Lived in Newport for a couple of years and I don't remember it being any worse than back here in Cov. Had a few disagreements with people at the queues for the Severn Bridge tolls but you get the same behaviour anywhere traffic stacks up. The problem is the widespread existence of weapons with...

Derby's takeover looks to be in doubt now too? From what i recall Wednesday have large numbers of players out of contract over the summer so there's likely to be alot of unsettled performances whilst a new squad gels next season too.

It's about huge amounts of money and staying 'relevant' in some way, that's all.

They're a founding member of Europe's Greediest Bastards Club, of course they don't want to share the ball!

Isn't he basically saying that we wont have a bigger budget than anyone currently in the league (that are staying up) and therefore the best we can possibly do is be higher than the promoted 3 (and in all likelihood may be lower than some of them even)?

I read about that, seemed to be on the basis that a presence there would antagonise the Iranians but they seem pretty angry already to be honest.

Like the sound of Montsma. I think overall we probably want to bring in 6 or 7 players but im hoping that at least 4 or 5 of those are aimed at improving the starting 11 and the centre-halves are probably a key area to do so. If he's left footed and quick that really would be perfect.

Which wouldn't be sanctioned by our more powerful allies you'd have to presume. Meanwhile the poor fuckers in the middle languish in Iranian jails.

Yes, i'd presume that desperation is probably a big factor in our apparent lack of leverage over them too. I don't really have any idea of how it could be fixed to be honest, total shitshow of a situation.

What's Montsma like? Seems to have scored a few and looks like a tall centre-half, but i've never seen him play. Stockley was a player i'd hoped to sign in the past, does seem to have struggled at this level but i do think we'll be lucky to sign anyone 'proven' in this division anyway. It may...

It seems there are a few different cases and Nazanin Radcliff isn't the only one being let down. I can't imagine what this is doing to the husband and daughter, the last time i saw him on tv i thought he looked terribly aged in comparison to a picture taken prior to her kidnapping, the stress...

Wilson for me. There was alot of concern when Marosi got injured and i'd not expected him to play ahead of Camp once we brought him in. He's made quite a few errors but ultimately played an important role in a side that's stayed in the division. I suspect we'll be in the market for a new keeper...

I quite like the 'Talbot' based one on the Telegraph site, it's new enough whilst clearly having a basis on an older kit. I would like to see a shirt that got closer to the colour of the old Pony shirts one year aswell.

They could just saw it off, not going to bother him then.

Possibly, although that would presumably mean alot of any combined top division being able to qualify for something? Now i dont spend all my time playing Champ Manager im alot less familiar with how many places each league gets!

Yeah, not many going from Tromso to Stockholm for a tuesday night fixture i'd expect! I wonder if the Dutch-Belgian system might have a top tier that's combined and then a regional approach below that? It should make that league in general alot more competitive though you'd think, might put some...

Croatia has been mentioned in the past, think specifically the amphitheatre in Pula and for the fight with Pulev. I think the Middle East is most likely and that Eddie Hearn likes to lob a few random countries into conversation to get people interested/stoke the sense of a bidding war being in...

Fair enough, I get where you're coming from and would prefer it if events like this and the World Cup weren't staged in places like that too. I think i just found 'greedy cunts' a bit unfair and i'm not surprised they're looking at the option. Ali fought in some dodgy places too, sadly it's...

If i were getting in the ring with somebody that could legitimately kill me that evening i think i'd follow the money too. Staging it in England will depend on having a massive live audience, and there's no guarantee of that any time soon....i reckon we'll see it go to Saudi which does at least...

I'm tempted to bet on Joshua if the odds are enticing enough, personally I probably lean towards Fury winning it, but I don't see it as clearly as you do. Fingers crossed we get to see it and that we get a really, really good contest however it plays out. Joshua has showed a far more cautious...
