Zamora and Schwarzer press conferences

Here is Bobby Zamora.  Sounds like he’ll fit in well.   Good stuff.

Here’s Mark Schwarzer’s talk.   Seems like a good bloke.

The Third Man

Things worth visiting:

Rob’s moved his blog.  Looks very good.   I might have to smarten up.   When I was growing up we lived next door to a man named Bill.  Whenever Dad painted our garage door, Bill would paint his, in a strange attempt at garage door oneupmanship.   Anyway, now I think about this and wonder.   I might need to Go Bill and try to keep as smart as Rob!

Twohundredpercent’s kit roundup for next season.  Part 1 and Part 2.   As usual, great stuff.

I forgot to mention Fredrik Stoor earlier on.  That deal is supposedly close to being completed.  If we think about what Roy said the other day, he wants up to three more players.  Stoor would be one.  Simunic said he’d be thinking about things about now, so maybe he’s a second, which just leaves us with a mysterious third man.  How exciting.

The wisdom of Paintsil

Sky Sports says that our new players “insist they did the right thing moving to the club”.

Well, why wouldn’t they have done the right thing?  What’s changed?

There’s some fluff from Schwarzer and Gera, then John Paintsil chimes in:

It is important to make fans happy, and the club – the club is important for me now – I can see us in the Champions League or Uefa Cup, that is what I am thinking about

Good man.  I’m not sure what Roy’s been saying to him, but good man.
