness and form and fires us into the championship but I am also not going to hold my breath as that would end badly.1 -
Surprised he's playing in a "proper" match so soon, but a positive sign that his shoulder must be strong enough for contactDessieValley said:Vetokele starting for the U23s today.

I hope it's a home match !1 -
The original Igor had just as much pace as Karlan. Karlan though also seemed to fill out a bit this year and became able to outmuscle as well as outrun defenders. That has never been true of Igor, so to that extent he and Taylor would have to work in a different way. But a fully fit and (in time) confident Igor would be well worth trying for.Valley11 said:I don’t think Igor is the answer when looking for a replacement for Grant.

I'm not sure he's looked sharp since 2014 when we first signed him...PragueAddick said:

Extremely surprised he is playing today, I was expecting him to be involved next Monday. Even more so that Bows said they’re giving him a mini pre-season.
Possibly get an hour into him today and see how he reacts. I don’t think he’d be involved as soon as Saturday, that would surprise me.2 -
Igor often played on his own upfront, and gave as good as he got with two big lumps.PragueAddick said:
