Norwegian sources say that Drillo has been told to “name his price” for Knut Haraldson, you know the 22 year old CB who’s taller than Canary Wharf. Now, Drillo has been dropping hints about getting “one, maybe two” new CBs in, so this means that the Perry deal to the cocks is back on –
Drillo has officially arrived. Need I say more? Oh, suppose I ought to…..Sky Sports did an exclusive interview with him this evening as he arrived at Heathrow. He looked a little nervous of the media (Norwegian sources suggest that this is normal), though he looked calm and collected despite the fact that the interviewer was
SW19 note : I got a bit of legitimate stick from WFC (especially Sharon Sillitoe) over this. From what I remember, I didn’t give her much of a chance to reply, and it was more or less out of her hands, supposedly. To this day, I still blame the ineptness of WFC’s marketing as part
Bit of an exclusive, ie everyone seemed to miss it, or nobody has mentioned it (except CNN and SW19′s ARMY of course). The General Secretary of UEFA, Gerhard Aigner, has reportedly said that there are too many “internationals” (ie foreigners) playing in the various Euro leagues, and despite the problems with “free borders”, he’s discussed

According to Teamtalk, Drillo has already made his first signing, for about £400,000. He’s a centre-back called Frederick Kjolner (spelling mistakes notwithstanding), he’s 6ft 4 and even though he’ll be poorly paid by Premiership standards he’ll still get much more than he ever got at Valarenga. Our sort of player, in fact. It seems as
Right, bearing in mind I’ve only just started doing this, I’ll do a brief recap of what’s going on….. in case you’ve been living in a place where news travels slowly, like up North for example, you will notice that we have a new manager, he is the ex-Norway and Valarenga manager Egil “Drillo” Olsen,
