Yes we did Krka but from Split, beautiful but yes will be a trek from Dubrovnik

We went last year (2 + 9yr + 14yr girls) although we did dual centre Dubrovnik and then Split across 10 days. Best day trip was Lopud Island and Sunj beach, you need to take a ferry ride from Dubrovnik to get to the island but then there's golf buggy taxis to the beach itself, quite fun, nice vibe to it and actual sand (which is rare round there) and excellent fish restaurant Obala there too https://www.obalalopud.com/ I guess to make a day of it you need to start early (and youre not starting in central Dubr) so if you like a slow, lazy start to holiday days it might be too much faff. Lokrum Island is worth doing - if you are a Game of Thrones person I guess already on your list. I don't know shit about GoT but you don't need to - the Island and little boat trip all lovely anyway - 3/4 hours of a day maybe. Can't remember all the restaurants but we did one called Arsenal which is a nice spot in the Marina https://www.nautikarestaurants.com/gradska-kavana-arsenal/ There are no restaurants called Leyton Orient. Loads of obvious things to do - cable car brilliant. We wish we did the zip wire but 9 Yr old didn't want to. We did Stand Up paddle boarding, I hated it but kids liked it. Old Walls and strolling round the town brilliant, obviously. Beautiful. Main warning is loads of beaches that aren't particularly beaches - some pebbles and concrete and sun loungers. We stayed near Banje Beach which was quite nice. Anyway, enjoy it!

It's brilliant Tanswell still working a bit on Saints. Great investigative journalist. Keep the info coming Jacob.

I heard he was Wandering around the course. And saying he was Hungry. Hungry like a Wolf. He's going to Wolves he's going to Wolves I tells ya

Someone will need to pinpoint the season that Aston Villa got relegated and then immediately started fending off bids for Premier League midfielder Jack Grealish.

Forest will be in pole position because they're in the Premier League. If we are going for Wood we won't sign another CB.

He was never coming to us, he's never going to play for us again and we do not need him to get promoted. The fact that you are telling yourself little fairy stories - he'll accept lower wages because he loves the super Saints - just shows this is a silly wet dream and not grounded in any reality whatsoever. Get over it.

No, mainly people thinking maybe we all get on with our lives than just mooning over old players that used to play for us, especially when they are going to be 40 this year. Maybe there are other football players on this planet who are more appropriate for us right now. If he never played for us no fucker would be suggesting we sign him for this season. Anyway, we all look forward to Nordic Saint writing the 357th version of his Jose Fonte tribute post the very next time he plays a match on TV.

I would think their chief exec Nicola Cortese has been closely monitoring our players for some time

Any updates anyone????

Interesting noises coming from coastal towns. Soon, a good day for craftsmen of old. What kind of oil do you mean? They make them strong out there. Out west where lands are flat there are winds of change. Despite the holes, there are useful signs so we should clock that. Northerners, carpenters, letter writers and Holy men will be celebrating too.

Pretty obvious you are going to be disappointed regardless of what happens between now and the window closing.

Let's hope that comes through because we're on the bones of our arse here. We need that money so bad

....but Nathan Tela might be hailed as the new Jude Bellingham though, right?

Wonderful development opportunity for him.

He has been replaced. Ryan Fraser is the replacement.

I came here for the shittest possible take on JWP, so thanks for providing it.

Mention anything remotely about incoming fees "supporting the club" = let's beat the club with this stick Don't mention anything about incoming fees "supporting the club" = let's beat the club with this stick

We'd have never got £20m for him if he'd bimbled about in our Prem team last season, so sensational bit of business from that perspective. And to be honest of all the positions he feels pretty replaceable, and Fraser alongside these youngsters we've got it covered. If Sulemana stays it's actually well covered. Good luck to him.

Nah.

Was he mincing around like a son in law?

Didn't see it but from the commentary he sounds like exactly what we need.

He looks like a wotsit

I'll admit it will be strange if we sign Wood before ABK is sold/loaned giving us a glut of CBs but we wouldn't stretch to signing Piroe before we sold Tall Paul or Che. We're prepared to be overstocked at Centre Back but not up front.

Chalet is surprisingly roomy and there's a Black Lace tribute on tonight so all good for a proper knees up
