We gave Ritchie and Dummet extensions and they were both done as far as playing goes. I think this run in the team will convince the club to stick rather than twist

Thats nice to learn. Always feel like we have one half of the season better than the other.

Not sure where else to put this. But next year, I would love to aim for having a season without any decent periods of underperforming. I don't expect us to not have losing streaks, but to go an entire season without a 6-8 week rough patch would be great. We need a deeper squad for that, and to manage injuries well. But if the recent uptick in confidence is genuine, and permanent then the result will hopefully be better consistency.

There's gonna be a few disappointed journalists when Eddie gives his first prematch press conference, and his response to questions around his illness is 'Whats important is to focus on how well the players and coaching staff did while I was away'

I think only our fans will ever know how good he is/was. I reckon he could have played for anyone if he wasn't so overlooked. However, he was in the team that brought about the end of our trophy wait and thats special. His talent makes him deserving to go down in the history as a winner.

We're asked by our clubs to support our players, and in return I ask them to support their fans. Just don't actively protest against the stuff. I have no fucking clue how that is unreasonable.

I hate when sportstars push against the LGBTQ community. Happens all the time in US sports. Usually they'll get rallied around by the hard right wing cult after the backlash, which doesn't exactly make them look any better. Whether they're homophobes or not, they're definitely not very smart.

You wish he was just a few years younger. Would love him to stay one more year if he's keen.

Must be weird as a manager to get a chance to watch your own team, as a fan, for an extended period.

I don't know how you drop him next season, if he finishes this season in the same form. RW purple has been on our wishlist for a while, but...

This is perfect. Get a 5th in the first 15mins of the 2nd half. Then wholesale changes.

These white hoodies the lads are wearing would be a nightmare for stains #boringmilner.

He doesn't just look like a White Walker. Moves like one too. But seems to do well in battle.

Golden boys have 65mins to get the game done and dusted. Then bring on the lost boys to see it out.

Yeah, they should just force him to stay home until pre-season. He can consult on the summer signings and that, when he's up for it.

Fuck, Thierry's arms are huge.

Isak looking absolutely deflated watching everyone else score

Been too engrossed watching the game I’ve not even thought of coming on here. This team is something.

Someone's having a barbecue.

If anyone needs to be severed, it's this bloke.

Nice to get a good look at DCL with the rumours swirling.

Fuck it's pricey. I might though.

I know, which is why I haven't made it the base of my argument. Though you'd have concerns of him coming into an Eddie side that is notorious for being taxing on your body. We know Gordon said it was shock coming from Everton.

Isn't that how frees work? We pay him like 2x the wage he deserves, as we won't have to pay the transfer fee. And then we can never sell him as no one will agree to pay him what we have. So we keep extending his contract for fear of losing him on a free. Fuck knows how we shifted Lloyd Kelly so quickly. I get I'm being pessimistic, like. This is all worst case scenario. (This is all without mentioning his injury record.)
