  1. Every website I can find says he’s 179cm other than this one which says he’s 185cm (under 6’1”) https://www.transfermarkt.com/ivan-toney/profil/spieler/251664
  2. https://www.brentfordfc.com/teams/first-team/forward/ivan-toney/ the official Brentford website says he’s 179cm (5’ 10”)
  3. Maybe because Ferguson is still there and employed by the club? (Itself a problem, given he allegedly recommended the appointments of Moyes, Mourinho and Ole). Can just imagine fisticuffs between auld red nose and nice guy ole over the parking space. Or do you mean the generic manager space?
  4. Imagine most people feel the same way when they’re told Shelvey has 6 England caps.
  5. Carrick takes charge ‘whilst they will appoint an interim manager until the end of the season’, supposedly.
  6. OGS compensation allegedly £7.5m. Bruce got £8m. As piss poor as Ole is, just shows even more what a fucking joke our club was under the previous owner in giving these contracts out to keep the incompetent ‘yes’ men sweet.
  7. Wonder if he did the ‘fingers in ears’ celebration before throwing his captains armband away…?
  8. Burnley level with Palace - 3-3
  9. He’s been talked about, but the roles are confusing me…is a technical secretary the same as a director of football…? Or if we appointed him, would we also get another as a DOF?
  10. That’s fine, plenty of other decent candidates. Get Campos in.
  11. https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1522727/Newcastle-transfer-news-Amanda-Staveley-gossip five or six transfers now expected in Jan after a review of the playing squad found out they’re mostly shit.
  12. Media last week stated they expected an appointment this week, before the Brentford game.
  13. Nope. £34m iirc wiki: Abraham signed for Serie A club Roma on 17 August 2021 on a five-year contract, with the transfer fee reported to be £34 million, with Chelsea including a £68 million buy-back clause which can only be triggered after the player has completed two seasons with Roma.
  14. After Hoffman I hope they move onto Masters.
  15. Completely separate from a DoF role. Every club will have a Nickson (chief scout type) as well as a DoF.

    Sunderland

    Ganna lewn iz Ben Yedder an Tchouameni marra…
  17. “Small time as fuck”…trying to buy a £40m Dutch international player from the current league champions… wtf.
  18. Wonder why his agent was at the Spurs game then. He’ll go where he gets the most game time (and potentially where he’s paid the most.)
  19. The issue is that the league is an uncompromising place to play, and even more so to come in and adapt to it. Those players are mentioned because they’re already used to it and could do an immediate job. Players from abroad, no matter the reputation, can be overawed, at least for a season or two, and we need results immediately.

    St James' Park

    If only we had pink seats to change too…
  21. They’re appointing Edwards deputy into the position.
  22. Not just wealth to be made, but improving their reputation via sportswashing (as is supposed to be happening) is far more likely to be done via the PL and it’s vast worldwide audience than Serie A.
