Currently in sunnier climes and some oik moored his tub next to the Milton of the Seas. Proper hipster gobshite, assumed he was a timeshare salesman, but then started asking about affiliate membership of the CoT and where he could get a wheatgrass soy latte.

Agree, a metronome player, didn’t see him give the ball away.

Agree, caused all sorts of problems for the QPR defence when he came on, him and Adam Armstrong like a Luchador midget tag team! Great to see, we just need that target man now...

Think Russell Martin is trying to sign the Scotland team

Takeshi’s Castle a more appropriate analogy.

Yes it does sometimes feel like that, albeit with the special needs department outside the classroom licking the Perspex safety windows whilst drawing crude dicks in the steam from their angry breath. I’m all for banter, give and take, but the ad hominem personal stuff seems juvenile and odd to me, name calling et al. Obviously some history between certain posters but the glove puppet and reactive shite is tedious. Knock yourselves out, literally if you like.

Great comparative post, cheers Kraken! 👊

Plus some of these bizarre personalised attacks are making the group rather reticent to pass on information. No need for it.

It’s like late Chris Nicholl all over again, for discerning posters of a certain age.

Wilcox is going to need a Paul Daniels week now!

My view, club was never going to turn down a £20m plus deal for a player they tried to get rid of this time last year. Let’s hope we have a genuine replacement lined up.

It was going to be 5pm but they had to go to IKEA to buy a chair for the photos.

60 monthly instalments 😂

You’re doing the right thing by staying inconspicuous during selection. Ask Turkish to tell Gerhard to squeegee the edge of the pool as it’s unsightly.

Either a fucking big pool or a public boating lake, I hope that given your recent application to the CoT that it’s the latter 🦄🍺 ⭕️

He’s a buzzy terrier of a player, very different to the languid Edozie and gets up defenders noses. At this level he may well do ok for us. In our first three games Armstrong and Adams have had a similar effect in terms of movement able to unsettle and rattle championship defenders. If Fraser is up for it he could be a squad asset, but that’s the rub. I’d have him over Dnjepo and Aribo in terms of end product off the bench.

Agree. Hearing Holgate close, you have to hope that our scouting is better than previous in these circumstances.

Ruben Selles?

But he can speak fluent French and Scottish...

Sensing the influence of Eric Black in this!

Far too narrow, needs to be distributed in terms of age, race, sexuality, religion, social class and disability if we are travelling down this bumpy road. In terms of her statement it’s rather like booking the Cheeky Girls as a novelty support act at a Rolling Stones Concert and them demanding half the takings.

I think Wilcox is very much Dragan's organ grinder and the rest of the new boardroom hires a troop of monkeys. Could be wrong of course but I think we will measure success or failure of our boardroom mainly on JW this season - if he gets sucked over by the Dyson in the meantime I'd wager that he will be on his toes. He's been a revelation in terms of the sales, but he now needs to do the business in recruitment - much harder, but keeping the faith for now.

That'll teach me for typing in haste on a crowded train - when Saturday comes of course. I am however looking forward to tomorrow also, doing some outreach work at Pedants Anonymous - seeing some familiar faces from here

Agree with all of that. Really looking forward to SMS Saturday afternoon, been a while since that was regularly the case.

One thing to consider as a cause for optimism. When Wilcox came he joined with Man City on the crest of a wave, his stock as high as it is likely to get. Bit of a coup for Saints. I don’t think he joined to be a hatchet man or a yes man, and the board could have employed a hatchet man or a yes man much, much cheaper. Ankersen being miles away from the day to day in Turkey and France is also a positive, particularly if it’s by design. Fuckety frustrating at the mo but we have to wait for the close of the window. Let’s hope that this last week is positively Koemanesque! Keep the faith chaps, imagine a convincing win tomorrow and that daft sticker album filing up a bit next week.
