    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There’s been a fair few TV debates out the way without having to face scrutiny, hasn’t there.

    Callum O'Hare

    Take this with the pinch of salt it’s intended to be taken with, but if we did move Sheaf on and managed to secure some of the names floated then we could potentially be looking at a very strong and deep squad…

    Callum O'Hare

    If we can keep him as the specialist 10 in the squad and move Palmer on then I’d be keen. Shedding Palmer off the wage bill would probably see us not far off a neutral position across the two.

    Not for me. He was decent but not particularly brilliant on the ball.

    Things that annoy you

    May have already been said (and possibly even by me!) but… Uber drivers are without doubt the most dangerous drivers on the road.

    God it annoys me. Might start a petition to rename it the Registration Window.

    UEFA EURO 2024

    You’re reading this wrong - I’m not overly critical of Southgate. I get why he values defensive solidity above attacking flair. But (and I appreciate I’m being slightly churlish) Man City play with a single pivot and 2 attacking midfielders. We could replicate that setup and have some real fun...

    UEFA EURO 2024

    Absolutely get that the successful teams at international level tend to be defensively solid, but fuck I’d love to see us properly go at a tournament.

    Championship thread 24/25!

    The point of the parachute payments is to essentially protect a club who may have high earners on their wage bill and may not be able to shift. What we’re seeing more and more is clubs coming down and mortgaging against their future parachute payments to give them a warchest to get back up. The...

    UEFA EURO 2024

    Literally the only time I’d even think about using him at CM would be if we were playing a counter attacking game, but even then I’d be concerned by his defensive frailty.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Tend to disagree re the Tories winning in spite of him. I think his presence attracted a lot of support from plenty who would not traditionally vote Tory because “Boris Lad”.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    That is genuinely my concern. We’ve seen with both Johnson and Trump how much the cult of personality can cut through. If Farage does indeed make a play at the Tory leadership I fear we may be headed that way. As it happens I also had a look at Reform’s accounts - huge director’s loan position...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I get the distinct feeling we’re looking at a one-term Labour government where pretty much everything improves across the board but the country doesn’t accept it because ‘vibes’. Bit like America.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Yes but you’re not running for Prime Minister. I expect my PM to not only know the “price of milk” but the price at each individual shop in Britain.

    Victor Torp

    So you use stats, albeit very subjective ones. I tend to hop on FotMob and see what their statistical breakdown is compared to others in that respective league playing in that position. The idea that stats are worthless is for the birds; if that’s the case, then why do clubs have data analysis...

    Summer transfer window 2024

    Long shot but if you said we could sign Browne, Sanches and Stamenic if we lost Sheaf, I’d take it.
