Colos Short and Curlies

im not sure you can call it a chance at that distance

In theory Willock has the tools to play right in the forward 3. Practice and theory don’t always play out though. one thing I’d like to see us doing is switching wingers during a game. 10-15 mins of ASM feeding off Trippier and Bruno would be fun

even if it then didn’t work out it would be a hell of a statement to have someone choose is over city

turning down Man U more likely

Small thing, but perhaps drop the Notts now that the game is over? Understandable giving it the bigman from their fans before hand (first game back etc) and the wind up totally fair then.

Gone 6th. made on the assumption that one of the 6 club will have a shitter of a season and we sign another striker. 4-6 is much of a muchness points wise but will be a congested fight

Wilson stays fit and we finish above Man Utd

So Ando hating on Miggy today totalling misguided from those who watched the game? suppose Ando gotta Ando

It was one training session, never mind a game!

Some players just dont cut it after a move regardless on what they are/have done in the league. See Sanchez, A as an example

what order did Dalglishs signings come in? Given, Solano, Didi, JDT are a million miles away from the rest, wonder how much of a panic the Barney’s, Rush, Pearce types were. (Although of course Pearce did alright for us)

I was in Kos when Robert signed. Just remember thinking who?

Imagine the summer of 2001 if this place existed when we missed out on Jeffers and Zenden, only to get an unknown from PSG and a striker from a relegated club who only scored 6 goals that year.

An excellent drive into the box for the pen. we’ve been short on players willing to do that for ages

was it 2 kids who came on? give them the experience of running on the pitch I suppose.

wont Brighton just wear their away kit?

Why not? Its not like they've all gone in off his arse. He's getting into good positions, linking well with Bruno and Trippier and actually seems to have some conviction in his shooting. Of course he could have JDT moment against Forest and it all goes out the window but as it stands today he has improved our RW position from last season and bought the powers that be a little time to get a real improvement signing through the door

Realistically you're looking at a centre mid and right winger as the 2 positions that could be transformational at the start of the season now - Wilson is currently fit and whilst he is fit he is a top 6 striker. Almiron's form (albeit preseason) makes it that bit more difficult to get a transformational signing there so you are left with the third peg of the Bruno-Joe/? triangle to fill as an immediate priority. Yes we need another forward to cover for Wilson's inevitable injury and a winger to push on ASM/Almiron or whoever would be sensible but its not going to hurt us if they come in over the next fortnight compared to being in pay for Atalanta

Harvey Spectre (no Phillip) in the pros

It’s not often you see a manager looking better and more relaxed 8 months into a gig.

CFO still to be appointed…. Might start pestering Amanda on linked in ?

the non Tom Cruise version obviously - that’s Fraser!

sorry but if you buy at 30 and sell at 15 you’ve made a loss. it may be an acceptable loss but it’s a loss

Still waiting for a phone call about my CFO application

I have a feeling it was Danny Mills and accumulation of naughty hacks that day rather than one specific incident
