    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    He was fixed to go to a higher league last season but got injured. Grimsby took him back even though still injured, as they were so impressed with him.

    Early Pre-season Final Table Predictions

    Ipswich smashed us with their second team in the cup. You never look any further than the parachute payment clubs who will be at the top unless Leicester have a massive deduction. I think Luton were an anomaly last season. We have a good squad but will teams just park the bus? Our end of season...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Vik is clearly kicking off to get a move. Reports say Vik is willing to take a hit on his percentage of the fee which shows a player who backs his own talent. Think Sporting will have to accept a drop on the amount they want or have a very unhappy player. Probably still be a substantial sum but...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Vic looks increasingly like a done deal, but unfortunately, the fee is no longer as high as we hoped. Gus may still move but we cannot rely on it happening, as last season was the optimum time for him to go further up the football pyramid. The fringe players are currently our squad, so to move...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Wenger said building a new ground put Arsenal back years as they could no longer compete on transfers. 60k is peanuts for a ground these days. Most big projects go way over budget as well. Many new grounds have put clubs in trouble. Ours did. Think the Madejski Stadium was a particularly...

    What if …….

    As we are at the moment looks fine, depending on the extent of Haji's injury. We need Mason Clark fully fit and firing. The worry is we lose MVE and don't upgrade elsewhere. Also, Rudoni leaving late in the window may be very disruptive. We need to improve our away record. Cannot afford to have...

    We’ll Live and Die

    I am not adverse to the traditions of brass bands, although I much prefer the New Orleans versions (see Dirty Dozen Brass Band). The Colliery bands were great but Thatcher put paid to them. Still plenty around in truncated forms in carnivals. If you are old enough, you will remember brass bands...

    Transfer Rumour Tyrhys Dolan

    Virtually all of our players did well at some time last season. Some dropped off and underperformed at times. Like most managers, Frank wants to upgrade or provide cover/competition. Toffolo seems strange as we are top heavy at LB/LWB. This idea you can just offload in contract players is...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Eccles was in team that got us to the play off final and the FA Cup semi where we were robbed. He played some of the most minutes in recent seasons every year. Was brilliant at Sunderland when he came on as sub in the play off semi and was looking really good before he got injured. He put...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Read somewhere we were 18th budget wise, then we sold Vic and Gus, had a good cup run and jumped to 8th. If those two move on again, with increased gates, playoff income, merch, matchday income and increased TV revenue, we must hopefully be above half-way. Three parachute payment clubs and...

    Viveash joins Boro

    It was all over social media. As I recollect it was the Pysio, a cleaner, Robin's wife and one of the backroom staff. There are a lot of gullible people out there who will believe what they want. Probably right, started as a joke and took on a life of its own. Amazing the number of people across...

    People were saying he had bullied young players, was a football dinosaur and was shagging various members of staff.

    Viveash joins Boro

    Ok apologies not shit but definitely many saying change is a good thing. Loads calling him a football dinosaur, it was time for a change. Of course they will both be revered as much as George and John I believe. I have always maintained looking at Adi's history, that he is a brilliant coach...
