Ju(s)t(land) settle down and learn to cope(nhagen)with disappointment. (struggling now) Come on, it isn't Hard(y) to think of more, although some may be in a (HMS) Pickle.

I'm concerned how quick people might be putting Nelson on a pedestal. You're just in de nile. And we have our winning pun, best one for me. Leaving aside the fact that the Tim Vine Fan Club have hijacked this thread, I am impressed by the historical knowledge shown.

Re. Nelson; possibly. But if he's settled in the South West (no idea!) then we might be able to tempt him. Who knows what kind of wages we can offer now and I'm sure we could sell the club to him given the plans for a new stadium, ambitious owners, bright young manager, close squad etc. Most importantly of all, we could pretty much guarantee him first team football, which he'd be unlikely to get in the Championship (you'd imagine). He looked quality on TV and made the L2 Team of the Year so obviously wasn't a one-off. If I was DC, I'd definitely, definitely be enquiring and trying to make an offer; what's to lose! Oh yeah, he's consistently been a very good defender for them. Been there years so I suspect the 'settled' thing is true too. He's been through it all with them mind, League One then admin into League Two and surviving relegation etc. so I think it'd take a good offer to prize him away. You're right though, a punt does no harm. Interestingly, had a search and it seems he's out of contract this summer... We would owe compensation though obviously as he's under 24. DC has a Free Nelson Dilemma then.
