You're not a very emotionally mature man, are you, really.

Proper tiki-taka is, though. That Spain side that hoovered up all the trophies 15 or so years ago; god, it was horrible watching them. They were so, so good, and so, so boring. Death by 1,000 cuts. By contrast the Spain side that won the Euros were magnificently entertaining.

Burnley's record is amazing, and their football is boring to watch. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Tbf, in the 90s at least it was reciprocated. Midlands representation in the Prem consisted of us and them for that decade.

Are they? I mean they're a bit scruffy, but I doubt that many pay them much thought. They're not really a football club, but Milton Keynes are universally loathed, and rightly so. Apart from in Milton Keynes itself, where nobody seems to give a fuck either way.

So he did. Clough signed John McGovern four times, though. Offered him his initial contract at Hartlepool, then signed him for Derby, Leeds and Forest. He thought he could do a job, clearly.

How many times did Strachan sign Telfer? At least three.

Or just a bit short.

He has an unnecessary 'r' in his name.

He fits in tactically very well with how we are playing at the moment, and is also captaining the side. He may not start every game from now until the end of the season, but if he stays fit, I can see him playing a big part in it.

There have been some shocking performances this season, though.

I was going on the premise of £3-4m for initial outlay. Not through the roof, but for a club of our means, we have to be getting those sorts of transfers right.

They sold him at the end of the season. He played against us in the playoffs.

Ok! 😂

Not really sure what that has to do with my statement, which is still true; for a modern footballer he has poor technique. He has good games and is in good form at the moment, but he needs to do it far more consistently and over a prolonged period to convince me that he was a good signing for...

Is that Bassette when he was a Football Manager newgen?

The second chance he had? The defender deflected it over, I think. Hard to say if the keeper had it covered.

How come he's got over 100 appearances in good Championships sides, then?
