  1. This is where I’m at. Unashamedly
  2. I said nothing about the first point. The second misrepresents my view on January. I was always clear that there was no need to take a RISK by not signing a midfielder. I said even if we make top 4 without signing one (and letting Shelvey go), it’s still a risk of falling away in the Carabao and the league. Now we fell away in one and not the other. Maybe we’d have done better in Carabao with an extra midfielder, maybe not who knows. My view was that the risk wasn’t worth it, not that it was a guaranteed bad move.
  3. It’s Kaka. How much more credible could you want man?
  4. With a rough Diamond, Hearts will always be the wrong Club. Needs to be somewhere that’ll put in the Spade work. A team in Texas that can hold em til they’re 21 is what we want. (the things we come up with whilst passing time on the loo)
  5. I wish lol! No not at all. When I play golf, the trees hope for a bit of wind so they can sway out the way of my shots!
  6. It’s like someone filmed me playing a 7iron only challenge round my local golf course
  7. That would be King Eddie doing his best to win manager of the season next year!
  8. It’s certainly true in the case of certain agents who are currently arguing over the rights to a prem player’s contract. He’s pretty high level and they have a number of players on their books so likely very widespread.
  9. It totally is outrageous, given that being an agent is a largely unregulated business. It just adds a little more perspective on player wage demands. They might be asking for more as they have ongoing liabilities to their agent/staff. It’s a bit like a boxer having to pay trainer’s wages etc out of their fight earnings, the headline figure might not reveal the whole picture.
  10. Interesting point on player’s wages. The agent takes their percentage not just on the transfer fee and/or signing on fee, but also of the entire wages throughout the contract. So if an agent is on say 10% commission for Tielemans, the agent will pocket £20k per week through the contract at £200k.
  11. I want Chris Rigg for the fume!
  12. It’s clear as day that Maxi has Isak’s respect for his skills. That’s commendation enough for me. Maxi stays
  13. I agree but only for today. And if they lose my truce will end at full time.
  14. Second time I’m crying before I’m even doing the school run. Bloody hell I’m a mess!
  15. I suggest we make New Astor a proper kingdom. Make Eddie the King, all monies the club generates comes to him, then he dishes the money out to whom he pleases. Gives players peerages and titles, same with staff etc.
  16. We all know #2 should be Mad Dog Tinds but sadly he’s not been nominated! ?
  17. Love to take Ferguson from Brighton!
  18. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/uk-sport-news/footage-shows-former-swansea-striker-26737233
  19. In the eyes of the EPL we’re like Lord Sauron trying to rule the big six with the One Ring of Power. Sir Edward Howe: “We’re not here to simply compete, we want to be the One Team, To Rule Them All!!!”
  20. May I add, for both sides of the argument, Wout Weghorst?
  21. Eddie’s style may evolve again next year. Perhaps calmer more possession-based football. He doesn’t have to play the same style each year
  22. 100% correct post. You've won the Maxi debate. All subsequent replies should defer to this post.
