You disagree that I can see our board using the ban to extend the 30+ contracts? I am all for us selling Willian and Pedro but I still think we need to bring in another LW OR RW even with Pully coming in. Unfortunately we really don't know how Pully will get on in the PL. He isn't the strongest built lad out there. But we forever live in hope as he does show promise. Ive said before I am all for giving CHO more playing time but we shouldn't be playing him just because he is CHO. Even if wee sell Willian/Pedro Eden might leave and we should be putting that money into filling his boots. So that will mean we need 2 LW/RW ers So he will still be backup any way you look at it so he will still be unhappy and impatient.

Oh yeah Alonso is full of technique! And great passer!

Makes my stomach curl too. Maybe its a outbreak of couldntgiveafuckitis?

No what we need is an attacking FB that can actually attack, get a cross in now and then, and not let a turtle make him look slow. Telles would be perfect. Our old Filipe Luis would have been good to I reckon. (Who Barca is apparently after as backup at 33)

Really still not feeling RLC bud/ Not showing hes doing enough. Has everything he should need but still doesnt seem to know how or when to use them. I'd still try Willian up there or Pedro.

SLIGHT Hamstring prob. Also zappa has a fever and Pedro a bad stomach ache!

Lets hope he makes a good backup

You might have noticed just how much I really dislike the 2 north London lot!

So we will put right all the wrongs on the pitch in one window? I'm a pretty confident person but I also take into account recent history and previous actions These tend to knock the fuck out of my confidence in them. Ive been talking about organizing my travels this year so that I miss the closed season. I hate transfer windows at the best of times but this ones going to be very important if we manage to get a stay.

Even without the ban what difference would it really make? They need to be productive. If not then whats the point.

The ban isn't our biggest problem tho - it's our board!

I am a firm believer in positive thoughts mate. The more positive you are, the more you THINK you are, the more you become it. If you think gloomy, you worry about what has not happened when you think about all the bad things in your life etc etc it gets your brain into thinking in ome way. All to do with neuron connectors and burned meural pathways The more positive you are the more that gets rid of cortisol, so the more it creates serotonin/ dopamine thus making you happier. But as for being able to think something and be able to attract them then religion has been trying that in the form of prayer for thousands of years unsuccessfully. But look what your brain can do. Let you go thru medical operations without pain killers or anesthesia.

Give them all a fuck off big line of marching powder before they go out so they start like they WANT to win. Ive bot seen us start good in ages. We always tend to be better in the 2nd half. Maybe we should have a 45 minute game against the yoofs or ladies team and come straight onto the pitch from it.

They didn't have a good reason to drop the year contracts until this. So they can now do it without showing big signs of backing down I'm still a believer in the 1 year renewables to a large extent. It SHOULD give the plasyers incentive for keeping on his toes to fight for his spot. And I do think that IF the player himself was confident enough in himself and his skills then he shouldn't be worried he would ne asked to sign another year. But at the same time there may come a time when we want a 30+ to stay 3 years as it would give him and maybe the team confidence and settle them. Its a hard one. I think they should give contracts on merit. If someones good whatever their age they get what they deserve. Wish we could pay them like that too.

Should be ashamed for booing him when he is coming on as a sub mate. Totally different if he fucks up during the game. How the fuck is booing him when he is coming on as a sub going to help him or us win sod all?

Goes without saying mate.One law for some one for others. I just imagine the FA general meetings showing Shitty and Victimpool vids and having a wankfest watching them.

What we should be doing is like me buddy Mz @Vesper suggests and use Ballak as our DOF. Was just saying in a diff thread that how important it is having a board and manager that get together and all work for the same thing. But it also helps to have a DOF with a footballing background. Like Txiki at Shitty. We have some busibess woman who loses us money that knows less than me about football trying to prove shes got a bigger pair of bollox than the men she goes up against. It needs to change.

Thats what the results you get look like when you have a board and manager that work together and all want the same thing. It also helps to have an experienced DOF of course who knows a bit about football like Txiki.

Its OK Mate nobody cared enough to do it this window neither.

ACM. Willian presses high at times. Pedro is like a butchers dog. Both give us more in the way of offence than Barkley/RLC/Kova

Not sure mate if we have the right mentality at all levels to do that. But I know I had a great time when we was in the 2nd Div. Didn't take away any of the fans (THEN) support. Different times tho. We have become spoiled. Victims of our own success. Supporters thinking that the home cups are meaningless. All just makes me laugh.

I'd rather stick Willian or Pedro there mate.

Of course its time we had a good look at our academy teams. Its time to decide just what the best way to run it is to benefit the club not more so the 1st team. The way we have been running it so far has not helped them very much at all. The loan system hasn't produced too many bright sparks and us cherry picking the odd one now and then from all the lads theres been really doesn't seem worthwhile. Do we run the academy for the sake of the kids in it Or to aid the 1st team?

Shirley shum mishtake!

MAYBE Barkleys remembering how to do it. Have to say it was a crackin goal last night. Keeper didn't stand a chance.
