Who is on your bench for tomorrow?

PL clubs are littered with young pacey wingbacks who love to attack. Signing the type of centre back we need is going to be really tough though. We need an experienced leader not another promising 20 year old, someone who will stick their head on anything, control the back line but can pass the...

Wonder if this one was putting down to 'growing pains' too? :D Steven Gerrard Reveals How He Once Injured His Penis During a Match Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has told of how he cut open his penis in an FA Cup match against Bournemouth last year. "The magic of the FA Cup was bloodied on the...

We won't be laughing so hard when Doug installs his mad shaving-pun brother as chairman!

Could MR be planning to use Bidwell in the back 3 for his experience while Fadz is out?. With this guy being left sided, I think we'll keep Dabo as back up to Norton-Cuffy and maybe a loan for Burroughs.

Think it's just SISU trying to make the squad look bigger than it really is with all these double-barrelled player names. It looks like we have a full bench right there: Brooke Norton-Cuffy Josh Wilson-Esbrand

I think Rich Energy is just cold Bovril anyway. :)

Sick of these clowns just milking the free hospitality. Bet he didn't pay for his bovril.

I don't think you can have a pretty good idea whether someone is going to be good enough until they've actually proven themselves at this or an equivalent level, unless they are absolutely head and shoulders above their peers like Maddison and Wilson were, and as a result they went for a lot of...

Given our low budget and that we haven't sold a star recently, what markets should we be shopping in for calculated risks? Championship level and in their prime - very expensive on our budget e.g. Palmer: 15k-20k per week Championship level and slightly past their peak - relatively expensive...

The first 3 were though. Moore played a decent first season, Waghorn did ok at the very start then got Covid and injuries which the recruitment team can’t be blamed for. Kane did ok to start with and we don’t really know why he got bombed out do we? Walker was a long term target for Robins...

I can’t see things ending well for Doug. I don’t understand his motivation for wanting to be involved in the club. How does he intend to grow the club’s turnover? It sounds like we’ll only be back to the point when SISU decided to stop putting money in and with them still retaining their 15%...

How do you calculate those risks well though when you don't have the budget to sign ready made players?

Would be an interesting comparison though of our first XI wages vs our back up XI wages. Considering the consensus seems to be that our squad is too small and most of the back up XI needed aren't good enough for Championship football, I bet there's a big chunk of already small budget being...

I bet Moore, Kelly, Kane and Waghorn must be the best part of 50k a week between them.

From the thread title, I thought you were constipated again Ann.

Think a lot of the blame lies with picking Panzo in the middle of the 3. Has to be a player who can head the ball and mark a man there.

Pinning my hopes for Kelly on the fact he's always taken 4 or 5 games to get back up to speed again after his injuries. Not holding my breath though :(

Kelly looks like he's playing Masters football with how much he slows the game down. Tavares reminds me a lot of Hiwula - looks dangerous running forwards but absolutely anonymous with his back to goal.
