Michael Chopra

[yerauldda]

Signed for Alloa. Some signing for them, only 31 too.

[SteveHFC]

:top marks

[blackpoolhibs]

Thats an absolute superb signing for them, and a huge surprise. He should be a very good signing at this level, and i can't really believe they have signed him on their wage budget? :confused:

[zippy1875]

Wonder if it's in time to score against Rangers tonight?

I'm not a betting man, but wonder if he'll score tonight?

Where has he been of late?

[Boyle89]

What?!!

[Rivers Cuomo]

Unbelievable signing for them!

The rumours down here is that Chopra certainly is. :wink:

[Oscar T Grouch]

Was over in India at Kerela. Never scored since he was at Ipswich 3 years ago. Hopefully tonight will be the beginning of the resurgence of his career, wee hatrick against the the rangers?

You would have to assume that there is some personal connection there.

I'd heard, did he not lose a small fortune gambling??

Who's currently in charge of Alloa, since Barry Smith left

Didn't he end up in court? Cheating syndicate or some such.

He was involved in a betting scandal linked to a jockey and betting on horses to lose.

Would be nice

[Onceinawhile]

Not playing tonight, don't think they got international clearance.

Paddy Connolly is interim boss at the moment

[the_ginger_hibee]

He's on the bench.

Think he's on the bench. 89 min winner

Ooh ahh Choppahraahh say ooohh ah Choppaarraaahh........what? :greengrin

[cabbageandribs1875]

1-0 yamboids, McTattie, everyone thinks it was offside(including the scorer himself)

[Bronson]

Alloa signing Chopra is a tremendous piece of business. One of the best signings I've seen for a long time!

He's not scored in 3 years!!!

[The_Sauz]

He's not scored in 3 years!!!
So what! It's 16 years since I last scored :brickwall











































oh you are talking about goals :greengrin

[Ronniekirk]

He's not scored in 3 years!!!

So this is the quality of player Rangers could sign on a free before the end of March

[Aldo]

Yip. As long as they became a free agent before the window slammed shut end of Jan beginning of Feb. 6 plus weeks ago!

[nellio]

Chopra was incredible for Cardiff over the years.

Dogged by a severe gambling problem which came to ahead when some henchmen turned up at the training ground asking for money!

Undoubtedly has the quality to play for a top Championship team and some signing for them! Came on as well!

[Bronson]

Are you seriously trying to argue that he's not a tremendous signing for a part time team?

[portyhibernian]

Great signing for Alloa I reckon, should be good at Championship level.

Really ? They had the chance to sign Derek Riordan yet they sign Chopra ? Betting shops will be happy as will the KFC next to the ground.

[frazeHFC]

Thought this was a joke after reading the first post. Brilliant signing for them if he's still got even half his quality.

[Nutmegged]

Are you seriously trying to argue that he's not a tremendous signing for a part time team?

When is the last time you saw him play?

I'd imagine the fact that he's rocked up at Alloa suggests how far he's fallen from the player you're hoping to see

IMO obviously! I did notice he was voted Cardiff City's best striker of the last decade. With that in mind I would reckon at Scottish Championship level he'd be more than capable, still only 31 aswell.
