Peter Crouch

[Oxford Aesthete]

Just heard we are getting him on loan until the end of the season

 

[Manorman]

And you heard this from?

 

[Oldham]

Sounds like a tall story to me...

 

[yellowbow]

That’s a tall story..


Note: I will keep trundling this gag out whenever stories linking us to Peter Crouch are posted..

Edit - Agh - beat me to it oldham! ?

I’m too long in the tooth to fall for that one YB ?

The ticket man at my local train station

I don’t believe it for a minute, however I do know that he is best friends with Sean Derry.

QPR connection?

Won’t happen anyway. He’s too busy with his podcast these days!

 

[Oldham]

He’s always looked down on us anyway

 

[Junior_1]

Let’s hope stoke will paying all the wage as even with a minor contribution from us, he will still be comfortably out top earner!

 

[uptheus]

Please no.

 

[yellowbow]

All joking apart, haven’t we all learnt - Robinson and Tiger included - that ‘name’ players in decline aren’t going to be the answer to our problems?!

 

[yellowbow]

I wouldn’t be at all surprised that if this was to happen, a ‘deal’ has been done where Crouch could avoid training so that he can concentrate on his media work and podcasts. In Tigers deluded world he probably thinks the supporters will be completely won over by ‘The great Peter Crouch’ strolling around the football pitch for 60 mins every couple of weeks.

Another ‘Wow!’ moment...

 

[greatunclekip]

HHahaha! I love these rumours.

 

[bazzer9461]

And I suppose he will choose when he wants to play ala Dave kitson and that won’t be classed as a tall story although with Kitson it was more or less nailed on

 

[uptheus]

HHahaha! I love these rumours.

If it were true would you like him here kip? e.g. would he be the answers to our prayers?

 

[Itsthehopethatkillsyou]

Experience.... One for the young players can look up to... etc etc)

 

[RCYellowRC]

37 year Old Crouch 33 year Old Jamie Mackie. Our strike force would be a combined age of 70...

 

[n1]

I actually think this would be a good move - if there's actually anything in it. Would need to be supplemented with another Striker who has different attributes though. A bit of pace and power wouldn't go amiss.

Nope. We need a good quality League 1 striker. Or top end League 2 striker. No more publicity pieces or foreign punts. We need to cough up for the one player who could save us.

Cyrille Regis and Simon Garner were at least, what...twice that? When they tore us a new one circa 1994-5.

To be fair, the pace of games and athleticism have moved on a fair bit now. Even big boy Mickey Quinn used to score goals back then! ?

If this were true and I doubt it is then I think he would be ideal for the way we play. Play it into crouch with Henry, Whyte and Graham all able to play off him. Also we will finally have someone who can get on the end of crosses.

Crouch and stockley what a combo aka hamilton and aldridge

Erm, maybe Kevin Francis and Nicky Banger...

 

[Sarge]

Crouch on loan? ....as we've been awaiting a striker who knows where the goal is for long (!) Enough, why not?

 

[Oldman159]

Perhaps it was an instruction someone overheard on the training ground ....added 2&2 and got 5.


I.e. :

PETER! ---- crouch.

The question is would one want to come here?
