    Our Midfield

    He's on a heck of a lot more money than you'd think. Not as much as Michael Doyle was on, mind...

    2015/2016 season 'Beard Off'

    Steve Waggott has a cute little goatee. Shame it makes his mouth look like a ladypart.

    sorry to say but

    It's a 2 season plan to get promoted isn't it? So anything positive this season will be a bonus. Better to finish midtable and have a few decent signings ready for the season after than to rush this season, achieve nothing, and have to start again next summer. Pre-season tours are non-essential...

    Mowbray in talks with Sam Ricketts

    If he said he'll leave it up to his agent, then I read that as him being ready to sign and his agent will sort the cash dollar. But to be fair to the lad, after the was Pressley treated him he probably isn't that bought into it all. Hard to disassociate the actions of the clubs manager from the...

    Ched Evans

    You know how some people are saying no signings is affecting Early Bird season ticket sales? Well perhaps the opposite applies and they are waiting to announce Ched after the offer has ended to prevent putting people off..? #conspiracytheory

    Wages ?

    http://metro.co.uk/2007/10/31/liverpool-star-fumes-as-payslip-turns-up-on-web-419011/ From 8 years ago, but suggests it's paid monthly.

    Wages ?

    This is why loans are so important, especially if the parent club contibutes a significant percentage of wages. Means more perm signings on better wages, which theoretically means better players.

    And we think our council doesn't care!

    If you squint a bit, it looks like a giant vagina.

    Carlton Cole anyone?

    Back in the day, the 'big' players dropped down the leagues. They needed to because the cash wasn't in the game. But nowadays they don't need the money, so the only way they come is for the love of playing. And how many ex-Prem 'stars' play in L1? Alan Smith is probably the only one of note, and...

    New kit announced in the coming days

    I like Le Coq. Oooh matron.

    Realistic good signings.

    That's what I mean - depends if he's happy to pick up a wage and sit on a bench, or would prefer to play. At this stage of his career I would expect him to chase the cash, but you do still see 'big' names dropping down the leagues (albeit far rarer these days than when I was a kid) when they...

    Realistic good signings.

    I'd fancy Grant Holt tbh. Looks like Wigan have given his the green light to go on a free, and he'd be a handful at this level. Depends if he's motivated to play because he wants to play, or just earn cash I suppose.

    if you could score one goal in the history of our club

    Probably Paul Williams' winner at Spurs on the final day for me. I was actually at Villa Park with an ex, watching the best centre back display I've ever seen coming from some obscure Southampton player called Ulrich Van Gobbel. He was truly amazing, which I guess is proven by the fact that I...

    Alexi Lalas question.

    It was the back page of the Mirror (or maybe the Express) at the time. I often talk about it to people when discussing centre backs, America or beards.

    New McIndoe victims revealed

    The report suggest McIndoe was trying to get people to throw matches. Makes you wonder if he did it himself when with us. Now that​ makes me angry.

    Blame

    As much as I like Carl Baker, that is OTT. I think getting rid of him showed how poor the decision makers were in their due diligence of players, as he was the most passionate player at the club. Whether you thought he was good or poor is besides the point, he was sacked off by Pressley because...
