    Our slowest ever player

    Oggy I reckon. Lati has a very odd running style that makes him look even slower

    Grimes - our most important signing ever ?

    Adam Wharton is pretty skinny, MacAllister isn't giant. Joshua Kimmich again 5' 10" and lean. There are plenty of examples

    Grimes - our most important signing ever ?

    That's one reason I mentioned Jorginho, he I 5'11" and not exactly a rippling boby builder, he survived/thrived on his guile on the ball and reading of the game. Obviously he has had a far more successful career but it does prove you can do it at the top level even if you aren't super athletic...

    Grimes - our most important signing ever ?

    I know he's well regarded with people in the know but it is surprising he isn't talked about more in the press. I guess he doesn't really do the flashy moments that can be clipped for social media. I'd love to see how he would get on in the Prem, I have a suspicion he'd cope well. Being super...

    Haji- new agency

    Said it on another thread he'd be absolutely insane to push for a move 6 months out from a world cup. Especially to a struggling Prem side. I don't know what he'd gain from not just waiting. I'd imagine his display for USA in the break before he got injured has him on the plane already bar a...

    Grimes - our most important signing ever ?

    Too soon to say. Some good shouts above though. I do think Grimes is massively underrated by a few and often over looked by the press for TOTW or team of the season of far votes. To me he just quietly does most things way better than the majority players in this league. Very little flash to it...

    JSB pre/post match stuff

    If the fan zone is open you don't need JSB membership to join in with any of their activities. They have a bunch of games and stuff to get involved with. Good luck locking in a future Skyblue

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Everyone is allowed an option 🙄 Personally think a move now doesn't suit anyone, far too much risk for the club to get in the right replacement and loads of risk for Haji having to settle in enough to a new club and league to cement his WC spot. Took him a while to get going for us. His value is...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    These Dwight McNeill whispers are interesting. I never brought the narrative that we'd struggle to attract quality loans. Surely we are a huge opportunity for fringe Prem players to kickstart their career and potentially pick up some silverware. Not many moves will offer that. If we can pull a...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Haji would be nuts to move 6 months out from a home world cup. His goals in the international break before he got injured have put him one foot on the plane. He is getting opportunities whilst playing here in lower league why would he risk that moving to a club that will struggle this season...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    A win and Ipswich & Saints dropping points would be a great day. Oddly not worried about Middlesbrough or Stoke having the quality to mount a challenge

    Club Shop

    I get what the club are trying to do, whip up the whales, bog spenders and collectors to nibble at £100 a pop. Limited to1,975 some will go, probably enough to make it worth while. I'd imagine we'll see a few in the clearance section like those shoes they released a awhile back. This has...

    Things that annoy you

    Booking travel in 2025. Trains, Flights Parking all designed to empty your wallet and drive you mad. First they bump the prices around any school holiday. Then they proceed gouge you for every 'extra', I personally fail to see how there is anything extra about wanting/needing to sit by your 13...

    Redundancy

    Sorry to hear this, Never good but what shite timing. The company I work for keeps trimming the workforce, lady I sit next to has her last day next week. Hard to feel relaxed and motivated to be honest. Best of luck in your search, hopefully you'll bag something better.
