I’d genuinely just be happy if we had a team who performed better than the sum of its parts. I think that’s what was starting to happen under Nige and that’s what makes it all the more annoying. 

Let’s be honest, a team togetherness and over performing is the only way we’ll get out of this league upwards, because as you rightly point out, we can’t compete any other way.

Well he would, if he knew what "statistically" meant.

Statistikally.

I feel old.

Yep. I thought this needed to be moved to the transfer section. 

As a side note, seems bizarre we have a thread about some drum and bass no mark and we have to have a different section for threads on LJ and Cotts etc. It just ain’t the same.

No ones said anything about it being driven the medical staff. 
 

But, if the story is that he initially failed a medical in the summer, we’ve now signed him in the January under a new medical team, and he’s now having real trouble with constant tendinitis ever since he joined, that is causing him to not being able to train properly, nor be anywhere near in contention for the u21s let alone the first team. It’s not a good look. 
 

Couple that with:

Tinnion - ‘he’s fine, but going through a mini pre season’

‘he was the best player in Ireland’ 

Manning - ‘he’s picked up a little knock’

He’s now clearly not even training.
 

Then add in the fact by the time next season rolls around, he won’t have played a game in the best part of 10 months, and will be a standard light years ahead of where he’s come from. That’s assuming he’s even good enough to be considered for the first team.  

It’s really terrible optics all round, but pretty consistent with everything coming out of the club, let’s be honest. 

It’s not all doom and gloom. 
 

You’re forgetting about Zak’s new range. 

Should appease the knuckle draggers who get all wound Up when the club wishes supporters “Eid Mubarak”.

So I see Mehmeti got MOTM. If only we could foresee when his next good game will be and we could drop him until then. The new Pato.

Twine has added some much needed creativity. I do worry that Leicester will get out of second gear though. 

I’m at a farm park and was sat next to a Leicester fan. Says they always start slowly. Ominous. 

Mehmeti. Can’t wait. 

I’m still thinking about Vyner’s t-shirt.

Yeah this isn't news, nepotism and crayonism are very much a thing. 

Edited for you mate. Just a slight spelling error.

They'll have been sold the Hundred by then! 

I reckon this could the ’s last year. Absolute dog shit. 

I may be in a minority here but I absolutely love the IPL. It’s everything that every 20 over cricket tournament should be. 

When I retire in 11 years and 8 months, I’ll be booking my plane ticket to go and watch. I imagine it’s incredible. 

Go Rajasthan!

I wonder if they’re having the same debate on OTIRDJ.

Wish I could like this more.

Sell your car to pay for it!

(nice motor btw)

Thanks mate. Seeing as you brought it up… anyone wanna buy a car? 

(gotta make the most of these sales opportunities!)

Forget the whole flag outrage. 

That purple kit is the most beautiful England football kit I think I’ve ever seen.  Part of me wants to buy one. Then I remember the price and the fact that I’m 43. But it very nearly had me. 

Jurassic Park  

I know this won’t go down well with some, but currently the worst signing in our squad is Mehmeti. Hasn’t worked out at all. 

I have no idea about Andy King’s managerial prowess, but realistically what’s the worst that could happen?

For someone my age, my memory isn’t amazing. 

I recall him being solid, if unspectacular. 

But most of all I remember going to Northampton away;

Coventry 5-4 Bristol City. 

Sorry Fonts. That’s my lasting memory.

Still plenty of spaces here mate

 

Thanks mate. I made the mistake of giving kids the option. They chose a farm park. Fortunately I didn’t stay at home to watch City. Every cloud. 

I read the title and I instantly knew it wasn’t a thread about Mebude.
