Is this the start of the bonkers out of his mind Martin Allen reign or is this (clearly) a joke I just don't get??? Thought he might tell jokes at half time but, apparently, has been signed as a striker! The off-side count might grow a little now! Oh and by the way, I have been signed as goalie - anyone who has met me will know why that sounds as daft as this!

I think he won the auction a few weeks back on the evening with Martin Allen so it's just a bit of banter.

superb i think the way Martin is interacting with the fans.

Ha Ha. Yes, a lot of money was paid over on the evening with Martin Allen - Mad Dog did say to keep it quiet from Mr. Scally!!

You're not losing your sense of humour are you Gary? The 'signing' was obviously a joke. The bloke was older than me!

LOL GARY, I have known graham humphreys for years and years. His mum is one of the clubs biggest fans having travelled home and away for years. His mum is one of the two Pams that were always interviewed by the Kent today newspaper Pam Humphreys and Pam Tyler they used to work the old Gill's shop in the rainham end.

He is a lovely bloke a real gent. Met him on the tube on the way to Barnet this year and he made me laugh all the way there. Real nice person.

I think your looking too eagerly for the Allen reign to fall apart if you took this seriously.

My post was very much tongue in cheek, I added a little of my own (obviously as vague as the initial report of the signing judging by the responses)!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I did put "(clearly) a joke" as it was obviously even though I didn't get it. It's not often you clearly identify a joke without understanding why it is a joke in the first place!

Now there's a subject for a discussion - what would we do if we were a politician? I have many ideas but I can't post them on here!!!!
