It's Nelsen, not Nelson.

Hopefully, he has two good eyes and arms, as well as two quick feet and will be "all white" when he plays for us and doesn't have to go home to NZ too often if he's still playing for/captaining the national side.

I get the feeling this is going to become the new Gomez and Zakora!!!

Seems strange, for somebody who has been out for almost a year and isn't deemed s good enough backup to samba/dann. Yet we have him. I love how even our backups are cripples.

Good luck got the fella

Aren't there a few at Blackburn who were not being played for financial reasons? I think Jason Roberts and at least one other were kicking their heels because an extra appearance would trigger payments to a former club. Perhaps he has been reasonably fit for a while now but wasn't being selected. If he available for Monday then suggestions of being in NZ for career saving treatment a fortnight ago are wide of the mark.

This is the rest of the league's reaction to our statement of ambition.

Sorry guys, I know people are saying it's a good move but I just don't get it. He's old, he's a crock, and, well, I've never thought he's that good. I'm surprised he didn't go to West Ham. I might be wrong, but...

He's a good signing who should fit in well with our collection of CB's. I think a few people have forgotten how good he was at the world cup a few years ago.

Seriously how many more captains do we need?:)

I think all these players have been captain at some point in their careers(obviously not all at Spurs) -

King,Dawson,Huddlestone,Modric,Parker,Adebayor,Kaboul,Sandro,VDV,now Nelsen and possibly Friedel.
Anyone come up with anymore?

For this TW, or for when we signed Friedel, Parker and Adebayor - which was, supposedly, equally ridiculous and destined to end in disaster :shrug:

An Aussie shit-talking the Kiwis is like Ronnie Corbett beating up a midget.
