Aye he's a mackem in Football and politics.

How does VAR protect big clubs?, it only highlights corruption. Every single time a patently incorrect decision was made in the past the go to reason was "its a split second decision from the ref, he's human and will get it wrong sometimes in the heat of the moment". VAR removes that excuse, you get to see the same thing in MOTD replays as the VAR official saw and it becomes very clear that they're cheating. I mean if I had any doubt that there was corruption in matches that's gone now after watching games with VAR, because the decisions they often make after watching several replays just have no other explanation.

Well it should. Because they obviously wrongly believe that our captain is of some use.

One thing about VAR, it really should end any ideas of things like this just being mistakes. Can't argue it was a split second decision. They have time to review it from multiple replays. The bias is undeniable.

Losing our captain and starting CB would do the opposite like, surely will push them on even more to get a CB.

Is there a new PL guideline for refs? Chris Wood getting a chance equals a foul?

Both clubs can ask for whatever they want, I mean yeah he's their player, but if they have any interest in selling him then there are limits to what they can ask for. I'd say a loan back, in our position, is one of those limits.

Anyone else? We need like 1.33 points per game to very likely stay up, thats below mid table form. Well beyond our current, but I mean if we signed some very good players its hardly too much to achieve.

The club under Keegan and Robson was absolutely brilliant and a wonderful thing to be a part of. Can't imagine thinking that those days were piss poor or that the club was pointless simply because a trophy wasn't won. Obviously it'll always be a major disappointment to me that we didn't win a trophy in those periods. But I still loved being a fan of the club back then and that's what Footballs about.

Offer 40m euros with a 1 day deadline, then move on imo.

Would fit the BBC better imo due to his sliminess. But I think he's out of place everywhere personally.

Doesn't force them, but it will very likely influence them to. Most teams don't want to keep a unhappy player.

Football fans getting angry at opposing opinions?, that's incredible! Football is a competitive sport like, it's not supposed to be objective.

What entitles him to that? He's failed in his big move. If he's happy to continue that failure he can, but he isn't entitled to a move to a similar size club. He needs to prove himself in this league first.

Everytime we go ahead and the opposition start to pressure us we've got no plan other than to sit back. Howe has no answer to it. Taking off our main outlet 5 minutes from time is about as far from helping as you can get.

It will probably be set out in the contract how the release clause has to be paid. Doesn't mean its all up front though.

Are people really bothered what he costs? I'm not, if he attacks the ball he'll score a few goals and help us stay up. That's all that matters.

To be fair they have no hope of improving. If we had no takeover and no hope of signing any significant new players this month I'd be assuming relegation as well.

The amount of corners and other crosses we had yesterday, if anyone had attacked them we'd gave scored a couple.

Shouldn't matter. The window is for player registration. So you can sell at anytime as long as the club you're selling too has its player registration window open. Unless they're looking for a player coming in to replace Trippier before selling?

There are 31 days in January and a player can arrive on any of them, not arriving in early January does not equal arriving in February. Also many players have arrived and made a instant impact, look at the likes of Sissoko or Ben Arfa. Yes we should get players in ASAP, but not having the deals all done and announced before the window even opens just doesn't qualify as "time running out". It doesn't even mean they won't arrive in early January.

New players aren't going to be working with Howe at 12 midnight though. We could sign players in the next few days and they'd still have plenty of time to be ready for those games.

Seems clubs are trying to rip us off knowing we need players in ASAP to make a difference in the remaining games. But with Everton and likely Southampton being postponed we've got a bit more time to get players in now.

Heh, yeah not happening. Inter are a great club, but the league their in limits them long term, they've already got a club that can potentially be the biggest in the world. They may get some other smaller clubs, but they won't be wasting their money on inter (again Inter are a massive club, but they have little room to grow, cost 3x what they paid for us and can never be as big as we could be with the right investment).

Haha, aye, hitting the post is "just a shot off target". But Cavani hitting it 6 feet wide is a real chance
