Show Me The Money!

You having lots of sleepless knights?

Here's to the next 60 pages

Wouldn't be so bad if the online shop was any good. Sadly it isn't. For example you have to spend more than a kids full kit to even get free postage. No easy returns either unless you take it back to the shop itself

Lucky you even getting on a C course.

Gillingham away

Snowball

Think it will be interesting to see which premier league teams are willing to spend £20+ million on a player that might not be quite ready to hit the ground running in the prem. You could say they could loan him out but it's a big wedge for a lot of the prem teams to be able to do that. They will be after players that can hit the ground running. The better bet if i was Alex would be to follow the Bellingham route and go to Dortmund if they were to show interest.

Yeah, they aren't like for like. I was more interested in the fact that quite a few responses wanted Scott over an established Premier League and England international

Just seen one post from some Spurs news type Twitter accounts asking if fans would prefer to sign Maddison for 50 million or Scott for £20 million. A lot of replies going for Scott Twitter link

Agree it was an amazing tournament in that England got to the semis but apart from the actual semi final itself we were pretty poor and very lucky to not go out sooner. My fave WC was Mexico 86. The baking heat, those ridiculously big box nets and some brilliant high scoring games. Maradona in his pomp as well (forgetting the HOG). Brazil in Spain 82 though were out of this world. Some of the best goals I've ever seen. I'm fact the Socrates dummy for Eder to flick and then volley into net probably is my fave ever goal.

Newcastle throwing away lots of money on Antony Gordon might put them off spending lots on very young players. Then again they are run by the Saudis so might give us £50 million ?

Maddison wouldn't be a replacement for Rice though.

Are you who people call if they are at the other end of the happiness scale? The Anti-Samaritans!

And not forgetting the singing and dancing!

BT used to show it for free on its website or youtube. Don't know if they are this year

Just you wait till this time next season we’ll be crossing ourselves off that graphic Believe!!! ?

Football has changed a bit since then.

You are probably right. Don't know if I'm bitter but I'm not full of joy that a smaller club than ours has worked it's way up from non league and made it to the prem past us who for the same period of time has pretty much pissed money up the wall and got ourselves into a financial mess. I don't think I'd be particularly pleased for any team winning the play offs, but I do class myself as a miserable git

Be interesting to see if the fact Moyes was Everton manager for so long has any sway on the team and way he plays against Leicester. Hoping so being an Everton fan. Though I do feel Everton will screw up and Leicester or Leeds will take advantage

I don't think any of the posts I've seen raising concerns or doubts on this are trying to persuade anyone who thinks this is a great move that they are wrong. It's just an opinion. Which is what forums are for. It's not a them against us thing.

We aren't signing the Joe Bryan from then though. He's hardly played recently. That's the concern. I hope he's a success, I really do. If we can get his career back on track then great.

He was a top-end championship player on his day in my opinion. Is he that standard now? I guess we shall see. As I said, I hope he the success that a lot here think or hope he will be. And, yes, I do know we aren't in the prem but if you want to get to the prem you need players who can be of that level. I don't think Joe is right now. My opinion. Hope I'm proved wrong

The reason he hasn't been playing sadly is that he wasn't good enough to play at prem level. When he did play from what I can remember watching on MOTD he didn't have many creative moments and was part of a very leaky defence. The fact he's hardly played since dropping out of first team contention and that includes when Fulham were in the Champ previously is the concern. Yes, he was a good player for us in the past and had some exciting highlights, which attracted the interest of Fulham and Villa, but is he better than what we've got now. I'm not convinced. I hope I'm wrong and slipping the City shirt back on puts his career back on track but this feels more like a transfer of the heart than the head to me.
