    Assuming that the BBC is right; XG has us winning 3-1. It wasn't a smash and grab. Give Ismael some credit.
  2. CaptainBeanfart
    Not everyone connected to the club is a lackey or a stooge. Ismael doing about as well as can be expected with these players. A huge gamble was taken to replace experienced Championship players with cheap foreign imports and it has failed. The head coach can only work with what he's got. All this anger is directed at the wrong man.
  3. CaptainBeanfart
    This is so far off the truth. They were in the Premier League and had qualified for Europe the year that foreign owners bought them. We'd have to do something similar to be appealing to foreign money.
  4. CaptainBeanfart
    On what grounds are we planning to appeal? The precedent for action in these cases is clear. Reminds me of when we embrassed ourselves appealing the O'Brien and McGuire transfers. It sounds like they'll change the rules now at least, which is long overdue because they're garbage. But that's too late for us.
  5. CaptainBeanfart
    The issue is that there is absolutely no precedent for it, and nothing that separates this game from others that have had full replays ordered.
  6. CaptainBeanfart
    Not really! Just a hunch on what I have seen.
  7. CaptainBeanfart
    Miller in a two scares me. I'd be tempted to play a back three to try and mitigate it. Toth Miller Wharton Pickering Alebiosu Tavares Tronstad Ribeiro Morishita Ohashi Cantwell Something like that
  8. CaptainBeanfart
    Saka, Foden, Bowen, Palmer, Madueke, Rashford, Eze, Gordon, Grealish, Barnes, Rogers, Hudson-Odoi, Gibbs-White, Sancho, Elliott... Sure, something could happen to all of those, I guess!
  9. CaptainBeanfart
    De Neve reminds me of the period when we signed a load of random Portuguese lads, played a few games, and were never heard of again. I do not understand the signing at all. Henricksson and Tavares have more pedigree, Henricksson in particular seemed to be a fan favourite with great scoring stats for a midfielder. Hopeful that both will come good when they've adjusted to the league.
  10. CaptainBeanfart
    Because other teams get stronger, too. We probably overacheived last season as well.
  11. CaptainBeanfart
    If Baradji isn't fit for a while then we should look at a domestic loan, I don't see how we can justify another permanent signing there. There should be some young PL talent available as we near the window close, there usually is. We'd have to sell a centre back before buying as well, we've got four senior already.
  12. CaptainBeanfart
    Has Ismael been backed? This is all funded by sales.
  13. CaptainBeanfart
    This is the quote from Gestede: "We used to be over 2,000 minutes for Under-23 Academy players. Last 12 months, 142 minutes." So I guess any player under 23 (possibly including?) that came through the academy.
  14. CaptainBeanfart
    Maybe we're talking about different things, but this is what Gestede said: "We used to be over 2,000 minutes for Under-23 Academy players. Last 12 months, 142 minutes." They want to get minutes into the academy graduates to give them resale value.
  15. CaptainBeanfart
    Established players like Carter and Wharton won't count towards that figure, just like Travis didn't count towards last year's. It's a target figure for giving a pathway from the academy to the first team. Why would you count players in their mid 20s?
