Bran Van 3000 - Drinking in L.A.

In the words of one of our most positive posters "Let's just wait till the end of the window" I can't wait 🤦‍♂️

The last sentence (in the article) shows just how far out of touch our owners are.

From what we've read from GM and others, there's nothing groundbreaking coming out of the minutes, when they are finally published.

And best wishes to you, I hope you come through stronger and cancer free.🏆

Will do, the best scenario is one where everything stays stable for ?????? long. 🤞

Never been a Dolan fan but admittedly he works hard, isn't hampered by injuries and does all the things you'd want from him except deliver consistently. Fact is, he isn't top quality. If we hadn't constantly low balled him he could have been a decent if not spectacular member of this years squad. Good luck to him.

Great idea for "smaller clubs" it would be a logistical nightmare for probably the 2 people who run Rovers ticketing operation.

That's our first starting team in the league games.......

Been to see my oncologist this morning, apparently I've got 2 more sets of treatments, not got the last one until the end of September 👍

Cheers @yeti-dog, Thanks, my treatment is going well 🤞 I have my last session of immunotherapy on 6th August (it's a 2 year course) and after that I'll have 3 monthly scans. When (and it will) the tumour in my lung starts growing again (may be anything from 6 months to 5 years, seemingly) I will then go on a course of chemotherapy or radiotherapy. I'm fairly active still, get tired easily and am a lot shorter of breath but if you'd have given me this 2 years ago when I was diagnosed, I'd have taken it! I hope your surgery is successful and you have a good support network around you. I spent a lot of time researching all the various aspects of being a cancer sufferer, Macmillan are a great resource for this and have given me lots of useful information. I live alone and have great neighbours but all my family are still in Lancashire so I have to be pretty independent which suits me as I enjoy my own company 😁 My biggest driving force is having my dogs, they give me a reason to get up in the mornings and a positive start to the day. Positive mental attitude is a big factor, I go into my oncology and treatment sessions with a cheery attitude, there's always people worse off, quite often a lot younger. I don't know how long you've been diagnosed but when you visit hospital regularly (I'm there a couple of times every month) it becomes less daunting and more "routine". Thanks for asking about my health, it's been quite cathartic putting my thoughts down in writing 👍 Good luck with your treatment, the forthcoming surgery means you're moving forward 👏 Once again, best wishes.

That should be The Coalition's strapline 👏

I think somebody has tried with the kits but they've failed but not a bad attempt by this regime. Faint praise and all that.

They'll look into it.

Dubois is the new Delboy.

If that's not going to be in the minutes, surely you can divulge?

I watched quite a lot of it because it's football, the alternative being the Women's Euros. Chelsea players have 3 weeks off before home friendlies against Bayern Leverkusen and AC Milan on 8th and 10th of August then their first league game against Palace on the 17th.

This is why the 5 day game is the essence of cricket (Baz Ball excluded). 3 fantastic tests 💯

Bit cringy at Dumpdale 😕

Why does Archer wear those chains when he's playing?

And nice to see Mbappe and Bellingham sulking 😁

I'm guessing that Val wants to keep Cal, surely he'd be pushing for both sides to come to an agreement?
