You're confusing games.

How about this one?

Who is that?

You seemed to rapidly gain in confidence as your post went on 😂

Walking distance from my house and they opened the bar which was a bonus.

Powell was the stand out for me at left back. Litherland looks decent on the ball. Caddick looked quite tidy. Tyjon looked quite lively when he came on. Mafoumbi reminds me of Ennis. He looked overweight. Difficult to see anyone making a break through this season but presumably Lyon are a pretty high level and we didn't get outclassed.

Duru was there with his girlfriend. She looked decent.

I was just watching some highlights of Cozier-Duberry on Youtube. I assumed the Bukayo Saka comparisons were the usual lazy comparisons. But he absolutely reminds me of Saka. He looks a real talent. Looking forward to having someone like him in the team.

I once met Tommy Smith's son (Darren maybe?) and he had a great story about Pele from when he was a kid. They'd moved over to the USA temporarily when his dad got a move over there. They went to a restaurant and Pele attempted to go in but they wouldn't let him as he was black. So Tommy also left the restaurant and they all went for McDonalds as they would let Pele in. Great story to tell people about the time you were a kid and went to McDonald's with Pele.

I thought we had to pay out the entirety of his contract due to Shaw removing a clause without Venky's knowledge?

Here it is. So whilst JDT technically offered to leave for nothing, the club would actually have been entitled to money off him (assuming a similar contract). This is why managers rarely resign these days - it's usually mutual consent.

I know that Steve Kean's contract had something in where he had to pay the club 12 months salary if he left of his own choosing (new job or resigning).

Worst decision ever

That centre half pairing would get murdered if they have anyone with any pace.... ..like my gran.

Sign him up!!

I had a season ticket back then and don't remember that bit! (Not saying it didn't happen)

And presumably they'd take more money if they went down the cheap tickets option when you take into account food/drink sales. This should be a tenner for adults and a quid for kids. Capitalise on our decent start to the season and get a reasonable attendance. Still the school summer holidays - so no concern of school the next day for those of us with young kids wanting to go.

. Dilan Markanday 9 Only signed on Thursday but he went straight into the line-up and he gave a very tasty performance in his first 55 minutes before being withdrawn to save his legs. Grabbed two assists from corners and was unlucky not to score himself. He ran circles around Crewe and it looked like he had been playing in this team for years. The ball was stuck to his foot at times as he dribbled his way out of tight spaces. Very exciting debut. More, please.

Currently 3rd. Some people need to chill out a bit.

Who do they think they are? 😂 If he goes - maybe we should add Guardiola to our shortlist to replace him (I realise this isn't quite the same, but you get my point)

He looked really pumped up just before kick off. Top class performance. It felt like Tronstad and Travis could be a very good pairing.

Isn't that a good thing?

That was about 13-14 months later then....and Michael Appleton was manager. Can't give Kean the credit for that one.

We actually played Arsenal a month later away and lost 7-1

SWBy my calculations (and I have been drinking), we've scored 13 goals in our last 13 games of the season. He's scored 10 of them and got 1 assist. Absolutely ridiculous.
