I don’t want to keep going over 2015-19 but two of those MPs were subject to deselection campaigns and another to a long term antisemitic abuse campaign. All of this shit is a backlash against those years with a certain type of left wing MP being very happy to pal around with the likes of...

I think he manages them well, it’s just the real stinkers have been those types. Hilssner, Kastaneer, Dacosta, I don’t agree with the next two but popular opinion on here is Dasilva and Latibeaudiere as well. The sort of few hundred K, might be alright to fill a hole types. Wilson, Collins as...

My real issue with both Rudoni and O’Hare is that they are forwards more than AMs, at their best they’re trying to score goals not make them and not contribute massively to the build up. For all people bitch about Palmer he’s good at what I want an AM to do in comparison. I think we need...

I think he’s great at first team signings and not so great with ones for the future or fringe players TBH. Other than Kitching I don’t think we’ve ever wasted significant fees. And he might still come good.

Alright I’ll stop now

In that case get Dean Austin on the phone, my mates just had a baby :P

We finished 9th cos our players are good. They finished 23rd cos their players aren’t is another way to look at that.

I don’t think Palmer is shite, but if you do, surely you want someone better?

Grass is always greener mate. Stats seem pretty conclusive. As an AM he’s worse than Palmer, maybe slightly better as a goal scorer but hardly Haji Wright.

These did not help

Save me @Frostie (or I think @Evo1883 ) give us one of those fancy comparison graphs from the stats app for Palmer vs Rudoni

He’s a “might come good” “can fill a few positions”, all a bit uninspiring for £2m. I suppose closer to a Latibeaudiere? Same age. But much more expensive.

But Saka was a fans favourite and as I say Gus has insane stats. Rudoni sounds more like a Tavares or whatever that might come good. Like I say maybe that’s the fees you pay these days but just crazy money for me for players who are yet to perform at any level.

So have transfer fees just shot up recently or have we given up on the Sheaf/Vik/Hamer style signings at around £1m? Maybe my scale is just well off. Just feels now we’re paying loads for gambles whereas before we were paying peanuts for first teamers. Gus had some of the best stats in Europe...

Annoying how we’ve massive on Twitter, looking through the profile this is about the only story with replies and we’re often engaging far more than other similar sized clubs on there, and that means it’s an incentive for these accounts to make stuff up involving us.

Fair. The forum thread on him from before they went down is similar. Goes between “he’s shite” and “he could be OK given time”. Just think we need better. Poor numbers, poor reviews from people who watch him each week, he’s a gamble and at £2m not a cheap one.

In what will be amusing news to you all, I’ve just discovered that Luke Akehurst follows me on Twitter 🤣

Is this our marquee CM signing then? Would he play alongside Sheaf/Sheaf replacement?

None of the replies are particularly glowing

That’s the worst part
