Following on from his comment about having eleven Stephen Hunts in the team, Coppell has now decided eleven James Harpers would be quite good too.

I always thought it was either a team of Kevin Doyles or a set of Philip Parkinsons. Now we have to come to terms with 11 James Harpers or Stephen Hunts as well.

Harper is quality & always has been.
Unfortunately when Coppell decides to play Hoooooooooooooooof ball like he has been lately, Harper will go missing.

We'll need a team of 121 players to satisfy SC soon.

You forgot Nicky Forster, though I spose we did only want 10 of him. Maybe the spare Parkinson was for that team.

Eleven James Harpers would make an interesting game, no tackling, no passing forwards only sideways or back. How would goalie James take goal kicks, he'd have to keep kicking out for a corner.

It's a bit ironic to see you berating somebody for being negative.

11 James Harpers? Wimp. We only ever needed 5 Parkinsons......

LOLZ

When Harper went through one-on-one against Reina I though he was going to stop dead in his tracks, look round, and bump the ball back to Graeme Murty.

You don't think maybe the opposition would object to us having 22 players on the pitch?

Not if the opposition can do the same - apparaently Roy Keane has nominated a team of Greg Halfords plus a team of Michael Chopras for our forthcoming match

I'd go for 11 Dave Kitsons any time. Can attack, defend and think.

I think it's a bit harsh to call him that, he scored a good goal at the weekend.

I've always wondered how the crab dances with girls as he wouldn't be able to move forward to grind against them. I'm sure after a couple of minutes they'd walk away because they don't understand his finger pointing.
