Nah, the long term injury was usually the catalyst to coming up with the formation that worked.

I think the other advantage King might see is that whoever follows MR is on a hiding to nothing, so maybe giving the job short-term to someone dispensable isn't necessarily the worst thing.

I think loan fees (and even paying wages) should be banned and have to be covered by the parent club. Make them think twice about just hoovering up talent from lower league clubs and also might put the players development front and centre of a loan. I mean, a PL club could pick up a player for...

Not what coke is usually cut with is it?

Just wondering if people think academies are private schools? Paid for by the state but run separately.

Have to be a very large plinth so people didn't smack their head on it. Or have it attached to one of the barriers at the entrance/exit of the car park

It will ultimately end up going the same way as Twitter, but may be an improvement for now (I don't use stuff like twitter FWIW)

That's good too. Minuet is a breed of cat.

Runs around a lot and scores the odd belter but too much missing from his overall game.

But many would argue that X is now a complete mess, with no censure for saying absolutely untrue things and bots running rampant. It is also losing users.

Even though I called him a Bond villain, I don't think he's 'evil'. He's had a privileged upbringing, and a bit of luck with some of his ventures. That has clearly given him self belief (some warranted, some not) but I maintain someone with his nuerodivergence isn't best placed to run...

Gnomeo and Minuet

Mt Rushmore style on the side of the Arena

We're keeping the set-up, just probably not the personnel.

Taken we a while to wade through this thread but this was my take. I think there was truth in what Doug was saying, but it certainly wasn't the whole truth and I felt it was carefully edited to paint him in a better light, which I guess is hardly surprising. The thing about MR and AV falling...

Sounds like the poshest gang war in history. Retribution not for cutting someone, but for doing it with the wrong knife.

Surely it should be made from handbags?

He's a Bond villain. Undoubtedly got some very clever ideas with technical stuff but he comes across a someone who has absolutely no understanding of people. Hence why he spends his time around machines - he can make sense of them with set rules that always apply in every situation. People...

Agree entirely. It's dehumanising and doesn't give the impression you see them as valued individuals and employees. Maybe it is a new 'buzz word' in industry but I've never heard anyone say that before. However, it probably is appropriate for King's thoughts towards the players - just things...

Well we all know what he'd get called if it went tits up don't we...
