Re: AFCON

Sutekh Tunisia 0-1 Namibia

Rank outsiders (115 in the world) turning over a tournament favourite in the 88th minute.

Couldn't decide whether the Namibian keeper was having as good a game as the commentators reckoned or if Tunisia were just rubbish in front of goal.

Re: Confrimed - Abbey and Holmes going

Still seems bizarre that a player who has struggled to get into a League 1 team this year is heading to the Premier League (if only for a few months). What are the Luton fans saying?

Re: Weekend Football

Have Man United considered letting S'Alex sit on the bench. That always used to guarantee a few extra penalties a season.

Re: Generic clubs in financial crisis Thread

How does it work for promoted clubs like Forrest? Are the EFL and Premier League rules the same so they can use 3 years of accounts.

Re: Players at clubs who you had completely forgotten about

Is he injured again at the moment? Just suddenly realised when watching the match yesterday that he was nowhere to be seen and I couldn't remember when I last saw him on a pitch.

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

Given the way the club was being run, I reckon we'd have wasted the Premier League money getting ineffectual players in on huge wages. They we'd have wasted the parachute payments having forgotten to put relegation clauses into contracts and chasing the 'dream' again.

BRO_BOT KDB's new barnet is a no, for me!

I get that his rehab has taken some time but surely there's got to be a better hobby to have tried than trying to grow yourself some 90s boyband curtains.

Re: Ex Players

Other teams had worked us out by the World Cup, Ince's plan A wasn't that great and he didn't have a plan B. I think that probably did as much for the player's morale as the points deduction. They were getting sent out every week knowing the game plan was shit.

Re: Confirmed - Ejaria gone

i still believe Reading is still an attractive option for a lot of players. Not convinced we are in any way, shape or form an attractive option unless we're signing players on loan whose wages are covered 100% by their parent club. Ejaria going doesn't mean his wages are necessarily off the books, ...

Re: LOLiverpooLOL - Next Season

Also am I the only one thinking Gakpo is getting a bit of an easy ride, he's been way less effective than Nunez and seems to have escaped any criticism.

Are we putting an asterix next to the hattrick against Spurs as they'd been down to 9 men for a while before he scored?

Re: We're ManchesteROFL United, we do what we want

I know he is only 20, but that Hoijland looks sh*te what service does he get? All the Utd wingers do is shoot from stupid places That's fair, Anthony does 15 step overs then scuffs the ball out of play. Bit harsh, sometimes he does 14 step overs then scuffs the ball out of play. Hoijland doesn't lo...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I guess Bristol City were of equal size in 1982. They technically folded. Middlesbrough technically folded in 1986 but rules then allowed a new company to be set up and continue the football side from the same position. They also had to repay all debts in full not just football iirc, unlike the clu...

Re: Weekend Football

BRO_BOT The Blues have really shat the bed this last month or so

This experiment with playing central defenders as midfielders has to stop soon doesn't it. Phillips and Kovacic sat on the bed watching Stones and Akanji play there must make they wonder what they have to do to get a start.

Re: The generic transfer thread

At the time Courtois went down DdG was probably holding out for a longer contract not just a one season deal like Madrid were probably looking at. He can't afford to be that fussy now, leave it much longer and doubts will creep in from clubs about how long it'll take him to get back up to match spee...

I'm taking the cynical approach that it's harder for him to get sacked if he's owed wages.
