ExiledAjax

I'm 270 miles from Havana. Apologies. But I'll join you in an early doors toast tomorrow morning. Nice touch with the thread. Well done.

A magical RWB that we can sign and will bomb forward and make the 352 we've tried for two years suddenly tick? Seems pretty pie-in-the-sky stuff to me.

Reads like the sort of lengthy posts we see on here more than a piece of journalism. I like Gregor, and have defended him recently re his "altercations" with Pearson. This reads strangely though...is it really his job to make tactical suggestions to the manager in such a public way? There's no question here, no scoop, exclusive, or new piece of news that no one knows. It's just speculation, postulation, and a slightly odd sign off. A real weird one. Agree with this as well. It seems very early to start criticising team selection and formation. We haven't even lost a league game yet this season.

Brentford away no? Not so winnable, but for those that could go it would be a new stadium. Fun for FGR fans.

Um

Lionel Messi, 34, said: “I am excited to begin a new chapter of my career at Paris St-Germain. "Everything about the club matches my football ambitions. "I know how talented the squad and the coaching staff are here. "I am determined to help build something special for the club and the fans, and I am looking forward to stepping out onto the pitch at the Parc des Princes.” Have you ever read a more banal or unenthusiastic signing statement?

That's what we called it round Cheddar way as well.

Aye, I remember him from the Tampa pre-season camp. He played well in game v Derby, scored the goal IIRC. But got a nasty injury. He comes across as a really good lad, and he's paid his dues on loan at Torquay and on the physio table. I'm delighted that he's taken his chances tonight.

There's not a player in our squad I'd be happier to see have a great season than Janneh.

..side?

Presumably it's pronounced something like "Sitall" or "Sitle" - similar to Cockburn being "Co-burn".

Thanks to Massengo's near post run as @IAmNick pointed out - and to him I say you're doing God's own work posting the goal clip btw. Many thanks.

Saikou!!!

No worries. Took me a minute to realise it would be in there as well. It's not flagged. RB saying we've improved in the last ten minutes.

Have you gone onto the "listen live" tab? Next to "Home".

@RedM Janneh is getting many mentions on RB. Seems to be seeing a fair bit of the ball, but isn't quite able to get past the FGR LB. Fair assessment?

Sounds like Janneh. They just said Simpson passed forward to Janneh. So that suggests he's right.

Kind of. Although I remembered that I get audio through RobinsTV so switched over to that - I think it's the same comms anyway.

Hang on. What. BBC RB Online cuts out at KO. Switched to RobinsTV audio.

Pring and Janneh's debuts according to RB. Is it really? I swear I've seen both in a City shirt. Janneh played in the league for us last season didn't he? Edit: yeh there's literally an OS article about his debut v Sheff Wed. https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/janneh-very-proud-of-debut/

You've a proper soft spot for COD don't you. I had to pop away when he was on. Anything more interesting than the usual "No easy games, great to see the fans travel so well, we're just hoping for the win" type stuff?

The RB reporter has already been stumbling over this!

Pearson on RB just now. On XI changes - strength of it is testament to the squad. A luxury to field a strong side and bench. Mentions relentless season and that he wants progress in the cup and to give players a chance to show what they are about. He expects a strong performance. Decent situation to be in. On the mix of experience and youth - Yeh it's great. Mentions Massengo and Williams in particular. Wells as well. Just generally says that competition for places is good. Semenyo has been training on the grass again. CODs injury - he should be available for the weekend. That was it.

Cardiff currently 1-0 down to a League 2 side btw.
