If it's for security at a footy match it's entirely proper imo. We're not talking about some random grabbing his crown jewels in sainsburys.

Seriously? He should have saved the 3rd, and a better keeper would have kept out the 1st. I'm with you on the 2nd.

What's the issue? You know your nipper wasn't carrying anything he wasn't supposed to, but the stewards didn't. People are searched for a reason and I'm not sure why a 13 year old shouldn't get the same treatment as everyone else.

I'm convinced that you've convinced me. I think.

No. Mccarthy is better imo. How he didn't save the 3rd is beyond me. He made 1 save ffs.

He's not suggesting we drop Adams...he's playing him twice!!

That's what's I would do. Vestergard is too slow, Stephens utter sh1te, so don't play either. I'd rather sit 3 in front of a back 4 which has to include Yoshida.

Thanks. Found it. Wish I hadn't though.

Where's today's game mate? I've signed up and watching through lqt but can't see it anywhere...

It's not wrong though. Many of the people who whinge about the shirt will buy it.

Yes, messaged them earlier and been sent link to sideload onto fire box. Will trial next week and then commit to a year if it's decent. Thanks again ?

Cheers Dazza, I'll give that one a go ?

His reasoning leaves much to be desired - our issue, for me, is not firepower but the creativity to supply the forwards plus our defence and limited midfield options. I think he's failed to highlight our actual weaknesses. That said, I disagree about Brighton strengthening, they've had a cracking window. Maupay imo was the standout striker in the championship last season and offers more than Adams and Pukki who'll both do OK but Maupay is a notch above for me. Mooy is slight in build but he's a proven Premier league player who'll create chances galore for them.

Yep. His latest tweet is the squaker one (the fake) announcing the signing. The 'look at me' idiot tweeted it well after it was known to be a fake.

Thanks for the info. Interesting situation, but as you say, it's kind of sensible.

ANOTHER SUITOR FOR AUSTIN Adding to the news that West Brom are in for Southampton striker Charlie Austin (8.23), Sky Sports News understands Bristol City are also in talks with the Saints to bring him to Ashton Gate.

Yep. We're gonna be competitive and I'm more optimistic about Adams after pre season than I was when we signed him. Djenepo has something about him too and I hope Boufal stays and adds some missing flair. Looking forward to it.

Good business for them. Brighton have had a good summer.

"Boring apologists". Behave. The majority of people have enough sense to want more but be realistic about the mess that Les has left us in.

Good move but I'm intrigued by what happens after the MLS season ends in November (or October if they don't make the play offs). The loan is until 31 December.

Everything wrong about our spoiled/entitled fans right there. Someone challenges your forceful opinion and they're labelled a "complete bell". Classy. You then support you position that we should supplement our 35+ man squad (costing us six figure millions in transfer fees and about the same in wages year on year) with more players. Yeah, that makes perfect sense. Then you argue that we should do that because you're "sure" (no doubt there then) that Gao can afford it. Have a little think about that - how can you be sure that he can afford it, and more to the point, as an owner of a business why should he be expected to put his hand in his pocket to buy the club (not himself) another player? What's in it for him? Will he get his money back? This naive thinking that owners can and should just put money into a club is pathetic. Of course he doesn't have to, but if he were on the fence, the current value of a lot of our recent acquisitions against the cost and wages is hardly gonna convince the fella that chucking cash at a player is a good investment for his money. We have to be run sensibly, and anyone with a modicum of sense can see that means shifting several off the books before we can spend proper money on new players.

What's to say that we didn't look for the defensive equivalent?
