I just sold positions and am holding cash in my broker account... which pays no interest. Sat waiting for the fall I expect to happen and to reinvest.

I sold off about 50% of my equity positions about 4 weeks ago - just from looking at how toppy the Dow Jones was. Moved as much as I could to cash and to a bond fund in my pension where cash isn't an option. Bonds are not ideal as I think inflation is coming - I won't say why to avoid...

It's a farce isn't it? That thousands of people can make or lose a fortune on whatever a single man tweets.

I read a Jeremy Clarkson article in a newspaper recently. He wrote that he used to work with a chap called Wayne Bruce... and everyone called him Manbat. As you were.

Corrected it for you.

Is it either / or? We can sign either a kid with promise or a proven striker. Nobody else. Seems unlikely but I know nothing about football so maybe you're right.

He has a British accent. Sounds like he may not have been in NZ that long... maybe he just wants to spend more time there before moving back.

Why don't you want him? Is it because you think it was random without watching him play? Or is it because he plays in NZ? I doubt the first and the second is no reason at all.

Assuming that we aren't stupid and file our accounts before the transfer window opens, it will stop us signing someone before the transfer window opens.

Burger hasn't made any errors but nearly got beaten at his far post with a good shot from outside the area... it hit the post and rebounded back into play. There's a 19 year old Notts Forest player on loan for Lincoln playing well: Brennan Johnson. But the longer Licoln fail to score I can...

It will be the Coventry BS arena by the time he sees us. He's lost the plot.

I imagine people looked at recent form - Barnsley had a great second half of the season. But Swansea had beaten them twice in the league I think. I was happy to take their money for the first round. I'm not really interested in who wins eventually - I just look for generous odds and thought...

7/1

Brentford now out to nearly 5/2. That's too long IMO - I think they'll beat B'mouth at home.

I don't agree. Imagine how the game would be played if there were no offside. It would be like the Swansea Barnsley game last night only worse.

I've switched over - not enjoying the Barnsley-Swansea game. What a way to play football.

I feel the same way about parachute payments... but what do you do? The Premier League is such that teams have to pay big wages to try and stay up - but if they don't they cannot get rid of the high-paid players fast enough.

Brentford 6/4 to win the play-offs. Bournemouth 7/2. And yet watching this game, I'd say B'mouth are edging it as the most likely to score - in the first half at least.
