Seems like Scammacca and Antonio are more likely to leave than Ings. I'd be happy with Ings coming back but wages would be a big issue even if he was prepared to drop down. We'd also need to shift some more players too.

The United Kingdom and the Death of Boris Johnson as we know it.

Do you like being bullied or sexually harassed? It's much easier to get in if you do. -
TBH I don't think many people have seen enough of him to make much of a judgement. Sounds like a decent player and hopefully is so look forward to seeing him play. Amo-Ameyaw lad has looked really good in the couple of pre season games and the sub appearance at Liverpool though.
-
Totally agree. I think we should be buying players that are both good enough for promotion but also really good in the premier league. I don't know why anyone hasn't thought of this before but it's a great idea. Hopefully we can do our stuff under the radar.
-
Thanks. I wasn't really being serious though.

I presume that's why we've brought in Wilcox - he'll have experience of working round FFP with Man City.
-
Isn't it because the European windows all shut at the end of August? Pretty sure we tried one season to end ours the day before our domestic season started but everyone got annoyed because it put English clubs at a disadvantage compared to other leagues.

I was surprised to learn that crisps actually are political: https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/ampp3d/general-election-how-crisps-you-5590920 My favourite is Mussolini Mustard and Gammon flavour.

I dunno, it's a puff piece for the official site to get his name out there so people know he's supposed to be doing something. All this talk of alignment - we were doing that under Ralph. The example he gave - everyone is ambitious and wants to be in the premier league. Well, shit, show me a club that doesn't have staff that wants that. It's basically management bullshit bingo - there's no real detail in that interview. I've quoted you but it's not really a dig. The interview probably isn't the right vehicle to go into details that matter and I guess that's fair enough, but it's so anodyne that it's difficult to find a reaction either way. Good luck to the fella though.

I think they mentioned he picked up Cornet for Burnley and Duk seems to be a decent prospect at Aberdeen. Meant to look at whether he had any links to Stewart but forgot - I guess he can ask his brother though.
-
because it's his? I think he has an ebay shop though so might be worth waiting till it comes on there.
-
Overall, you're right - he didn't have anywhere near the presence he needed. It's a shame because he had an absolute blinder against Liverpool (think it was the game that Ralph cried). I hoped he would kick on but never happened.
-
They probably take an average of all three.
-
Revolution Saint: "Southampton have said no chance to bids less than £50M for Romeo Lavia. As it stands Liverpool look set to miss out on the highly rated youngster. Fans are furious" Has a better ring to it.
-
Cheers both. That does make sense, I didn't know the cameras won't also snap you at over the limit as well as calculate the average speed.
-
OK, I’m probably going to annoy you even more but if you get snapped doing more than 50MPH (or whatever the average limit is) but your average is less than 50MPH then do you still get nicked? I don’t tend to drive in many average speed sections so I honestly don’t know, although I probably should.
-
What would be nice if these articles had a bit of a change in tone. So instead of us being over valuing or being unrealistic, we get articles calling Burnley a bit cheap, without a pot to piss in, or skint.
-
I'm glad the one person left in the UK who didn't know, now does.
-
It didn't initially - edited later.
-
Adam Armstrong was second half. Missed the first half but think you’re right on the others.
-
I think he goes and probably to West Ham. They’ve been the most consistently linked and the first bid is just the start of the dance. We’ll have a few weeks of back and forth and maybe we’ll get Flynn Downes in return but I don’t hold out much hope that JWP will stay. My only concern is we extract as much as we can for him and that enables us to perhaps keep hold of players like Alcaraz, Tella, Tino, and Sulemana.
-
20M + Flynn Downes? I could see us negotiating something around that kind of deal.
-
Yeah, seems like we tried to keep him so from that perspective it's obviously not positive but in terms of factors that determine how successful we'll be then I'd put the quality of the squad and ability of the manager far higher than an individual coach. Ideal opportunity to bring back Dennis Rofe though - I'm still standing for Stoneham after all these years.
