Yep. The old 'chuck a grenade and run' tactic.

Every fucking penny!

The very thought of a back three with Cap'n Shoehorn in the middle of it 🤮

Obviously didn't get the memo before turning out at CB for Westminster Wanderers then.

I said at the time that his position became untenable the moment we were kicked out of the playoffs, as did many others on here. Then Dragan did his customary summer interview with Blackmore and told everyone what we wanted to hear - how everything is fine and there's no need to panic, and the club were standing by Tonda and had all bases covered. This seemingly created a sort of cautious optimism among many that it all might work out OK. We wanted to believe it, because let's be honest - none of us wanted him sacked, given what he achieved with the unbeaten run. After that, the posts pointing out that he should have walked dropped off significantly, and when the anticipated squad exodus didn't happen I think we mostly assumed that if the players were on board with sticking with him then maybe everything was gonna be OK. And as has been pointed out many times already, if the FA really thought it was that serious then why, given that we've been apparently totally cooperative, did they take so fucking long to convene a hearing? But it all now seems to be pointing towards yet another classic example of SR making everyone think they've got it all in hand, when the reality is they've just been asleep at the wheel - yet again. The total radio silence since the hearing last week is ringing serious alarm bells - and when SR go quiet on something, as they've proven time and time again, it never ends well. I see stormy waters ahead.

City fan I know (lifelong one from back when they were shit) desperately wants this to happen so he can go back to supporting a 'proper' club again.

Triple lock to be 'adjusted' from 2030 to pay for a national care service.

BBC news even wheeled out Joe Hart this morning to tell everyone what a wonderful, generous guy the City chairman is and that he's absolutely, definitely not corrupt at all; honest guv, cross my heart and all that. It was fucking sickening.

So is this how we're gonna solve the immigration problem now? With biscuits? Maybe this should go on the asylum claim form. Ask for the applicant's top 3 biscuits and if none of the choices are good old British favourites... application rejected.

The way I see it, there are two possibilities here. One is that the hearing on Thursday was just to ascertain guilt of the charges and that a separate hearing will be convened in order to decide the punishment (much as would be the case in a criminal trial). However, I would assume that the verdict would have been announced immediately in that instance (certainly if he was found not guilty it would have been), which leads me to lean more towards the other possibility - that the sanction was already dished out at the hearing and we/Tonda launched an immediate appeal against it. And if that's the case then it can't be good news, because it suggests to me that the sanction involves a lengthy ban rather than a slap on the wrist and a fine.

If only we could have played that positively against Argentina in the semi final.

Good game this.

Since that shocking start, I think this has actually been a decent performance from England. And that's a fucking peach of a goal!

Dear oh dear Guehi 🤦
