In a nutshell, this is part of the reason I packed in. Have been getting the urge to get back playing recently but don’t fancy a broken ankle off some fella who’s still steaming from the night before.

Very good technical player. That Millwall performance along with Maddison, Armstrong and O’Brien was pure class. I’d agree with that. No issue with Murphy as he was clearly a good player, but I think it changed the dynamic of the frontline who had gelled really well early on.

If they’re owned personally then you’d have to effectively sell it to a Ltd Co and face the stamp duty hit, though given the reduced rate currently it’s something that’s been prevalent in the last 9 months or so. If starting, make sure everything is done via Ltd Co. Also easier when it comes to...

Isn’t Sibley’s selling point that he isn’t dynamic? Haven’t we had enough of ‘dynamic’ openers?

Like to think I know a bit about this. What are you wanting to know?

To be fair(!), one of the reasons we got him initially over others was that Wolves see him as a wing back and wanted him to be developing in that position rather than as a winger for Shrewsbury. I find it a shame as the first 5 games or so he looked brilliant. His decreased involvement has...

Correlation does not equal causation.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-55784199 An interesting (and mildly concerning) quote from the above article: For the sake of a few weeks, why the fuck shouldn’t the lower ‘at-risk’ people have slower access to the vaccine? I’ve been concerned about this for a while, as I know others have. My...

What’s with the natural predisposition in this country towards 442? Why is it that, in your words, any other formation could only secure a 0-0 at best? Bizarre.

Don’t really do the normal lottery but I do enter the daily Sky Lotto (linked to SkyBet). Free to enter, jackpot of £25k except for Friday when it’s £250k. Obviously there as a loss-leader to tempt you into betting but as long as you have the right mentality you’re fine. They also offer one free...

This isn’t a development signing, not in the traditional sense anyway. He will be in the first team squad.

They don’t win games, that’s why they’re down there.

Ben Wilson isn’t young, he’s older than Marosi.

The fitness thing wasn’t a myth at all, he visibly looked about a stone lighter at Sheff Utd than at any stage with us.

As said, easy to point at this with hindsight and say it was a poor signing, but he clearly has ability. Struggles with the tactical side of the game and lacks fitness, but it’s not like he’s a complete sack of shite.

I checked that out, he’s contracted til 2022. To talk through my thinking on the CB situation, I think Fadz has done reasonably well but to play the style of play we want to, we have to push up the pitch and as such we need quicker CBs. He will be 34 by the time next season starts and I’d...

Feels like a rather astute signing. Talk in that article of him being very attacking so feels like he would excel in a wing back role. Be interested to know whether he will be considered first choice for next season.

Ellery Cairo. Christ. I remember Lee Hildreth’s dad giving him a bit of shit at a reserve game and he stopped and offered him his boots to play instead of him.

Just for clarity, there’s: Camp (imminent) McFadzean Kelly Hyam - 1-year option Bakayoko Jones Thompson Biamou Out of those, I think I’d exercise Hyam’s 1-year option and would consider 1-year extensions for Kelly and Biamou. However, I get the feeling Matty James is coming in to replace Kelly...

I’m sure if you message Dave Boddy and offer to pay £110k for your match pass he’ll ring Rupert Murdoch himself to cancel.
