I’ll be honest I really want both teams to have their balloon burst with the money they’re spending, but I have a horrible feeling both will do very well.

I think you could argue this is league 1 now. The parachute payments have damaged the competitive quality of the championship.

A couple of weeks away from start of season now, so feels like we’d want to confirm outgoings and incomings soon surely? Would helps Lamps planning and a settled squad.

Isn’t that worse? Surely the point is to draw some strategy.

Anybody tell me what the actual score is haha?

My main memory of this game is that it took place at the same time as the third day of the famous Edgbaston Test match. Was trying to keep up with this while also watching the famous flintoff over and England taking Aussie wickets!

I appreciate it’s one for the football geeks, but I love fixture release day. Besides girlfriend, family and friends, my life revolves around watching Cov so it’s almost a year planner in some way. Even more geeky it reminds me of having the timetable at the beginning of secondary school year...

No, but clearly with the money involved it makes a difference.

Yeah, but it’s not much good to the club to plan for this summer if they have to wait till the end of the window.

Tbh I’m a bit sick of the rumour now. I’m presuming he’s not leaving and I think the club will to too.

I just don’t see why Burnley would be that interested in him tbh. He’s had six good months with us. Surely they’d want to see a little more to demonstrate he’s a viable option.

Didn’t say they would now, but if he has a bad World Cup.

Sounds far fetched but I could see it happening. Tuchel has a bad World Cup. Lampard has another good season with us. The usual thing with the FA is they swing from one pendulum to another. They wanted the best quality manager this time around, but if Tuchel doesn’t do well it’ll be all about an...

Am I the only slightly sad about Howley? I have a memory of him stepping in at one point when we were in need and he really stepped up and showed promise. Thought he would eventually break through.

I’m with you on this. Desperate for them to start selling the 98/99 home shirt. A man can dream.

I think it does make it more difficult for us next season. Sheff Utd bound to be competitive at that top with the three relegated PL sides.

I admit it’s negative and a lot of ifs. Just gut feeling at this point.

I enjoyed his goal, but right move for him to leave.

I’m probably quite naive, but I do appreciate this message and, as a fan, it makes me feel he is probably a better choice to keep. I always felt I had to be either Wright or Simms to go not both.

I agree this is the version where he leaves us, but it would surely be frustrating for him to not see through the promotion to have something on his managerial CV. At the moment he still has nothing really.
