  1. We have no identifiable patterns of play going forward and haven't for a while imo. I couldn't tell you what we're trying to do to go and win the game in possession in most matches.
  2. Got knocked out by Cheltenham at home in the first round.
  3. My brother is a Mags+ member and is yet to win a single ballot this season. I'm just a Mags member and have been successful in 2.
  4. Around 60 think. Giving it a miss this time due to the price.
  5. Semenyo and him. Whilst Semenyo I'd take, dat #scouting. (if true of course)
  6. That tone deaf bloke near the commentary team singing, someone shut him up, man.
  7. Absolutely shocking treatment, that. I met and chatted to Matt Willis for a bit at the end of the ballot workshop thing back in February. He's a sound bloke, about early 30s in age, used to go home and away and on the same page as many of us regarding ticketing stuff. Hopefully he sorts it out for you.
  8. Genuinely hope that thick Brummie cunt is involved in a chip pan fire.
  9. Starting to think that draw with Man City at SJP wasn't actually as good a result as I thought it was.
  10. Absolutely zero chance. Signed a new contract at Atleti only last year and can't see him managing anyone else, let alone us.
  11. Semi related but an issue I'm personally really passionate about so happy that this made it on there.
  12. We knew about the rules from the outset and haven't managed it well though, imo. We've been poor sellers since the takeover and that the recruitment strategy was criticised by the current DOF in public should speak enough volumes, not excusing the shambles of a summer window we've just had.
  13. The 1-1 was under Jones. Was utter AIDS if memory serves. The 0-0 we were by far the better side and just couldn't score, though we had a solid back line to fall back on then.
  14. Granted. Agree. £40m isn't relatively cheap imo, especially when margins for us are so fine given how poor we've been at selling thus far. And £40m on an alleged squad player that played in a position that we already had players who could either play there or do a decent job there, whereas the opposite flank has been neglected for 7 and a half years (at the time of signing, 6) isn't also an intelligent use of £40m either imo. Whether Barnes is happy to be squad player at 26 is another thing. Barnes isn't a bad player by any stretch but the money spent on him could've been far better utilised, especially when now looking at his game time and number of starts when he's been available 18 months on. And looking at the RW. Who the manager has so far not been able to get him into his team. £55m on a player that sits on the bench or is regularly substituted nigh on every week isn't 'exceptional value'. True. They look reckless at present given the frantic summer attempting to meet PSR which meant we had to sell two players that the club didn't want to. We do. Especially ones that can get into and improve the starting 11 in necessary positions. Yep and we haven't been managing it very well.
