And the international kit before last was a SkyBlue thing of beauty

They have a reputation for goalkeepers similarly to England’s in the late 70s. They’ve produced three world class keepers in recent times (Handovic, Oblak and Belec) who would have walked into most WC squads. As for outfield players the standard is tidy and technically good but players tend...

I spend quite a lot of time in Slovenia. Vip is a promising player but he’s only played 4 international games and is far from the finished article. There has been *no* speculation there of a link to England - at least until the last day or so when they noticed the transfer bants from fans...

Beware of any breaking news that comes from Greggs. Apparently.

Interviews/auditions for manager/stewards?

He didn’t say his friend was real

“It doesn’t get to bidding stage without encouragement from the player side” is quite palpably nonsense.

Gus Is My Other Calling

Possibly but it’s not like he set the world alight anywhere else was it? I suspect that given the chance he would have largely failed to take it. There are far more serious cases of Strachan failing to get a tune out of proven players - John Aloisi, Viorel Moldovan and - dare I say it - Craig...

Salako was a decent player for Atkinson (was involved in an England squad while with us but not picked to play). He simply failed to understand what Strachan wanted him to do and their relationship fell apart. He’s mentioned it in several interviews. Shaw was a masterful defender and ahead of...

It says “fee agreed” that doesn’t necessarily mean they are paying us. Maybe we are paying then to take him.

I agree with this but v few fans were complaining at the time. He also brought Dublin, McAllister and Huckerby to the club in the first place (the last of which was sold to pave the way for Keane).

Couldn’t get a game at Altrincham after failing to play much at Rochdale and Walsall. I’d suggest Lge 2 looks like a pipe dream right now.

Yeah we’re signing Jamie Paterson

Need to replace from last years squad (which seemed paper thin at times when we had 2 goalkeepers and Josh Reid on the bench) Dabo Rose McNally Doyle Norton-Cuffy Wilson-Esbrand (will accept that Da Silva fills this one place) Maguire Walker Waghorn And probably Hamer Gyökeres That’s a...

Jesus. That’s awful. Friend of mine who I sit with at the CBS passed away last week, similar age and same cause. Shocker.

Anyone happen to know how many work permit/ immigration points this bloke would merit? This could be proof that there’s a serious relaxation of the rules that prevented Rente joining us last season.

Blackburn but this is essentially correct.

@SlowerThanPlatt and @HuckerbyDublinWhelan both make decent points, McNair played well and is a good player. I would argue however that on the balance of play across both legs Gyökeres came out on top. He certainly did better against the Boro defence than Archer and Akpom did against ours. As...
