I suspect Shelvey was keen to commit his future because no one else was interested in him

I think at this point in time we can only dream of mediocrity. Its panning out pretty much as people predicted: a season of struggle with shit football and relegation looking likely at some point. We’d be favourites to go down if it weren’t for some jammy results. I guess its better to be lucky than good, which is just as well in Brewceys case.

Mike loves a gamble...

Whilst using 3 different left backs in the same game no doubt

If you were out walking your dog like everyone else, these wouldnt be an issue

Periodic relegation is part of our reality. I’d feel massively conflicted if we had a cup run, cos I don’t want either the fat cunts ownership or his choice of manager to be validated. On the other hand I’d love a good cup run....

Expected a hiding and got one. We’re a bottom half sort of team.

I don’t think ashley needs the fans to stay in the PL but he does need them as wallpaper for TV. We won’t be offered the same number of TV matches nor get the same exposure for his shitty company without the ground being packed out. Also the general public realise is something is very wrong when the fans stay away, and pundits cant get away with trotting out the same old shit about how much ashley has done for the club and the usual cliches. He’s proved that by offering free tickets/cheap deals to get people in. Large swathes of empty seats on TV are pretty much the only thing that hurts him and his shitty brand.

That won’t be a problem. Your team has to have the ball in order for you to give it away....

I honestly think we’ll only be free of Ashley when he dies. Hope I’m wrong.....would I rather have a middle eastern despot own our club? If he’s going to spunk huge amounts of cash on the team, stadium and facilities, you bet I would. Better than being a zombie club under Ashleys ownership, never aiming for more than survival with nothing to look forward to

This, sadly

Nothing Ashley does makes sense when it comes to us. In his case you can’t use words like strategic and planning except in an ironic sense

Groundhog day tbh. Every transfer window like clockwork....

As if thats in doubt. He’d leave us in a heartbeat. And it’d be as funny as fuck, please let it happen

We cant hope to compete with a club like Wolves according to the current regime. Or any other club for that matter.

Bruce is looking more and more like Arthur Mullard with each game

aka “value for money” If we really did spunk 40 million on joelinton, I doubt there will be much spending on transfers if any.

The articles posted by J69 reminds me of john dahl tomasson, someone who we all thought was a dog shit striker until he moved to a club that actually understood where and how to play him. Im not saying he will have as successful a career as JDT but surely Joelinton can’t be this bad.

Players just need to harden up and play through these soft tissue injuries, just like our old skool managers did in their day

Happy 2020 everybody! We’re first cab off the rank in NZ. Hope you and yours have a happy and healthy new year and new decade.

Robson bandwagon jumper!

I predict this will be a short lived thread

Disgusting. Terrible for the families that they will never get justice for what happened

Surprised it wasn’t more than two. Par for the course really. Assuming the course is a fucking shit show presided over by a pissed up washed up dinosaur with a sheeps head.
