Maybe they have a magic wand they borrowed from Hogwarts! I just don't see how they can turn things around. The bottom line is that this club needs investment!

Indeed. I just won't be a yes man for anybody. Always have to speak my mind. ;)

Well we are going to be left with no assets at all in terms of potential income from sales at this rate. Once you have sold all the family silver then what is left? If it is hundreds of thousands of pounds a month we are losing we could indeed sell Turner and Clingan, Jukebox and Cranie. That...

I have turned down a few jobs on principal. I do recall turning down one job that was £5,000 more than the one I took at the time, because I didn't believe in what they stood for. I do believe I am quite principled. I cannot work for a company where I was uncomfortable with what they stood for...

Well that's how I've always understood it. You buy 50% with the intention of owing 100% in the future. It is just the first step to the goal and at the same time makes the club a more attractive proposition.

You must adopt their principles? Really? The company I worked for were in the top 100 companies to work for in the UK 5 years ago and a charity to boot. Fully believed in their principles. Since then they have lost the plot and changed out of all proportion. they are not the same company...

And here endeth the lesson for today. :D

Possibly get two draws. We need goals from somewhere though.

I'm of the opinion that we are between the devil and the deep blue sea. I have no idea at all whether Hoffman will be any better or not. The thing I see in his favour at the moment is that he's a Cov fan. Besides, it's clearly not working under Sisu. Something has to change. I have not got a...

Anyone who plays for Arsenal.

Good point. they are all similar types of player. Lets cross our fingers that Deegan gets fit because it's that type of player we need alongside these kind of players.

On paper we deserved to win? Pretty much every shot we had was from distance. Plus, once Leshtur scored they were quite comfortable and didn't need to have any further attempts on goal. they just tried to stick with what they'd got, keep the ball and run the clock down.

Is anyone saying they are skint? Aren't they merely saying they have taken a bit of a hit?

Yep, some truth in that. Plenty of companies that go under in this situations though too.

Clingan did give the ball away cheaply too. I had indeed noticed that. We just know that David Bell is better than what we saw yesterday. And how games can we throw that label at him? He frustrates the hell out you because we know he is capable of so much more!

We haven't got any money!! Hence the offer of a player exchange!

I really can't see how we can risk all our first teamers. We have an incredibly thin squad as it is and we really can't risk picking up any injuries. Much as I would like us to field our best 11 I am not sure it would be a wise move. If we were to pick up a couple of injuries on Tuesday we'll...

Well I think we are all beginning to believe that. Manager after manager has come out and said what a good player he is. He simply hasn't shown that though. Another Freddie on our hands I think. You never know what you're going to get and too often he flatters to deceive. He'll be brilliant one...

Don't go in for rumours, but this one might have some credence. The financial markets are taking quite a hit. Thing is though, won't any recession and financial crisis also hit Hoffman's backers too?

He's nearly always invariably first on too. I reckon he must spend his free time listening to Leonard Cohen and watching Ingmar Bergman films. Never anything quite so ridiculous as that time when Eakin asked him what he thought of the game and he came out with "What did you think, Clive?" He...
