That would be great. I’d play with two wingers and two up top all day long in this league but I’m not sure where Dack would fit in on that one.

If you think we play with wingers then that’s fair enough, no worries. Right sided forward / left sided forward at the best. Not out and out wingers in my opinion.

Ah ha! Someone else had noticed! Seems a shame to shatter that illusion. Anyway, we’ve finally signed a centre half! However I expect that Man City are just agreeing Pep’s pay off package before appointing the WBAS board as their new manager. Of course I jest but it will be great to hear from so many happy posters on here now that this is finally over the line.

Games gone.

…. which is all very well. But, well, quite frankly it's minging so I'm afraid I won't be investing. I'm sorry but I'm out.

Games gone.

None of which will matter to you, you’re on record saying you won’t go again until Venkys have gone. After that your constant daily posts about how everything is shit carry very little weight. The sane amongst us will wait until the end of the window, then make a judgement. It’s blindingly obvious what’s needed next. I’ll not repeat it. Good signing though.

Very true Rev, very true. Good job I’m not manager. Tough gig.

Can we!! Can we have Hyperbole!! That would be the greatest!

I’m sure I read it on here, occasional 9/10, occasional 3 or 4 out of 10. Need the middle ground. Superb shot stopper. Brilliant. But never looked big enough - not enough presence. Next...

If they put a “highlights” reel on of his errors I’d be here until sund... oh, ffs

Well that’ll do for me.

I’m very worried too Stuart. However we have five weeks to get one in. Quite frankly if we don’t I’ll be amazed.

Well that was a shit signing.

Nope, still here gb. Anyway, transfers. Everyone knows we need new defenders, including the manager. Despite what some will tell you the transfer window didn’t shut the minute Downing signed his contract. There is still time. Most, if not all, players contracts end on 30 June. Why start paying players earlier? Not saying that’s the reason why we haven’t been busier but it’s hardly been hectic around the championship. So a centre half, left back, new keeper, new midfielder and a striker. Possibly for me. I’ve no problem with the Downing signing. One thing this team needs is leaders and experience. Time to put an end to the sloppy unforgivably weak goals we give away at the end of matches. Get some accountability in the team. We need two or three in there to dig the culprits out. A proper centre half, a Craig Short, Kevin Moran, Berg type to get them organised and switched on. If we stop these mistakes, bring 4 or 5 better players in than we’ve got (big ask) then we really should be right up there challenging.

What? Like putting you on ignore? That would only leave me with half a messageboard to read.

No, fortunately still alive and well enough to read your prolific output. Although at times the alternative does seem attractive.

“Calm down” ? says the man who’s posted 11 times in this thread alone today before 10.00am.

Quite. And that’s what makes this run even worse. 3 0 against Hull, the best football played in years. For the wheels to come off as they have. It’s just not good enough. Apathy indeed.

Excellent stuff. A great listen.

Yorkshire Tea in our house, or, on occasion, Badgers Piss. They have the Badgers Piss Tea Bags down The Asda out the back.

Pretty sure this is right.

Quite. He could have gone for that. Terrible challenge.

No need for that mate. You’ve got half this messageboard Googling the word “fun” now. What’s next? After 3 defeats in 44 games, the extravagant term “moderately happy”?

Should be used to it by now bazza! Keeps the blood pump on its toes though, I’ll give you that! Just saw the goals on Sky 402. Soppy penalty decision that I thought.
