Sheffield United away...absolute banker we would lose that.

That one where we were 2-0 up under Rafa hurt the most. Aye. Remember a blatant handball by Ashley Young in the box in first half at 0-2 not being given, if we go 0-3 up we win that. Yep, ref wasn't even looking at the ball when it was taken (free kick by Shelvey).

But you didn't end up hating him with all your soul Nope, weirdly enough. I save that for Bruce. Agreed and what i was getting at, Bruce is on another level.....the Pardew Parallel I shall call it.

Harsh on Anon like.

Aye Darlow has performed well but play your best goalkeeper you stupid oaf.

Loss. Well shit.

Sure, it might not be. But I think it's unlikely it isn't connected now, as the amount of money involved for Staveley is absolutely huge in comparison to her estimated net worth. I just can't see her using a case against Barclays, winning it hopefully so she can fund part buying us, or paying back borrowing to buy us. Just sounds like pure fantasy. 2+2=5 like. A couple of petrol shop owners just bought out Asda with Asda's own money, stranger things can happen. I'm just saying that it can't be ruled out is all. In the pre-Covid times when things were more stable, it was easier to risk a bigger % of your assets on seemingly risky ventures. But now the risks are higher due to the volatility and unpredictability of the economy, she may not be as willing to part with whatever standing capital that she had available outside the Barclay's case at this point in time. So my overriding point is the outcome of the case would matter more now, than it did when it was initially brought. However, I do agree it's far fetched that the takeover bid was launched predicated on funds from a court case not even brought yet. There's more nuance to this than some are suggesting. Oh I would agree with that, but I think in our desperation we're seeing mirages. I hope I'm wrong like, I really do.

Aye, that's my view.

What an inspiration Bruce is :lol:

Did it occur that maybe one is not connected to the other ?

How could you know that, or anyone else for that matter ? That just sounds like something plausible but it reality is just utter nonsense.

Doh !!!

Haven't they booted him out previously? Aye they did, usual shit. Late for training, not turning up, arrested again etc. Different manager now though, and yet another second chance for him.

Southend are desperate for a striker, very actually.

Pickford was poor on that, weak hand on it imo.

Fat man burned the bridge with Rafa when he left, no chance of Rafa coming in with Ashley still having his chubby mitts on the club.

The ref booked Judge for diving when he clearly gets taken out, it was a ridiculous decision by the ref. Judge pointed at the ref and the ref got in his face.....no idea what Judge said mind but he must have been fuming after the ref accused him of simulation.

If all the things around ownership and funds are in place, Rafa would be here in a shot. Relegated, League One all irrelevant imo. He wants a project and we're it if we've been bought out properly.

What the fuck is Lewis doing, you're a defender you div.

Brilliant tackle that.

I hate saying it but i really couldn't care less if we lose, and will be happy if we don't. It's such a weird feeling.

Do you seriously believe they are concluding the deal in the middle of the Caribbean at a time when people have been told to limit travel? You do realise company purchases like this happen between lawyers in an office, not between the parties face to face? They aren’t buying a car off Auto Trader. We've had a maniac on airplane watch for 6 months, like some sort of mental Asperger's hacker. We have some of the worlds weirdest and most deranged internet users, most of which are on some sort of watch list. Why not believe that ? Seems quite tranquil compared most of our general nuttiness

Same until Wilson got injured, if things go badly in the next few games the pressure will be really on. And as Bruce is a moron, my anxiousness will be through the roof.
