I hope so, he looks fucked.

I don't think it's clear at the minute that he's either. When we were signing him he came with a heavy caveat that he was raw and needed a lot of work. He's not gonna get that work there.

I'm pleased we didn't get Sesko tbh. I know he's on a shit side playing for a shit manager, but he looks way more limited a player than Woltemade.

A very wise man.

The club took a risk tbf, cos it could just as easily have ended by bringing Bayern back to the table, and us looking like the bridesmaids again. Fortunately Stuttgart and us were very happy to do the deal completely on the sly.

Aye from what I read/heard, we always liked him but we had assumed he was unavailable/was going to Bayern if he was going anywhere. I think was not on the list at all for those reasons.

Chinos and Chelsea boots, of course. Just your classic match attire.

Absolutely wild btw that the dress code has to specifically point out that you'll be refused entry if you turn up wearing crocs.

I didn't enter cos I couldn't go. I did enter Bilbao but have since discovered I'm gonna be corporate hospitality boy that night. So on the off chance I'm successful, I could get a ticket for someone if anyone fancies it? Overwhelmingly likely that I'll get fuck all like, but let me know...

PRECISELY!

Tbf this was from his West End run as the artful dodger.

I dunno like, he looks years away from a first team starter to me.

The Poppins Club has released this statement: We don't care what you DIRTY BOYS think, we do not know this reference.

Sounds like ewerk is talking some chim-chim-cheree to me.

I'm PROUD to say I don't know what the reference is. Anyone else in the Mary Poppins Club?

Lock up your hot dogs!

Downie says "from what I'm hearing" there's a chance he could not go to AFCON. We'll see obviously but would be a welcome development.

Fucking OUTRAGEOUS patter to be lumping me in with CT in terms of taste. I honestly can't recall if I even watched the second series so can't help you I'm afraid!

No dramas. It was an impact injury, there is no ACL issue at all, apparently.

Did Leazes' daughter get married?

You'd want someone standing in front of him when the photographer does the rounds too.

There were unsubstantiated rumours on here last week that you got humped by your mate on holiday, but I didn't see you spreading that one around.

Same. I think the CL ballot must have opened at 12 and the lass's one at 1 or something. Just incredible planning from the geniuses in charge of ticketing.

Delighted to see that Wirtz has taken a similar plummet as Isak in that Athletic piece. Also the centre half we famously overpayed for has jumped from 70th to 10th and now looks like a "Rolls-Royce type". It's almost like Howe and co know what they're doing.

I don't know about that like. He's an excellent player, we wouldn't be saying any of this if he was still here. I'm just enjoying how much he's struggling now, and how much everyone is talking about his struggles, but I don't really expect it'll continue long term.
