    He's unbearable. It's unfathomable that to think that he was a professional footballer when you hear his takes.

    That seems unlikely at whatever it is their ground is called again.

    Stoke are proper dross; the only surprise is they got to the 82nd minute without being behind.

    Out of interest, when did your games against us go from an annoying few results to a full blown hoodoo? When three defeats turned to four; when five became six? Did the football gods see that we'd beaten you a few times, and then to start to mix their spells and potions to turn it into a full...

    They're the Temu Wrexham.

    Doesn't sound like an old-school Manchester City fan, tbh. Ask how well they knew Maine Road.

    We'd altered the shape and set the mindset to go defensive; it would have been difficult to reset again. Plus we had the goals; no need to go for them, make them break us down.

    It's not to avoid criticism of the signing, it's making the point that it is far too early to be able to criticise or praise the signing. Come on, you're not an idiot, you can see that. He may well be dog shit, but we need to allow for that to be proved before passing a judgement.

    Your post needed a comma. Punctuation matters.

    He also signed Dion Dublin, the best player I've seen play for us. However, my over-riding memory of his time was horribly turgid football.

    He thinks people are making excuses for a failed signing.

    Parachute clubs have a big advantage, but the paly offs open it up, too. There have been plenty of non-parachute clubs that have gone up recently. Perhaps I am biased because we are in it, but this seems a more competitive and exciting league generally. Not just that, though; lack of VAR...

    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...

    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'.

    Haji right

    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.
