We are very capable of signing significant players on deadline day. However we don't typically sell major players late on, and filling such a crucial gap on or around deadline day, with all the other changes we've already had, is not ideal. We could well do without it.

Yes, and Mane. What's your point?

Because I think if Manchester United came in for him, we probably would let him go. I'm not talking about deadline day, we're not mental, but late - ie we'd end up signing his replacement on deadline day.

Our main issue with Fonte is he isn't likely to be any big clubs first choice signing but someone they might turn to as back up if another deal falls through, especially as he is such a solid, low risk signing that could slot into a squad easily. What this means is he could be a late deal leaving us proper in the lurch. Those quotes fill me with no confidence whatsoever and more like prepping the ground for a "I'll never forget my time here" farewell statement than a commitment to actually stay. Bag'o'shi te.

7.5/10.

Great thread Charlie.

I know for a fact Carlisle have never played in a cup final like this before.

You must have missed the cult of Cortese turning on Matthew Le Tissier who on here was compared to a supermarket employee who was paid for his work at the time. A similar situation at our club you'd find similar forum comments here.

I apologise for that last post. I was drunk somewhere and don't know what I was doing and honestly can't even remember posting it.

Welcome back Charlie.

Fulham look like they could be going top of the league. Top of the league. TOP OF THE LEAGUE. Going to give them so much momentum. Top of the league.

You're adorable.

Adkins changed tactics from Pards, Poch changed tactics from Adkins and Ron changed tactics from Poch but our new manager isn't allowed to change anything? melt me the fu ck up.

You, me and thirty million odd people who couldn't give two shiny sh ites about "look how many people turned up at that rally in Hull/York/Liverpool". May is too cautious and will be too focused on running the country but if it was me I'd announce a snap election the day after leadership contest. They'd smash Corbyn into the dust.

is the correct answer.

https://twitter.com/JuliaHB1/status/761319862698405888 Corbyn tracking heavily behind "don't know" as best Prime Minister. And still I read nutters on social media and The Guardian comments talking about JC's popularity/groundswell/movement/etc.

Roberto Martinez is the new Belgian national team manager? Not entirely sure if it's not a twitter wind up.

Seems unlikely that a potential signing, who in some quarters has been linked with a move to Manchester United, would be parading around the ground with our captain.

Claude is working on an innovative 2-7-1 formation utilising a midfield pentagon protected by an additional deep lying midfielder and feeding an additional attacking midfielder.

Them being drawn to play Reading's kids is funnier than them playing ours. Reading kids. It is pretty humiliating for for the towering giants of world football.

I was under the impression that he was going to be our sole right-back. Heel do well in my opinion.

It's been nothing short of a miracle. When we were run by the greatest football businessman the world had ever seen we were still tracking behind then-Championship Watford in the commercial revenue stakes so I could only conclude that was the best we could ever do, especially as we were employing the only technique that can ever succeed in business of generally being a total pig-headed pri ck to any stakeholders or potential partners. The fact we are now smashing that number and leaving Watford behind means I can only conclude it's just all a lucky flukey fluke from people who will get found out eventually.

Bonjour, Monsieur La Telfer.
