The soul of football, right here. Jimmy isn't into going out to glitzy bars, flashing his wealth and dating models. In his free time, Jimmy likes to go fishing with his dad. Also, blinding free kick yesterday.

I wish I'd called this 'You can stick Dave Kitson up your arse - the Jimmy Bullard appreciation thread'.
― Matt DC, Monday, 4 February 2008 11:19 (seventeen years ago)
Martin O'Neill not quite so AWARE and PROACTIVE yesterday, when it mattered, was he?
However, Bullard excluded from "soul of football" title due to unfortunate resemblance to ex-Crackerjack presenter and grape-crusher Stu Francis.
― Dingbod Kesterson, Monday, 4 February 2008 11:22 (seventeen years ago)
A+ for effort and C- for execution when attempting a somersault after scoring the free kick.
― Billy Dods, Monday, 4 February 2008 11:26 (seventeen years ago)
Considering he destroyed his leg for about 16 months, I thought the somersault was quite brave.
― Matt DC, Monday, 4 February 2008 11:27 (seventeen years ago)
Hence the A+ for effort.
― Billy Dods, Monday, 4 February 2008 11:33 (seventeen years ago)
He looks like he should be playing for Man City in 1981.
― Dom Passantino, Monday, 4 February 2008 12:22 (seventeen years ago)
Bullard is a more visceral thrill, Kitson is, clearly, one for the intellectuals, the Garden State to Bullard's Die Hard.
Maybe the Status Quo to Kitson's Kraftwerk?
― Matt DC, Monday, 4 February 2008 12:35 (seventeen years ago)
The Kogan to Kitson's Chuck Eddy.

yeah, in as much as die hard is awesome and garden state clearly thinks it is, but clearly isn't.

Actually, that's how Roy Hodgson picks his teams, by feeling all of his players' faces.

has anyone seen pete winkleman (Franchise MK Dons) and Jimmy Bullard in the same room?

What's with Roy Hodgson's accent? What is that? Kind of London Jewish sounding, a bit? Or something from the 50s? In fact:

Hodgson, if I remember rightly, is from Croydon originally. I have no idea if that explains his inability to pronounce R's, but I suspect he's not really been round Thornton Heath much lately anyhow.
― William Bloody Swygart, Thursday, 7 February 2008 12:23 (seventeen years ago)
Jimmy Bullard is the Steve Stone of the noughties.
Hodgson used to play for the scum aka Carshalton Athletic spit. They're all weird down there.
― Pete W, Thursday, 7 February 2008 12:55 (seventeen years ago)
England international Steve Stone!
― Matt DC, Thursday, 7 February 2008 12:56 (seventeen years ago)
Steve Stone was the Steve Hodge of the nineties.

Big money glamour move to Sunderland coming up!

i've reconsidered- he looks like one of the weasley twins.
― darraghmac, Friday, 11 April 2008 12:42 (seventeen years ago)
I can see Bullard eventually becoming this generation's Neil Redfearn. you can't say that about Kitson.
― Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 11 April 2008 12:47 (seventeen years ago)
kitson will be this generation's george best
― darraghmac, Friday, 11 April 2008 12:49 (seventeen years ago)
My god he is the perfect Sunderland player isn't he?
― Matt DC, Friday, 11 April 2008 14:01 (seventeen years ago)
No, he's not Irish or ex-Man U.
― Pete W, Friday, 11 April 2008 14:07 (seventeen years ago)

Bullard was the original 'on dis ting no hype lol', wasn't he?
How much joy he has given us in such a short time.

I thought he looked fine on Saturday - kind of heartbreaking to see them lose even if that penalty was hardly justfied.

Meh, don't really think he shd throw himself on the dole just cos his club was run by spendthrift buffoons.
― Sub/Doms Whipping Here (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 07:06 (fifteen years ago)
Transparent negotiating tactic to squeeze more pennies out of his next club, surely?
― James Mitchell, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 08:00 (fifteen years ago)
I can see him lining up for West Ham next season, Sullivan and Gold probably have his number already. Maybe even Newcastle, he's the sort of player they love, despite being Cockney Mafia.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 08:40 (fifteen years ago)
Don't know how much of a dealbreaker not being able to insure him will be, especially given the current football economy
― Sub/Doms Whipping Here (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 08:42 (fifteen years ago)
do you really have to spend £40m a year on wages to (fail to) compete in the Premiership these days?
― snakebite and a passable pinot noir (Upt0eleven), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 09:32 (fifteen years ago)
Nah I feel like Hull had signed a bunch of guys to big contracts who then couldn't get in the 1st team.
― Sub/Doms Whipping Here (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 09:34 (fifteen years ago)
Also I think "unfashionable" clubs sometimes have to offer over the top wages just to get players to come to them.
― Sub/Doms Whipping Here (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 09:35 (fifteen years ago)
Being a Wigan style club with a great talent scout and a shop window reputation seems to be the way forward for unfashionable clubs.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 09:37 (fifteen years ago)
Or, y'know, doing a Fulham and signing players with a bit of professional ethic and commitment seems to work pretty well.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 09:38 (fifteen years ago)
Agree that City's scouting seems to have been woeful, and that they didn't have to sign the feckless slackers that they did.
― Sub/Doms Whipping Here (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 09:39 (fifteen years ago)
Good man management helps with the latter tho. Lucky they had a master psychologist at the helm.
― Sub/Doms Whipping Here (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 09:41 (fifteen years ago)
Or, y'know, doing a Fulham and signing players with a bit of professional ethic and commitment not having a buffoon for a manager seems to work pretty well. (xp)
― Tonight, the Looming Moment of Crunch (Tom D.), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 09:44 (fifteen years ago)
Being a Burnley style club with realistic ambitions and business acumen a tightarse accountant to match seems to have worked out pretty well.
Fully expect them to return to the Championship with more money and a stronger squad than they had before.
