Last time round it was a slogan without much action behind it. This time round it seems like an actual shift in the whole club’s strategy. The Premier League Packages, the transfer fees loaded with big incentives, the temporary stadium deal, the contract re-negotiations…everything at the club...

I wouldn’t say our club is a model of sustainability at the moment. If we don’t get promoted in the next few seasons then it’s a big headache for Doug.

Teams will quite reasonably see us as promotion favourites just based off how much money we’ve spent. Lot of new pressure on Robins - I just hope he’s given time.

Honestly, his ability to field all of these questions from the offal interviewer and give normal answers without starting to question his own reality is a sign that the money has been well spent: “How does it feel to get everything done?” “Are you excited for the challenge ahead?” “How much are...

Given the money we’ve spent, basically you have to be disappointed with anything worse than playoffs from this season now.

Way to get our hopes up with the thread title!

Of course it matters! Why wouldn’t it? Something about this debate seems to make people assume that everyone is arguing in bad faith, but for the avoidance of doubt, it definitely matters!

I struggle to see how I’m “effectively calling for a removal of all sex based protections for women”. My whole point is that there are extremely delicate, extremely specific cases that deserve our attention beyond a blanket assumption that trans women are always up to no good. You clearly...

I think you’ve made it quite clear that you don’t know any trans people who you believe are worth empathising with. If you want to paint the trans community - many of whom are at various stages of transition, hormone therapy, surgical procedures etc - as a monolithic group who should be treated...

Is it? I think it’s a bit more nuanced than that. But if you see sex segregated changing rooms solely as being the thin line between civility and all-out widespread sexual assault, then it makes sense that you would have more zealous views about them.

I haven’t seen anyone defend that scenario.

Don’t want to get into a discussion about sex and gender for which neither of us are properly qualified, but I think the generalisation in the statement “I can’t see why [X group of people] would do this for anything other than weird reasons” is obvious to anyone.

Yeah that home kit was arguably the worst thing about the entire season, and that includes Andre Wright.

This kind of inflexibility/generalisation is kind of mind-boggling to me, from someone who is generally intellectually curious about most other things on here.

Not sure if you mean it that way or not, but there’s a nasty insinuation here about why someone who wasn’t born a woman would want to use women’s spaces. I assume you accept there are reasons for it beyond being “a creeper”?

Find this story quite sad really - did the parents raise the alarm because she was acting suspiciously, or threatening someone? Or just because they find trans people scary? I’m not saying anyone’s necessarily acting in bad faith here, but there has to be a more civil solution than ‘Absolutely...

Realistically he’s not going to be playing on Sunday anyway

When do the kits with CBS and Frasers on the front get released m8

Appreciate the transparency on why the kits aren’t ready, and interesting that it’s record revenue for shirt sponsorships as a whole. But the sponsors’ logo arriving late at the printing place when it’s Doug’s own company who’s the main sponsor is VERY funny.

And stellar And Sanders!
