    Transfer Rumour Miguel Ángel Brau

    Absolutely! Torp didn't set the world alight when he first arrived but look at him now. Although, over the whole season, I expect Rudoni to be our best player I would say that Torp is the best so far. He's a cracking find for us. Give Brau a chance. I like what I have seen of him so far and...

    Don't discount the possibility that she's both 😆

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Quite. I find it astonishing that Rayner should have bought a second home, given her previous statements that buyers of such are pricing locals out of them market. Was ever thus with champagne socialists.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I wonder what Starmer will do now that Rayner has admitted underpaying her Stamp Duty Land Tax. He would probably like to sack her from her ministerial roles but he knows he can't remove her as deputy leader because that is within the gift of the party and not him. He supported her at PMQs this...

    Quite, which is why I said, "I would be astonished if it was true." If you read what I said, I was merely trying to explain why a lot of people believed it to be true.

    You must make a better job of timing your trips 😆

    Our Finances

    I've found it on five websites. The one I quoted was Football League World. It may be that they all have a common source but neither you nor I will know that. So it certainly is true to say that it was "widely reported", which is what I said.

    Who’d be an owner.

    Andrews is, as yet, an unknown quantity, although he shows promise. Allen manifestly isn't as good as any of our first choice players - you wouldn't really expect a back-up to be - but he is very decent. When fit, I expect Eccles to be our go-to backup midfielder. I think we are lucky to...

    Our Finances

    It was widely reported as £30,000 per week, so it is understandable that people might believe it: I would be astonished if it was true unless, say, it included a bonus for getting to the Premier League which took his salary for the year to around £1,500,000 (roughly £30,000 per week). That I...

    I read earlier today that Birmingham City's new stadium will cost upwards of £3 billion!

    Our Finances

    I suspect it was as there is a mortgage on the property, unless the mortgagee was the previous owner and the mortgage is to secure deferred consideration for the purchase.

    Does anyone else feel that we’ve been sold short ?

    I think it's VERY unlikely but. . . . . 😆

    Does anyone else feel that we’ve been sold short ?

    I read recently that he was on £7,500 a week with us, so not one of our bigger earners. I have no idea if this is correct.

    So we could still lose Haji then? After all, he came to us from Turkey . . . . . 😳

    My take on the window

    I agree. Just Sakamoto and Simms really. The only other thing we could do is to push Torp or Rudoni further forward, although Torp is better shooting from around the edge of the box and Rudonin is better bursting into the box much as O'Hare used to.
