    Transfer Rumour January transfer window

    quick google seems to suggest a lot of injuries and the a huge bust up with the manager to the point he's not even training with the first team or in the group photo of every male and female player at the club. you'd be worried about how ready to go a player was who hasn't played in years and...

    Things that annoy you

    I had to have loads of work done on my house when I bought it, which I was not expecting. The vast majority of trademen I dealt with were a fucking nightmare. Wouldn't turn up for appointments to quote, would quote and then disappear off the face of the earth, would schedule to do the job and...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Looking at the rise in school fees, without VAT, it seems that the increase in recent years has been huge in real terms. How come there was no 'won't somebody think of the poor children' when the schools were hiking the prices up?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    How come we have a shortage of school spaces if that many kids are moving from state to private. Surely if literally half the class leaves they need more pupils to replace them? If classes are at 50% capacity aren't they in danger of being merged into other schools?

    Well we are experts on everything, surprised we don't get consulted before these changes are made.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Genuine question but is there any stats on how often this happens? How many kids start in a regular comp, or whatever they are called these days, and then get taken out and move to a private school? Or is there any breakdown on the financial situation of the parents of kids in private schools.

    Dean Austin position untenable

    Think we also should ask questions of Dr Roberts. We were told she was now involved in recruitment to ensure we got in players who had the right attitude. Would anyone argue that the signings now have a better attitude and personality than those we had previously?

    Dean Austin position untenable

    because his new boss knows nothing about football or what happened at the club in the past so he's blamed all the failures on the fella that's not here anymore and taken credit for all the successes. sure we've all worked with people like that

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Why wouldn't I like the source? Always interested in getting more data. Over what time period are they suggesting 141 schools will close and is that a net figure? For reference the figures I can find for 2024 show 46 schools closing but 77 new private schools opening. That number of closures is...

    pretty sure at some point this season someone on here said we can't count wins against 10 men as they're too easy. sure as shit not making it look easy at the moment.

    Sheaf has got to be carrying an injury to have fallen off this much. Which then raises the question why do we keep playing him. Not like he's having such an influence over matches we can't leave him out.

    We're relying on the same head of recruitment to target better players. Can't say I'm entirely sure that's a wise move.

    If things don't change at full time we'll probably have people telling us how they're in good form and we shouldn't have gone there expecting a result.

    What's happened to our set pieces? Earlier in the season we were doing routines that had clearly been worked on. Now we seem to have gone to hit and hope.
