Re: another, thants right another embargo for late PAYE payments - a new embargo

If you're going to argue its not 'us' that offends, well its not 'us' that is being punished. Club and owner offends, club and owner punished. 'We' haven't lost points or been fined. Our ability to go to games is unaffected. Looking forward to the EFL announcing that due to non-payment of wages the...

Re: BFTG - Cheltenham

CountryRoyal How can people be changing their tune going from “relegation is a disaster” to “now I think it’s good” based on the back off a 1 nil, ultimately laboured, home win against arguably the worst side in the division, and it was a massive own goal.

You new here?

Re: Where does Carroll rank in worst ever signings?

Yeah, not even close.

I can understand your concern to an extent, but you’ve got to ask yourself what the alternative is - it’s probably “hoof it to Ehibhationham”.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Port Vale (a)

Not much midfield options on the bench. In a 4-4-2 it’s more or less the midfield options I’d expect, a central midfielder in Wing, a wide player in Vickers, and one who can do both in Camara. The lack of a proper forward is more of a concern to me. I guess we can always try to get one of the winge...

Re: another, thants right another embargo for late PAYE payments - a new embargo

Probably best fits here. Selles confirms that we cannot pay a fee in this window or January but club lawyers working on appeal regarding next summer - Cardiff managed to bring their 3 window ban down to 2 so precident there. Met Dai on Monday, Dai assured him it would be sorted within a couple of d...

Re: CONFIRMED - David Button

Always baffled by the "must be better than" crowd. How often has that been said over the last 10 years only to be completely wrong. Struggling to think of any frankly. Maybe Bacuna? Drinkwater? Even Puscas was at least an upgrade on Baldock and McNulty. Most of our big flops were always o...

Re: CONFIRMED - David Button

Reasonably happy with this, good track record back in the day, can hardly be worse than Lumley or Bouzanis. Would personally have given the gloves to Jokull (actually I’d have renewed Southwood but that ship has sailed) but if Selles doesn’t feel comfortable with that then I think Button is probably...

Re: Tyler Bindon confirmed

The interview with him makes it clear that his mum got a job in the area and the family moved with her. In that circumstance, rules around transfer of teenagers across borders wouldn’t apply. I would guess that he has settled status and thus wouldn’t need a work permit. But he’s been training with t...

Re: Summer 2023 Transfer Speculation

Even with Fiorini and Savage, that still leaves us a little light in that area, in terms of natural midfield players anyway. We all know we can't rely on Hutch. Savage, Wing, and Rushesha is perfectly adequate numbers wise if we’re playing with a midfield two. If we signed Fiorini or Weir then we w...

Re: New GK

Got the same agent as Tom McIntyre. Cheap and available. Not sure what to make of him but I suppose you don't spend 6 years at United if you're completely shit unless your name is Phil Jones. McIntyre recently changed representation and is now represented by Jem Karacan and Brian Howard. Are they r...

Re: Injury watch 2023/24

2005/06 team had Shorey, Sidwell and Kitson go down injured at the same time. At one point we had to play Sekou Baradji. Of the first XI, it was only really Marcus, Ivar, Sonko, Harper and Convey who made it through the season unscathed. And two of them picked up career-changing injuries early the n...

Re: “ Sell before we Dai “ supporters action group v2.2

If Dai does not have the money or can not pay , any protest on the pitch is madness . Need to continue to try to get a sale . I suggest a protest outside the Chinese embassy, and through the MP contacts get a meeting with the Chinese ambassador, Chinese do not like to be embarrassed. This way you g...

Re: MATCHWATCH : QPR

Holmes is definitely the smarter of the two, if he wasn't a footballer he'd have no trouble getting a degree (and at one stage he was considering giving up in order to go that way). His dad is a professor of engineering at Imperial, Tom's not on that level by any means but he's bright. McIntyre is a...
