I think you'll find that would be the other way around.

Griff consults with nobody

Typical Jets fan, always looking at the cloud instead of the silver lining. Bloke has never lost a game and his work in midfield has meant we have never conceded either. Top bloke. Sign him up, Ernie.

I have genuine concerns about crowd levels coming to see him play. It just hasn't brought fans to the stands.

9:42 AM - and not a single post since - clearly an inspiring signing that has the fans salivating!

Think the discussion was in another thread to be fair.

[GazFish35]

good point.
don't bring logic to this debate though.

As always the foz posters are researching and gathering information, bouncing ideas off peers and loved ones, formulating the best way to express their views and making sure all spelling and grammar is correct.

Only then will we see the rational, honest, polite debate that usually occurs on these here pages.

[sorefootballer]

[turbojetfireV8]

the massive signing was Topper, it's all downhill from here on in...

[hawk]

Cool. Ill be hanging on next week.

Yes, Topper is good. Who's joining TT's?

[plague]

Massive announcement coming next week apparently we've sold Topor to China.

[turbojetfireV8]

does that mean we've bought his younger lesser known (aka less talented) brother instead?

I do like the clock stop idea but not sure if anyone below the top divisions can administer it.

Maybe we should stick to scoring goals in the 1st 30mins then you wouldnt have to worry about the end.

Dribbling from free kicks seems like a good idea for the attacking team but isn't that what the advantage rule kind of is anyway?

Also refs would be under huge pressure to make sure the free kicks are taken from the spot of the foul as attacking teams would get too big an advantage.

Also on the 'goal kicks don't have to go out of the area' one, does that mean defenders can now come into the box?
