Jermain Defoe (no longer a rumour)

[Blyth]

there were coming from the back of the south stand during the first half

There was one song, hardly anyone sang it. Probably first 20 mins. No more. I’m in the south stand.

However posters were saying it would be full on Defoe songs for 90 mins. There wasn’t. Plenty of backing for LJ. Much more then there is on here.

Can't decide if that's legit or not.

Replies suggest it’s fake

Is his username not iamjermaindefoe ?? I could be wrong

Never called Johnson at all, I like Johnson. People just like to make up drivel.

I was sure they'd be defoe chants, only heard one little pocket try it, got that wrong.

Fair enough. But you were sticking up for the article

On twitter it’s both.

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

It’s mad, isn’t it?
He was at fault for Flanagan missing the ball on the half-way line last week before Accrington scored, missing his clearance which led to Lincoln’s penalty and Winchester’s red card; and for Gooch’s airshot before Maguire got the third. I’ve seen and heard him blamed for almost every individual error a player makes. I don’t understand how that works

You're probably sitting in front of @TravellingMackem

This thread is ridiculous now like. How many pages of just pure shite? Bitching, moaning, bare faced lying. How much longer does this shit have to go on ??

We are just warming up man, literally the soup starter before the main course.

Would have been a lot more of it if we went behind.

Yes but if you’re private messaging someone on Instagram it shows your actual name rather than your username.

 

[Watmore can I say]

No there wouldn't.

Let’s get this straight, we need a big attacking threat ( like Ladapo ) to play along side Ross or in case he gets injured. Full stop. If we can get JD this will be for the short term to come on as an impact player from the bench and he’s likely to score from the chances we create and gain maximum points. He would give the team, squad, club and the area an immediate lift with his qualities and personality. As I’ve said before we badly need heroes like him working as an ambassador or within the club when he hangs up his boots.

On his play style, a load said he couldn’t do the lone striker role when Allardyce came in.

Then he did.. magnificently if truth be told.

Aye he’s 39, but by all accounts he’s in good nick for his age, and you can imagine he still has the quality

He’s adaptable certainly. I can imagine him enjoying a lot of chances given the attacking midfield and wing options we have. I also think he and Stewart would create space for each other if played together.

Fingers crossed for a nice surprise tomorrow.

 

[As You Were]

Surely if he was back up here today like was being rumoured he would have been spotted

Aye, but it’s just Jermaine Defoe OBE if you select message. Just tried it lol

I’d convinced myself he wasn’t coming and now I’m not getting any work done tomorrow

He’d have known about it if it was me . I was very quiet yesterday tbh. Too cold to shout much and nothing actually happened all game

Not having that like

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

It is short term in the playing capacity anyway but that's fine, we've seen many teams prosper from this through the ages.

If we bring Defoe in I'd be highly surprised if we look for more striking options though. Might be the last signing of this window even though I'd love a big CM as well.

If we signed Defoe, it's unlikely we'll have room for anyone else over 21 in the wage cap.

 

[hodge1973]

If he was in it for the money hed have signed for a team by now, its obvious he wants to sign off with a club he loves, he will sign for us this week.
