I wouldnt leave that Seal lying there, Its not a Sea Lion etc... Canny shots! nice eye clarity. Do you add vignetting? I often do and like the effect, looks like you have?

But I wonder how many of them want to be on the list?

He could put a potato in goal and we'd still get fucking beat man

Hull fighting for survival, West Ham able to finish top half, Man U stuck with nowhere to go up or down and us (assuming Arsenal win tomorrow) Fucked. Basically.

Cancelled. We had a table for this, it was their "end of season" dinner for the charity, with some fund raising etc. Anyway, club have knocked it on the head "in light of the current situation and not appropriate for players to be involved in a dinner".

Just Orville news

£20M sounds about right doesnt it. Wouldnt surprise me to see a loan or two in there also.

Or moving if you want the motion effect.

LM rewrites history more than Pardew.

Well, supporter for me would stretch it. Been to a handful of games this season only because my eldest wants to go (7). Poor fucker doesn't know any different. Follower? Sufferer? Maybe more apt. I said they wouldn't get another penny from me years ago and chucking my ticket was made easy as it coincided with my now 5yo coming along. I'll take kids now and again begrudgingly but my stance remains. It just fucks me off so much I don't see the point. My lass hates me watching it as it always flips me in to a foul mood.

Real sociadad at home pre season, he was like a different player. I've only been to 3 home games this season and I can barely recall which, but one of those he looked strong and was putting half decent balls in or cutting in himself. Positive play but yes, perhaps agree it was highlighting how bad the rest were rather than him being outstanding. Kinda why I suggest over a season he remains average.

And that still would leave Rivière (argument for him needing another season and run in the side to really see what he is about), Obertan (one of our best players early season but over a run of games is fairly average) etc. even if we only change the 7 you state, only the last few will command any kind of fee to allow us to invest. Perhaps expect more from our young emerging players with less than the 7 brought in.

One thing I think is that while I expect new faces, it will be a limited number coming in and not a huge overhaul. We couldn't bring in enough for an overhaul so i at least expect "some" of the shite to be moved on and some to stay with a couple of more decent players needing to be moved on to generate funds to spend. If we want to replace the likes of Williamson & Gouf with decent options at the back and up front then we'd have to likely lose the likes of Sissoko & Tiote. Don't think the latter will be a huge loss and the formers place arguably taken up by the sometimes fit (?) De Jong. Full expect the squad to be "thin" and some cut price additions, one or two decent (by our standard) allowing us to continue to float mid table.

Thats the thing Im curious about. Should see when full accounts are out. Everyone expected bigger profits posted (whoop-de-fucking-do) but the supposed increase in costs doesnt make sense (if that was accurate as I cant see reference to it). From what Ive seen so far: Revenue up 95 to 129M - Interested to see the breakdown. Much of that increase I expect is TV income. Id like to see match day and season ticket breakdown. Commercial income up 17 to 25M (sponsorship), 78M was TV so 26M left for the rest. Sounds about the same as usual? Nothing taken out by MA which really isn't a surprise as he retains his stranglehold and argument for free SD advertising.

Belated, but cheers! [emoji16]

thats class

Aye. I'd recommend Tat2Ink at Denton Burn. I get all my stuff done by Kev there.

You still would / Wood.

I use Plex but on my popcorn hour. Its excellent like. I have photo;s, films, tv shows etc on a drive near my PC. I the popcorn is on my network so I can watch anything on it via the plex app on the TV but also, using the app on any Ipad etc. It works when Im away from home so long as they're all switched on and the kids can watch films on the ipad anywhere etc. Dont use it for music as I use spotify. Plex also downloads all of the artwork and ratings etc for each thing and displays it in a funky menu.

They spelled gold wrong.

Stepping stone, exactly what we are these days and are expected to enjoy the players while we have them and expect them to leave as soon as they string some form together. Siem De Jong, like a new signing....

Looking back he likes people he knows around him. With such this role needing to work with him I'll be suprised if he brings an outsider in. In my opinion he has to, to freshen things up and would likely need to be from Europe, someone who would accept the set up. But, for MA I think Carver / Stone is an easy, cheap and potentially viable option that ticks his boxes. Hope I'm wrong as it smacks of no ombition (which we know isnt there anyway, not football success anyway)

Managed to get to the game with the bairn and this is pretty much spot on. Was a good first half and it was one of the best games I've seen Riviere have. He had good movement and was getting in some good positions. She he didnt score but for a good save from their keeper and a good chance but the ball seemed to get under his feet. Very odd to take him off and Armstrong then had something like 5 touches the rest of the game. Dummett played well in the centre a month ago or so, so it seemed obvious to push him inside and Haidara has been solid at LB before so it seemed an easy decision. Especially when at the time we were 3-2 up and needed to protect the lead in a half when we were constantly losing possession. Alnwick. Well, wasnt all down to him but certainly that last goal he should have got down at pushed it around the post but he didnt seem to get down quick enough or have the strength to protect and his hands flapped away. Really poor second half but credit to Burnley for pushing us. On Carver, I expect him to stay until the summer. It gives Ashley a good chance to see what he can do as he would be the perfect option for him. He is desperate for the role and would accept however MA wants it structured. A new person would likely ask for more things their way. He'll also be cheap. He doesnt need him to be able to push the club on, just maintain that mid table float. Be interesting to see the next few games and see if he changes anything tactically, injuries allowing.

that last one
