We'd done well enough without spending money on that level. Hamer, Sheaf, O'hare, Gyokeres etc. Don't get me wrong I'm delighted that we can spend big money (by our standards) but it's a hell of a lot for a kid who's only been tested In league 1.

When did MR last pay that for a player then? The o ly one I can think of is Simms, and he'd played at this level.

Careful, you'll get branded a hater 😉

Again, l expressed shock at the price, it's more than we got for Hyam who had proven himself at this level. I also trusted MR with all the signings that didn't make the grade, I could list them if your interested. I'm going to back the lad, and support him, and I hope he's the best thing...

Obviously! Looks like Stoke got a real bargain in Rose And Blackburn a steal in Hyam.

Who's moaned??? I think you'll find people are just genuinely shocked at the valuation. But if that's moaning in your book, God help us if he ever has a poor game.

He never cost us 2 million though. That's the point. Can't believe the price quoted is genuine.

Going rate for a guy who's never played above league 1? I know he's young, and a decent prospect etc but £2million??? Eccles is worth 20million in that case!!!

2 million?????? REALLY?????

Would be a great signing g if true, however he's never been on Chelsea's books so I can't see it happening.

MR says he wants 10 players, and everyone knows he's got a couple of bob burning a hole in his pocket. So we're going to be linked with every fucker out there, and agents are going to throw our name into the equation to try and get better terms for their players. With the obvious...

Another positive step. Go Doug!!!

Head and shoulders above our other defenders. Well head at least.

I'd be happy with Connolly, decent CH, but can play anywhere across the back and central midfield. At the very least he'd be a great player to have on the bench. Far more versatile than Rose was.

I think mother nature will step in somehow and do a global reset.

I'm finished with the puns now. I'm off to do the ironing.

Those figures don't break down into age ranges though, that's the problem. Birth rates are plummeting, but the number of pensioners is rapidly growing. That's the issue. When the boomers of the 60's reach retirement, the problem will be unsustainable. When those boomers die, the global...

Some funny golf related comments, I wish I had one to add, I'll think about it while I eat my sandwedge.

It's a fairway to Burnley, and it's a bit rough.

Ever increasing demand for resources. Dwindling rain forests, increasing demand for food and water, increased pollution etc etc. In theory science should provide answers to the problems, but that's rarely happened.
