Agree with paragraph 1 but why do you think the one 'clearly bubbling' is Hughes?

Like to get through simply so we could potentially draw Villa at home or one of the really big clubs in the next round. 25,000 fans paying on average £20 would be worth half a million to the club and that's not insignificant

Amazing news. I wonder if Doug has given Mike Ashley or Frazers some equity in the club to help facilitate the deal? Being pragmatic having the assets combined makes us a far more saleable entity in the long run and all parties will know that. Either way excellent for the club and fans.

Don't think it's either or tbh. Of course forums are full of armchair experts giving their opinions on the football players they watch for 40+ games a season. But also just because a Premier league team want to make a bid it doesn't automaticlly mean your a top player. Newcastle brought Gail...

Assuming your post is sarcasm, while it's not a bad sign a top flight club are looking at him and it will no doubt push a players value up. I would not be quite as convinced as you appear to be that premiership interest automatically means a player is top quality.

I see the point your making but i would suggest that anti-racism and LGBTQ+ inclusion represent fundamental human dignity rather than political positions. This topic is very nuanced and it's why is best discussed away from football.

Irregular crossings of the channel are a political and security matter, nothing to do with football. Let's keep it that way.

I dont like him but I am puzzled why they sacked the odious Wilder. There is a long way to go but after losing a playoff final stability is key and the board have gambled! Time will tell of that was a sensible calculation.

Not sure how you train footballing IQ

Was reading Peps comments in the media today after the Wolves match. He is very keen not to have an inflated squad with players who are not going to feature, as he feels it's bad for morale. I hope that sentiment might translate in to us being able to get Doyle on closer to our terms, equally...

In fairness to @Skybluedownunder Rafa did look a bit positionally shakey when he came on and slotted in on the left. He gave the ball away in dangerous areas at least once in a few mins. However, in Rafa's defence it's hard to get into the rhythm of the game when you come on so late and the...

I love how a win makes people glass half full. Had the game ended 3-2 Derby or even 3-3 the defensive situation and conceding 3 goals in a game would be under the microscope. Look at the 3rd Derby goal and the way one of our defenders heads the ball, not away, but towards the danger zone and a...

Looked a bit of a defensive liability for those seconds too!!

We can't turn down 8m for Bobby Thomas. If this was 1030pm on transfer deadline day your point is valid, but with 2 weeks to go 8m is great business and allows us to upgrade in that area of the pitch.

Week 1 have gone for bench boost so no big prices apart from Palmer, but lots of starters who are playing weaker teams at home in week 1.

Fair comment/challenge, and given there was only 0.5 between them in my ratings, I don't really have strong feelings about either of their performances.

He is a confidence player and needs consistent support from the fans to reach the levels he was at in 2023/2024 season. I am not sure given he has 2 goals in 2 matches that he can't go on a run now and I hope Lampard puts some faith in him for the next couple of games at least. BTA seems to be...

Wilson 6 - did nothing wrong KKH 6 - decent first start Thomas 6 - couple of poor passes from the back but solid Bidwell 6 - Not a CB and an accident waiting to happen againt better teams Brau 6.5 - balance and looks like he can deliver really well Allen 7 - full of running and did the basics...

Hope the fans turn out for what might be a far more enjoyable night of football than the weekends slight frustrations

Need a forward who thrives from crosses BTA is not that, not sure Hadji is either!
