    Anybody watched mission to burnley ?

    Not afraid to put my head above the parapet and say I thought they’d struggle big time. Didn’t see where the goals were coming from and it seemed the new owners were going to withdraw funding. Added to the fact that top players very rarely make good managers.

    Best restaurant

    Far from best restaurant, but has anyone tried the bottomless brunch at Spire Bar? Any good?

    Care homes

    Right, point number 1. Get Power of Attorney relating to financial matters sorted now. By the time it’s needed, it’ll be too late as no solicitor will sign off that the individual is right of mind to give PoA. Currently going through this with my gran who’s been in a care home for around 12-18...

    Transfer Rumour Billy Sharp

    Bearing in mind Doug hadn’t seen a game of football for about 10 years before taking us over, I’m calling bullshit that he blocked a move for a player he’d probably never heard of.

    Match Thread Barnsley v Peterborough

    People thinking Styles would be competing with O’Hare and Palmer. Lol.

    Transfer targets

    Seem to recall similar happening with JCS when we took him on loan. Probably posturing for a higher loan fee.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Almost need to (rather cynically) demonstrate that you can’t be both anti-immigration and anti-environment. One will quite clearly lead to the other. As ever, though, everyone’s too scared to call out these morons on their stance.

    Things that annoy you

    I do this whilst eating. The sucking fingers bit, not washing my hands. Hate the feel of greasy fingers (ooh matron). So do you suck all your fingers at once after eating?

    By the end of the window even Leeds might be a stretch.

    3 choices.

    Fadz. Palmer. Allen.

    Transfer Rumour Callum Styles

    Quite right, but I think - as shown with Godden - if we’re bringing players in with sizeable fees it doesn’t make them an automatic starter. There’s also the horses for courses argument that we can vary our lineup based on opposition/fitness. We’ve not had that option as long as I’ve been a Cov...

    The Replacement

    No more than fag-packet maths (and I can’t show my workings because I’ve already forgotten how I did it) but I’d ballpark the entire club wages for 23-24 at £25m. Bookmark this til February 2025 when the accounts come out!

    The Replacement

    Cracking disguise.

    Transfer Rumour Callum Styles

    Another way of looking at it: maybe Bidwell wants to go and be first choice somewhere and this gives us a good (probably starting standard at present) CM whilst also giving cover at LWB?

    Championship thread 23/24

    I really don’t feel like it has to click fast (would be nice), just a gut feeling that second half of the season we’ll have a comparable run to the end of last season. Maybe even stronger.

    15% dropping to 10% if the add-ons in the deal are met (no idea what they will be).

    Championship thread 23/24

    Honestly never thought they’d be anywhere near relegation but their squad, to my knowledge, hasn’t massively changed over the summer and yet bookies had them as one of the favourites to go up. I’d stick them somewhere in the 10-16 positions, barring some mammoth signings. Manager is very good as...

    Matty godden

    Must admit with Godden playing so well today I thought Evo would be coming out swinging tonight (guess there’s still time). I’m fairly happy with our striker options now - thought Godden would be earmarked as 4th choice which would see him leave and replaced, but if we have 3 all competing...
