Cheers. Yeah, agree about not jumping to conclusions, however the anecdotal evidence out there isn't favourable towards DaGrosa. Was rather hoping there were other interested parties and that the club we're using DaGrosa's interest as negotiating fodder. If DaGrosa is the only show in town, here's hoping the details are more reassuring than the apparent misgivings on the surface.

Hi Hypo, Do you know if the DaGrosa 'bid' is the only party interested in acquiring the club as things stand, or are there other prospective owners engaged in talks? Cheers

Same thought has crossed my mind. Would surprise me if such things aren't regulated...

This DaGrosa fella has got 'Tommac' written all over him... If there's any legs in this then I fear for our club's future. Hopefully the 'Katharina veto' is genuine and that she's got her 'once bitten (Gao), twice shy' hat well and truly fixed to her head...

Get in!!

Bit of a mixed bag first half for Ings. Apart from his splendid through ball to CL he's been chasing shadows somewhat and playing a few loose balls. Tenacious as ever though. Not helped by another static England midfield either.

Every cloud... although assume he's now out of the Chelsea game regardless?

Any chance you could post something like this on a daily basis just in case we forget how unimpressed you are with this transfer? Much obliged

IIRC, in the season we won the Premier League 2 Cup (or whatever it was called), we had a pretty stable u23 side who had played together consistently. Repeating what I said earlier but every u23 / b team line up these days seems to be significantly different to the previous game. That surely can't help with player gelling which is a key influencing factor on team performance, can it?

Poor result tonight but that looks like a bit of a makeshift line up. Only one centre back for example? There doesn't seem to be much consistency with our B team line ups so far this season so little chance of any gelling taking place. If we're gonna be serious about this concept of the B team shadowing the first team then I'd hope to see a bit more consistency in the line ups. (That said, I guess we can't / won't play the same line up across different competitions)

Fair play to @hypochondriac again. He did say things should start moving on the ownership front around mid-October

The ghost of Dalek lives 😂

Now that the transfer window is done and dusted, do you think we'll finish top half or bottom half of the table this season...? Top half for me (surprise, surprise!)

I used to holiday in Cornwall as a kid - loved it there. However, as an adult, I've tended to holiday in more exotic locations because of my financial situation allowing me to do so and wanting to see what the rest of the world has to offer. I holidayed back in Cornwall last month and will probably do so more often in the future now I've reached a certain age of life. I didn't love Cornwall any less because I chose to holiday elsewhere for a period of time.... This post was brought to you by the Potentially Dodgy Analogies Corporation.
