  1. Ageist! ??? I’m 50.....yeah, actually you’re right!
  2. Well summed up @Alessandro Its kinda why I do it as well.
  3. Looking forward to having you online.
  4. The Bobby Gould one was my favourite....just a lovely listen. You and @Shtanleyhave a nice way in your interviews.
  5. Brilliant weren’t they? Also worth FBC too: Bobby Gould Geoff Twentyman Steve Scott
  6. I think they’re all good, appeal to different posters in different ways. Think as a fan base we are lucky to have a wide variety to listen to.
  7. Yes, I think Lez was credible on FBC when he appeared in the earlier episodes. People can be very different behind a keyboard.
  8. Am I right in thinking all league games are on FA player?
  9. I see a couple of the players are back, Carla Humphrey and Sophie Baggely....key players.
  10. Won’t count as the opposition are from Yorkshire.....just pre-empting Belter Weird’s post tonight!
  11. It wasn’t though was it? Other than Fielding the outfield ten had started 149 of 240 league games available (62%). People sucked into the rhetoric that they made 8 changes, the likes of Romeo was a returning first teamer as was Bennett, whilst Zohore has only recently returned. I totally get they didn’t play Williams or Wallace, but you can see that it wasn’t as far off their first team as “8 changes” makes it look. Of course I’m not saying Millwall are a great Champ team either, but it wasn’t a “reserve team” either.
  12. How can someone be league one level, when arguably he was our man of the match on Saturday?
  13. Could he offer more than Fam? Yes, in the right team set up. I really hope that if Fam goes we replace him with something different.....pace.
  14. Don’t worry, the sooner some people realise that they are constraining their thought processes by using terms like “striker” to evaluate performance of a player the better. It can be useful, in its simplistic form, but perhaps demonstrates why English football hasn’t evolved like in other countries. Thomas Muller, idolised in Germany, Dirk Kuyt, “doesn’t score enough” in this country. What does that say? Same as people thinking 433 is more attacking than 451, and the number of “strikers” determines your “attackingness”. What a load of horseshit!! A recent German squad simply listed their players as Goalkeepers, Defenders and Forwards. Not striker in sight.
  15. Yep, and he’s more of a forward than a “goal scoring striker” at this fledgling part of his career. 82 appearances (41 starts) 9 goals, 10 assists. Mins 4316. Equiv of 48 full-90s. That’s the context, and that’s not too shabby for a guy who plays all across the line. Abd that’s not adding in his general contribution. A lot to look forward too.
  16. Yes it was. He became director in 2006. I worked for him from 2004-2007, he was very senior, but he drank with my immediate boss, so I spent several lunch “hours” hearing bits and pieces. He wasn’t very popular with fans I can tell you.
  17. One of my old bosses was brought in as a financial consultant / Director in the dark days at AFCB and said the whole club couldn’t get its head around that they were spending more money than they brought in.
  18. It sounds like it is, and Women’s costs can be excluded from men’s FFP if under the same accounts.
  19. I think he’s someone else, with a different name. The Nagy love-in is a giveaway.
  20. No, that’s cash flow. From a pure P&L point of view, their sales are booked in full in these accounts. Not forgetting in both cases we will have had to pay money to Preston and Ipswich too.
