Leonard Venkhater

I can see the question looks like the old joke, but it was a serious question...Who?

Who is his agent?

We haven't seen the beginning!

or Ally Dawson...

Is he that good?

God, I hope you are right!

A non mordant reply lol

Something about the difference between a diagnosis and a hypothesis... Personally, I just hope TM's statements are poker...e.g. the defence positions are "no longer urgent"...because if not.....

Blue -eyed Boy, is he back then?

Putting this carefully...was not a certain journo thought to be actually in league with a certain Barnet lounge lizard?

But the club is dodgy!

The irony didn't escape me either. However, I don't think he is good enough to be our No.1. Too many mistakes to demoralise his teammates-and me. "Better than Steele" is no great advert. What worries me is the idea of going into the season without a better option. That would have echoes of summer 2016...oh and 2011. That would promote a new essay question: Safe hands: discuss with reference to goalkeeping and ownership.

Bowyer was reluctant to sell Cairney...

Except, as you know, it isn't like the old days. The large transfer fees could just ..er..vanish.

And we have a history all of our own in the Scottish striker department....Joey Craig-I remember we actually chanted his name with irony-Stokes and the ironically named Goodwillie....so emptor well and truly warned!

Adam and Johnson in midfield too!

All these midfielders being linked too...now Butterfield....and I hope you don't mean daft money like the B+M fee for Cairney!

Oh God.. Travis would fit into the possible pattern...i.e having been marginalised by TM in the past....I would be with you over that edge!

Yep. I haven't "moved on" either...

Understatement worthy of ....Thomas Hardy!

Moira? It's those red boots!

Pal!

TM haters.....you are better than that!

Well, don't you think it is at least possible that his "convenient" request was a direct consequence of TM's actions/statements? Time will tell if this turns out to have been good management. Right now, I feel that Raya was not yet reliable enough to be our number 1...

Weird. Goes against all my instinct...unless it is some kind of pay-as- you- play deal. In all fairness, I guess we won't be able to judge until all the ins and outs are complete. Could we be about to shift Evans, for instance? There has to be a goalie/centre half lined up...doesn't there?...Sorry, delusions of normalcy!
