    Strengthening in the summer

    If that's true it's got to be one of the most stupid things to put into a managers contract - creates a conflict of interest of doing what's best for the team and what's best for them financially. I guess they do it to placate managers having star players sold. Can't complain as much if you're...

    Possession Vs Points

    I used to assume it was someone with a stopwatch measuring it but it does appear it's based on passes made. It could be a massive co-inkydink but those stats Barnsley has put up, Norwich made 72% of the passes. That just happens to be the exact amount of time they spent in possession as well.

    Possession Vs Points

    Comes from the dominance of Spanish teams who played that way. tiki-taka. But as with all styles of play eventually someone will find a way to even it out. We're seeing that with the intensity and the high press.

    At work, first time Down here in years

    To be fair though it's quite a different price range and potential clientele. But yeah, they could've definitely done it better.

    Ricoh Return

    Considering one of the grounds mentioned was HR, I don't think it's in the last eight years. Maybe in the last 8 seasons that they've been in the same division as us?

    Tyler Walker

    ....people would be wondering what the fuck you were playing at as they've got better players and he's not contracted to them anyway. They'd probably also question why you were choosing the team rather than the manager and coaches.

    Squad Improvements 21-22 (assuming Championship)

    Where exactly do you expect Santa to play? I'm assuming he'd only be effective in the Christmas Tree formation.

    Gustavo Hamer

    Players have different aerobic capacities, red blood cells etc that affect how knackered they get. Sometimes it can be down to personal choices (i.e. sitting in front of the TV with crisps instead of going for a run) but there'll be natural fitness discrepancies between people. Hence why...

    Squad Improvements 21-22 (assuming Championship)

    What do you think is wrong with the current U23 options than we need to consider replacing? U23 GK - Billson and Tyler U23 ST - we just signed Tavares, Bapaga is coming through and Nee is currently top scorer at that level U23 AM - maybe need a bit more but Burroughs should be persevered with...

    Get a UK company to win a tender to dispose of it by undercutting then bring it back here for our use. Vaccines on the cheap.

    We've had certain inoculations required to visit certain parts of the world for a long while. Although those are more for personal health than public due to transmissable diseases. Unless the vaccine is proven to be that you can't now transmit the virus I also don't see the point. I'd rather...

    Crowds next season

    I think we've benefited slightly from he lack of crowds relatively, esp financially as other teams will be losing far more in gate receipts than we have. Even with last season being in Birmingham would've still meant crowds being low in comparison to many other Championship clubs. The break may...
