    Lee Camp. We signed him in November 2020 when Marosi broke his cheekbone. Camp had been let go by Birmingham that summer.

    He's looking like quite the bargain for Preston

    Have a day off. His promotion to the first team squad and inclusion in the pre -season tour and subsequently making the bench show show well regarded he is.

    How likely was it that we were going to spend millions on Simms and Wright? At least give it till 11pm eh.

    Of course you can justify it. Footballers aren't slaves, you can't force them to move if they don't want to and thankfully we have moved beyond the dark days of buying anyone who was available just to make up the numbers. What isn't justifiable is the assertion that the club have sat around...

    I don't disagree it would be nice to have a more like for like replacement for Hamer to add to the midfield but I don't think it's a massive disaster if we don't. I also don't think we should roll over and pay silly fees or break our wage structure for the sake of it.

    Clearly they weren't unprepared. MR even alluded to alternative targets being looked at before Gus had even left. I'm not convinced that MR doesn't plan to use Ayari in the Hamer role anyway, that seemed to be the consensus when he signed. He played half a game further forward and that idea...

    Your predicting future doom again, it's something you do a lot. Definitely something you should explore.

    Started at Pompey and spent time out of the academy system with boys clubs but did also play in Chelsea's youth ranks you're right

    No incentive for WBA to do that. Weakens them, strengthens a rival and it costs them money too? Nah.

    According to that article, scans aren't a routine part of a medical anyway and only happen when there's evidence or history of a significant injury. I also read that it's quite common for the players medical to be done by the selling club, especially when buying from abroad.

    Tennai Watson signed for Charlton, which could mean that Dabo isn't getting a deal there?

    Entirely different team though isn't it. Different formation with 2 up top, a lot more possession and less counter attack. Our entire game plan has changed.

    - We could sign 3 midfielders today and they could all be injured by next week. We don't exactly excel at keeping players fit do we. - Eccles and Kelly were a big part of our success last season and in Eccles case he's only getting better the more he plays. - We may lack depth in defensive...

    Whilst I understand the point you're trying to make, which is valid and as you said comes from a place of kindness, it's not helpful to tell people with acute anxiety to "just relax". It doesn't work like that. There's also nothing unnatural about anxiety, it's essential for life, it's what...
