Look at me, look at me, I have an assistant. Pathetic.

Honestly the negative press spin on what for the most part was a positive press conference is hilarious

Howe's deminer changed massively when Hope was asking questions, it was kind of funny. In regards to the "HOWE HASN'T HAD ANY CONTACT WITH MITCHELL" thing, Eddies words where: "No i've not had any contact with him, but thats not unusual, he has a different job remit to myself, so that happens when i'm on the training pitch".

I'm watching the presser, and this stood out:

Eddies comments from his presser:

In regards to Bunce, as the above comes across as there is a bit of agro between Bunce and Howe. In his presser today, in Eddie terms Howe absolutely raved about Bunce today. His exact words where: "James is working really well I have to say, I think he has been hugely impressive since he has come in, hes very passionate, hard working, involved from the very start planning phase of training, to the execution, he gives us really detailed analysis afterwards as well, so I think he's been a really good addition to the team, its been very positive." Hope going to no Hope as standard in that article.

You guys realise the first half of a press conference tends to be embargo'd right?

I've added him to my FPL team based on this post (And the fact Odegaard is injured), so that expected goals involvement is about to go way down

If that is true, that is proper shite for West Ham fans. Another case of the Premier League not caring about the people that make the game what it is and who pays their wages.

I feel a little bit dirty asking it, as it feels like sucking up to big brother corporate, but what do people think is the best "Super Sunday" intro? For me it's easily this:

Interesting article, interesting thought experiment. 41 XI's, and how you rank them if they where individual teams: Ranking every Premier League XI – first choice, second choice and Chelsea’s C team https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5750586/2024/09/11/ranked-premier-league-xi/

The international guff is over with now right?

Gateshead still top tonight despite no playing and their being 10 games one.

This will be 1-1 I reckon:

The Steves have actually lost a member, Steve Clemence is manager of Barrow these days, and is actually doing surprisingly well currently and has them in third

Seems like he's lost a bit of weight, which you have to commend him for, but it does make him look a bit like your dithering 80 year old aunt who doesn't have a clue what's going on

This is what I got when I googled them

Worth noting this fwiw:

Tensions behind the scenes must be really poor, Eddie is now threatening to kill Mitchell.

Just noticed that Wolves kit is manufactured by a brand I have never heard of, something called Sudu.
