hypochondriac

From memory Blackmore had a fairly close relationship with JWP. It wouldn't surprise me if he is aware of certain things like JWP being keen to return.

Who has alleged bullying ?

We are unlikely in my opinion to spend a load of money on a striker. More likely to find someone from a foreign league we have never heard of. We will be trusting Spors again to pull a rabbit out of a hat.

I assume that restore are aware that some of their policies are quite extreme or at least are perceived as such by much if the electorate. Assuming that what Rupert Lowe says is true and they are a serious party looking to get into power, do they have a strategy for trying to appeal to a wider section of the electorate beyond what they currently have at the moment?

I disagree. The club won't want to pin the goalscoring hopes on to one player. Now that Stewart has gone, a replacement has to be a priority along with the Azaz competition as we have already said.

What figures within the restore movement are the ones that made you a fan?

Not a chance will we get to the end of the window without signing another striker. Solak isn't stupid and he's already proclaimed we will be as strong or stronger than last year.

Very true. I thought Larin was a crap loan and he very much proved me wrong. Like you say, a young kid and still maybe a bit of time to regain some confidence and maybe some form under the wing of a couple of other players. Maybe even a loan will improve him.

I watched froch groves in a stadium and the atmosphere was brilliant even though I was miles away.

Someone like Dibling on loan?

That wasn't my point though.

Yes it does. it may well be that Downs will never be any good and will amount to nothing here- probably a good chance actually- but the idea that confidence does not affect how someone plays, what positions they take up on the pitch, whether they are looking for the ball, how they shoot and attack the ball etc is nonsense. Of course confidence can affect all of those things.

I get what he means. Downs does have a lot of good attributes, he just can't seem to have any affect on games. I don't know whether it's a mentality thing or something like that. Every time he has played he's just completely anonymous.

Any alternative would likely be even worse.

I find debates on the triple lock odd. It's obviously going to be scrapped at some point because it will reach a point where it is utterly unaffordable so at that point it won't even be a choice. The only question is when it will be scrapped

Imagine thinking it was real.

Goal of the tournament so far.

3 million quid well spent.

Woot.

I'd say Spors has a pretty good track record. Certainly superior to anyone else Sports Republic has got in.

Fair comment. I just can't see us signing three strikers in one window and I assume Downs will be off again. We can't enter a season with Larin and no one else.

Peretz Bree Stephens Manning Downes Fellows Matsuki Azaz Larin Is a core of a top championship team. Just need to persuade the likes of Bragg, Scienza, Jander etc to sign on or replace them with quality and we will be up there.

I'm not sure we'd get enough from Archer to make a sale worthwhile. Bringing in three strikers in one window is a bit of a risk.

I wasn't suggesting Archer stays and is the stewart replacement. Clearly we'd need someone else too

Alfie put it on twitter before that post I think.
