Where's the laugh reaction when you need it? ?

Honestly, this DryHorse chap is like the Dad from Goodness Gracious Me! Only everything is Scottish, not Indian.

Sling them a cheque like QPR and Leicester did and tell them to go @#/? themselves.

Thought we were under League 1 rules and owners can put in as much as they like? So why would we get a transfer ban?
QuoteClubs in the League 1 and League 2 operate within a Spending Constraint framework termed Salary Cost Management Protocol (SMCP). SCMP limits spending on player wages to a percentage of club Turnover. In League 1 clubs can spend a maximum of 60% of their turnover on wages - in League 2, the limit is 55%. There are no restrictions (in themselves) on the amount a club can lose or spend on transfer fees.
Relegated clubs
The rules apply to all clubs and there is no moratorium for clubs relegated from the Championship. However, Transitional Arrangements are in place whereby clubs are allowed to exclude the wage costs of all players that the club signed pre September of the relegation season, if they were signed on contracts in excess of 3 seasons.
Turnover definition
Under the SCMP rules, the definition of 'Turnover' is particularly important as Turnover is used to determine the maximum wage-spend. Within a traditional accounting perspective, there are usually only three elements of turnover:
- Match-day Income
- Commercial Income (such as sponsorship)
- TV revenue (and any 'merit payments' based on league position)
However the Football League use a is broader definition of Turnover. Crucially, the FL Turnover figure includes donations from the owners to the club and injections of equity. Loans from club owners are understandably not included in the Turnover figure as these would result in growing club debts. In League 1 and League 2, a wealthy owner can therefore fund the club spending in a way that is not permitted in other divisions
Can't see any reason at all in there why we should be looking at a transfer ban. Unless it is something we allegedly did last season in the Championship, but we hardly spent a penny - that's partly why we went down. And with the likes of Wolves, Villa, etc. spaffing 10's of millions and going unpunished, frankly,I think it's bullshit.

How can anyone trust Mowbray and these alleged scouts when theyve delivered garbage like Gladwin, Leutwiler ,Caddis, Samuel and so on......
I can. Because for every couple of Samuels and Gladwins, there's been a couple of Dacks and Smallwoods. We've had a good season and the majority of players have done well. I think Mowbray's earned a bit of trust and leeway in the next window. If we're 24th and his signings are doing shoite by time December comes round, by all means slag him off. But right now, as the great George once said, you gotta have faith a faith a faith..

So sounds like, loan him back til January, if he's doing the business, recall him, if not leave him here and look to shift him in the Summer. Worst case, he does shit, we don't renew in Jan. Best case, he sets the division on fire, and Boro recall him in Jan. By which time we should be doing ok and either sign a replacement or give one of our own a chance to step up. Seems like a fair cop to me gov.

That's @#/?ing brilliant. Love it.

As long as that chance isn't at Rovers, crack on.

It'll give him another "black people aren't getting jobs cause football's racist" to bleat about in the press when he doesn't get the job anyway. Not because football's racist, but because he's obviously crap.

Great achievement. Well done Johnno and Dunny! Hopefully some of these players will break through to the first team next season.
Now for the Senior's to win their title!

As a person, I can't stand AJ, but i gotta say, I did like that comment. He's the holder of 3 of the 4 major belts, why should he go over to Vegas? Let Wilder come to Wembley and try and challenge AJ on his home turf. As much as I don't like AJ as a person, he's a very good boxer and my money would be on him to do Wilder in the Uk. Have it in the US and I can see a dodgy points desicions in favour of Wilder winning it.

Parker did well. AJ just about deserved it on points. Showed if you've got a chin and a decent punch, you've got a chance against AJ. Looking forward to AJ vs Wilder. Parker deserves a lot of credit tonight. It was a lot closer than the likes of Froch would have you believe, for me.

Think Ireland are gonna dick us to be honest. But, England could do with a morale boosting win against Ireland on St Patrick's day, then onto the Summer Internationals to get us over this mini slump ready to build some form for next years World Cup. Would be more of a slap in the face to come 3rd to Wales! And surely would see the end of Eddie Jones.

From the video evidence he has a bit of a swagger about him.
Unless he scores 10 minutes before making his debut, he is a total set up to be a target of the Blackburn moaners.
Not sure that's true. Only seems to be JAL that's moaning about him. Everyone else seems cautiously optimistic.

Peter Kay has cancelled all 100 nights of his upcoming tour for "family reasons".
http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/peter-kay-cancels-first-tour-11687075?service=responsive
If you've got tickets, now begins the long slog to get your money back Luckily for me it was just a one-off splurge and not a Christmas prezzie for the missus, like I know a lot of people will have done. Poor buggers are now gonna have to go out and brave the hoards of shoppers and buy something else! -
Nutall, Tomlinson, Travis and Wharton?
-
Should go through. Probably 2nd to Belgium. Group D looks a bitch. Argentina should win it, but any one of the others could pull off a shock and 2nd place is definitely up for grabs

You'll never find out if they can do a job unless you let them try. Like he's been doing more recently, with Nutall (although personally I would have done it a few weeks sooner), I'd stick 2 or 3 of the U23s that are performing the best on the 1st team bench every week. If they do well coming off the bench, as Nutall has, then give them a start. If they don't perform, then they drop back to the bench, then back to the U23's and someone else gets a chance. No point talking about having quality in the youth / reserves if there's no progression to the 1st team as a reward for playing well.

Ah, my mistake. I thought they were still on the blue one. Ignore that then.

Why do you still feel the need / are entitled to take people's posts from here and post them on Twitter for your sycophants to make snide comments and take the piss out of posters, without the chance to reply? And Kamy is just as bad for joining in, thought you were better than that.
