Lucas Neill

seems to have had a change of heart

More likely has had a reality check as no one will pay him the money he wants, I hope West Ham dont pay him the silly wages he was getting

They won't - that's why he walked away in the first place, but anyone must see that the big money days at West Ham are over. The club said at the time that the door wasn't closed, though.
He was actually not bad for the second half of last season and is apparently hugely influential with the team - took his role as captain very seriously. I won't be sorry if he signs for us again.

He's football's Mike Brearly, shite on the pitch but a brilliant captain.

In other words, a liability on a football pitch do you mean

I wouldn't say liabity, he's got a great cross and is good in the air.

I didnt say liabity, I said liability :Guitar: As for great cross, cant say have really noticed that and as for being good in the air, not really noticed that, normally seen him on his arse after being skinned

Tell that to Rory DeLap....
Lutes, you're not too far off the mark.

To be fair Beds, never thought he was a poor player, but when he chose West Ham ahead of the red scouse shyte for football reasons, he bacame a joke IMO. No disrespect to West Ham, but it was the wages he was given that brought him to the club.

No, you're wrong Lutes. It was a burning desire to be part of The Pride Of East London that brought him to us. Just like Freddie Ljungberg. Silly.

Maybe so Beds, but have to say am getting fed of these to55ers. I know footballers deserve a good wage but is getting out of hand now IMO and am getting bored with it. Mate at work has a nephew at AFC Wimbledon, trying to get tickets on 8 August v Luton. That is proper football

Lion has a friend who's a director of AFC Wimbledon. He was talking about coming over for the Luton v AFC Wimbledon fixture.

I like this now, Neill wants to return but his agent is saying, he don't want a new contract, he just want's an extension. Just tell him to pish off.

I expect they will. He's actually out of contract now, so I can't see that he has much to bargain with.
