    Transfer Rumour Jamie Allen signs

    He seemed really nervous being in front of a camera. He needs some of Hickman's confidence.

    I was thinking of David Bell when I wrote that, tbf.

    Transfer Rumour Jamie Allen signs

    Pros and cons, innit. Cons = they might be shit, we might get promoted and need better players and are lumbered with them, and managers don't tend to stay around that long so it hampers a new guy in building his own team. Pros = more stability for us, players are more likely to sign because they...

    From the Burton website: Jamie joined Rochdale at the age of eight, rising through each of the junior ranks at Spotland before becoming a first-team regular. Jamie’s talents were quickly recognised by Rochdale management and he was nominated for League Two’s Apprentice of the Year award in...

    Surely an evening with MR and kit launch will count as 2, and coach travel makes 3?

    100 years from now

    Players will wear GPS trackers which will show if they're offside. Spectators will be encased in biodegradable cylinders that can be stacked on top of each other to increase capacity. The ball will be replaced with a balloon for health and safety purposes.

    Duggins

    The fans aren't kowtowing. They're just asking questions of other parties. Why is there this constant, pathetic attempt to paint fans as being in SISUs corner. Dont the countless protests over the past however many years show that we're only on the club's side? It's a ridiculous PR campaign...

    Duggins

    "It comes after I scrutinised...". No, it came after Tynan did, as per the timeline on Twitter. Why would he try to claim credit for something like that? Spoiler: I already know the answer.

    Confirmed - Gervane Kastaneer

    [ QUOTE="JimmyHillsbeard, post: 1771098, member: 5574"]“Both la Manga saunaboys have now gone!” The mind boggles And: Another one out of the waste bin of destroyer Smulders. Neither does Kasteneer know whether there is air, sand, nitrous oxide or whipped cream in a ball.

    2019/2020 Fixtures Thread

    6 away games in the last 10. If it's tight up top, that could make it difficult.

    Are you happy

    This is more personal than I intended it to be, but I think it adds some context to my previous post. My mum passed away at the turn of the century. I spent a year drinking, trying (and usually failing) to womanise, self destructing in every way I could think of. I was young, had no job, had to...

    Are you happy

    If you have stories to tell then tell them, and do it right away. Get the fire going, get the words on paper, reminisce, laugh and cry and everything inbetween while you write. There's no reason to delay. People say they'll write a book, and wait and wait and wait for inspiration, but it never...

    Are you happy

    I've learnt that I can control how I feel. I make a decision to feel happy, and I work my hardest to make it happen. It took a long time to get to the place where I could do it. Is it easy? Not always. But I can drive my own feelings in the direction that I want. I can motivate myself, build a...

    The snide digs directed at other people in that statement, but not having the guts to name them, is cowardly and childish.

    Video Josh Pask | His first Sky Blues interview!

    I said it on the other thread, but he seems like a very sensible, nice young fella. He seems to have his head screwed on, and there's a quiet determination shining through when he speaks. I think he's going to be a great asset around the dressing room as much as on the pitch.

    Transfer Rumour Josh Pask

    Seems like a nice chap based on that video. Determined to follow his own path in life - how many footballers would say they watch planet earth 2 and like history knowing what dressing rooms can be like? Looks like we've signed a strong, solid character.
