Always hard to tell from pre-season. Didn't Aribo score a cracking goal in pre-season last year? Look how he turned out. Some of our players are known entities, we know they will be good enough (Alcaraz) or will still be prone to being fairly regularly shite (Lyanco).

Leeds bigger than us, Burnley and Sheff Utd. Burnley and Sheff Utd in the league above... what a couple that would be if they're interested.

Mugs getting twisted over a kit. What next? People getting pissed off at a marching band playing OWTS? Traditional?

Lord knows why people are dying for a 'simple' striped red and white. Surely we all know our kits over time haven't always been the 'simple red and white stripes'? Be fucking boring if it were red and white stripes every year. Really like this year's home kit design. Plus, it does have red and white stripes! It is 'traditional' in the sense that our kits have traditionally been quite diverse! We're essentially just reliving some retro kits with the last two years' home kits. I'm certainly not complaining! Reckon this home kit will sell well. I'll certainly buy one.

This is the issue, isn't it? The perpetual search for the next Thomas Frank. Rasmus won't stop until he finds him. All the while St Mary's burns around him...

Oh really? Interesting he's off after his best season for them.

But Arsenal have Xhaka and Partey, right?

How did Inter not score there!?!? 🤪

I don't think our bunch of losers know what a winning habit is!

He'll stay with us. If we don't get promoted on the first attempt, I'd imagine he'd then agitate to leave.

Apologies, didn't realise he was so young! Absolutely right, let's give him some more time on loan.

Hangers on like Nlundulu, Small and Vokins need to be offloaded. I'd like to keep Adams and Armstrong, but offload Onuachu. I'd not be fussed if all of them left, really. Saddened by James leaving, but as with Lavia and a few others, it was bleeding obvious they would if we dropped.

Clive Woodward been on the phone recommending him, maybe?

It's what we'd do I reckon.

Let's go one better, for all of those creaming themselves over ex-PL 'experienced' managers... https://youtu.be/o3YY7PY-IH0

Brighton not renowned for its passionate football fans.

Least he could fucking preach on about being from a small Welsh mining village to those that might give a slight fuck.

It's only fair for them not to worry about league positions, isn't it? After all, we were lucky to be in the Premier League and are lucky to be in the Championship, too. For a club of our size, participation in both leagues is a modern-day miracle.

Coventry about as big a side as us, Brentford and Biurnmeouth far smaller. Not too mental, then!

Stature? There's a shit load of clubs in the Championship and below with similar size stadiums and more trophies than us.

Mad that you can relegate a club and still move on and get a decent wedge elsewhere. Would it happen in other jobs?

Che saying that is lovely and all, but I'm sure he'll pack his bags as soon as Everton or suchlike come calling. Perhaps one of the players care, at least.

Wasn't the last time one of the 9-0s? Fuck me we fans have been beaten the shit out of by our club the last few years. Absolutely rotten from top to bottom. All starts at the board level. Semmens will come out with some shit about how 'we did well to stay in the Premier League for so long, for a club of our size it was always an almost impossible task'.
