Thank God there's only another 3 days left of this madness. Just be happy when it's 7pm on Monday and we know where we stand

If you don't wish to believe it I'm absolutely fine with it, got as far as sorting his 'exit message' apparently.

Speaking of youth academy products, philips is in the England under 21 squad

How could you possibly know that

If that is true then Leonard won't be going there. MacAnthoney isnt one to be messed about, especially not by inexperienced know nothings like Pasha.

Kin hell - Pasha & MacAnthony, what an horrific stand off.

We were destined for relegation until he brought 'Big Mac' in from Newcastle. That guy literally dragged us up from the floor and restored some pride back into the old club. 'Big Mac's' importance in the history of this club can never be overstated.

Gudjonson and Smit both seem to be guys who have one good season in 23/24 and then were a bit rubbish in 24/25, neither is particularly inspiring if we want a starter to challenge Ohashi.

Leonard was all set to go, its Pasha that's pulled the plug, wants more 💰

Just listened to the podcast. Came across well although he is a proper footballing weirdo. Also seems to be the kind of person who thinks everyone is nice. Said that he never demanded from any owners as its not in his make up and admitted that his "principles" probably are a reason why his limit was being a Championship manager. Wasnt one to stamp his feet. When he spoke to the owners about budgets he agreed that he wouldnt go back and pester them for more. Principled to his own disadvantage clearly at times. The way its escalated to this intentional prevention of getting promoted is still absolutely bonkers and unfair. Also just said that Wharton trained with them when they were light of bodies. Didnt take credit for him as has been suggested. Another thing that is often thrown at him is him mentioning being far away from home which is again unfairly made out to seem like he didnt want to be here. He seems to have guilt around not being at home more with his kids across his career. Yet he is so fixated with football that as soon as the season starts, including now, he becomes desperate to get back in. He doesnt say it like its a chore, he speaks like he cant stay away from football. He would blabber on about football all day if someone listened.

Eh!? There’s no chance this is being leaked by Rovers.

Jesus the bloke has got everything wrong today...Thought he said it had got down to a million? Yet apparently we've bid 2m for Soumano? Nixon back to his usual.

Fee proving difficult for Gudjohnsen according to Nicko

He made one good signing - Stephane Henchoz. All the rest ranged from poor to abysmal.

no

I imagine we won't want to rush Baradji, considering it's an international break next week, it at least gives the physios more time.

Is Forshaw back?

We’ve signed 8 players this window, it’s clear we’re being active in the market. It’s the one summer you cant say the club haven’t made efforts to bring players in. Why would they bother to put a fake rumour out there that we’re trying to sign (checks Twitter) ‘Milan Smit’? Far more likely it’s agents putting names in shop windows.

For some reason they've been absolutely desperate to bring Baradji in. A loan to buy for a player they can't give a timeframe for is a head scratcher. We're a CM down with Travis leaving, we're really short there now.

Any strikers we were chasing or rumored to be chasing last summer or in Jan?

When you think about the fees that were paid too. Absolute megabucks by the standards of the time.

I am assuming the hierarchy know they can use their phones to scan transfer documents. Dont want McGuire syndrome to kick in

That’ll buy a lot of tins of “ Hammerite “.

Nathan Blake was another really poor signing.
