michael duberry
on his wikipedia site it states that duberry has signed a years contract with OUFC it also says the news will be released on monday !!!!!
Time will tell but not the calibre of proactive signing we're looking for, I don't think. Much like a mordern day Chris Whyte or Colin Todd...much inclined to like them, but ultimately what did it achieve? I kinda subscribe to an idiom read elsewhere on this forum somewhere today....that we should be looking to sign other side's best players, not cast-offs from contemporaries or inferiors on the pyramid.
I do remember thinking Duberry was the mutt's nuts...but that was in 1995. Given that a young, fit (and reasonably impressive) Rangers reject is not part of Wilder's plans, I am struggling to conceive that an older, slower, St Johnstone reject could be.
No bones about it, St Johnstone fringe/reserves is the equivalent of a slightly northern Hellenic League.

His Wikipedia page has since been edited to remove the Oxford reference (and no, it wasn't me that did the editing, though I could easily have).
My point was, I'd back North Leigh to beat St Johnstone every time.
I DO trust in King Chris and if that's what he decides, but...he'll be 36 by the time the season comes around....is that really whom we're interested in?

The standard there is lousy. Appreciated I only watched it for 7 years, but it was enough to make me wish to stick pins in my eyes. It is the reason Windass, Townsley and many many others (to other clubs) come south.
Truly, no antipathy and I hope for the best - but it's hardly a fillip for Harry Worley, is it?
