SNSUN

Key takeaways No more 3 CBs. No more AA at CF. We hope Welington is OK. We cannot rely on JRob all season. We need to sign some players. We aren't anything special in this League. Defeat while window is open has silver linings. Probably sums it up. Too soon to panic, but while the window is still open we need to get shit done. Shit. Done.

Season over. Still out. Sell everything and everyone not nailed down. SR out. Have i covered it? Seriously I nearly went today with the family and I'm quite glad I didn't and got a bit drunk instead. This shows the work that needs to be done while the window is open.

I'll take a draw...

Remember Wrexham

Been drinking. So how are we... never mind.

I'm not even watching it but even i can see the ref is a wanker.

I appreciate Still decided to play 3 CBs because we were overloaded there... but with first Edwards dropped then Quarshie, surely that is no longer needed. Thankfully our bench is strong.

Might have to think twice about selling Chaz Taylor if it's long term.

That's ok, we start slowly but there's usually a big finish. That's what she said.

Wood over Quarshie. Otherwise as expected. Bench looks good but we still lack creativity.

Fatawu playing himself into a deadline day signing for Leicester!

Ah, probably a bit late to tag NSFW for anyone who hadn't heard of him. Or his ex.

Dibling another Academy success story who has gone on to bigger things, like Bale, Walcott, Ox-C, Lallana, Danny Mountain...

The table means nothing this early in the season. Unless we top it at the end of the weekend, in which case I'll be placing a picture of it next to the bathroom toilet.

Happy with this. Yes we lose a prospect but with PSR this sale makes a lot of sense. It might help us get what we want for Mat now. Good luck to Tyler, Everton aren't the club I'd have personally picked but with Palace rumoured to have been sniffing around it might have forced Everton's hand a bit. Anyway we have JRob so we march on.

We get Azaz, they get BBD. It's win/wi....oh wait.

We're linked with former Thai Leicester midfielder ThanaWAT SuengcHITthawon. Just to get someone with Twat and Shit in their name.

Ha Saints.... we saw other clubs dismantling Brentford - Mbuemo, Wissa, Norgaard, Flekken- and felt like we'd have a pop too! Welcome Mads. And yes... huge surprise done on the quiet and a solid player.

Willing to do business with Krasnodar ever again…. Nope.

If Villa lose Ramsey and Rogers, they could struggle unless they bring the right players come in. Only so long you can rely on Watkins, McGinn and Mings.

I'm surprised the club is trying to get anything at all for this disaster. Mutually agree to cancel the contract and he can swan off to whatever unfortunate club he likes.

Fernandes, Dibling and Aribo will be shipped out for around £90 million, we will bring in a couple of loans and a free transfer and everyone in the board room smoke fat Cubans and high fives each other for a job well done. We get promoted via the play-offs using the players we have, SR cheap out on signing good players again in the Prem, and we end up back here again, selling Jay Robinson and whoever else makes us a fat profit. We know the script. Roll on September 2nd. Oh and yeah, I got up on the wrong side of the bed. Bitches.

Edozie will be chomping at the bit to join Brugge after this.

And he'll be borderline unemployable. Back to League One if he's lucky.

Ah Stoke, famous for, erm, Pot. And being close to Alton Towers, where incidentally I shall be spending the next few days with my daughter for my sins, so I'll probably be able to smell them. Or they'll be able to smell me, one or the other. Stoke City were formed a long amount of years ago, and previously played at the Victoria Ground, a ground that was so old the fans had to hold pieces of it together during games. Nick Hancock, Stoke's most famous son, once presented a footballing nightmares video outside the ground, which I had on VHS and watched incessantly, mainly because he had a funny voice. Seriously, watch Mr Bean and you'll understand. Or They Think It's All Over. They now play at the bet365, which is similar in size to St Mary's but not as good, and which was formerly named the Brittannia, which is ironic because Stoke rarely Ruled it. Other famous sons of Stoke include Tony Pulis (local sales of caps plummeted when he was in charge), Bruno Brookes and some local bloke called Stanley Matthew, who, in 1848 was known to move from side to side a lot in the local public house. The road their ground is on is named after this chap, Stanley Matthew Sway. Incidentally the sunny, Saturday afternoon in Southampton counter balances their cold rainy Tuesday night in Stoke mantra, as they'll discover this weekend. Hopefully. My mate Jonno went to Stoke on a rainy Tuesday night and said the girls were all high as kites and scary, but that didn't deter him from getting stink finger in the bogs with one of them. He gets about does Jonno and he loves the stink finger. TLDR summery: Potheads, Alton Towers, Nick Hancock, Local swaying bloke and scary/high lasses. Thats my completely unresearched, unverified and probably fake Stoke facts done for the week. On to the never reliable prediction wheel. One right prediction so far, and two wrong. Screen_Recording_20250819_102518_Samsung Internet.mp4 So there you are, Stoke two goal victory and much work to be done in the transfer market.
