  1. Tbf Bradley set the benchmark and shit sticks.
  2. Salisu is still very young in terms of a top centre back. It strikes me that he’s got some learning to do and would benefit from being in a strong partnership alongside a good quality, more experienced head. I can see a top ten side coming in for him, Newcastle have been rumoured before, I can see there being a bit of internet in him. He’s obviously got a stubborn streak to him, refused to play for his national side for ages, so absolutely can’t see him staying here next year if there’s any interest at all from a higher league.
  3. Got the telly on, just watching Wesley Hoedt lumber about at the back for Watford. HCDAJFU.
  4. Onuachu, Mara, DCC, Edozie started on the bench. Orsic, Aribo, Bree, Larios didn’t make the bench. 8 players from our transfer strategy this season who for one reason or another didn’t make our first team today. What a fucking disaster.
  5. More fool them for starting with ten men. And I thought they were quite astute. Although you could argue that Selles is doing the same by starting with Eluseless every week, I suppose.
  6. Almost as good as his brother Kevin.
  7. You’d have to be a moron to think Brexit hasn’t had an impact on ferry queues. Oh, hi Jamie.
  8. Yes, she does seem quite sensible.
  9. That was a saga, it ran over days 🤣 it referenced traffic works going on in the area and all sorts of barmy creations. Halcyon days those, bettered only by the b-anted days. When a certain poster by the name of Paul Allen bullied Romsey Stu,into wearing a Ben Sherman shirt to the Derby away playoff game ( and which I was there for that game and saw the little fat Pygmy wearing it, some terrible red and blue tartan affair, bless him).
  10. I remember him saying he lived locally, then when trying to prove it he went to the paper shop and bought (and posted) a foreign copy of The Sun. Gotcha.
  11. I’m struggling to think how that’s even possible, but I don’t doubt it in the slightest. The guy was a complete fruitcake wanker.
  12. Christ, I’d forgotten just how mental Dave is/was. What an absolute fucking weirdo.
  13. Seriously fella, you really need to reign in your Narcissus complex and your desire to be perceived as some sort of online social justice warrior. At the moment you’re just making yourself look very daft.
  14. Newspaper reports suggest he was on £10m to £12m a year, 7 months into a 5 year contract. He’s got enough money to wait it out until the summer or even later and see what his options are. I don’t think Chelsea will damage his reputation too much, he’s done a bit of a shit job there but I get the feeling it’s a bit of a basket case of a club and their transfer strategy has been somewhat illogical. Getting a PL job or even a top side abroad shouldn’t be a problem for him.
  15. Yep, just looking at this. We’ll get some reasonably close games like Reading, Bristol City, Millwall and QPR (love Loftus Road). But yeah, really a lot of games that are a good old chew away.
  16. Despite our insipid performance I’m still furious about the West Ham goal being given. It’s probably the correct decision according to the laws, but it’s an utterly stupid law. When the ball has been played in it was aimed towards at least 4 of their players, 3 who were blatantly offside and all made movements towards the ball as it came In. You simply can’t convince me that the presence of those offside players makes zero difference to the positioning and actions of the defenders and keeper. They’re interfering with play as far as I’m concerned. Dopey law. Ah well, season over now, we’re done. Just need to get to 30 points somehow so it doesn’t look completely embarrassing.
  17. Little and little up front then I guess. Reckon tall Paul will get the nod soon enough.
  18. Blimey, Elmo did something useful.
  19. Fuck off with that. Onside my arse. Fucking joke.
  20. West Ham fans getting on the teams back already, good to see.
  21. I’d love to know what really went on with Caceres. Yes, he’d been injured before he got to us but after leaving us he went on to play another 100+ games in Italy. Just bizarre. There’s a story there I’m sure. Jack Stephens though, fuck me.
  22. Sergei Gostsmanov didn’t quite live up to his high billing.
  23. I’d disagree, I think mad Nate was very efficient in dragging ourselves right to the bottom. TBF Selles is doing his best but the damage was done in the lunacy appointment of Jones and his disastrous tenure over games that we simply had to take more from. An absolute shambles really.
  24. I tend to agree. A win tomorrow makes things look actually possible, if still unlikely. A draw isn’t game over but it doesn’t leave any wiggle room at all. I still think we’ll come up way short by seasons end, and I’m expecting us to get done tomorrow anyway. Get a win tomorrow though and and these fuckers will get me starting to believe again Ffs.
