Nowt like making the sub when we still actually had a tiny chance of getting something from the game. Nah, let's wait until we're 2 down. Ben Arfa style.

So bad.

Remembered Bassedas, forgot Gouffran, which is a real testament to how anonymous he is.

Hope that wasn't actually a broken tail bone.

Marginally more positives than negatives, but that back four is going to get torn to shreds when we play better sides than that team of haircuts.

Hope the last 15 min or so are just fitness issues. Been woeful.

Christ.

There was no way in fuck Long wasn't scoring.

YESS GIGI

Done with Cisse.

As it turns out, perhaps Shane Ferguson isn't the answer at centre-half.

I really love Aarons. I really hope he stays fit.

Good f***. It's ok but it could use more WONGA

I was desperate for Roro to score personally. Would have been a real highlight. As for the football, Aarons and Ayoze were bright spots, but I'm starting to get the worrying feeling that McClaren's first eleven against Southampton will be very, very disappointing.

Ha.

"club monitor player" "club pondering offer" "player set to join" "player ponders offer" "club expecting definite bid" "player/club left in limbo" "club/agent/owner cools talk" "transfer struggling to get over the line" "player set to decide on future" "player remains linked" "new player targeted" "club line up shock move for some other player" "talks planned with new player" "talks ongoing with old player" 1001 ways to say nothing has actually happened. At least the Twitter thread has some random misogyny and arguing. This thread is just names paired with verbs in the future tense.

"Shut out streak is over!" The men's tournament on Fox is going to be intolerable.

Dat clearance

Watching this on a Chilean channel and it's brilliant

Best pen ever

Is there some sort of a constitutional thing about Alexi Lalas ginger face being on TV every time they show football in this country?

Weighing a loan option > Monitoring. That's Defcon 2. Play our cards right and he'll be "set to be confirmed" before we know it.

Immediate transfer requests from Steven Taylor and Rob Elliot.

I prefer my Championship quality signings to be bargains from foreign leagues so I can pretend they won't be s***. Not actual Championship players.

I genuinely don't know who Garbutt is but there must be a better u-22 left back somewhere in England.
