You think we are in financial trouble now 🤣

I think the main problem is that everyone speaks English to some extent so you can go to France, Germany, Italy Spain and by definition their English will be better than your ability at their language. The Irish are the same, though I do sometimes wonder if I have a genuine learning disability when it comes to languages, I spent 14 years doing Irish in School and apart from telling someone I need a piss I have no Irish at all. Edit: Jesus Bluebruce you are ruining my day. He made the point before me.

Worse, we loan players that at best should be on the bench but play regardless, step forward you Moran.

You know what, I never even copped that. I linked the story as news for Irish rovers that it looks like he will be playing for us and got sidetracked with the story about the fee, my bad as the kids say. I stand by the class act comment though 😁.

Sammie is a class act. Not even a hint of a story about him going to another club, obviously keeps his agent on a short leash. And he is a much better finisher than Armstrong, not saying he would do well in the Premier League but Armstrong's pace was nullified in the PL because everyone is quick. SS has more nous and intelligence in my opinion. https://www.irishexaminer.com/sport/soccer/arid-41351755.html Good news for Ireland, looks like the Hungry links are very much dead in the water. Article also mentions 15m link to Brentford. Surprising amount of true. Don't care how much he goes for we won't see any of it. Hope he stays another year or two and runs his contract down and then leaves for free.

Unfortunately he is worth more to us than he is to anyone else.

I spoke about that game as it is specifically called out regularly about match fixing. I do keep an open mind and I believe there was serious shady things going on but I believe it was to do with agents fees player contracts and the manager. If I was looking to start making money from illegal betting I would not start with an investment of 50mil in a club. I'd just be gobbling one or two referees which would give you way more control for a lot less cash.

So let's say it was fixed and 6 of the 11 players are all in on it. So you place 500k spread across a load of accounts on not a single shot being taken. What happens when one of the 5 players you have not covered take a speculative effort from 30 yards? I could believe in a general plan to bet on back to back relegations or something but no 0 shots. The back to back relegation thing would also seem unlikely as we had a decent start to that season where we 6th when kean left? If we were trying to get relegated surely we would have started terribly?

No way he is getting sacked before end of the season even if he doesn't win one of his games. He has a 2.5 year contract Waggot is not contacting his bosses to say he has paid someone 2.5 years wages for 8 weeks work. They wouldn't even say JDT they waited for him to get another job so they could agree mutual termination. We are stuck with the guy for better or worse I suspect even if we are relegated and next seasoned goes badly he would be there till after Christmas.

Either the squad is terrible and neither manager was responsible or both managers were poor. In my opinion We were going down under JDT, I think he was capable of saving us and had demonstrated the year before that he is a very capable manager but he had lost interest and in my opinion was doing whatever it took to get out of his contract and if that meant relegation so be it.

I don't want to argue but did they say considering the cuts that came in at the last minute and the budget we actually ended up with, they did well. Because that is not the same as saying I think JDT got everything he needed. For what it's worth I think we failed to get value even considering what little we spent. Leo is terrible. The strikers might as well never have arrived and the loans have been shite. Siggy might get a passing grade if you are feeling generous. Edit: I spoke about summer rather than January sorry. January was significantly worse than summer.

Did anyone say that?

His agent works for him, if it is in his contract he was involved in putting it in there.

How has he been doing for Plymouth? Not exactly setting the world alight since his move, if he wanted to play in a league one quality team locked in a life or death struggle against relegation, he could have stayed put.

Only if you count Leo.

He looked like a 10 year old trying to make a save look spectacular.

After JDT, you are worried about Eustices inflexibility???

He hadn't a leg to stand on. Jimmk2 got there before me, well before me. You could say I have been dethroned

He is saying bad words to me!!!!

Jesus this is terrible.

He is too good for League 1 😞 You know what that means.

Jesus the Swansea commentary is AWFUL!!

Lets just agree they were both terrible and I suspect we will be waiting longer for JE's fist win than Brum were for Rooney's first.

Worse that Wayne Rooney who replaced him at Big Club?

Nobody wants Micah Richards as a supporter 🤣
