As others have previously mentioned, surely we knew about the £10m work permit threshold at the time we drew up our target list? So, why on Earth did we pursue someone who we knew we couldn't sign...?

A bit like Ings wasn't (initially) the same after his major injuries...?

At least it's an upgrade on Factless Allen

Depends how hollow said apology is, I guess?

Even the whiter-than-white Scottish separatists are up to it...

Assume that 30 man squad will have to be whittled down to 20-something after the friendly and before the Nations League fixtures? Would imagine it being touch and go for JWP to make the cut.

Apart from the £1billion worth of transfers that have taken place thus far in this transfer window...?

Are you ITK? Does seem a slightly random comment not to have an element of ITK about it...

I'm still disappointed they didn't get promoted last season. Would have taken the hilarity to stratospheric levels.

Daily Express reader per chance...?

Can anyone rustle up one of those attributes pinwheel/pie-chart doo-dahs for this Veerman fella? (Sorry, can't remember the website that does such things). Cheers 👍

Whilst I agree with that assessment, I thought Armstrong provided a level of midfield dynamism that was missing in the first couple of games he was out for. Don't think it'll be long before he shakes off the rustiness.

Cheers 👍
