I'm hopeful, based on: - The ex-Brentford guy being involved. Player recruitment and trading there has been exceptional - The multi-club vision. We don't seem to be in the hands of a 'Burnley style, debt-based no apparent plan or reason' owner. Of course, they have to deliver, and this window is their first chance to show us their mettle. I'm also impatient and want to see some progress. NOW! It is amusing seeing some of the negative comments on here already.

That'll raise a debate as to whether French League 2 is a higher standard than English League 2! Agreed though. A cheap option as a backup, out on loan (presumably with a recall option) and potential sale fee down the line. Seems sensible.

Raoul Moat? (Or will I get shot for saying such a thing?)

The away kit sounds appropriate - watching Saints last season made a few of us sick.

Maybe we should hire Burnley's goalkeeping coach? They do seem good at developing keepers.

Would make a nice change from the white flags.

That's tragic. I have a sibling and mate both battling stage 4. Fucking shitty disease. Wish him all the best!

That's lovely boy.

How long until the replacements are named? Guessing we'd want them in asap to prepare properly for the all-important pre-season. Presumably we have the lined up, signed up and ready to go. No rumours, links or ITK claims yet though.

Get him a new contract and bring in someone experienced like Phil Jones to play alongside him.

Because they're the bestestest ever. Because they are. Calm down our kid. Eh.

I'd rather watch Solihull Moors.

Why isn't Ancelotti crying? I thought that's what you do when you beat the 'Pool 1-0.

Ohhh. Coutois a little bitchy in his interview!

They'll be a vigil. They'll also be very few Parisian car stereos still in situ come sun-up.

I love that they're promoting a Solihull Moors game, during the CL final.

Hmmm. Not seen a near post save yet, so let's not get carried away.

Have RM won the first header from every set piece? Fantastic defensively set up.

Yep. And it's interesting to think about which of the players we'll be signing this summer.

I worry about the 'Pool players now. A goal behind, in such a big game and with so many asthma victims on the pitch, it could get ugly.

YES!

They need to be careful. There might be a 'too many fans in the stand, a few people hurt, scenario.' (Is that comment in bad taste??)

That the thing I've been wondering.

Yep. Despite the Scouse gits having a few chances, I get the impression RM are playing well within themselves. Very much in second gear right now.

I bet a Scouse twat runs onto the pitch.
