  1. "We're all here for the Fellow's Goal Machine" - to the tune of Yellow Submarine would work
  2. "We all live in a Fellow's Submarine" seems more likely πŸ˜‰
  3. Unfortunately I struggle to imagine the Northam hitting the high notes
  4. One of those crosses in that twitter compilation was for Adam Armstrong. May have been able to pass on details of attitude, how he trains etc Good to see that he can play it back on the floor for our stumpy forwards as well as hang it up at the back post for Downs & Nessie
  5. But aside from his 9 A* at GCSE he has continued his French& Spanish after A level - so clearly ambitious...He signed a four year contract so he'll be here two years probably.
  6. Stu Armstrong would like a word...
  7. His contract is up in 2027 so they want to sell him this window. Surely personal terms are done at this point. Just need to meet in the middle on the fee. Interesting to note that last year 3 free kicks made you the best in Europe; yet JWP scored 4,4, and 3 in his three last PL seasons with us. Hasn't scored one since...
  8. One of those four goalies will go back to the under 21 squad
  9. Doesn't he play for Boca Juniors?
  10. Rangers & RM on a hiding 8-1 on aggregate 5 mins into second half 😁
  11. Listening to Adam Blackmore it sounds like Azaz is virtually over the line. So that got me thinking about a team for Watford (and the blue few) and I realised that a Ralph style 4-2-2-2 might suit us better than a 4-2-3-1. Thoughts?
  12. Edwards played as a DM twice for QPR and not at all in previous seasons. Despite this he is clearly the 'footballer' amongst our back line. Could we convert him to a back up DM?
  13. 43 goal involvements (ie goals or assists) in his last 93 games in the Championship. Clearly he's wank at this level πŸ™„ I think the comparison with Tadic might be relevant. We had a portion of our fanbase who saw him as a lazy 'luxury' player. And then he left and absolutely shredded it at Ajax and even the doubters noticed his absence. He would have quiet spells and then pull out a piece of magic. Now all we need are Stewart Armstrong and Archer to start finishing like prime Pelle & Mane...
  14. West Ham interested amongst other PL. May be their fall back if we keep Matty
  15. The irony is that he went out on loan the season that Will Still managed them
  16. Speaking in his pre-match press conference on Wednesday, Lens manager Pierre Sage confirmed that Guilavogui did not take part in training this morning as his transfer nears completion: β€œHe wasn’t with the group because he’s on his way out.” The move would reunite Guilavogui with Will Still, who took charge at Southampton this summer. The striker joined Lens from Paris FC in 2023 and has registered 7 goals in 47 appearances across all competitions.
  17. You don't think he's a bit of a tit?
  18. * Hilarious watching Quarshie planting his feet and Norwich players bouncing off him 😁 * Archer is not blessed with a wide array of talents as footballer; but has a superb snap shot * Nessie really wants to make that No9 spot his. Having a great game - one assist, and at least two chances missed by millimetres. * Shay Charles and Ronny Edwards both player of the season for their Championship teams last year but really struggling for consistency so far. * Maybe Wood ought to start wearing Petr Cech type headgear πŸ˜‰
  19. I completely understand about the various positional choices. But aside from Quashie (who's had a shocker the last two games, and as a young player might have had his confidence destroyed had he screwed up again today) all of those players played a part in the game. Whilst we would all like a bit more quality, the 'deadwood' for me is players that can't get into the 18 for the match day. Wood seemed to be doing OK judging by Blackmore's commentary, but I can't claim to have watched him closely. He definitely got some good blocks in.
  20. Rohl has proved himself to be a bit of a helmet though this summer. Happy with Still for the moment. Think he'll come good once the window has closed; provided we get some quality in through the door before then. If you watch the pressers he's not convinced by 3 at the back either. Now we've got our new Danish RB I bet we'll see a back four next game.
  21. Who that was picked today do you class as dead wood? I'm sure we'd all like a PL standard squad, but of the players we have at the club who would you have played today instead?
  22. I think you're reading too much into it. He was trying to take responsibility in the middle and drive the team forward at the end, just made a few errors because he is a bit off top form right now.
  23. ABK already has - loan to Nantes. Will Still as good as said Edozie and Aribo are off in the presser
  24. Ross and Damien invited for chicken dinner at Flynn's house was it?!
