Shit show from Spors so far

Then why isn’t the EU doing this collective army thing? reason, they can’t. And they know it. we have become almost completely reliant on the USA for our security, which, IMO, is a scandalous position to be in.

Stoke city are a glimpse into the future under Sports Republic

😂

was then when Martin played our 2 strikers on each touchline?

I watched the 2nd half. Leeds brought us Longstaff, whilst Sunderland had Xhaka in their team. Huge difference compared to the weak-as-piss crap we signed

We have Downs mate, that is that

it hit him by his side, not behind his back.

Thought it was a penalty. He leaned right into it, and it would have been on target had it not hit his arm...

Yeah, that is exactly what has happened. Well done

Watching the games so far this season, we are seeing (hopefully) the phasing out of every manager trying to be the new 'Pep'.... More quick attacking play on view, more crosses and higher tempo.

He will alright at best, after a 'period' of settling in, with fans saying 'what do you expect, this is a new environment for him'. Whilst we wait, we are stuck playing like Tony Pulis' Stoke, with at least 5 defenders on the pitch.

Just watched the press conference of all the leaders around the table, and 5% defence spending was mentioned by Trump. It is so obvious that, as you say, Europe will need to pay for US hardware/support because of years of disgraceful underfunding of our own forces have left us all completely hollowed out of machinery and capability

tis the way of the world.

Exactly. People’s suggesting otherwise are just giving the club a metaphorical pass

I never backed anyone, just called it from a realistic view. As said, let’s see Ukraine were never ever going to come out of this without losing ground, and they were pretty much never going to get NATO membership. Crimea is never ever going back to them. Ukraine cannot win, could never win, regardless of all the claims Russia was always about to run out of ammunition and sanctions will take them back to the Stone Age etc.

I get that, but when the owner was pretty specific about it, in public, you have to take him at face value

Yet Dragan stated week ago he sanctioned the purchase of 3 players (identified) not linked to any sales

And continued US support will likely be linked to meeting the 5% spend on defence from European nations.

If this is the level we are signing, what a terrible window this is, and what crap job from Spors

The key is if Ukraine accept it.

Looks like meeting Putin was not a total waste of time after all. let’s see how far this goes.

Next Ryan Smith or Ryan Giggs?
