  1. I think I’d rather go and see a Wraith talk-in. At least you’d get a laugh at the absurdity maybe. Not that I’d be parting with cash to go to either like
  2. Similar situation where it’s easier said than done though. Who’s going to loan a good central midfielder in January? No point in just getting another body in for the sake of it if they’re not of the required quality. Then you have clubs like Chelsea refusing to loan players to us
  3. Bobby Robson: More Than A Manager is on Prime. It’s class but if you watch it you might end up with some dust in your eyes
  4. He was on course to run about 10k iirc. Nothing out of the ordinary and he only played for about two thirds of the match anyway
  5. I love 3 Feet High and Rising. RIP Trugoy the Dove
  6. Getting the first trophy would be massive for all sorts of reasons. What I really taking issue with was the assumption the club made a conscious decision not to get someone like Maddison in last month (not you but it does seem to be what sone fans think). It’s far more likely he wasn’t available (like Gordon in the summer). I know people will think letting Wood and Shelvey go without direct replacements was a risk. But not taking the opportunity to get rid was maybe a bigger risk to the long / medium term plan. I.e. being saddled with them and it preventing getting as many players in come the summer. Especially given the latter’s extension clause. I know what you mean about fabs not being rational but it’s the job of the people running the club to take a more objective view
  7. We signed a player for £40m. It’s not a missed chance if other targets weren’t available. People go on like you just make a bid for someone and the other club let’s them go just like that. It doesn’t work like that. We’ve made huge strides and are living with legacy of being a zombie club for over a decade. We’re hampered by ffp because our revenue is a joke. We’re performing way above expectations.
  8. Would love to see them fuck up and Man City win the league. What a bunch of entitled wankers they are. It would be the one time that little cunt off Arsenal tv or whatever it’s called would be worth watching
  9. If we wanted Maddison and he wasn’t available (but is in the summer) then waiting rather than spending c. £60m for the sake of it was the right thing to do. Obviously that’s conjecture but it’s not exactly an unrealistic scenario
  10. He’s an absolute cunt 👍🏻
  11. A big club would’ve got that decision
  12. The football they play is what they inaccurately say we play. Yet we play football that’s shit but theirs is great They looked decent (but second best) against a Fulham team missing some of their best players. Get some perspective ffs
  13. We play awful football in the same way the stuff they play is the best they’ve seen in 40-odd years.
  14. There was a documentary years ago with David Elleray mic’ed up. I seem to remember Tony Adams and co giving him dog’s abuse but all he took umbrage with was being called a cheat
  15. Heenz Beenz are vastly overrated
  16. That Robson Green series is about as inoffensive as it gets.
