  1. Whether he is what we need is still unclear but if forest do come down even with parachute payments they will need a massive fire sale to stay within FFP rules, they have signed around 30 players since promotion.
  2. The amount Man Utd pay for any player is massively inflated, they'd probably pay £2 milliom for a new cleaning lady.
  3. Was he caught sneaking a pork pie into the changing rooms?
  4. If McGree is back and playing by then and we are in contention for promotion then I would think he has a very tough call to make. The others are more marginal.
  5. he effectively stopped playing footbal 6 years ago when he left to join Chelsea
  6. Only to return in another 6 months? Wouldn't bet against either eventuality.
  7. Must have missed that one on my last visit to Poundstretcher. Was it behind the 3 pack of cuppa-soups?
  8. Yet another potential signing who has never scored. When will we learn.
  9. Before the match started the Man Utd supporter serving me at my local asked what I thought the score would be. In a throwaway remark I said 6-0 to Liverpool. I left when it got to 4-0 as he was lining up the empties to throw at me 😂
  10. Loved the article about "Keegans Lament" following a 0-0 draw at Anfield. Always remember the match as I travelled alone across from Leeds and mistakenly bought a ticket for the Kop. They soon sussed I was a Boro fan after I swore profusely when David Mills fell over his own feet when clear of their defence. they were amazingly friendly and chatted throughout what was a really terrible match.
  11. Great list but with one glaring omission - the legend that is Uwe Fuchs
  12. I can't see West Brom wanting Mowatt back simply due to their parlous financial state. Livermore going is the sign of things to come sadly for them. If they dont make the premiership they will be looking at more cuts before their parachute payments run out next season. They are already borrowing off the same people who "funded" Derby County (MSD Holdings).
  13. Ten Hag was quite right to impose a punishment which sent a message to his club's players. A lot of managers wished they could have done the same. Sadly football's biggest players now seem to think they are bigger than their clubs and the game itself, especially at Man Utd. Having said that, Marcus Rashford probably is not one of them and he has my respect for both his footballing reaction and his personal reaction to the slap on the wrist. Still hate Man Utd though.
  14. Another nail in the coffin for the match day. Lower crowds, less atmosphere at games, and even less chance to show owners, managers and players alike what we think of them (good and bad).
  15. You have got to love a board that can create 21 pages on a postponed match 😅
  16. So your theory is that to get promoted you need a *** start to the season.
  17. I think a lot of members share your opinion, but are scared to endorse it because of the sort of reaction you have just received
  18. We having been playing for the last few years without anything resembling a striker
  19. The coming season's Folarin Balogun. Brilliant at younger age levels but not yet ready to step up
  20. I can't see Levy having prawn cocktail or smokey bacon either for that matter.
  21. Get Lenihan in and move Dijksteel to defensive midfielder, solving two problems in one go. An extra centre back if needed and competition for Howson - if he resigns.
  22. My you lot are tough on Nathan Wood. He will be only 20 this month and plays in a position where typically players only reach maturity a lot later than other outfield players.
  23. And in late news the linesman's flag has just gone up a minute ago and our second has been chalked off
