disconnect

Why? I dont think he's going to get a bad reception, but is there something I've missed here?

Prediction - Downes will be reintegrated before the end of the season and issue an apology. His name will be announced at St Marys to a chorus of boos, he'll then get pissed off and concede a stupid yellow early on with a leading elbow, then proceed to do something else stupid early in the second half to get himself sent off. Much like Martin's other favourite, Captain Jack.

Any idea of the team sheets?

Hate to break it to you, but Adams joined Torino permanently on a free transfer. Never fear though, Victor Udoh is here!

Is this Bednarek or Wood? Thought Wood was awful on Sunday (with Bedders not much better), always looks panicked and can't seem to run properly?!

So we’re therefore not paying him due to breach of contract?

At least he stays fit and can last a full match, which is much more than most of our midfield!

A weakened(?) under 21 side (mostly the under 18s?) beat Maidenhead 6-0 tonight in the National League cup. Interestingly Victor Udoh played the first hour.

Was it the club or was it Martin?

Looking forward to seeing him in action! Fingers crossed he settles nicely and is good for us over the next few years.

Have heard a deal sheet went in from Russell Martin for Jack Stephens at wherever he next manages in the next 24 months. Currently looking uncertain if it’ll go through this window.

Very conflicting reports here. The quote was that he "had a problem in the week" and when challenged if he was injured, Juric shot down the question. So yes, he is a sick note, but that might not be the reason he was out.

Praying for the day Stephens goes home to Plymouth!

Interesting move. We totally wasted him, one of the very few players to come out of the back end of our last premier league season with any credit, and of course Martin hated his direct style and unpredictability. I guess we wouldnt have bought Fernandes if he was still here, but a midfield with both of them would've offered a lot more goal threat.

So long as he stops being an idiot and getting sent off all the time…

100% this. Archer is much better, but needs games!

I'm guessing this is Rento Takaoka? Think he's joining when he turns 18 in March.

LOL at Wilfred "Ego" Zaha going to Galatasaray and being very average, then being loaned to Lyon and only starting 1 game in half a season, and now at the mighty Charlotte FC...! 🤣 Fees to the Turkish leagues are so bad. No way we'd sell him for 3 million Euros now, and he knows he can do much better come the summer.

The joke has gone too far...!

Looks like a great prospect, and unlike some of the others we've tried to bring through, looks like he'll have the physicality to make the step up to mens football. Didn't we only sign him this summer? Would be surprised if (unless loaned out) he didnt feature the first team squad for us next season.

Totally missed this. Is Taylor off? Thought he was the least of our worries really. Problem was he was a defender who tried to defend first rather than pass it about.

Essentially free tourist trap stadium getting them tonnes of extra revenue every season

Would rather Gronbaek, just as I don’t already know that he’s very average

So Charles wasn’t recalled after all?!

How was that not given at the end? Probably because he thought we'd score and it would upset the "story of the season"
