MacAnthony admits in the article that everyone thinks he asking for too much. Fernando makes a good point about our 2 left backs. Didn't realise he was out of contract next summer though. They've already bought his replacement.

I'm sure I've missed this being posted elsewhere already so - sorry - but just case: "I won’t name the clubs involved, but I’m surprised Coventry aren’t one them. Harrison and Ephron Mason-Clark were superb on the left for us last season, but I wouldn’t try and tell Coventry what they should be...

*This is a party political broadcast by the Reform Party ;)

I genuinely think Collins was brought in as a number 2 and he is probably adequate for that. Wilson's dip in form has forced us to seek a new no.1.

I'll make that judgement when he signs for us. ;)

Surely Boateng will be busy sorting us out Ghana's next big thing?

Mildly relevant aside, Boateng was well thought of at Boro but 'On 22 January 2008, Boateng had his captaincy rescinded by Gareth Southgate. Southgate cited his desire for Boateng to "concentrate on his game". He was replaced as captain by Emanuel Pogatetz.' Shortly afterwards, Boateng left the...

When lamenting that two of my favourites players (Boateng and Haji) left us for villa I console myself with the thought that both made us a fair bit of money... then promptly downed tools. ;)

Which would make sense, right?

Reality here is that other than a Gimoc rumour a few months ago nobody saw this coming. Makes you wonder if it happened fast.

NB I wasn't making any comment on quality - just stating that it didn't necessarily fit with the idea that he considered a 'bad influence'. Don't actually disagree with anything you've put there.

So many changes to backroom staff does give it a bit of a transitional feel. Hopefully with most of the players being at least second season it won't spill over onto the pitch.

Yes - you'll note I changed 'fanciful' to 'unsupported' while you were writing your reply as it wasn't quite the right word. But you're working back from the conclusion it is her fault because ~ why? Is that more feasible than him falling out with Robins or the players, Doug, Dean Austin? You...

She is a director. Obviously as performance director coaching is a big part of that and "Dr Roberts will work in unison with the senior football management team and report to the Executive Chairman." She is clearly in that inner circle. But her core expertise is in sports psychology. The idea...

Again guys, I point you back to my previous comments - I really think you misunderstand and overestimate her role. She is essentially head of sports science. There is nothing to suggest she has the power to go into other departments and start firing people. She is (essentially) chief medic. I...

Barnsley made him club captain at 23. It could be that some people on here are just talking pap.

That is her new job title (I think she has been with the club a while) but from the publicly available information it sounds like a jazzy way of saying she does the modern 'sports science' bit. Obviously that could potentially bring her into conflict with an assistant manager that thinks he...

Why do people keep dragging the lady into this? She is essentially head of the medical/sports psychology department, right? Firing the assistant manager seems a bit of a reach.

Can't be bothered to check - does investment in infrastructure count towards sustainability rules in the championship? Doesn't usually (at least not in full).

Because he called up the club and that's what they told him. He seems less certain about this one and appears to be just guessing it is nonsense - because that is the only sane conclusion. Still when we announce him and De Gea at 6pm...
