You have got to be kidding me.

Correct. Nobody is entitled to any specific job, it’s earned by meeting the requirements specified in the description. That can be qualifications, experience and/or something else. Personally, I’d treat anti-vaxxers but I’d ‘defer’ their treatment until after all other outpatient care is caught up with and staff have had a break. If that takes six months, we’ll that’s a shame, isn’t it.

Seriously? We signed Jos Hooiveld, not Robinho. When we took the squad Adkins got promoted, added Ramirez, Yoshida, Davis, Jay Rod, Wanyama, Lovren, Boruc, Shaw, Clyne and gave it to the current manager of PSG, it finished 8th. This is not like that time Juventus got relegated to Serie C

Correct. It makes me wonder how thick Man City’s owners are, wasting all that money on Pep Guardiola. Don’t they realise with all their resources they should just win the league anyway, regardless of who’s in charge.

O and R1 together. X to raise a clenched fist.

Sometimes it’s just the right man, for the right job, at the right time. Clearly we recruited very well, bringing in the right man, who did everything we could reasonably have asked of him. I have no time for people who demand that he should have won League 1 and the Championship. George Burley showed that you can’t just throw money at a squad and expect results and Nigel beat two much better financed teams in West Ham and Leicester. If you want to talk about the money spent then fine, we should have beat Reading and finished third behind those two.

Surely not?!

Because the vast majority of people use shops whereas only 2,000 are packed into the Guildhall.

Because he was 33 and we needed to balance the games with everyone else and rotate the squad.

Because I believe it’s our strongest possible team, regardless of who played well against an awful Leeds team.

Back to back ‘winnable’ home games. Another win would really move us away from the relegation fight and towards the comfort of mid-table obscurity. I’d probably bring the Armstrongs in for Moi and Redmond.

Villa. 🤣

You’re right, we should all be miserable. F**king Ralph!! He should have demanded Leeds signed some better players on a free last night.

Finally! Well done boys.

Very bizarre story this, Man Utd are flying to their game at Leicester, presumably to East Midlands airport which is northwest of Leicester anyway. Apparently it’s to avoid potential traffic on the M6. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58938198

Had a dream last night that we lost 8-0 and I was genuinely p*ssed off that we couldn’t even do a 0-9 properly any more. Then again we were playing Ipswich away, so it may not have been an accurate premonition.

I think he was talking about a poster.

Actually it’s not an offshoot, although it was removed from the main board fairly promptly. I didn’t lock it because TBH I consider this place to be a fascinating social experiment. Compared to a ‘Merry Xmas’ thread which descended into the God squad and the atheists arguing about whether ducks rape each other, this is relatively benign.

It's so sad seeing the pair of them carrying on like that. If anything Lambert is worse, his rantings seem somewhat unhinged and shouty. Honestly, if I find out Marian Pahars is an anti-vaxxer I'm going to go and support Swindon or something.

I never know what to say to this kind of thing, other than wishing you my sincerest best wishes. That probably sounds a little hollow from a stranger on the internet but I doubt there’s a person out there who can’t relate to your situation in some context. Keep fighting!

Previous campaigns have achieved all you can reasonably expect from a slogan or gesture. If you genuinely want to help, go and volunteer at your local youth group, keep kids off the street and out of gangs.

The problem with that is that the high hanging fruit is basically what’s left. Instead of trying to reach that we’ve got people picking the rotten stuff off the floor and making a sh*tty crumble with it.

Who is not as good as 28 year old Ronaldo and is very much a freak of nature and exception to the rule.
