Why don’t you nail some on, and let me know?

If Vik had Drogba’s intelligence/finishing and Tore Andre Flo’s technique, he’d be on his way to Real Madrid or Barca. The lad has improved massively since he signed permanently, and there’s a good few years till he hits his prime. There’s serious potential in him, with the right...

If we don’t hear anything in a week or more, I fear our transfer window will a barren one.

A ‘z’ in any Scottish name is silent, isn’t it? I thought that, as in Menzies etc.

To be honest, I thought it was Big Ron commentating, and didn’t realise absorb much of what he was on about. Until it clicked that is was Danny Murphy. That reminds me, the entire BBC presenting staff for the World Cup were very annoying. Especially Lineker, who would descend into wild...

To be honest, I was still pronouncing it ‘yokkerez’ until I heard an audio clip of it pronounced ‘yoh-shear-rez’. My mind was sent back to when David Pleat used to co-commentate on matches, and how he’d butcher the foreign surnames whilst sounding quite amused doing so. Also, Paul Elliot...

I’d be quite touched if someone fell asleep on my shoulder, under two conditions: 1. They have to smell nice. 2. It’s a very attractive lady. Otherwise, they may get nudged onto the floor.

Ok, if I misread anything, that’s my bad. 👍🏻

Do you disagree with the factual statement I made, then?

Totally irrelevant; if Wrexham want it and we don’t, it’s clear cut. We’ve been embarrassed enough times to know that. I’m genuinely hoping that we can cruise past them with about 7-8 first team regulars, as a cup run will lift the spirits somewhat.

I demand silence, or I’ll turn you into a badger. Scoundrel.

I recall an instance of firework related idiocy when I lived in Nuneaton; the, uh, unsavoury lot next door (who seemed to think that Kestrel Super and weed were a staple diet) decided that they couldn’t wait for the cusp of New Year to set their fireworks off, but rather, chose about 2:30pm in...

Is he better than Burroughs, so you think?

Since I can’t attend matches, unless it’s Swansea or Cardiff away, maybe Brizzle, I have no idea who’s the most vocal/loudest player in our team; who is it? In my experience, it’s usually the big gob, flapping his arms around at set pieces who would be ideal captain material. I remember Kevin...

Soz Pete. lol

A few of these are definitely wishful thinking. I think Alan Carr will probably still be cracking the same jokes on TV in 50 years time, knowing our luck.

Just so I’m up to speed (sorry about the double post) do we know of any semi-solid links to players that MR has been looking at?

I’d say keep Kane at RB for now, get his sharpness up, and work on those crosses dude. Seriously. Dabo as a backup, as he’s clearly crocked or unable to maintain match fitness. Or both. Burroughs is still young and naive, so yes, Bidwell needs a backup. CB wise, any idea about how the other...

Would the whole process have gone this far if it wasn’t a legitimate takeover bid? I imagine it’s probably a more complex agreement, than say, Gillingham. The article says that they’re still ‘crossing i’s and dotting t’s’, so won’t that push the EFL’s approval back further than a week?

Exactly this. A good cup run would not only boost the coffers, but it’d give the players a lift too. Our cup run to the Quarter finals in 97-98 might be a distant memory, but being there to pip the Villa at Villa Park was incredible. Different players, different era, but a good cup run can...
