The Denmark manager (or a medic on the scene, I forget which) mentioned Heart. He said there was a pulse, then no pulse, heart issue, cpr.

Yep they had the ability to show or not to show it. The lad looked touch and go, and to show that plus his missus and the other players in understandable distress was gratuitous and insensitive. Poor effort from the BBC and Linekers apology very half arsed.

Ryan has had a tough time. Injury, slid down the leagues, ended up being loaned to Havant and Waterlooville a while back, a close family member then became very unwell. I was told by one of the management team that he still had something but it was just one thing after another and it just wasn't going to happen. Shame, he looked really promising.

That was him. I think work permit or similar was the issue. Good player.

Agreed. We have attacking quality from the middle when Armstrong plays there, but we lose him from further up the pitch. Diallo started well, but I thought he was poor for a long while and looked weak.

Great for the lad, but releasing him was bizarre. I saw him many times and he would have made it here given a chance.

So go with less people. You've been complaining that the rules stop you from seeing you from seeing your mum, but the rules allow it.

Level

Yep. I thought he did it last season when we were safe to give them both "trials" and/or be in the shop window. That made sense. Doing it next season is just nuts. Decent managers know their best players and play them.

I bet if you dig deeper, they'll be stopping and searching people in the areas where more crimes are committed too. Postcode discrimination.

To be fair I haven't seem him at all this season, but saying he wasn't committed when he played for us is justified. I have never seen a more abject performance than his in that semi final. If Ralph can get him playing to his abilities, we'll have a great player, but I suspect he's burned his bridges and I can't see how he could force his way into our starting eleven.

Eel

Strange one for me. We have McCarthy and Forster running down contracts so we either get another in now and still have 3 plus Lewis, or we let their contracts run down then look for 2 next year. There's always the possibility we'd extend one of them and get another, but that'd be nuts. There may be another scenario, but it feels a bit odd.

I've called you none of those things mate. Stop whining and accept that if you give, you'll get back.

I'm not here to adjudicate on what's allowed mate, that's for the mods, but you've been abusing people by calling them a gammon. You get a dig back from Duckie and then sulk. If you don't want a slap back, don't slap others.

Wanna stop throwing around the childish Gammon insults mate? Reap/sow etc.

People like Antrim still won't get it though Hypo. They either believe or have been led to believe that the knee being used in football is a nice little gesture, and that only racists cannot get behind it. Every statement or comment from football managers or players supporting that position is widening the divide. I'm not sure where we go from here, but the cycle has to stop and the solution is so simple.

Tsimikas at Liverpool is an interesting one for me. Always going to be an understudy to Robertson, but too good to rarely play. I suspect its him or Neco Williams we wanted when we ended up with Minamino. No rumours, but we appear to have a good relationship with Liverpool and him on loan wouldn't surprise me.

Behave. He's not been written off, just the point being made that he's short ish for a defender.

By a long distance. I don't see what N'lundulu offers other than size. His 1st touch is awful, and he's quite a bit older than Obafemi.

Time

Yep. There's a player in there. Pace, reasonable touch, good on the turn, strong, can finish. He needs a run of games somewhere and could do very well.
