et tu brute

Name me another club who has had to pay compensation for a new board member, which was the point I was making.

He's a manager, nothing to do with a board level appointment.

Don't have a clue and don't think I can remember any other club having to pay compensation.

Stupid if that's the case mind imho.

Let's say they are correct, then to me it seems a bit stupid going for him when we need somebody in now (I would argue it should have been sooner also). Maybe we are negotiating a fee though.

He's been wrong about loads of things relating to us. He's very anti-NUFC.

Can't see it being 9 months as what's the point in going for him. Maybe until the end of season at the very most.

I’d still wait myself as not convinced he will keep this level of performance up.

Don’t think Shelvey makes sense imo, when he has another year left after this one. If he’s still performing ok next Christmas time then fair enough. He’s been here years and has been total shit for most of that time, so has to do a level performance over a much longer period to convince me. No chance in hell would I give Dummett a new contract, as not only is he an injury liability, he’s also a pretty average premier league player. As I mentioned in another thread, it’s an Edwards article, so take with a pinch of salt anyway.

Celebrity like you would surely have been better getting somewhere on the quayside. What on earth made you live there?

The times I have watched them they look a mid table side at best. I always find it funny when the RTG mob keep bellowing that the squad is the best in the league. It’s bang average all over the pitch and the only reason they have an outside chance for getting to the playoffs is due to Stewart who is decent at that level. Was the same story last year, when they had Wyke.

Burton had 4 great other chances on top of the one they scored.

To be fair all the best players (including Anderson and White who have just left) are on loan at football league clubs, which is a better option than playing for the U23s.. The overall standard of the academy will improve greatly in the years to come.

It’s Edwards so would take with a pinch of salt.

Aye he definitely is mind

On paper we have 3 games which we can probably write off (Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool - may give Liverpool a game up here with Wilson and Trippier possibly back), I think possibly with all the other games. there is a chance of gaining points. even though we also have tough games against Tottenham, Arsenal, Wolves, Southampton and Leicester. Hopefully the Tottenham from Saturday will turn up on Wednesday. Bit concerned that Palace are playing Watford and Burnley this week as they are right off form at the moment. You would fancy Southampton to beat Norwich, but like Brighton on Saturday they can be a bit hit and miss. It's in our hands though, if we keep putting points on the total, we should be ok.

Just looked at Flashscores form guide over the last 25 games and they are in 10th position, so it's not just a blip either

Their poor run has come at the same time that the teams which were just above, around and below them, have maintained pretty decent form. The likes of Ipswich, Sheff Wed and Bolton were miles behind them and now they are right up there on their tails. Presently I can see these finishing 8-10th and then as a club, they will seriously implode.

Thing is I very much doubt any big money investment would look twice at them now with us having the riches behind us.

Solid yes, creative not really. Personally I think Bruno should start or at least be given more game time. I’m not the manager though, look at Diaz at Liverpool, Klopp has given him game time straight away.

Thing is though I honestly think by adding Bruno to that midfield it will also take up our level of performance up a level.

For the first time in a long time we have a recognised quality international midfielder to allow midfield squad rotation and he should be getting a game and not just five minutes. There is still not much creativity in the midfield area and I honestly believe Bruno will certainly improve us in that area.

Beat me to it, wish I had read down the page first
