    Not far off what I'd do. No problem playing a strong starting XI but want to see a lot of the youngsters on the bench and given some minutes. Main stipulation for me are that if they're not going to be here next year (unless we are going to try and get a loanee back or considering signing them...

    A lot of Jealous Guy's out there that he's a Working Class Hero. ;) Match threads are usually full of Instant Karma.

    Budget

    I agree. When they took over we were in with a chance of going back up but the club finances were so poor that was hampering it from achieving it. So a relatively modest investment to buy a struggling club and buy some decent players could see a quick turnaround for a very large profit if we'd...

    Budget

    It's not technically keeping on it's own two feet. It is requiring a cash boost from the owners to cover the cashflow shortfall every year and without that we'd not be in a position to continue, Arguably in the last couple of years with the owners taking some of the money out to repay their...

    Budget

    Technically it isn't true because they'd always be willing to sell if someone offered silly money. Reality is no-one will. Can't see them selling up because they won't get what they want. No-one is going to pay up what the owners are owed + interest for a club that is lower end Championship...

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    Those two especially, but I'd like to add Pask into that. Been so unlucky with injury and not featured much at all in his favoured position. Has a little bit of pace as well.

    Most influential signing

    He was signed as development, but prob a bit closer to 1st team than others like Allassani, Walters, Bosma etc.

    Bayliss - PNE perspective

    If they're ex-pro's that don't see much of us (if at all) and are going on a single performance and maybe a quick search pre-game suggests he's someone to look out for they may not be the greatest overall judge. I remember Barry Quinn got picked out for special praise in a MOTD once and many...

    U18/U21 Development Thread

    Not involved in the set-up or whatever but I think these are the current second years technically. Bapaga (ST - signed pro til 2023) Burroughs, G (CB - seems to be captain, played most of the games and featured a few times for U23 so decent chance of a contract) Costa (CM - not featured much at...

    We are safe!

    But surely there comes a time when every team realises that and plays the way you don't want even if it's not their preferred way. If a less able team can beat you using those tactics I'm sure a better team with more clinical strikers could find a way to adapt to a more direct style, or they'll...

    Can someone explain me College football?

    The US pro sports system is set up in a way they wanted to set up the ESL. No surprise a lot of the American owners were in the talks. The concept of relegation and being punished for poor performance is alien to them and they want that loophole closed. If they started shit in the ESL they could...

    Allen

    I agree. he's OK and will try his best but if we want to progress we have to move him on. Prob best for him too so he gets game time.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Decided economy was more important and it was under control enough to open up. Only a few weeks ago 50k people watched the cricket. When I watched that and given the population density my immediate thought was "it's going to get bad". But not to this extent as I thought the heat might help...
