Bidwell, man.

That’s the key isn’t it. He won’t have been on major money so far (think I read he was still ‘only’ on £50k a week at Brentford) and time is running out to get the major contract(s). Couple of years over there and then back to a lower-to-mid PL team I’d imagine.

On a serious note, though, I think it’s the expectation above all else that this was the season we really kicked on. 2 strikers each close to 20 goals last season, opportunity to build the squad out, I’ll be honest I was hoping we’d be challenging for the title (and who knows, we may still do)...

I hope we win and Sheaf scores a hat trick.

May as well not field a team. Season over. Thorn out.

Well, I suppose we’ll just have to sign Alzate then.

4 minutes til Adem Zorgane is announced.

Clever adaptation of the much famed Yorkshire half time entertainment: Whippet for a Ticket.

That happens anyway though, doesn’t it? You buy a ticket online, that ticket is emailed to you, you scan your phone. Don’t get me wrong, I’m in favour of simplifying things but it can actually work at the moment. 90%+ of it is down to user error as-is.

I mean, even if it was 3 months it means he’s got a fighting chance of getting a month’s worth of games before reassessing in January.

Obviously don’t know how serious the Obikwu injury is, but would there theoretically be any harm in loaning him out to a L2/L1 team so that when he returns from injury he can get some game-time (assuming he’s fit before January)? We’ll be paying his wages if he stays here injured anyway, so...

Corrrr not long to wait then!

I don’t know how I’ve resisted saying you’re thick for so long, but here goes… You’re thick.

Delay in the announcement as we’re trying to find a lens that would get them both in.

So you’re saying we’ll sign Billing in about 10 years?

If I’m not mistaken, the turning point was him being left on when clearly injured v Derby (was it Ebosele he was up against?). Absolutely ruined him, then constantly rushed back and broke down again.

He’ll end up going for mega money.

Just looked briefly so may be wrong, but in our last 8 games of last season we conceded 3 from corners and 2 from other set pieces. That I’d imagine is significantly out of kilter with general averages.

Right, this may sound bonkers, but 3 on halfway spread right across the pitch, 2 on the edge of the centre circle, 2 a reasonable distance outside the box almost covering the possibility of a short corner. That’s 7 players outside the box. By the law of ‘general consensus’ that means the...

We did for a bit, and the opposition left 4 back. However, I’m toying with the idea that if you leave loads up (ultra high risk, I know) then the opposition will have to be very selective who they send up for corners. If they send up their centre backs then your own attackers could have an...
