Superjack Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I have alluded on this thread to a few reservations about this signing... ...but at the end of the day... 1) I can't deny Mr.James' qualities (both as a player and as a man). 2) I can't deny the benefit to our club's profile. We have after all been splattered all over the national media already. 3) It's impossible not to be swept along by the euphoria. 4) It's worth every penny we are paying him just to witness the happiness on this forum today. So sod it - I'm bloody delighted. Not just with the aqcuisition of Mr. James, but also the arrival of Mr. Hunt and Mr. Stewart, both of whom I believe to be fantastic signings (although today they are probably wondering if anybody cares that they have turned up).

x3widRacin Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I don't have internet at the moment, but, I had to find some when I got the text of this. Its even the top soccer story in the states. Incredible!!!! Can't wait for august 7th!!!!! 14.41 BST: Here is our report on David James' move to Bristol City. It is an unfolding story, so we will be bringing you more as we get it. Let us know your thoughts using the comments form below. 14.31 BST: BREAKING NEWS! The current holder of England's No. 1 shirt, David James, has signed for Championship club Bristol City! 14.11 BST: The website of the Daily Mirror is reporting that David James has turned down interest from Sunderland and Celtic in order to sign for Bristol City on Friday. It is an interesting move for the man who ended the World Cup as England's No. 1. By the way, was reading through the thread and found some of these posts funny: Raoul is also without a club. Why do people post this crap?! David James will not be signing for us, of that you can be 100% sure. There is no way we will sign David James. Seriously do people actually think this is championship manager???? Yeah I have. I'm sure James has too, so he'll be looking for the biigest salary he can find now he's coming to the end of his career. Are you telling me you honestly believe David James is a realistic target, or that he'd consider coming here? Don't get me wrong I think he's one of the most honurable players around these days and a genuinely nice chap, but get real ffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was laughing like I've never seen him laugh before as he said: "Ha, ha, You lot are supposed to be after David James aren't you? Ha, Ha, HA, HA, HA!" "Yes" I said - "He signed about an hour ago" "HA, HA, HA," he continued ......... then a few seconds later the face changed, his brow furrowed as he said "..........What?????" .........

Championship club Bristol City, England shocked when they managed to attract the team's first goalkeeper David James. After that, the club is now alleged to be on the hunt for Manchester United's Michael Owen. - It is pure fantasy. We have tried to get Rooney, Ronaldo and Messi, but they have not responded to our phone call yet, "said club manager Steve Coppell ironic to the BBC. Coppell is also suitable to drive a little extra with Owen rumor. - We talked with Michael Owen on to fly him in by helicopter, but it has not led to anything yet. / Patrik Sjögren Keywords: Manchester United, Bristol City Michael Owen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
