Think this one is close. Aberdeen are done and replacement is announced. Today or tomorrow maybe?

Appreciate the ‘football started before 92’ view and it’s very valid, but this is a metric that’s going to be used. Needs sorting. Top flight even for just 1 year changes everything - financially and in terms of the external view of our club. 

Well if Leicester can do it at 5000/1…

If he gets a goal or assist against us I’m gonna headbutt the floor.

All the best Jay.

Every website I use makes some errors. For the best and most reliable stats, @Davefevs is your man (if he doesn’t mind of course!).

Nothing guarantees the ‘big’ clubs are great, could be unstable summers of upheaval. Equally, nothing to say the ‘shit’ teams don’t nail the summer tactically and are flying next season. Take each game as it comes.

Is the O`Brien deal done then ?

No not to my knowledge, but I do believe we want him, so I factored him in. 
 

Most the itk seem to believe Mcrorie and Bryan are done, O’Brien and Currie are hopeful. 

I’m not expecting any news on anyone for at least another week or two as teams wrap up their seasons. It’s a weird quirk of this season with the big World Cup break - massively different final days. 
 

I really do think we’ve two in the pipeline and ready to fire, just gotta be patient.

A trophy is forever, relegation is temporary. Football is about winning things. If we won the Championship then got immediately relegated, it’d be a downer but it wouldn’t take away the fact we won the Championship. 

Nige will be greeted like a king at the King Power. Hopefully he leaves a villain!

He’s had surgery, they’re doing it now to have him back for pre-season/next season. 

I think we can trust Tinnion to turn that ship around. In terms of unknowns over the past year, we’ve gotten Tanner and Anis, both of whom look good. O’Brien looks another in that mould. The work he’s done in the academy proves his eye for a gem, I think we’re starting to see that in the market.

Palmer’s tricks not coming off.

Get innn

Horrible memories of Eriksen and Muamba but no defibs thankfully. Still no replay of what happened but hope he’s ok.

Something very wrong with Lockyer here. Unclear what’s happened but not good. Fingers crossed he’s ok. 

Mon then Cov. **** Luton.

Wow, what an ending. Heartbreaking for Dortmund.

Will be very odd not hearing his voice when stuck in traffic post-match. Big shoes for somebody to fill. Happy retirement Geoff!

I have to disagree with that. I think our support is, in the main, positive especially when the chips are down. LJ benefitted from a positive crowd on many occasions here. I recall early in Nige's reign looking for that elusive first three points at home and the crowd noise ramped up to help get that win.

Equally I recall playing Cov at home during the McWinless reign when we had Bolasie, Albert & Jon Stead where the crowd played its part.

I've been to many away games where the home crowd turn on their team very quickly.

I'm honestly just thinking of the most recent season. Many times I can recall where we'd concede a goal (a horrid feeling of course) and then right away the fans got restless to the point we were moaning and groaning and shouting at every small mistake. It's no wonder our attack then looks out of sorts, the players may see a pass that's difficult but could put us in a really strong position but think 'no, if I try that and it goes wrong I'm in the shit'. The crowd is too quick to turn support into just waiting to criticise. It's an area we can improve imo.

We’re a horrid home crowd at times. Turn so negative so quickly - it really doesn’t help the team.

Ok it was right to move him on but if you think MOL is a better keeper you are deluded.

Then colour me deluded

People were lauding his shot-stopping last weekend, they’ve now seen the other side right call to move him on.

Good point.

Was chatting to @GrahamC last night…

…said if Kalas, Scott and Dasilva went and we signed four (*), we’d look like this:

Collins? I must’ve missed that rumour?
