I bought last seasons black away kit for Thursday night football but I've not had the guts to wear it yet 😂

The problem is that pace is so highly valued that the only pacey players this club is going to capture for VI will have absolutely no other talents.

We want cheap players, which is why we're looking in the French, Belgian and Dutch markets (and I assume Scandinavia and Eastern Europe).

Something in football governance needs to drastically change in regards to this. As for Rovers now the hierarchy will just see it as another income stream flogging them before they've cost anything really.

Yes I do think he can get us to (at least)the last 8 I'm not too concerned at the moment, the last couple of games will probably have been a bit of an eye opener for him and by the time the tournament comes round I'm sure he'll know his best X1. I just don't agree with comments like "If he doesn't win it he's failed" when Southgate never even got us past the semi finals of the World Cup. If he were to have 4 cracks at winning something and came up empty handed like Southgate then I'd probably concede he'd failed.

I actually bought last years to play in and the badge was one of the worst in living memory for joggers nipple

Why would you have scouts who have good knowledge of the European market and not allow them to used that to find players? Also given that type of player we want for the wide position we want it's clear you would be looking in the French and Belgium markets? You wouldn't be looking to Spanish or Italian market for that type of player?

I'd spend £60 on a football shirt for my Wednesday night football if I had any pride in the club anymore. Alas.

And you call yourself a fan? 🤣

And yet they've done so multiple times over the last fifteen years. It's a blue and white kit with reversed halves. How difficult is that to do? Exceedingly so, apparently.

I'm too old to wear football shirts any more, but even if I wasn't, £60 is silly money for a football shirt.

He is their boss, he will be dictating what markets the scouts are looking at. Stop defending everything the club does. IF we lose Batth,Brittain and Travis and they are replaced by cheap foreign signings with no championship experience coming in then it will be inevitable that we will be down towards the bottom of the table

There is no logic to anything they have done for 15 years.

Love the inference here that De Neve is at the same level as the two you mentioned. You've got to wonder why all these clubs waste millions on Championship players when there's the same quality available for peanuts abroad.

The question is, what do the Venkys actually get from owning a league one club? I can't for the life of me see any logic in their association with something so relatively trivial. Premier League yes, Championship not so much, but anything less than that surely just tarnishes their brand and marks them as useless. Simples for me. VENKYS OUT!

When Premier League clubs are looking to nab one of our 13 year olds, what chance does this strategy have?

no

Chaddy?

or a Dolan?

Only just occured to me, who actually buys adult shorts and socks?

Will he? given that most of the scouting especially overseas will be done by watching Videos of games and using Wyscout to find players which alot of clubs used to find players. Ismael has been clear what he wants in terms of players qualities and attributes like Pace. Yes we are looking overseas for what we want cos the market is cheap in terms transfer fees and wages. I'm sure we will be looking domestic for players but how many good pacey players can we get for our budget here. How much would a Tyler Goodham cost us this summer or Sirki Dembele cost?

France were poor through most of their run to the world cup in 2018. Portugal drew every game until the final in 2016. No one really remembers how they got there

I believe the plan is for 4 kits, home, away, 3rd and then the retro one to be released mid season.

It's online now.

It's online now. Just kidding it's 9:57am.
