I think it's been an encouraging window but as we have alot of unknowns coming in its also difficult for me to 'expect' success. Our big problems last season were an inability to score, coupled with an iffy keeper whose mistakes became critical in games we weren't taking chances in. Neither...

Yeah that sounds familiar. I'd presume they are either not doing the same this time around or we may be looking at a later kit launch during July.

I can relate to the slight apprehension given that we know very little about them. Overall i'm happy that we seem to be bringing in players at League 1 level and are clearly working to a plan. This is not the chaotic approach of picking through the leftovers in mid-July/early August.

Sounds similar to Jobello in terms of being a tall winger, perhaps Robins has decided we need more overall physicality this season? That would also match with bringing McFadzean in at the back.

Was there a 'launch' type event last time that was advertised in advance? If so then i'd presume there's not going to be this year if nothing is being publicised yet.

People are just safety obsessed these days, Kabul is lovely in the Summer.

Not hitting the bastard at all would still top my list of 'things to do when sailing through an ice field at inadvisably high speed'.

Who asked you to stick your oar in!?

A new stadium being built is realistic in that there's almost certainly a suitable site for it somewhere in the city. However I'd be sceptical that it would sustainable in a city this size (given the competition from the Ricoh for those non-football events). Given the previous lack of success in...

Massive, sweeping generalisations are all the rage these days. You're either a pussyhole snowflake bitch or a knuckle-dragging fascist.

It's certainly a good move for Thomas, i expect he will get plenty of time on the pitch. I hope he does well, he was showing plenty of potential whilst with us so i can see why Barnsley have taken a punt on him. If he finds an end product they will make a fortune when a PL club swoops for him.

That's a big show of faith from Barnsley, must be a considerable chunk of their budget for the season?

Ah great, some more divisive bullshit is just what we need as a fanbase. People are entitled to support the club in whatever way they want. Im a ST holder but wont be renewing to go to every game at St Andrews, ill go when i can and want to. If other people see fit not to go (or to go to every...

Hopefully this makes those fights more likely, but then again this is boxing so i expect not! Wilder and Fury have been just as likely to fight absolute bums recently so i wont hold out too much hope. Whyte vs Rivas should be good though.

The speed of Ruiz's combinations and counterpunching was a real issue for AJ and he'll have to box far better to overcome that. This wasnt the same as Hasim Rahman landing one lucky punch on Lewis. I do think he's fully capable of redeeming himself in any rematch but it's not a foregone conclusion.

Who would you have wanted him to have fought before now? Ive been massively frustrated that we haven't seen him fight Fury or Wilder but im not convinced that's entirely his or Hearn's fault. I do think this defeat will make those other two more inclined to make a fight though, they'll certainly...

Do you have any figures for how much either property has turned over for the past few years? That would give you a better idea of viability as a business. You'd need to balance that against the outgoings you know you'd have on a mortgage/business loan and your own living expenses.

Yeah i heard that and thought the same. I enjoy the 5live podcasts with Bunce and Costello.

Yeah most likely tie him knots and frustrate him easily for 12 rounds. Joshua has sufficient power to knock him down if he can land...but on showings to date he'll struggle to do that.

The money drives most of this 'marination' crap that leads to the top guys avoiding each other for years. With any luck AJ can win a UK rematch and then take on Wilder/Fury, he'll really have to up his game first though!
