Stranded Being reported that Hull have just sacked Liam Rosenior, which seems ridiculous, but nothing is surprising in football I guess.

Well that's just fcuking mental.

Wasn't Emerse Fae a record signing at the time? I could (and am most likely wrong). He again was hit and miss, some really strong games , but mostly powderpuff. I think you were mistaking him for someone who wasn't Emerse Fae. He was utterly spineless and only played 8 games for us. To be fair we s...

Lita, Asaba and Convey are all a mixed bag. Lita was quality in 106, and a small spurt in the first prem season, but he never really performed consistently and ended up failing. Convey - FDTW has summed up perfectly. Asaba actually did ok in a poor team, and was only here 1 season, but didn’t meet ...

And talking of Reading record signings, only Steve "the greatest ever short goalkeeper the world has ever seen" Death (£20k in 1970, Terry Hurlock £92k in 1986, Keith Curle £150k in 1988 and Darren Caskey £750k in 1996) could be said to have been successful. The rest, Steve Moran, Craig M...

Aluko + a manager/coach who knows what he's doing rather than Aluko + a chain of complete failures without a clue between them. He knew what he was doing by giving Aluko one 88th minute appearance from the bench this season, Still - it dispels some of the nonsense you saw about his “bad attitude” g...

Winston Biscuit West Ham have conceded more goals than every team in La Liga, every team in Ligue 1, every team bar one in Serie A and every team bar one in the Bundesliga.

To be fair, they've conceded more goals than any club in the Premier League outside the bottom 3.

Boo! Should allow it, just for the

Tbf, our U21s put 9 past Exeter last season.

To be really fair, Exeter's U21s

To be absolutely, completely fair, it was Exeter's U19s

And another thing, which will no doubt crop up sooner or later. The top 16 U21 sides qualify for the EFL Trophy. However, there is a rule that says U21 sides of clubs in Leagues 1 or 2 are excluded. So we don't get to enter twice, and presumably 17th-placed Southampton get a place instead. Boo! Sho...

To be fair, the SPL hasn't been great this season. Celtic and Rangers have been poor. Hearts are a clear cut above the rest. Solid defensively and in Shankland, have genuine quality up front Kilmarnock have been functional but hard to beat. St Mirren got off to a flyer but have been pretty poor sinc...

as a very casual observer of Scotch football can someone help me understand why there is a clamour from the rubbish sides to make it into the top half of the table for when the split happens? (or is there not a clamour and its just a media thing) Its surely much better to be the best side in the bo...

To be fair, their performances do seem to have reflected a slack witted half arsery that evidently is endemic within the culture of the club.

Ali's mental and physical health concerns are well publicised. He hasn't played a game this season but he's on £100k a week. Did Ron Gourlay write up the contract? Young's 37 and on £85k a week.iys stupid money. It's all "sell x,y and z, give Branthwaite a big contract and then sign 3 more play...

Keep hearing a lot of Everton fans saying "Just sell x, y and z and we'll save £30m in wages". Err, no one's going to pay Neil Maupay anywhere near the £70,000 a week you're paying him so he's got zero incentive to go anywhere til his contract runs out next summer. They signed Deli Ali and...

The Old Firm don't play each other in the league any more times than they used to before the split was introduced. It does mean that pretty much every game from now on matters, whether it's for the title, European qualification or relegation so I'd say it's a decent enough innovation in what is othe...

Deluded as fcuk.

Jim Ratcliffe has declared that we wants to end the work from home culture that has crept into non playing staff, starting with the first team squad.

6th highest wage bill in the PL when relegated, brought in £100M from selling 3 players last summer while also receiving parachute payments on top of that, were able to keep their players on those PL wages incl Jamie Vardy being on £140,000 a week, stumbled over the line having looked like they wer...

Liam Moore and Sam Hutchison have signed pre contract agreements with Cambridge

I think it's incredible that when West Germany won the World Cup in1954, their whole league structure was amateur. It only became professional at the creation of the Bundesliga.

I remember the site going into an angst riddled meltdown after Plymouth.
