They were all scouted by him, also it’s most of the squad that isn’t out of contract at the end of the year. I’m trying to be fair here. I think Kitching and EMC are dragging down the negative column and we’re relying on MvE or Simms turning it around for an overall profit should we magically...

I’d say Dovin - Too early to tell. Looks like he has potential but maybe not number 1 yet. Probably over paid. Collins - Awful. Was cheap and still over paid. MvE - Difficult second season, got the potential to be worth more than we paid. Thomas - £2m for a young CB is OK. Binks - <£2m for...

Just hope we get at them early and get the crowd up. A good home win will help the mood around the club so much, just Milwall away since Robins left so no real cathartic home event yet.

Is it me or does Lampard sound a bit like the squad isn’t as good as he expected there? Talks well again, and again worth noting he’ll only have had two free midweeks when the new year comes round. Talk of “training in games” is interesting.

In a thread where home schooling was primarily used to hide the abuse. Yeah I am. Your kid has a right to an education. Most people cannot provide this. They have a right to a social life and generally a life away from you to grow up. I seem to remember you’ve got family who home school. I...

Child abuse isn’t a choice I respect. Sorry. Most home schoolers are the exact religious people you’re talking about. It’s literally what this thread is about. If they’re not weirdly religious they’ve got other weird beliefs that their kid would be better off being moderated away from by...

Yeah it is. Religious weirdos or weirdos with strange views about what kids should be taught. There are very few, if any, kids that shouldn’t be in some form of schooling. If you’ve come to the conclusion on your own that yours is one of them you are probably wrong.

Ooohh hope they’ve got some tech jobs going. I might even go into the office if it’s five mins away and has a gym.

What was said was that other teams might be playing better against us because of our bigger profile, no?

What’s that compared to others? Genuine Q. Curious how much of an outlier we are in terms of conceding first/conceding early.

If I were given a blank slate and said I could have any of our players for free when building a new squad, I’d take Wright, MvE, Sheaf, Saka, and Bassette and Rudoni as prospects. Now considering we are likely to lose Sheaf, MvE and Wright in the summer, we’re basically starting again in terms...

Can those with Starmer Derangement Syndrome keep it in off topic please?

We’re certainly a bigger scalp than three years ago. Im not sure how long Lampard being manager matters. We’ve also spent a lot of money for a non parachute club which puts a target on your back. I’m not sure how you can’t say we’re bigger than 3-4 years ago in terms of profile.

They didn’t even try. They were passing it up to our box and back to theirs again. Even the commentators commented on how they didn’t want to attack. And they still beat us 2-0 without trying.

We’d have to try and beat a man in the final third and I think that idea gives our forwards, apart from Haji, the vapours.

Sorry Steve. I know this is your belief but I think the US post pandemic pretty much blows this theory out of the water. EU/UK did austerity and suffered. US did stimulus and thrived. And the money is going the same place it is everywhere else: benefits and healthcare for an increasingly...

Why haven’t the markets responded like they did with Truss? That’s your answer.

Possibly. Just doesn’t impose himself or do anything massively out of the ordinary for me. And surely if we did get Doug to relax his no midfielders rule he’s the first out of the team anyway?

I think we are. One of the biggest crowds in the division. Celebrity manager. Regularly tipped for playoffs. We aren’t 2020 CCFC any more really.
