My trip to the gym

[southend4ever]

First of all Michael Ricketts turned up before all the other players to work on his calfs. He seems keen as mustard and wants to work his way back up he says. He is currently staying in a hotel, I was half tempted to offer him a room. looks like he is keen to impress and doesn't look as big as a picture on the back of the echo from him at gloucester park would suggest.

2nd of all, I think I may have lost my marbles again here. either it is a youth team player or a trialist or even potential signing. 5ft 8ish black and with those thick dreadlocks that are tied back to the head. anyone know who this is. sorry with hair description.

lastly, bit more fun, on leaving the club, i heard tilly say,

"I spoke to him earlier, I can't believe it(sounding quite excited then walking away as not to be heard)"

so what can't he believe?

it's not butter
we've signed wayne rooney on a free transfer
jay smith has returned from injury
fossetts farm has got the go ahead

.... anyway...

I can't believe it - that Southend4ever bloke is eavesdropping on my conversation again

 

[J]

"look at me, i go to the same gym as god"

I reckon you can read into that Billy Sharp is signing tomorrow.

Its obvious.

Apart from the vagueness and pure blind hope on my part....

 

[southend4ever]

haha good banter,

dave will look on the site now and let you know.

cs j, to be fair it is a bit of an advance warning that some of his powers may rub off on me. and yes i do go to the same gym as GOD. but i was wearing my essex II's hat from cricket so obviously they wanted my autograph NOT!

but more suggestions of what he can't believe are needed.

oh and leeboy :P i am still trying to get your number :P

Karl Hawley has/had hair like that and looks youngish - bit of a wild stab in the woods though.

As for what he couldnt believe, my money is on his ugly mate getting a date.....what we are forgetting is it could have been a personal call.

we're not! that is why i said it's not butter!

 

[southend4ever]

it was about 5 thick bunches with gaps in the middle not karl hawley. probably a youth team player.

my two bob stories are boring i wish they had more meaning and purpose to them.

the best part is just that ricketts is pumped and is determined to get back to his best.

 

[Shrimpbizkit]

He cant believe Didi Hamann has changed his mind again and decided to join us.

 

[Dreams]

He can't believe that Tes Bramble used a two syllable word?!!!!

 

[Mr. Benedict]

Ignoring all the speculation and stuff...

It's good to see Ricketts eager to get fit again....

 

[Stats]

He cant believe that Matthew Driver has agreed to sign a 1yr extension with the club

Last time we saw Ricketts back to his best, he terroried the like of ManU, Liverpool, Arsenal & Chelsea! I can see us finish in mid-table, 10 or more points clear off relegation at end of season. Every reason to get behind Rickett as he try to get his "Bolton" forms back!

Have you got the right thread? that could be under "player on trial" as well!
