Me neither, but i also get the expectation that the journey may be more fun than the destinaton. I want us to go up, obviously, and succeed at as high a level as possible for as long as possible, but I also think that, all things considered, there probably isn't as exciting a league anywhere as...

Fair, all subjective.

Some of them, but there were some properly miserable seasons in there, too. I'd say I've enjoyed our time since Robins returned more than a lot of the top-flight time. A lot of the early-mid 90s were pretty grim, let's be honest. I wouldn't want to watch Phil Neal's team again, for example.

It was a caveat, nothing more. I think you're on quite thin ice if calling anyone else 'comedy gold'.

Fucking hell. He's a genuine international class forward. Of course he's fucking good.

I think it was reported in the Swiss media, but may have been based on comments from the selling club's chairman.

You asked for players who didn't feature much on arrival but went on to be regulars; I gave you a couple of examples. I'm hardly going to compare them to a player I haven't seen play in any meaningful sense. It's you who's doing that.

No, I don't! And neither do you. I'm not going to pretend that I'm not a little sceptical, but I'm not going to make ridiculous pronouncements either. I'm not denying anything, I'm reserving judgement, which, call me old fashioned, seems the more rational path to take.

That's a very exact number, but Sakamoto didn't play much when he first arrived, neither did Kitching. Going further back, Mo Konjic barely featured when we first signed him (partly through injury) and went on to be club captain. I don't know what sort of signing Markelo will end up being, but...

"'Ee's blown 'is nose on ourr corrnerr flag!" I do like West Country accents, tbf.

Stick Gyökeres in this team and it would be carnage.

It's because he's not a headless chicken, bite-the-defenders'-lwgs type forward. His style and demeanour is quite languid and he doesn't play like you'd expect a big man to play. Some fans struggle with this, though they probably also struggle with tying their laces. One thing I will say...

I think you feel:

There are things I'm desperate for; the desire to take throw-away comments on the internet seriously isn't one of them, trust me. 😂

*Team's.

I wouldn't be surprised to see them finish more strongly than anyone. Not to say they will, but I wouldn't be surprised.

That's also a ridiculous statement. They have automatic promotion in their own hands.

Like Sunderland didn't last year? There're still a lot of points to play for, and they'll be some strange results yet. I'm not predicting anything, and certainly not writing off the club with the strongest squad in the division.

That's just ridiculous. We deserved to win both, but let's not pretend it didn't take excellent performances to manage it.

In the sense you mean, all clubs are as pointless as each other.
