    Mexican stand off. He’s waiting for the owners to sack him and pay up his contract. They are waiting in the hope that he jumps ship to another club before they have to cough up.

    There’s a lot to agree with in this post 1) the Leeds away game was a disgrace. The contrast from the previous season when we set up very defensively but gave it a go and managed a very good draw was embarrassing. This season we pitched up hoping to keep the score down and didn’t. It was the...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    This might be true if the rumours about selling Thomas are true, but I can’t believe we’d be in the running for Michael Keane.

    season ticket sales

    They won a European trophy and I believe ST holders for next season were part of a priority purchase scheme for Euro games. All of which might have encouraged retention.

    Transfer Rumour Emil Riis

    Neither Dovin nor Kitching were in the starting XI that Lampard inherited. They both became first choice. Whereas Bassette started the two games immediately before Lampard took over. Remember the eulogy from Lampard about Sakamoto? Players need to train hard and catch the manager’s eye with a...

    Carrick gone from Middlesborough

    Always seemed like a decent bloke who got his team playing in a pleasant manner (he succeeded Wilder). Don’t think his team ever beat us…. Still stand by the assertion that I’ve never met a Boro fan who was a dickhead. I know that there must be some but they’ve always seemed reasonably friendly...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    The one thing that makes me sanguine about the Wrexham project not working is that they still have Parkinson in charge. Dinosaur football. Given that Presley was appointed at Dundee yesterday that Bradford-Cov game where they nearly came to blows in the stands seems like a sliding doors moment.

    He was sent off in the first minute at Cardiff in a match that we incredibly went on to win 1-0.
