I thought they were done for when they went down and there was loads of talk of them being in financial turmoil. He’s been brilliant from the very start, clearly going to be an outstanding manager
-
Was one of my favourite players for us during those grim years. Always felt he could have been a great player but maybe it wasn’t ever on the cards or maybe he just needed a manager like Howe
-
He’s definitely on board, we know how good he is with his PR and playing down our transfer activity. He’s just a shrewd operator
-
I think he’s got a lot of potential but he’s incredibly unlikeable. He also gives away a lot of needless fouls which would enrage me. I don’t think technically his ceiling is anywhere near as high as some players we could get, the main thing he has going for him is a ratty tenacity and a decent all round game. I’m sure they’ve pored over the data and must feel confident about some of his attributes, just feel it’s such a strange direction for us to go in

Was it to summer 2025 with us?

Lovely stuff, almost makes me want to sign up to Instagram
-
Genuinely the best piece of football he’s been involved in, he had to do a bunch of things right there and he did them all. None of it was incredibly difficult but it was nice to see him doing the simple things and doing them decisively

Genuinely hope that Forest stay up and that Wood plays a role for them in keeping them up. Would be great for him and us if they make it permanent. I struggle to figure out how he’s going to get lots of goals as I think we were set up pretty well to help him score. I don’t know what his xG was per game but I’m sure he scored way under it. The Forest fans think they’re getting someone great in the air and they’d be correct if the sole criterion was actually winning headers. Anyway, thanks Wood, will always think of you fondly, provided you don’t come back

Aye, let’s be having Conte in tears please

Obligation to buy, be still my throbbing cock

Nketiah has also developed a huge amount in the space of a year
-
I’ve warmed loads to Mehrdad and Amanda, I’m sure they’re massive Tories too but I can’t warm to Jamie at all, looks like a smarmy twat
-
Will make it all the sweeter when they finish below us and change their manager before shitting the bed and buying another six £50m+ players in the summer. They’re an absolute mess
-
Good transfer for all involved given the relationship had totally broken down at Brighton. Fuck knows what went on there. I actually don’t despise Arsenal to the same degree as the other top teams and I’m not a big fan of Arteta but I’d prefer them to win the league over City
-
Wouldn’t be surprised if Fernandes was a cannibal
-
Think we’ll get a lot of chances to score. Isak is bagging another goal here and surely Botman is getting his head on a corner in this one

There I was with the Wimbledon trophy in my hands telling anyone who’d listen that I didn’t deserve the trophy. Yes, I’d not lost a single point in the whole tournament but here, I said, let someone else have a chance at the limelight. Let me get back to saving that football club in the north east, that’s all that matters. They carried me off the court on their shoulders and took a blood sample for drugs checks, I bled black and white cos I love the club me. Even though the fans didn’t quite get what I was going for, I don’t blame them for that, could have just done with a little bit of a thank you for getting the new owners in but hey, that’s life isn’t it, sometimes those who do the most don’t always get the thanks they deserve but I’ll just do me own thing, I’m not looking for any handouts

Thuram would be amazing, shame he called us a bunch of freaks and said he’d only sign for one of the established big boys
-
How are Leeds so high up? I don’t get football finance at all, have they got some huge sponsorship money coming in?
-
Never understand how West Ham are so high up. Is it because they got gifted that stadium?

It’ll be our results against the weaker teams in the league which will decide if we finish top 4. If we can beat teams in the bottom half until the end of the season, accounting for the odd slip-up or draw then it’s ours

It was a side-by-side challenge, I’d generally not want those given unless there was a big push with the arm
