[Archived] Andy Cole

[sumps]

When was Cole sold? Was it before Souness was meant to have contacted other clubs, August 8th if I remember right? If this is true and Cole was sold after this, then I see it as a mistake on the clubs behalf and should have stopped Souness letting players leave the club and bringing more players in.

Eh? You suggesting Souey was trying to organise a move away from the club for himself in advance of Newcastle getting their (5th choice) man?

Or am I missing something?

[sumps]

No. I meant that if the club new that Souness was talking to other clubs, then he was obviously looking to move on. Therefore they should have not let Souness bring in and definatly should not have let him sell players like Cole.

[Modi]

So... according to that ("the club new [sic] that Souness was talking to other clubs") he was organising a move away from the club?

Where does this information come from?

[sumps]

I'm not saying it was true, I read it on here around the time Souness went, can't remember who said it. All I'm saying is that if it was true then the club have made a mistake.

How we need cole now, souness did a really bad decision releasing him to fulham. Hes scored 3or 4 for them already.

[roversmum]

As he did for us when he came.

He'll soon be back to his old self, don't worry. Wait until the wife starts laying down the law about something.

Didn't you just love the fight yesterday?

Looks like Andy Cole will hve plenty of time for shopping with the wife. He is facing charges which will add up to an eight match ban. Plus Fulham face a £100K fine for not controlling their players.

Be fair on him philip

It's coming up to the time of year for his post red card annual skive to Dubai

You know, the one where he shows how bothered he is about his team mates and the club who pay his wages

According to the Daily Telegraph today Andy Cole has had his 3-match suspension reduced to 1 after an appeal-he has already served the 3-game ban for his dismissal, but the FA's appeal body has reduced the extra ban by withdrawing the ban for violent conduct and halving the suspension for abusing a match official.

thoughts on our returning hero

"He hits the ball and scores a goal"

After about 5 chances

Who says hes signed then? other than the mirror of course

[greggyk]

Its Cole, its Cole, Andy Andy Cole-he gets the ball and does fu9k all, Andy Andy Cole,

He done well for us but there really is no need for a 34 year old past it striker.He was total balls in the 2nd part of the season for Fulham.

A step back IF he signs

Cole was injured for the 2nd half of last season.

Can't believe he is coming back! Sparky obiously can't be bothered to look around for other potential acquistions...

[greggyk]

Not for 5 months John!!

Now, if Hughes thinks Kuqi and Cole will solve our goalscoring problems, he really needs to think again.We still have maybe the worst set of strikers in the league(apart from West Ham and Sunderland)

still got 12 goals.

[Flopsy]

to be fair to Mr Cole - if Shearer's still going at his present age of 80 im sure Cole can get another couple of years out of him. Its not as if he ever tires himself out on the pitch

[greggyk]

Shearer got 7 league goals last season. He's sadly also past it

That's rubbish, He's not as quick as he used to be. But he'd walk into any team outside the top 4.

He's still a class act. I think it's harsh to say he's past it. He won't allow himself to be past it, he'll retire before that happens.

If we resign him I'm gonna take up supporting West Ham full time followed by Chelsea part time.
