    Tonight’s games

    I'm all with the fans being in if for no reason than the budget but it can go either way. It can spur a team on to play better (esp towards the end if you're chasing a winner/equaliser) but it can also cause the team to 'freeze' and feel the pressure because they can get the dissatisfied vibes...

    No bankruptcies

    It was stuff like this at uni that left me scratching my head in disbelief. Buying something using their money. In a way even things like limited liability encourages riskier behaviour because the risk of personal loss if much reduced. It's so obviously rules brought in by the rich to protect...

    Fabio Tavares - Sky Sports Rumour

    Didn't one of them laud it as the most talented boardroom they'd ever seen? Which if true I think tells you everything you need to know about boardrooms. They'd make half the contestants on The Apprentice look competent. Or even the current Cabinet.

    Oh Jeremy Corbyn

    That's very kind of you. Just transfer the million into my account ta. But never say that about my mother again! ;)

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The man must be immortal. He said he'd be dead in a ditch before allowing an extension of Brexit too. Oh, and we've got him lying in front of the bulldozers at Heathrow to look forward to as well. Though when he said that he probably meant he'd stand there and tell porkies.

    Fabio Tavares - Sky Sports Rumour

    It's increasingly common these days due to budget constraints. Can work for both clubs. If you want to sign a player or they only want the player to move permanently but the budgets don't allow for it, it could make a deal happen that otherwise wouldn't. Similarly the player may not want to go...

    Fabio Tavares - Sky Sports Rumour

    Good call! We need someone chomping at the bit and I reckon a new challenge would give him something to get his teeth stuck into. He'd eat defenders for breakfast in the Championship.

    Signing at 6

    If they're only 6 I think it'll be a while before they're vying for a first team spot. Though wages could actually be a bag of crisps.

    Oh Jeremy Corbyn

    Some places in the US would argue we are one and have been for ages. Stuff like the NHS is a socialist's wet dream in their eyes. We're a capitalist state underpined with socialist policies and practices - welfare for the elderly/sick/infirm, support for the unemployed, universal healthcare...

    Draw min required. Prob the same team depending on fatigue from Sat.

    Strengthening in the summer

    Outs more based on ability to bring someone in. So Allen and Shipley in exchange for one decent quality ACM Biamou and Baka in exchange for one good striker Kastaneer As for the other ins: Left footed centre back (though Osti on a perm would be acceptable) At least one of James and Walsh

    Think they used to perform on the Continent under the name The Quilts.

    Sky Blues Talk FC

    Nah, he'd ban anyone from playing on the left because it's stupid and idiotic. Though post match interviews arguing why certain goals shouldn't have counted would be a laugh. Philosoraptor as club statistician leaving everyone scratching their heads in bemusement.

    Funny and rude names thread

    Yeah. That crank handle to get it started was very odd. And would oddly spit oil out when you finally got it going.

    Josh Reid set to sign

    Only Johnson would then proceed to stamp on the injury making sure the player had to go off so he can have a game, even thoough he's clearly nowhere near up to the task.

    Josh Reid set to sign

    Benn's playing left wing, Thatcher right wing, Johnson free role running around like a headless chicken just doing whatever he thinks is popular with the fans but in reality doing absolutely fuck all.

    Match Thread Birmingham City away

    Conditions today are probably when we could do without mucking around too much at the back, as much as I like our passing game. We make enough errors without a sticky pitch adding too it. Trouble is I think it'll play into Brum's hands as a more direct game will probably suit them. Also with...
