Don't agree with this personally. It was a big step-up for him last season and I thought he did OK for the most part. I would expect to see some further improvement this season too as he will have further adjusted to the riggers of the Championship.

I've posted on this thread a few times about my feelings of the cost and my personal struggles with such. After deliberation with Mrs. BigUts it isn't happening. She was all for it but with the sheer increase in everything else I don't think I can justify it. If it would have been £100 cheaper I probably wouldn't have even blinked, but £400 to me feels like a mental barrier I'll struggle to breach. If next season the 'loyalty' discount remains and therefore the price to me would be further inflated I will probably never own a ST again.

From memory Utd paid about £50m for him so it stands to reason he will be on big money; although when some players in their squad are on £300k+ you would imagine Shaw will be on moderate wages in comparison

I am clearly an island in thinking that the logo isn't as bad as some others we've had. I'm not overly enamered with the brand itself but when we had the likes of Crown and Bet24 and even bet10 which took up half the shirt, I appreciate the minimalist approach.

Not shocked. Bradley certainly doesn't seem like a player who is built for such a game. Would need to trim down considerably and improve those fitness levels.

Didn't we play a high press during our excellent spell of form before Xmas last year?

I don't think we are likely to have paid anywhere near £7m for Brereton. Wasn't it based on a number of performance related payments i.e. us getting promoted?

Looks like a complete nothing Tweet. Reading the thread of tweets in response people are laughing at the made up nature of them. I would think its some kid just pi55ing about

No deal. People are crazy to think that we should cash in on Dolan for 2-3m. The lad had so much potential that he hasn't yet fulfilled.

This was me. Somehow I have 2 accounts 🤷‍♂️

D'oh!

I think this is a move that's for the best for everyone involved. I still remain unconvinced about Darragh's ability and I'm surprised Wilder want's him really as Darragh is awful on the ball and if he goes for the usual overlapping centre backs then he surely wouldn't fit in that system. He will get nothing but applause from me when he returns. Obviously cares for the club and I never saw the lad not give anything but his all and this just feels like a natural parting of the ways. Good luck Darragh (apart from when we are in direct competition with you of course).

I'm sure there is just a technical error. I wouldn't sweat it too much

And where was your seat? Mine is in a good spot and there is one next to me that's free...👀

Hear you. Mine and my son's seats are still available and if they had gone I almost certainly wouldn't even be thinking about it...

Fear Of Missing Out

Getting serious FOMO now... 🙈

I almost feel like applauding this post. Its perhaps SO ignorant that it deserves to be almost held up as a beacon of all that is is wrong.

Still awaiting the "attractive season ticket packages" that were promised... https://media2.giphy.com/media/6uGhT1O4sxpi8/200.gif

Surely even the biggest air-head in the world would use today as a great opportunity to sell some more STs? Reduce the price substantially and double the number easily. Strike whilst the iron is hot[test].

Welcome, Jon. Let's get to it and get this squad assembled!

Everton and West Ham are 2 great examples of the big clubs off of the top of my head. Only since Moyes has arrived does it seem to have flipped around for Wham and come good - but I would be almost certain he wouldn't stand for having players forced upon him. A great example of where it does seem to work is Liverpool but again, apparently Klopp has the final say AND Liverpool are now renowned the world over for their analytics and recruitment departments. @chaddyrovers - do us a favour though mate and don't preach to people like you KNOW what the relationship will be between A.N.Manager and Broughton. You have as much a clue as me i.e. zero!

I'm sure it would be the former but the latter is definitely a justified paranoia!
