I didn’t cry when we failed to complete the signing of Ron Davies in the early sixties when the fee had been agreed.
I should have done.

Didnt realise we were that close to signing him back then that might have got us out of the 4th division earlier lol

Who had we agreed a fee with?

He's never recovered from his claim about signing someone from Hartlepool years ago....

Someone else on twitter thinks its Branden Horton in the blue shorts in the video. I think they may be right

That a bit weird Horton wearing Dallas’ old swimming shorts. Perhaps is more that one pair of shorts floating about

Accentuate th Positive, eliminate the negative

Just re-appreciating his 'Transfer Unlikely' postscript, as though it was ever a tangible possibility beyond his own imagination.

I think the point is in his holiday pic from last year he’s wearing light clue swim shorts…then in yesterdays video there’s someone walking around the pool in very similar light blue swimming shorts.

It’s clutching at straws of the highest order

Dallas wasn't even on the plane to Portugal so I don't get all this is it or isn't him rubbish . My nephew as been working down in Kent for 3 months on road repairs and this week they are on the main road before turning onto where Priest field stadium is . He is a big Town fan and says Dallas and another bloke (presumably is agent) was at their ground on Monday and he's their again today according to him.

It’s comical how we have a thread where folk have seen Dallas in the Casa with his club ‘number 9’ tracky on, he’s apparently told fans he’s signing, he’s been seen by a bloke laying tarmac in Kent and spotted auditioning for Love Island with the team in Portugal yet folk feel the need to dig out a couple of jokers on Twitter for being full of $h!t.

There’s nowhere more rubbish is spouted than on this very board.

Get him erecting roadblocks, pronto.

PS If we've signed Grigg I don't reckon Dallas is incoming as Cook ain't going to start playing more than one up top.

These go to eleven.

Just beacuse Dallas wasn't on the same plane as the rest of the squad, doesn't mean he didn't fly out, there is more than one flight to Portugal from more than one UK airport, as well as regular flights back, too.
