    The new flag designs...

    I think I saw something on the Facebook forum about the flag a day or two back, about voting to choose new / amended wording. I'm hesitant to offer an opinion when I've had no involvement, but I think the organiser needs to make a decision and stick to it, rather than looking for input from a...

    Gustavo Hamer - CONFIRMED

    How do you pronounce his name? Hamer as in Hammer, or as in rhymes with Gamer? It's of vital importance, as I need to prepare witty remarks for when he has a shit first game of the season.

    The new flag designs...

    I've missed out on this whole flag malarkey. How big will it be, as in, will the text be readable from a distance? Is it intended for long term use?

    Wigan gone in to admin

    We took the 10 point penalty and easily stayed up. I know it's 'only' Wigan, but nothings a given when it comes to football.

    Crewe player?

    The days of Crewe being a conveyor belt for top talent finished years ago. Dario G was light years ahead at developing young players at one point, but others caught up.

    Ex Player Watch

    A lot of those players are past their best, and others seem to be going through the motions. Sacking Pulis was such a bad decision for that club.

    Fellatio_Martinez

    Firstly, I'm saddened to hear the news. It's always upsetting when one of our own pass, but when it's a name you see regularly and was someone who made you chuckle, it hits a little harder. Secondly, the best I can do with the anagram is 'A real tit film zone'. That does make it sound like it's...

    Recruitment team

    I think it's partly to do with the fact that we had such a good few months at / near the top of the division before it imploded, and it was our first time in years (probably since Aidy Boothroyd's days) that we had had that joy. I look back on him fondly because he gave me some hope for a few...

    Tim Fisher on TalkSport at 11am

    Wasps can see both the ka-ching of Championship crowds after Covid and the need for immediate revenue before crowds return. You'd like to think CCFC hold the trump cards this time round, but who knows. As much as I dislike the souless Ricoh, I only hope if we do return that it's on a long term...

    Wage Rise Upgrades

    I saw something yesterday - not sure if on twitter or on here - showing average player wages by club in the Championship for the season before last, and most were in the teens of K per week, with the exception of Rotherham who were at 3k. I imagine we'll be at that sort of level, or we'll be...

    SISU

    If you look at it objectively, the club is on a sounder financial footing (COVID aside) than it has been in years, the club has a playing identity and an academy that is a conveyor belt to the first team, and a fan base that is seeing - albeit short term - consistent success. It seems like...

    The Players who will be forgotten

    Excellent spot. 2 seasons with us in the Championship according to Wiki. I blame my age / the alcohol.

    The Players who will be forgotten

    Not Petrasso. A central midfielder. I keep thinking Bailey Cargill, but it wasn't him. It's annoying me now, but I refuse to use Google to find out.

    The Players who will be forgotten

    I always like Blair Adams. Was genuinely peed off when he was let go, but to be fair his career hasn't exactly taken off. Also that midfielder we had on loan from...Derby?...around the same time. He always looked decent, but perhaps it was just that he wasn't as shit as some of the others.

    Favourite moment of the season

    The key point in the season was the Wycombe game, but I have two favourite moments - Walsh's solo goal was truly magnificent, and Godden's drilled 20 yard goal from that clever flick by Shipley.

    Retained List

    Westbrooke deserves a new contract. It's easy to forget that him and Shipley were key cogs in the machine for the first half of the season.

    Listen To Me Just Hear Me Out

    I could be wrong, but I was under the impression it was a rolling 1 year contract and the 'new' contract last year was essentially just a pay rise.
