The Bury summer signing uberthread. WARNING - Contains tinpot material

[King Kev]

Add that to the promotion you won Bury last season DESPITE not even being at the club. It was your core of players, Cameron, Soares, Mayor who made the difference ... another sublime achievement.

Depends whose view you wish to believe

Support liason officer who thinks Shirtliff was a fantastic manager.
Shaker Ryan who believes alcohol and cigs should be banned as he's never touched either
Scales of Bullshit who once played in goal in an amateur cup final which means he is the greatest goalkeeper of all time.

Then there is Martin Allen who practically placed all the credit for Barnet's promotion on my shoulders. Facts are facts. Thanks for the ongoing support Howard, I should be in the Knowsley saturday but if the infamous sex pest is going to be there then I won't bring my daughter.

You two are fucking weird.

 

[stevie_howard]

Not travelling Kev, rumours of the game in doubt due to flooding in MRE. Will be travelling to Oldham instead.

 

[King Kev]

You two are fucking weird.

Someone is obviously still bitter about my managerial masterclass at Deepdale in 2006 play off semi final.

 

[King Kev]

Not travelling Kev, rumours of the game in doubt due to flooding in MRE. Will be travelling to Oldham instead.

Ahhh very disappointing, I'll ensure that I am at Oldham as well in that case.

 

[King Kev]

Speaking of Oldham and masterclass Howard do you remember my masterclass at Boundary Park in November 2012? What a result that was and a great performance. Remember walking to the away end punching my fist in the air at full time to celebrate a great win. Fans roared at me in celebration and chucked bouquets of flowers onto the pitch.
What a night that was apart from for a group of unfortunate fans who had pre ordered taxis back to Bury but as I recall the police told them they were not allowed to get the taxis back to Bury and stopped them and made them wait for more taxis. This deprived them of valuable drinking time. I actually constructed a letter of complaint to GMP after that but received no reply.

Pathetic!

 

[stevie_howard]

Ah yes ... the taxis were across the road if I remember rightly ... but we were unable to use them. Then there was the copper and the smoking near the petrol station situation.

 

[King Kev]

Thats the one, I will be at Oldham away so we will be able to discuss the police incompetency along with my winning brand of football and my new book discussed earlier in the thread. Should be an interesting day. Wonder if Flitcroft will start one up front for the relegation six pointer at Boundary Park like he did last saturday. It will be even more stupid if he starts 37 year old Ryan Lowe on right wing.
At least when I played with one up front and played players out of position I had a justified excuse as I inherited a garbage squad and the financial crisis caused me to have to release players leaving me with a sparse squad, wonder what Flitcroft's excuse is.

 

[stevie_howard]

Confirmed leave ... I will be at Oldham, Crewe and Sheff/Hull. I look forward to reminiscing over a pint (only a half of course) about your tactical masterclass in our last visit.

 

[stevie_howard]

Good to see **** central in full effect again ... a 12 fucking page fred on the 'town full of isis' chant!

 

[King Kev]

Probably the same idiots who like a friendly atmosphere at games, think opposing fans should sit together and the same fans who demanded I be sacked when for not keeping us up in 2013.
Bradford fans just wanted an excuse to kick off, mountain out of molehill springs to mind.

 

[UTS]

Are we ever gonna sign anyone

 

[King Kev]

The main problem is not lack of signings it is the manager and the truly baffling and mind numbing tactical decisions he makes and formations he plays.

 

[stevie_howard]

Well said Kev. What we would give for a man of your calibre and experience at the helm now. We certainly wouldn't be tumbling down the table at the rate we are.

 

[stevie_howard]

Are we ever gonna sign anyone

He signed another keeper last week. The 18th of his 2 year tenure.

 

[stevie_howard]

Where are you planning for a pre match shandy Kev? I'm unsure as to whether to stick to Bury with a late taxi, Heywood and ditto, Middleton and ditto, a combo of the three, or Manchester and taxi.

 

[King Kev]

Literally can't decide. Was originally saying Bury and then taxi to Oldham but only likely to be 5 of us and 2 live in town and they are now suggesting town then met. If a few of you are talking about being in Mid, Bury or heywood then I'd be tempted to back that. I've asked the sex pest to PM as well on my fan page to see what his plans are. If we got a met from town we could pre ring taxis en route to take us to the Rifle Range then pre ring taxis after the game to take us back to Bury. What do you think?

 

[King Kev]

Wonder if Mr Supporter Liason officer will be sat in the home end on saturday now that his hero Peter Shirtliff has been appointed as assistant manager of Oldham

 

[stevie_howard]

So out of the cup with a wimper (wouldn't have happened on Kev's watch), the attention turns to transfer deadline day ... will Fatcroft feel the need for a panic signing?

Made a speech on my fan page (don't know if you saw it) but I was basically saying that we need to move on as the most important thing is staying in league one now. The next three games are lost without a ball being kicked and then Colchester at home will be a draw at best, we are in serious serious trouble.

 

[Shrimpurh]

Worrall today I reckon

 

[stevie_howard]

Things are not looking good ... apart from the 33/1 odds on relegation still available. Like printing money.

 

[stevie_howard]

It won't be 33/1 now!

 

[stevie_howard]

Are you going to Coventry Kev?

 

[King Kev]

I am indeed travelling to Coventry. I have a book signing at Waterstones then into Cov for some shandy.
A supporter asked the question on my fan page and ill quote it - 'Why I am even bothering to turn up is beyond me. I am expecting at least three players to be played out of position, the useless Pugh to start and three dreadful substitutions. Cov are in poor form but will end their run on saturday absolutely no doubt about it. I am putting a bet on 5-0 Coventry just to ease the pain. Saturday's defeat will make it 11 defeats, 4 wins and 3 draws from the last 18 games. Pathetic!'

 

[stevie_howard]

If you are travelling with the Kong I'll see you. Can I get a signed photo?

In other news .. it seems the residents over at **** central have awoken with page after page suddenly calling for Flitcroft and Day's heads. Oh the irony that these same mongs bullied the chairman into sacking the best manager in our history.

King Kev ... better football ... saving lives.

 

[stevie_howard]

Shaker Ryan confidently predicts that Coventry is a great chance to get back on track before going on to predict a fucking DRAW. You couldn't make it up.

 

[King Kev]

Twenty something year old virgin Shaker Ryan who says Fenton was a terrible owner and I was a bad manager but then thinks DF and Day are the best things since sliced bread. He makes the sex pest seem intelligent .
5-0 Cov tomorrow, I'll see you on the 10:20/10:30 train (can't remember which one it is) will allow no more than one shandy drunk in my presence otherwise I'll complain to the train staff.

 

[King Kev]

Well I very nearly called it. Worst thing about yesterday was that up until getting to the ground I was actually enjoying the day.
I see the thick bastards Shaker Ryan is still defending Flitcroft, just a few tactical tweeks he says. That kid is seriously thick.

 

[stevie_howard]

Getting that close to the scoreline shows what a great tactical genius you are Kev. The noose must be tightening now?
