Mouyokolo and the Perrier-Doumbe path to immortality

768

Steven Mouyokolo’s last two permanent contracts were for clubs playing Premier League football in England but after joining Hull City as a 22-year-old and making 21 appearances in their relegation season, his move to Wolves bombed amid a multitude of injuries.  The player has made four appearances for Wolves and four for Sochaux in the last three years.

He no longer has the profile which would be considered in the English Premier League; which is why he’s pitched up in Scotland.  If his knee passes a medical this week, he’ll become the latest 6’3” defender on the Celtic books, competition for Kelvin, Virgil, Charlie, Efe and the rest.

Competition is good but Steven’s chances of edging out the competition to become a first team regular must be considered slight with his injury record, whether he passes the medical or not.  It’s more likely he’ll follow the path of Jean-Joel Perrier-Doumbe, although Champions League football and a Cup Final winner is not a bad return.

  1. Going for the ole Arsenal to win the Bloated PL, my usual £10 bet will come in one of these days. ;)

    It is always a Blame game, leave the fish alone. Can you imagine fish swimming in Ouzo?

     

     

    Even I could catch a fish then.

    You would be left floundering like a fish out of water.

    I hope that when Wanyama and Hooper leave we don’t automatically think we need to spend a fortune on replacement.

    well said, we have a squad of very good young players needing their opportunity to shine. we have enough players and adding more will only hamper the development of others in our squad, even if hooper and victor leave this summer.

    You again?

     

     

    Of course the full quotation from Alex Salmond is:

     

     

    “One of the reasons Scotland didn’t take to Lady Thatcher was because of that. We didn’t mind the economic side so much. But we didn’t like the social side at all.”

     

     

    Which means ONE reason of many and plenty people did mind the economic policy but not as many as minded the impact of her social policies which is accurate.

     

     

    As for your mind reading as to the disposition of old Tory voters who now (maybe) vote SNP (constituencies don’t have the same people living in them forever, it’s too easy to make that claim).

     

     

    A No vote is a Tory vote, a UKIP vote, a leaving the EU vote, an eventual war somewhere under Washington orders, a Trident vote, a Bedroom tax vote, a Red Tory vote (because they’ve admitted they’ll follow the Tory plans) – they play to the south of England because that is who now elects every UK government, an eventual removal of the NHS as we know it vote, an eventual top up fees for our young people at University and the erosion of public services vote and the removal of the Scottish parliament vote (it can be done you know).

     

     

    ALL of those reasons listed above are good enough for me to say Vote YES to avoid as many of them as possible and remove quite a few for sure like more boys dying in wars coming back with a Union Jack draped over them because Dulce et decorum est Pro Patria mori.

     

     

    All I’m going to say to you is if you vote no and even a third of what I listed above remains or gets worse do not DARE complain about it – you voted for it.

     

     

    If I read anyone on here or elsewhere moaning after a No vote in 2015, 2017, 2020 or beyond they will be reminded every single time – YOU VOTED FOR THIS, you have no right to complain.

     

     

    If you believe Miliband, Balls and Lamont are going to do anything to reverse or change Tory policy you are deluded in the extreme and if you think Miliband is a leader, good luck with that.

     

     

    Stop telling people that Scotland is going to turn into a hellhole with Independence, it’s going to get worse within the Union for Scotland – it is no Panacea as it stands but it will get worse. The country’s resources will be used up eventually and then they’ll give Scotland Indpendence because they’ll ask the English electorate who’ll see us or more likely generations to some as they increasingly are now – Subsidy Junkies. That may be hyperbole but it’s no less plausible than the constant lies and scaremongering from Bitter Together or Project FEAR as it really is.

     

     

    One lie too far came out this week about roaming charges in England for Scots with mobiles in England. The EU is abolishing it next year but wanna bet those roaming charges might come in in a UK outside the EU? You’d get odds on that somewhere.

     

     

    Vote No and that is what you vote for.

     

     

    And let’s not make this about the SNP.

     

     

    Google :

     

     

    Labour for Independence

     

    Liberals for Independence

     

    Women for Independence

     

    Radical Independence

     

    The Jacobite Party

     

    The Scottish Greens

     

    The SSP

     

    and many others.

     

     

    It isn’t a party political issue.

     

     

    Who knows what kind of Government we’d get in 2016 – a coalition one? We can’t know.

     

     

    In an Independent Scotland I believe the true good guys in the Labour party can come to the fore and be worth voting for again simply because they won’t be following orders from the London office.

     

     

    At present if the Labour party want the Scottish vote to help them win the General election then it’s about the party and not the people they purport to represent and certainly not the people of Scotland regardless of their background.

     

     

    Just remember this is the party who lied to us about the oil and suppressed the truth to keep hold of power and as a result of their actions we have 1 child in 4 living in poverty in Scotland indirectly if not directly because of those actions. Their actions let Thatcher in, not the SNP’s. That oil fund that was going to get set up by the Westminster parties – never happened. We could have been like Norway but we’re a “region” of the UK. It disgusts me.

     

     

    The McCrone report stated there would be an embarrassing surplus of oil and we’d have had the hardest currency in Europe with Independence and yet we’re living in a Scotland where Glasgow has the highest Knife crime rates and some people don’t reach the age of 55 in the East end not far from Celtic park.

     

     

    Better together?

     

     

    For who exactly?

     

     

    As I say, it’s your choice but don’t even attempt to complain when (not if) it goes the other way.

     

     

    Remember Lamont and the “Something for nothing” society”. To paraphrase Owen Jones, she sounds like a Tory MP seeing as you like quotations.

    You know I generally disagree with your opinion on independence.

     

     

    However that post should be more widely read-I still disagree with most of it though,haha!

     

     

    There is a new article,mate.

     

     

    Put it there!
