  1. Utterly amazed people are talking about 'if' Sammie leaves. This lot would sell the mascot if they had the chance. It's a really sinister position where I am half hoping we get next to nothing for him to try and force their hand to leave faster. Selling him to keep the lights on is the worst outcome for me.
  2. I know we signed one of the Irish youngsters we were looking after, but there was another wasn't there who scores loads of goals. Has he signed?
  3. In fairness when Telalovic signed he came with a 9 second 100m sprint allegedly. I was expecting the footballing Andy Green up front
  4. Straight through pears. Hope the Everton number 6 is OK
  5. I know this is all futile and we've no money/ambition but you'd think after 2 (3?) pre seasons in Austria we may have dipped into that market. Can't say I've ever watched the league but they've obviously got decent enough players going into Germany semi regularly and you'd think we'd be seen as a step up compared to the league except Rapid
  6. It definitely is for the women, still just about the budget for the men
  7. You all need to think more Waggot. Think of the money saved not having to buy new letters for shirts when you can change the Garrets G to a B
  8. If we start the season with Gallagher, Armstrong and Dykes the netting behind the goal will have to go half way around the ground
  9. We're not at the spending stage because we masquerade as a football club. We've had scouts go out to see the player. We've probably had early talks with their team. We've let the manager start thinking about styles of play, bombing wingers and aggressive strikers. But unfortunately it's futile, because there is an intentional road block at the most important bit - coughing up for it. And that's by design - remember that.
  10. I don't buy pre tournament many people are picking Spain players ahead of England. We've scored 0 goals from open play pre the 70th minute. That's an indictment to how we go out and play for me.
  11. After 3 tournaments there is no justification for our lack of 'way or play'. Before the tournament no one could name the Spanish manager and half the Spain team are middling in their clubs (Ruiz, Laporte in Saudi etc). Are style of play is lack of ambition. We got the goal and sat back again - like Italy.
  12. Wed be better with a Crosby beach statue upfront. Not bothered who comes on, just kane off before the 60th
  13. This time last year we had Justin Ferizaj's dad ringing the club round the clock. Now we might be interested in Dykes. Where are the bizzaro crazy wonder kids
  14. Sad indictment of the times that even the fake in the knows can't be arsed thinking of exciting signings
  15. Didn't we sack our European scouting and 'hidden gem' scouts this summer
  16. Dont know why we bother with Instagram. Cut out the middleman and do eBay listings.
  17. Thousands of Sicilians let out a cry
  18. I meant from the proactiveness. As far as I am aware the players they've signed are either ex top of their academy (Tanganga) or top of their league on individual performances at chepa rates (Longstaff and Jensen) However could easily be the 'Stoke have done good business' of this year
  19. On the face of it, Millwall are doing some great business so far
  20. A down payment on a 500k value 😂😂 there's people buying houses for more than we can afford this summer. Wonder if they're on 30m a year like we are. Although I don't think buying houses is the Venkys forte
  21. Trying to be optimistic at the gates of hell, what impact if any is the departure of Walsheidt and Telalovic on work permits? I remember some rule around 4 players being allowed and as seasons progressed they have points that decline in worth?
  22. Can we get a shared Google doc on Nixon and his accuracy please. There's religions with worse factual statement to faith in word ratios than him
  23. I know we aren't a normal club so any sensible optimistic business is pointless, but Scott Banks from Palace has been released and wouldn't mind him here
