  1. Strange thing is I started watching the Everton game myself on a split screen as I was fed up with ours. Who knows if he did the same or perhaps he might have been at a place showing all the games. Who cares!
  2. That free kick when he palms it back towards a striker, I don’t get it as it’s coming at his body so you either catch it or push it to the side. Bloody awful performance yesterday and for most of all his seasons with us.
  3. Spoke to an Everton fan last night who watched our game. Said that was one of Holgates better games!! Ha ha so we have his worse to come 😕
  4. Second worse goals against in all 4 divisions. Always believed you build from the back. Honestly today was shambolic and even against QPR we had warnings that the manager can’t set us up to defend. Problem is we can’t fix it as Russel Martin don’t have a clue plus we dont have the players to sort it either.
  5. Hoping we parade our new striker Ross Stewart to the away fans before kick off. Going to be a special player when he gets over his injury.
  6. I personally rate it as a bloody good window. Latvia’s transfer alone almost paid for all those coming in. Yes we have some bloated squad players they couldn’t shift but I can see us winning many games and let’s be honest it should be by 3 clear goals. Get some of those bloated players coming off the bench to raise their transfer value for January. Got some cracking players coming in that know this league very well plus we have what could be a real goal scorer when Ross is ready. Also I have a feeling the captain for today will be Downes as he looks like a more natural leader that our Jack.
  7. Heard that were in for a Brighton squad player now Fati has signed. No idea of the name or if it’s happening now especially that it seems that some players are now staying because the value set was not offered.
  8. This is my last post as my 3 is up. I said last week that Mara and Adams are planning to be leaving if we had suitable offers. In fact it looks like it was us that were offering them to clubs in the end because they don’t want anyone at the club that don’t want to be there anymore. Everyone has a price on their heads and many actually reached the target they wanted. 6 out from now and 4 in as I repeated last weekend. I have a great source That makes it 21 players out in total which I was told in May. PS and yes Wilcox is a genius if he pulls it off as it looks like we have a better team to challenge for the title plus maintain it in the EPL next season.
  9. Flew from Edinburgh to Southampton this morning. Never saw a caramel bar?!?
  10. And there’s more! Need to raise some capitals to get the best one.
  11. I’ve noticed that the ITK gossipers have stopped now as the cleaners are not allowed in the boardroom and the black box one during meetings Reckon it’s going to be very explosive on the markets for us soon. Going for a 9/10 come Saturday and that Wilcox & co will have done a great job for us.
  12. My personal prediction 6 out and 4 in. Is Holgate Woods replacement as we won’t budge on 2m? Versatile FB/CB Aberdeen player Striker who’s available from the premiership Norwegian midfielder.
  13. A trip to the Titanic museum would help. Hope he don’t think our club is heading the same way.
  14. In the premiership we did for sure, That VVD threw his toys out but we got top dollar in the end so it was a win win for us. Now we are a championship team it’s much harder. Smallbone turned down an offer of 3 times his wages to stay with us BUT the club who put these terms through to his agent never made a good enough offer for the club to accept. Would things be different if Sheff Utd offered us 22m for him?!?
  15. If you stop allowing players to leave and they start to hand in transfer requests etc then it’s going to make a new player think twice about joining us. We attract loads of great young talent to this club because we sell them on at a profit. It opens the door to attract even more.
  16. Well written piece and I totally agree. My only concern is when reaching the premiership I don’t want to rebuild the team again. When we got promoted last time we had a settled squad of players who knew each others game really well. I think we finished 10th that season with some fine team performances.
  17. I’ve been absolute spot on with everything I’ve said since May. Looking forward to our new striker if the club can shift Mara. Fucking Mara who’s shit! Adams is a gonna as he won’t sign a contract.
  18. Tella was in tears when we shipped him out. Some of the ladies in the kit team had to confront him. So yes he owe us nothing and deep down he’s making a good career move. BTW Alcarez was the player that had changed his mind about leaving. Hoping that seeing all these guys leaving doesn’t sway him to think again?
  19. Saints playing a risky game allowing our better players to leave now clubs are closely matching the prices we set. I personally expect Tella, Adams to leave and surprisingly Smallbone if someone comes back with an improved offer. Still say 21 players out which means many loan deals to slash the wage bill. PS Piroe, what a fuck up because Everton messed us about with Adams as he had to be sold first before replacing. No idea who’s gonna come in but strikers win games and get teams promoted.
  20. A Newcastle player on loan. Ha ha said it last week.
  21. I expect plenty of scouts were at this game as it probably was an opportunity to get them in the shop window.
  22. It’s looking very likely that we are selling high earning players and replacing with much cheaper options. Nothing special players coming in but if they graft and gel together as a unit like Luton did last season then hopefully we will have a team pushing for promotion. My prediction: 220m IN, 60m OUT
  23. I want a striker that we can take into the premiership who can start banging in the goals. Example - Toney Would be amazing to get in Mcafee, replace that Genk winger for Tella if a suitable big comes in. That leaves us with wanting a demanding CB and that Bristol City one looks quality.
  24. Wilcox probably sat through all the matches from January onwards and thought this Adams bloke has got to go. Slap 15m on his head as he’s on a one year contract. Turning out that he’s good in the championship but your options are limited because he wont sign a new contract. Just make sure the striker coming in is proven and will hit the ground running otherwise you may of pissed this seasons promotion opportunity away.
  25. Guys if you’re not interested in watching it then don’t bothered. I’ve represented my country at the highest level in sport. The pride in wearing your team colours to a national anthem is something special. Come on Lioness do us proud!
