Didn’t the club put out a statement that any sale of the ground could be joined to sale of the club. That they were willing to listen to offers?

If they did I don't remember it.

We have @better days + @Skybluebeliever who I would say are the most trusted. I believe BD has been on recently , and I also hope he doesn’t mind me saying that I think SBB is slightly more ITK but hasnt been on and posted anything recently.

could be something in it, could be pure coincidence, who knows??

On the pitch yes but off it ? Let’s start with 12 months+ playing in Birmingham with shite 5000 gates and for what, what did it achieve ? sweet fanny adams and at a time when we were playing some great attractive football, striving for promotion, our first league success for over 50 years, as said with shit 5000 gates when at home it could have been 20000+ that’s around £300k a match in gate receipts alone lost plus the extras like corporate, refreshments etc,etc. who’s clever clogs decision was that ? probably that dick Fisher again.

Fisher was instrumental in playing at Sixfilelds, but Birmingham was more to do with Wasps refusing to deal with us.

The ITKs have got plenty right but they've also got plenty wrong.

Not having a pop at them at all, just saying it's probably not wise to hang off their every word.

was sent a voicenote earlier from somebody who is friends with a coach at the club. (Allegedly) Leeds were doing everything they could to sign Gyokeres, didn't meet our valuation and then as the window closed, Gyok threw his toys out of the pram.

Godden called him out for it in training and the 2 ended up having a bust up and MR decided to leave them both on the bench

Because we are run by dick-heads Fisher being one, I’m not going into all that clap-trap about why Birmingham other than sisu decided to have a court battle with their landlord never a good idea, which has proved to be futile.

Godden certainly seems to love the club, fans, MR etc. Good on him. I love vik but he's skulked around 2.5 games now looking like he doesn't wanna be there. He's stuck here now til Jan and if he wants that move, do it on the fucking pitch

Thats what I was thinking had happened, piecing it together its probably the most obvious thing. As Godden seems to love it here and is a professional, I can see why he would give Vik a talking to if he seemed to be throwing his toys out of the pram, perhaps met confrontationally by Vik

Something defo happened for them both to be on the bench. If Godden called Vik out for sulking then fair play it’s what you want from a senior player.

Just surprised Godden was benched for it

That's MR's way of showing his feelings. Admittedly by punishing Vik you weaken the team but perhaps MR realised we weren't going to win anyway

A bit of a turnaround if true given that Gyo seemed to accept that he wasn't ready for the top flight yet and needed more regular football. Though he has also looked well out of sorts in the last 3 games so who knows.

Someone I know who is ITK and close to a kitchen porter at Ryton told me Viktor stole Godden’s lawnmower and took it for a joy ride around Warwick Castle the night before the Norwich game.

Godden was less than impressed and there was a huge argument. Viktor said his hair is better than Godden etc…Godden said Viktor’s mrs isn’t a patch on Magnus Headman’s mrs…Godden chucked some manure at Viktor, but Viktor ducked and it hit Robins in the face while he was sitting on his throne. That was the last straw for Robins and dropped them both to the bench.

As ridiculous as that sounds, sadly that's the mentality of many.

Heard the voicenote and its total rubbish. Godden drove Vik home yesterday. Godden and Vik often travel to games together and they travelled back yesterday.

There was no bust up. It makes it more concerning that Robins decided to go for that team for very little reason. That's two dreadful selections in one week.

ITK as an acronym annoys me.
And I’ll say it, all the ITK’s annoy me. Fuck off basically.

Tide is turning at the club, tide is turning with patience for the players. And the tide, for me at least, has turned with these ITK lot.

And the negative lot as well. I’d quite happily sit with my dad knowing fuck all as he doesn’t go on ‘the internet’ and just be annoyed at the results.

Yes and let's get outraged and annoyed with players based on rumours that we have no idea whether or not they are true.

I received this too. Said Leeds were offering 18m which I didn’t find plausible but very wishful thinking.
