Of course. But you seriously can’t take anything out of friendlies when it comes to form and pointers for success of otherwise for the season ahead.

Silly then, aren’t they.

End of the day I don’t expect to spend net £10 million a summer or even close. But why come out with an out and out lie like ‘a similar budget’ when we will probably spend net about a tenth of what we did last summer. File it with the ‘8 thousand season ticket holders’ tall tale and the others.

I thought it was usually the ITK-ers. Can’t recall Waggott saying anything more than ‘competitive’. I stand corrected, see below...

“We sold our goalie so we could put the money towards a centre forward and a central defender." So certainly not true that we had a budget to match last summer’s...

I’m sure everyone knows that, to be fair...

To be fair you said ‘that’s your opinion’ when people were slagging him off, so folk probably thought you had a different view on Evans’ qualities to share...

I would stick with Hart through pre season, see what he can do. For me we cannot not start with Bell for another year. I’d prefer a new left back, but I doubt we’ll see one.

Good to see the moaning about moaning is back.

XL? Not too much jogging going on, ay?

I wasn’t talking about you, was I! Debated you on here for donkey’s. Christ we need some football. I’m the last person for censorship. But just delete today’s posts on this thread and be done with it.

Ha, I do seem to be the chosen one in the rotating sights of the select few at the minute. Taken me nearly 20 years to be front and centre of the board, but I’m sure it will move onto someone else once the season starts. Oh, I’ll debate with said crew all day long DGS. Just must bore the pants off everyone else.

Wonder why?

I was resting. Mani brought pages ago posts back up.

Biz seemed happy enough with a young loanee and ‘improved game management from the existing defence’. IF this one youngster is the only one to come in, I think that’s a risky approach and certainly not what TM was planning in May, do you not agree?

Sounds great, he’s going to instill this into an entire defence? A defence of two young full backs, possibly a young centre half and a converted midfielder who though good, is prone to rash decision making.

Why would I think that? Danny Graham is the best example of a player with it in the squad. If you read, I say where is it coming from defensively, i.e from the existing defence with possibly a young loanee who’s hardly played centre half. One of the worst defences in the country last season, remember?

Scrap that, he’s on the bench for their other game.

No Hart involved for Burnley either...

Offensively, I think we are right up there. Alas, a piss poor defence that doesn’t seem to be getting resolved.

Thought they just had to give a month’s notice. Which is what some of the others did earlier on. So if they have, presumably they walk in weeks

Well I have. Across media, academia, government publications and so on. Snowflake yes, pejorative. Millennial is the accepted term for that mid 80s to late 90s generation, if it is used sarcastically by people you know or not.

Not true. It is the accepted academic and sociological title for that generation, I.e reaching adulthood/teenage years at the start of the 21st century. Generation Z being the generation underneath.

Accy Stanley get bigger gates than Hamilton (and they’ve been in the top flight for a good few years). The majority of the league struggle to attract 5,000 fans. Some achievement, ay?

Obviously think they are a top side because they can finish ahead of teams with English League 1/2 budgets. Amazing lack of awareness to how bad their league is and ergo their own quality.
