  1. Asset stripping.
  2. Koeman starts at Goodison in the morning.
  3. Nah. They're world famous and American non-sports fans would be able to name them. Similarly I know nothing about American Football but I can easily name a couple of famous teams, like the Kansas City Bengals and the Texas Red Sox.
  4. Will be nice taking players from Brendan Rodgers from now on.
  5. We wouldn't have finished as high as we did in the table and the squad would be half-filled with ego-signings bought on a whim.
  6. He was really handy at Sunderland a few seasons back.
  7. Breath of fresh air.
  8. I love a flounce out, me. Especially from people who have already flounced out never-to-return a week previously.
  9. 7th in the League and Europa Cup winners. 34k average gates. There's your model right there.
  10. I'd suggest never based on them winning the league when we won the Cup, finishing fifth when we lost to Arsenal in Cardiff and us never finishing above them before this season.
  11. Fair enough. We had marginally more fans than Carlisle. About 25,000 more.
  12. This will be us next year.
  13. Did you go to our JPT final at Wembley?
  14. Nah. Freak season. You'll notice that this season Spurs didn't last and West Ham didn't last.
  15. That's pretty much the scenario that I think is happening which is why I think they will end up agreeing a rolling contract extension which will then mean he will go after year three. We're probably trying to get him tied down for three or two more but we'll compromise on a rolling, which will be spun as an additional year (he sees out his contract, which immediately becomes a rolling one-year deal, so on paper that's a commitment to at least the end of 2017-2018). The club get to announce an extension, Ron gets a pay rise, there's no significant additional commitment and we get three years of our who may be our best ever manager. And if we finish 12th next year and the job offers dry up, he's still got a job and he's not limping out like Big Sam did at WHU. Basically I can't see us terminating early, and I can't really see him committing for three more years, he's going to want to do something else, but I don't think we will let him run it down under any circumstances. But I think there's a resolution there to suit everyone. But darling, it's a life of surprises.
  16. You want a consistent team moulded over the last two years but it's not about the past its about now so why aren't we picking the latest flavour of the month players from Leicester and Spurs. Clear.
  17. Interesting counterpoint to Batman's Migrationwatch report: Refugees will repay EU spending almost twice over in five years - report http://gu.com/p/4jae7?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Copy_to_clipboard
  18. I have no idea about that kid but needless to say if that was us I'd feel uneasy not excited. I'm not convinced WHU or us are ready for £31m signings.
  19. Austin's on fire.
  20. I think that's right - as far as I can see there is no such thing as a EL play off - basically that round is the winners of EL Q3 and the losers from the CL play-offs - no one qualifies for that round without playing at least one other match.
  21. How many Tunnocks Tea Cakes can you eat in one sitting?
  22. Cheers. My favourite bit was when I started day-dreaming about West Brom winning the league cup. The very thought of Pulis in his suit at Wembley made me go all funny in the tummy.
  23. It is fair on Palace to not give Bournemouth a free hit at the 3 million quid for another place in the league, though. Regardless of the team selected, I think United will struggle for intensity, whereas Cherries will be desperate to win.
  24. Shane Long. Bertrand.
  25. Do we have a good bit of rivalry with Brighton? It's only the promotion season I think I ever gave them a second thought, and that was mainly because we were trying to get promoted too, could have been anyone really.
