So far. Bet the same was said about Rodgers 10 months in to his reign at Swansea, Liverpool, celtic and Leicester. Longevity is a rarity for managers. Usually they stay on long enough to become the villain.

Offered to interview and offered the job are two very different things.

They can blame covid for their mistakes. Reads better than actually identifying how much money they've burned on vanity projects and keeping up with the Jones. Their wage bill is sky high. Their transfer record is offset by 2 or 3 large sales, but all of that has gone back on players (like it should do) but over paying those players to get them through the door has led them to a dark corner where they can't move out of as they don't have the financial income to do so. Look at the Fofana deal. Sold for £70m but how much of that was profit? Bought him for nearly £40m with a massive sell on fee to his former club. With his and agent signing on fee that's nearly all gone. They paid him top edge so when Chelsea came knocking there was nothing left to offer him to stay. Same with Tielemans.

Or SJP. Saudi Jet Planes

This is what happens when a club lives beyond its means for far too long. They don't generate enough money for a sustained challenge to the establishment, so have to box clever. A couple of bad moves and they don't have the capability to throw money at the problem like manu do every 2 seasons. Leicesters days of top 6 and winning things are all but over. Major downsizing incoming and owners whose hearts are not in it seek to claw back some of the money they've invested.

£16m to pay him off. Ouch. Absolutely trying to talk himself in to being sacked. He's sticking firm, just a fancy Bruce this cunt.

Class above quiet a few of our players (Almiron, Willock, Fraser & Murphy). No excuses not to start him from now on.

Jan will be even harder to sign players. I think we've squandered a massive chance to move forward quickly. We'll have to wait till next summer now to see a real impact. It's blatant the PL are doing their best to clip our wings on and off the pitch, the only way we can fight back is by being so much better than we are now, leaving no doubt of the win. Any fine margin games we're not winning, they'll see to it.

Yesterday highlighted why the window wasn't the success many thought it was.

We have the most expensive car in town, so why should we be arsed? Park where we want imo.

I fucking love Sam Fender. Listening to him now. Got in the pre-sale ticket queue like several 10s of thousands will be doing. He's sell out about 2-3 nights imho. I love how they want to try and rob him of his NUFC ties. I know how much he loves the club, so do they really, but every little (thing to cling on) helps.

Mad how everyone wants to hate on Ando. I reckon the everyone at both clubs thought the Ashby deal was done to only fall apart last minute. Fine margins.

Solid 7.

- I mean, he's a cracking wum

Shite end to the window for us. We clearly need some more depth but more annoying is that we're 2-3 quality players away of making a permanent difference to the club in the league and skip a couple of years development. Such a shame we've not pushed the boat out and got them. We could have easily turned 8-10th into 6th-8th and stayed there whilst mounting a challenge to the top 6 continuously for there.

Next 36 hours nufc's transfer policy reflects me in final day of the Amazon lightening sales. I've got a couple of things watched, there's a few things that have popped up that I don't need, and I've no idea if I'll spend anything or max my card out before the sale ends. What I do know is that I'll waste the entire day watching and reviewing whilst getting nowt done.

A mid trio of Tie Lemons, Joe Linton and Bru No would be ace like.

Was nothing to do with that. He's basically said there's no money at stoke atm. He wanted to move to a bigger club for more money nearer his family.

West brom fans deserve this and deserve him for a while longer. They got what they wanted. They defended him and ignored (even mocked) those with experience of him trying to inform them.

The club will launch legal challenges at some point and will win.

They're not going down. Could bring in half the value of the club in 3 players and then the club is sold this season.

It's not, but he'll have a say and has resisted so far. He stops making a case for them to stay then it changes things.

I could see Rodgers going rouge and allowing Maddison and Tielemans to leave with Fofana, then sit back and say I told you so to the club. He knows he's not there long term. Why should he care who they sell. Looks better on his stats selling them on and recovering money.

Quicker than his work permit.

His wages should be coming out of the refs pocket.
