From website: "The kits will be available to purchase from the Roverstore next month in a limited edition presentation box." So expect a price tag around 65 quid then including said box. Also got the impression that ALL of our kits this season are "limited editions" 🤔😜🤣

Everybody is a star or hero these days - how about a bit of honesty for once: "Bournemouth set sights on Southampton u-23/bit-part/reserve player..." Yes I'm old and a miserable git but it does my head in 🤬

You missed the words "rejects or reserves"

Agree on the first bit - it is that little caveat that strikes me as odd. Guests of Blackpool would have made more sense to me (but i don't work in football so that is why i wonder)

Is that normal?? Sounds bizarre to me

Does TM do transfers? Doesn't do tactics, training, league table etc etc 🤔😉

A nuclear blast is bright in the beginning...

Nah - Gally is our backup leftback this season 👌🏻😜

Any team news yet?

Also on website. "Significant undisclosed fee" 🤔😬🤣

Option 5 - give Newcastle 1.2m, don't sign anyone and do naff all about the ground or academy. Give TM and crew new contracts as thanks for AA deal. Possibly entice Downing out of retirement in oktober and then not play him...

Expect a similar sell-on clause in that case. Free transfer but a percentage of any future fee

Tbh i don't think either of them can play the pressing game as well as AA - which means Dolan will be put there. Obefami sounds perfect "as a player" and IF he wants to get a good move in 2 years time then we are a good bet for him to show what he can do. Also suspect BB will move abroad in january for naff all.

If true that our owners vetoed a 2m deal with Sheff Utd for Rothwell then he'll be here until he leaves on a free next summer

Good luck to him - been a good pro for us and done the hard work to get the chance. Think the "non-contact" route the game is taking will suit him but will probably have to bulk up a bit as well (easier to do with a premier league physio setup).

Probably if Southampton win the champions league after Armstrong scores a hattrick in his 100th game for England... Think 9m up front and 6m in add-ons is likely to be closer to the mark 😟

Think whoever is the liason is also key. I can imagine us paying a bit more to not be forced into "every game" but agree to discuss the player with the liason before dropping them. In some cases this will be seen as part of the education - why would Liv/City want players that aren't used to being dropped if their standards slip?

Will Never forget the King Georges Hall meeting 🤣🙈🤡

Fair points but i thought bringing on Davenport was the right choice as Swansea had control of the midfield after their goal. Still wonder if it was planned "like for not quite like" swap with Buckley that was planned but got abandoned and,as you rightly point out, the changes caused a little confusion and loss of momentum. Thought we got it back with Butterworth and i sort of agree with the decision to bring on an extra defender and with 8 minutes left as we were counter-attacking well.

Anyone know if Davenport was getting ready to come on before Gallagher pulled up? Have a theory that he was probably coming on for Buckley prior to that

Shout out to Kaminski for crucial saves. Brereton-Diaz for having the balls and nerve to score the penalty.

Good result. Good subs (even if Buckley up top for a while was odd) and good that we kept going forward. Swansea were suicidal though

6 mins extra

Close - just over
