Sad that an inevitable decision took so long, but better late than never. Hopefully the Democrats get their act together and either throw their support behind Harris or nominate another sharpish. The Trump campaign seems to have all sorts of momentum.

To receive opinions then discuss?

Happy

Bournemouth and their fans didn't think so. He deserves his extension.

Nope, but hopefully it's a necessary growth spurt. On the subject of the thread, he was a pointless signing.

Good business. Experienced, decent enough, knows the league, and will be handy next season should the inevitable happen.

In our one paced team, and for Scotland. Sensible to want to see how he gets on playing their way.

I think every PL team does. Back to Stu, hopefully he gets a good move. Was a decent servant.

Agreed. If we can't pay proper money for a proper striker, we need to go all out on a big loan and suck up the wages and loan fee. Whatever else we do to strengthen our team is a waste of time if we ain't investing in goals.

The lower budget (in real terms) strikers have all been an absolute disaster. We've bought cheap ISH a few times and it's bitten us. You get what you pay for. We need quality.

I didn't say we were. I said that's probably the budget we need.

Yep. £20m negotiated about 5 years ago is probably £35-40m today in football inflation terms, and probably the budget we need to get a proper striker capable of giving us a fighting chance of staying up.

Is this what took the banking chaps system down yesterday? Carnage yesterday from that, now this. Good luck to anyone hoping to complete a property purchase today.

He'll be gone before Monday. COVID as the reason, can't commit to the campaign as needed despite being the man for the job, or similar I'd imagine. Too late though imo, the Trump bandwagon ain't stopping now unfortunately.

Beach

Police and fire service decided to turn up an hour after the bus was burned. In the meantime, people tried to put the fire out with buckets of water. Should have rolled up sharpish with water cannons and killed two birds with one stones.

Yep, they deserve a decent stretch, but that's a bit strong. The ring leader properly irritated the judge and I suspect they all got of the backlash.

That's a tough question. I'd take Nketiah, just.

We were after him a few years back, he went to Leeds instead I think. Good player, plays off the last man, brings others into play, can carry the ball, finishes well. Very decent business if we get him.

But they're the next group of players to leave before they turn pro. Chelsea and Brighton will be gutted that he's moving on.

Yep. Very odd that he was in that area, and why he couldn't stay til the morning, but as you say, we'll never know the truth.

Yep. Last minute loan deal for someone who can't get a kick in the championship, or from a bottom half french team is my guess. Needs addressing, and in fairness to the club, they've done better so far than I thought so you never know.
