    Gareth Bale retired

    Personally, I think it’s the right move, as he’s been a shadow of his former self for years now. At the World Cup he was a passenger, and I felt that about Ramsey too. In his prime though, he was generally unplayable. What a player he was. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Not proud of my Welsh heritage this week...

    Doug King Takeover

    I was off in my own head, just imagining what he ought to say. 🤣 I agree though, no bullshit on transfer funds or the ground situation, we had enough of that with Tiny Tim.

    Doug King Takeover

    “I understand that the fans have been left on tenterhooks over the course of the last few months, as we’ve finalised the details of this convoluted takeover. Thank you for your patience. My next act as owner, is to give Mr Robins a mighty war chest fit; one that would fell a rampaging rhino due...

    Doug King Takeover

    Has Doug done any radio or TV interviews since yesterday? I would have thought it was high time we had a few assurances.

    Doug King Takeover

    I’ll be convinced by Kings actions as an owner and (chairman?) regarding the direction we go with transfers etc, before outwardly saying ‘this is great’ or ‘we’re doomed!’. It’s easy for us, as a fan base, to instantly go from one spectrum to the next, as we’ve had a pretty dismal 2001-2018...

    Transfer Rumour Outgoings?

    That’s true, sadly. If King can provide the resources, there should be a lot of activity in the summer.

    Transfer Rumour Outgoings?

    If Wagehorn (yes, intentional) would drop down to League 1 or 2, he’s got a good few years left in him. Obviously, a dramatic pay cut to allow it to happen, but he’d be an asset to a mid table L1 club. Kane, meh, given the situation it’s only a matter of time before he’s gone. If we farmed out...

    This is really starting to do my tits right in… Think we’ll be blocking the switchboard at Samaritans if this doesn’t happen.

    Addictions & Demons

    I know firsthand how destructive addiction can be, but I won’t go into that; suffice to say, it nearly cost me my life. Also, my dad is in a position where addiction has cost him everything but the roof over his head, and is basically being forced to even allow a carer in so he doesn’t fall...

    Gyokeres to Everton- Two in exchange?

    Are Leeds officially in for Vik again? My stepdad just mentioned it, whether it’s another tenuous link from Midlands Today or something, I don’t know.

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Just started watching The Ozarks, what a grim show that is! Also watched Bird Box, which was a nice slant on the survival horror theme. John Malkovic was at his macabre best.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Burnley vs Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 14th Jan

    I can’t see us strangling their attack, not without Fadz leading the defence. His presence is sorely missed. We’re not the best at shithousery, but I think if we frustrate them, close down, tight marking, we may be able to catch them on the counter. If we turn up, 0-0 or 1-1. If we don’t, well...

    First that other troll brings up Hogwarts, and now you do. Do you share a basement, or something?

    Gyokeres to Everton- Two in exchange?

    Probably not, but Vik seems sensible enough not to make a hasty move that isn’t going to better his career. Saying that, he’ll probably be a Toffee tomorrow, now that I’ve said that.

    Gyokeres to Everton- Two in exchange?

    I think Vik will have to think seriously about any move to a Premiership that’s in the bottom 3 or above. He won’t just strut into the first team and start banging goals in, especially at Everton. A negative move like that would stunt his skill growth, and affect his confidence. He’s better off...

    It was just a poor generalisation, I suppose, which I shouldn’t do as a Social Care degree student. 🤣

    Things that annoy you

    I have tried that, however it usually ends up with them overtaking dangerously. I tend to adopt the idea if it’s a 30, therefore making it safer all round.

    Things that annoy you

    People that decide to tailgate you in appalling weather, mainly on 50 or 60 stretches. Literally, about 4ft from my bumper, with their poxy headlights dazzling me in the rear view mirror. Just what I need, consistently, it always makes motoring such fun.

    Positives from yesterday

    In that time we capitulated to Swansea, got stuffed by Sheff Utd, and put out a very tired team to get two unconvincing points against Cardiff and Bristol. Then there’s the continuous issue of the squad, the takeover, then that shower of shit yesterday. Logically, we’re not improving. We’re...
