The playing fields of Teeside is where it’s at anyway...

Year to go with 10bet, wasn’t there? So have we now lost a year of sponsorship income? I imagine that it won’t exactly amount to a fortune, but it all adds up to why the place is locked up with the season only a month away...

Ok, so you don’t have any names. Just a way to wind folk up, good to know...

I’ve no idea, that’s why I asked...

Which posters start every post with that?

Considering it’s been in the works for over two years, presumably we had irons in the fire pre lockdown?

Typical Wilcox...

It’s a god send actually, saves me loads of time when watching MOTD, can fast forward through half of it.

Christmas now for one of the biggest/fastest scientific achievements in history? You said September! You lied Chaddy

Maybe it’s just the way I’ve imagined the site works, I.e a mod can spot a row and cleans up accordingly. I didn’t realise that the hidden posts are usually down to a report, I’ve never reported a post in all my time here, nobody likes a grass! Not knocking the likes of you K-HoD, you do a good job, I just thought it was a patronising way to talk to a poster like Bruce. Anyway back to ‘transfers’.

Come off it J*B who is reading that apart from perhaps when they join? If someone asks a question of a mod mid thread, surely you just answer without start quoting obscure site regs? Anyway, it’s your baby, feel free to respond to constructive feedback as you please, but just remember it’s the likes of Bruce that actually ARE brfcs.com

I don’t recall ever hearing you ask for ‘reports’, but ok...

How about taking the views of long standing posters on board, instead of a snide response?

Murphy’s nadir was that home game against Peterborough - three nil down after about 20 minutes. He didn’t lift a leg and was hauled off at half time. I literally cannot watch/listen to anything he’s on to this day, as he goes on about ‘work rate’ ‘desire’ Prick

Quite possibly, my point was more they could start the season with a squad akin to the one Bolton were repeatedly getting smashed 5-0 with this time last year... though I suppose Wigan will be just happy to KO the season at this stage....

We’ve hardly heard a peep from ‘the club’ since March apart from how to access ifollow (which is an EFL initiative anyway), a statement that killed two birds with one stone as it also bundled in a guilt trip about refunds. Didn’t expect a daily Downing Street style briefing with Waggott flanked by TM and Cheston (rotated with Suhail), but the near complete radio silence for 5 months does point to a club in suspended animation...

Article in their local rag makes it sound as if 12 will end up being the high point. Echoes of Bolton... https://www.wigantoday.net/sport/football/wigan-athletic-back-training-who-will-stay-and-go-2939624

Think they call this the ‘Bargaining’ stage...

He’s 26 in a few months, can’t really be put in the ‘prospect’ category. Maybe this is all there is with him and why being in and out of a middling Championship side is the best it’s going to get - technically gifted player, but he just hasn’t ironed out his weak points, most notably zero end product.

Let’s hope so...

With 10 months left on his contract? Didn’t United bid £20million last window? Surely it will have now depreciated markedly, especially with the relegation...

Even if it got us promoted?

? Arma can stay!

I’d long forgot it went to a tribunal. 25%? Is this confirmed/normal for such cases?
