Retaining Hedges is a waste of time, but I know why we’ve done it- because he’s cheap.

Not sure why this causes so much confusion, but to simplify it: Teacake- doesn't contain currants. Currant teacake- you're never gonna believe this, but it contains currants!

Anyone finding this thread a bit cringe, any chance of you crying about it somewhere else? Maybe a support group of your own? There's a choice to be made about entering this thread, you don't have to make it, you can always do the unthinkable and just keep scrolling and go onto the next thread.

Yeah, it was absolutely wild, that!

Pep Guardiola is such a bad loser. They were done fair and square yesterday and how he was with Henderson at full time, was absolutely pathetic.

If nothing else, the goal from Palace was an antidote to aimless passing for the sake of it, with some quick wing play and a smart finish. Moving the ball quickly with purpose, been a while since I’ve seen that at the top level!

If there’s a bonus, it’ll be good for Venky’s, but not our first team.

FA Cup final during the season feels wrong. Probably because it is, tbf.

It's great that we want to promote academy players and it's something I fully support. With the added caveat that they have to be good enough, otherwise, unfortunately, they'll drag us down.

It's now Tuesday 17th of June.

We probably won’t bother opening it until the 16th of June, even then, will only be slightly ajar.

Thanks for the update Captain Obvious 👍. I know that, but the owners should be putting more money into the club. If they aren’t willing to, then they should sell. It’s not that hard to understand.

We should have the money, our owners are billionaires. Even aside from that, we’ve sold all our best players and not spent anywhere near all of it to replace them with, so we absolutely should have the money.

You certainly Mashed Potatoes is a man?

Mr Miller made this point very well as the Fans Forum meeting, last time out- but basically saying, that he was buying a season ticket for the first team, not the under 23s. First team prices, youth team football.....

But then, I guess this question could be flipped on its head too. What's the point of a professional football club, if promotion isn't even a short-term goal?

Yes, but it doesn't make it right, does it? Match going fans are cast aside more and more, because Sky TV is calling the shots. Shit situation tbh.

I like the idea of youth players getting into the first team a lot. That being said, they should only be going into the first team when they’re good enough and when they’re ready. Not just because our billionaire owners won’t re invest any of the many millions we’ve received from selling our best players.

If they wanna be mad at anyone, it should be the board for not offering TAA a new contract last season.

United playing well in Europe mid week, then losing at the weekend is as much of a safe bet as there is nowadays!

Yes, they do, you’re right. It doesn’t make it right though.

That pricing is laughable.

It’s worse between these two when the season is on, tbf.

My 11th birthday and still one of my favourite days as a Rover.

Hedges tries hard but he’s a winger who doesn’t score or assist anywhere near enough, so this is a chance to move him on.
