Tosh.

This is nonsense. I think we can take it for granted that he isn't updating his social media during training sessions so what the heck does it have to do with his fitness?

The lads and lasses are singing the Ossie song. Love to hear it.

Rom is right to have said what he said and to have worded it strongly. I only wish he had worded it more strongly. Racists won't be cured by hastags or social media commentary. They think what they think but society needs to impose penalties when they air those views in situations where they shouldn't. It's just a personal opinion but, in an academic, or debate, situation people should be allowed to spew their vile opinions if they wish but a football ground is private property. There are terms and conditions which must be adhered to if we want to gain entry. Serious consequences should always follow for anyone who who breaches those Ts&Cs..

Are you ruling out the possibility that all complaints are valid, i.e. none of our strikers quite fits the bill?

There is also another aspect. They are bolstering their future negotiating position. When they they come to this point with Bellingham or Adyemi (assuming they will be signing him next year) potential buyers will know they mean to stick to their guns.

So the golden boy is a girl. Life eh?

Everyone in the Bundesliga seems too accepting of Bayern's de facto monopoly.

Yes, I've always liked Mando but I'd like to have Ademyi too.

Good fixture for Eden's second debut. 🙂

Brilliant strategy by Dortmund to establish themselves as a preferred destination for up and coming talent. It gives them a competitive team and a highly profitable transfer operation. Yet again they get a young player many would have loved to see at Chelsea.

Highlights of the girls' triumph yesterday. Sadly for me I wasn't able to be there due to long standing Family arrangements.

👏 Jason Cundy especially annoyed me when he was talking about us being the best team in the world after the Juve game. He wasn't the only media figure spouting such nonsense but he is much closer to the team, watches them more than almost everybody else and should know better. Scratch that. He must know better. Indeed, listen to what he had to say after the Watford escape and it's clear that he does know better.

I think I've done it again. 'It' being quoting a comment which had itself been quoted within a different post. Sorry.

Glad to help old son. Now we need our transfer decision makers to accept, internalise, and act upon the fact that footballers are wedded to their basic talent level. Once the decision makers have done that they should be well placed to deal with bizarre reports from Latin countries that XYZ player has been doing afterschool lessons with Antonio Conte and has magically improved the things that no footballer is actually able to improve. In short they will realise that people who claim a lad who had the touch of a lamppost now has silky ball control is either lying to themselves or is lying to everyone else.

🙂 Nothing dependent about MB. Could and inevitable can't be used as qualifiers for each other. If I say that something could happen everyone knows what I mean. If I say that something will inevitably happen everyone knows what I mean. If I say something could inevitably happen no one can have a clue.

Just like Rom they were all the same player here as they had been elsewhere.

'Could' and 'inevitably' don't really belong together. 🙂

Hasn't happened in the last ten days. There are excuses. Maybe. Actions > words. We'll see soon enough. Wednesday probably.

Yes, he just miss spoke. We all do that but it gave TT a chance to have a laugh at his own expense and demonstrate (again) how comfortable he is with the press. As for Ralf using 'year' and 'season' interchangeably, we all do that too. 🙂

And there was the fact that the club tried to replace TT after the 0-0 with Wolves. His first game! 😆

A-bleedin-men to this.

City also beat us rather easily to be fair. If this season's Man City is the barometer then it's level pegging between us and The Hammers.

Are we calling Bowles a nine? More like a ten wasn't he? Around then I'm thinking it may have been Paul Marriner or Bob Latchford although perhaps they may have been a bit later. Kegan and Brooking would have been in the team in 1980 because they were still in it two years later in Spain. That means it would usually have been Keegan plus one up top I think. What about Tony Woodcock maybe or was Joe Royle still around then? And what was the name of the Villa centre-forward at that time,? (The lad with the beard.)

I honestly don't even remember Tommy ever playing for England.
