Sadly we are hurtling towards F1 levels of the result only being a preliminary classification 🤬 Clubs will employ video analysts to scour through games to find breaches and appeal for the game to be replayed as something did not comply with the letter of the law (not necessarily the intention of said law)

Schrödingers transfer theory

Nixon - hope - winning the race Sounds about as convincing as a club statement 🤣 (hopefully Nicko is right tho)

And it begins… (game to be replayed in part due to VAR) https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/68116985

Unless they have been told that he is /will be worth 50 million…

Sorry - thought that City were due to play Rangers from the beginning?

Think Moran is suffering from not having Dolan on the pitch. SS, Dolan and Moran linked up well and Dolan did a lot of pressing that meant Moran had more space

Slightly different meaning if his wife talks about “getting stoned tomorrow” 😳

Gallagher winning a near post defensive header really highlighted that. Stuck out like a sore thumb in comparison to what had gone before

If true that Rangers pulled out at short notice then I wonder if we played the game partly to give returning players a run out but also for a fee for playing the match? We seem that desperate for cash and SW would be unlikely to say no…

Usually yes and then eventually disproved or categorically denied by the club (as with Morton). That is what stuck in my mind but it could just be my memory playing tricks and is just a post in here without basis in fact

That is what I am trying to remember - if it was GB, JDT or someone else (Waggot??). I remember similar claims regarding Morton were dismissed as incorrect - which is why I was surprised until our true financial position became evident

Wasn’t it confirmed that Moran and Hill agreements included gaurantees of gametime? Not sure if it was literal or that there were severe financial penalties if they didn’t play…

No

Me being lazy but does anyone have the (rough) figures for each year regarding Venky’s contribution to make up the shortfall? (Feels like it has been 20m regardless during the last 10 years…)

Actually could see the potential and logic IF he was 20-21 but at 24 he should be further on to justify a fee. Also to be fair - he has the Marx brothers defending in front of him and (yes I know it is bollox but…) statistically was way ahead of Pears prior to the weekend. All that said - right now we need Pears to come in and Wahlstedt to work hard in training and maybe level up muscle wise…

I suspect this is part of why Ennis must be loaned out and soon - easier to then argue that Gallagher is needed (numbers wise - ability is judged to be of secondary importance by our leadership)

I think this is why Travis was shown the door - Buckley returning nothing to do with football - purely wagewise

From a distance the current supporter discontent is more about recent results and our head coach not “parking the (presumably leased) bus” despite the bloody obvious lack of players capable of doing that and a point blank refusal from his bosses to recruit such players… For whatever reason - even when he was grossly overachieving - many see JDT as a bigger problem than our bent owners, dumbed down operations and a CEO/leadership that does not want success on the pitch. Mindblowing 🤯

Agents (like players) can negotiate a bigger fee if there is no transfer fee involved… The only loser is the “selling” club

Made me chuckle - nice

That is a very obvious “please sack me”

My wife suggested we could turn it round when Garrett scored - I told her that WBA would start trying again and score a 4th… Didn’t have to wait long to hear the sweetest words in marriage - “you were right” 🥳

A club full of dedicated proffesionals 😉
