And injured....

I was just about to post that it doesn't look as bad as I thought it would... It's all relative though...

Nah... 0-0 mate... you heard it here first

Indeed. If Matsuki starts as DM I'll gently weep. We shouldn't be having to put square pegs in round holes on day 1 of a new football season, especially one where we give everyone else a 4 point head start...

What were internet forums invented for, if not fretting?

Eric Bristow Alex Higgins David Bryant

I've got my 'excuses fabricated by the club' bingo card at the ready... "Picked up a knock in training" "Caught a virus" "Had a chicken dinner at Flyn Downes' gaff"

Definitely the best female anatomy reference since...

It is, but if we end up with a team that's not as good as last year (on paper) then it's a blatant lie (regardless of how vague it is)

At least I get to dust off my "Sport Republic Out" banner if they f*** up (again)...

Yay! Charles is back!

A legal case they weren't part of... If you don't count the several conflict-of-interest members of the 'independent' panel of course.... #letitgo

Only just seen the Leicester result... Another Russell Martin unbeaten run masterclass is underway! #letitgo

Absolutely. In fact, I've decided to never to mention it again after 2031, if that's ok with you?

Assume you typed that sentence 15 minutes ago and just hit enter at the appropriate time...?

As long as the "how to wipe your own arse" government guidance is equally clear...

We're they 'Standard' fireworks...?

Using a national "severe alert" system to tell people not to set fire to parched fields. No shit Sherlock. And then sending it another 3 times. Twats.

Indeed. All a tad odd.

Or....we might be as good as promoted by Christmas and want to start giving the likes of Oyekunle match practice with the squad ahead of our push for European qualification next season... 😁

An interesting read indeed.... Thanks for posting. There's certainly a few snippets of hitherto unreported detail in there, which I wonder why are only coming out now...?
