London blue

Sure but sounds like they need the midfield bolstering in some way. Eustace will be pushing hard for Travis.

20 touched in 70 mins from a midfielder is abysmal. I'd be going for Trav, too.

I don't post the following to be controversial or make a point, but I was busy today and where I would usually check the score every 5 minutes I saw us losing after 20 and checked result after 90. I've stopped caring. If you haven't, then that's great, but I honestly have started to lose interest. I also don't post this as a response to us losing, we could have won 4 zip and I think I would have had the same level of reaction. I'll probably attend 3 or 4 away games again this year but my interest in the club is waning.

I can count the amount of disagreements I've had with forum members on one hand, I can't imagine you can say the same. Wharton was obviously known to the clubs you mentioned. Them not buying him doesn't disprove that.

Contrarianism isn't entertaining. He will absolutely have been on their short/long lists. Crystal palace stole a march as they tend to do on championship stars.

The amount the owners send over depends on the revenue from sales, at least that's my understanding. Sell Travel for £4m and reduce next year's tranche payment from India by that amount.

I'm not convinced. He seems to have some attributes and knows the league but hasn't delivered for a year and has had injury problems. If I was in charge of the money there's no chance I'd be forking out anywhere near £2m.

Obviously either selling or not registering some of our worse players.

If we bring in Miller I'll hold my hands up, I absolutely was not expecting a replacement. I don't know much about him but the consensus seems good. Still, sort out Brittains contract 12 months ago and we wouldn't need to replace him.

I don't blame people for wishing we were run like 99% of the rest of the football league, tbf. They'll be more than happy with the new lad, Duru and Kristi.

If I have to...

Don't make me tap the "his replacement is already at the club" sign

Honestly Chaddy you can bore off fella. I'm sick and tired of reading you defending club decisions and deriding those who have moved on to better themselves. You're a patsy, and a willing one at that.

Haven't you heard? We've improved on last year and all of our existing players are now demonstrably better than they were 2 months ago.

Season tickets sales down but revenue from them up. Exactly what they want. Fewer fans = less overhead = more profit. With the added bonus of fewer people to vent anger towards them. Win win.

One of whom has played a handful of minutes, so you're making assumptions on his ability as an actual RB.

Ok so you're assuming, got it.

I'm struggling a little here. How are we stronger in areas we've made no additions? Are you accounting for player development? Also at RB, our new signings being stronger than JRC is a claim. You must have seen something definitive?

There were at least 3 very poor pens. I was talking my Mrs through why they were poor and her answer was "so you need at least one of power and accuracy? So why did they do that?" I know pressure plays a part but if you're not confident of hitting the corner you have to give it the Pearce/Bronze.

There's a difference between not actively following it and openly declaring you have no interest, no? I don't want to argue though, I really enjoyed this evening.

No doubt our success in the English game has contributed to our interest in it. Either way we've just seen English champions, beating the tournament favourites.

Said it earlier in the thread mate, they don't give up in a way that a lot of teams talk about but rarely achieve.

That was fucking brilliant. Incredible display from Hampton How anyone can watch men's football and proudly declare they have no interest in women's football is a fool if you ask me.

Absolutely, would have been Hemp off for me, she looks spent. Does a lot of defensive work though. Bronze down is bad news. Absolute warrior.

This is a touch dramatic. You don't stop a boxing match with one boxer winning by a round or two after 6 rounds. James starting was foolish. Certainly need to get higher up the pitch but there's plenty to be played.
