Yey!!!....ggreat week indeed.

Nicky Butt joined South China FC, a HK club.

legend meh? was always a backup player bo, sampai sendiri mau out of OT

not considering him to be a flop(he's from our academy what)...juz teringat dia

Remember Butt, you asked? As a United fan kita dilarang lupa Nicky Butt.

or else he will be Butthurted when he read this...

you gotta be kidding me.......

he didnt say he wan out himself lar...he is like phil neville, luking for new challenges lar.

I tot he wasnt getting enough games and wanted out? Moving to Newcastle, isn't really a new challenge eh?

the one and only reason Butt cant make it to the first line up is because Keano and Scholesy is god mode back then, otherwise he will be regular. Having said that, he isn't a back up as well, he played a whole lot of games, either as starters or subs. check out wiki, about 30+ match a season.

touche' ada pun yg ingat.the treble were all soo proud of couldnt have materialised with out the likes of butt, phill and co.there where no such term as "backup" player".

all 3 of them were regulars actually.keano, butt, and scholes.the 3 was one of the formidable midfield maestros we had.still remember his tackles, never the one to shy away from physical aspect of the game.

oh what i really mean is rotation type players, not really the backup type that warms the bench or play in the reserves...much like JOS was some time ago

Sounds more like an insult to me instead!

rotation is the core in our club ma,no one plays all the games under the gaffer.not even the king himself, if you can remember.

He was first choice and scoring lots of goals for Bordeoux the last time I read about him. It was a season or two back though. Not sure if he's a regular now.

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/player/_/id/5...bellion?cc=4716
07/08 first choice. 30+ games started, 12 goals
08/09 squad? 17 games started, 4 goals
09/10 backup 7 games started, 3 goals
this season so far, 2 subs..

I don't think he should be considered as a flop. He wasn't bought to be fighting to places in the first team. He was brought in as a gamble. If it works out, great, if it doesn't, it doesn't bother us one bit kinda signing. He's the kind of signings teams do now and then. They saw the raw ingredient and thought it could turn into something better. But as is with most cases, not everything works out. We had Ole, Ruud, and Forlan and we operate with only one striker back then.

why moving to magpies is not a challenge? Butt has won all there is to be won for bpl. he doesnt wanna go abroad, and chose to stay local instead. hence, chose magpies lar. dei, tambee....u tau sejarah MU players anot punya lar??

touche'

missed his name in mah earlier post.fortune is another of low profile heroes.hats off for them.

congrats to Sheep, our 13th man....hahaha

why suddenly Citeh & Arsenal jinx? Since when Sheep got new disciples under him?

xpa xpa, sabar.educate the young ones

besides at the time they moved on we were in rebuilding stage too.new players coming, some going, places limited etc etc.but that doesnt mean they didnt do well.

by flop, i mean generally doesnt work out la. Flop doesnt have to be top-name-turn-bad...that's stereotyped by Berbaflop . he's signed as promising, especially at the first few games. but end up the progress not as expected, so in that sense is a flop. at least thats my definition of a flop la, dunno what's yours

if you really think he wanted a new challenge instead of more games then okay..... history man

tambee
