I'm usually one for not tarring all fans with the same brush, but their forum does seem to have a higher population of unlikeable characters than average.

 

 

 

 

Most football fan forums and their presences on Twitter are all the same. I'd despise every club if I based my view of them off what they were like online. And us most of all.

Hope so - cheap as chips tbh. My sis lives in Muswell Hill too and we can hit Toffs (amazing fish and chip shop) on the way home.

Yeah toffs is good - great Thai in the back of a pub just near there as well. Loved O’neills when it used to be there - great days, lived there 17 years.

Howay man. They’re not a nothing club. They are a tiny club. Jack Russell little fuckers need their head bitten off.

That will actually be class. I lived literally 5 mins from there, right opposite maid of muswell pub in Muswell Hill.

I do like the Maid of Muswell. My uncle used to live on Alexandra Park Rd just up from there. Arsenal fan - he was watching the box in his flat when Michael Thomas scored and remembers running up the hill in the park to Ally Pally just jumping and punching the air like Pele  with nobody around.

I get it, but if they’re a nothing club why do you hate them so much?  I don’t hate Man City any more because they really are a nothing club to me now.

I'm saying this as someone who dips in to loads of opposition fan forums though, as I'm sure plenty of others do. That Holmesdale one stands out like a sore thumb (rtg for obvious reasons aside) to me.

This signing was never happening from the very first moment, and yet we’ve been hoodwinked into thinking it was a possibility for all these weeks.

I lived in Muswell Hill for years, always liked Famous Royal Oak on st James lane. Watched toon beat the Arse 3-1 at Highbury in the old O’neills

I wish I could afford to but there but waaay out of my price bracket.

Winning either domestic trophy gets you into Europe, and of course you're winning a trophy as well!

O’Neills was our hangout for a while - the women in the house chatted up all the waiters at La Porchetta so we used to get lock-ins and freebies. Halcyon days

As things stand it's been a shit window

 

3 more days to see if that changes

Anger doesn’t have to be rational Leffe. We’ve been jilted at the altar by the bride’s dad!

Mitchell wasn't there when we bid for olise and hasn't been in English football for a while. 

But you saying there not howe targets  is baseless aswell. 

I’m saying they are the decision of a transfer committee. As it’s been reported that that is how the club operates. You seem to be making it up as you go along. 

[Shadow Puppets]

For what it’s worth (and I know I’m opening myself up for pelters if it doesn’t happen 😂), I’ve just spoken to one of my usual contacts and he’s still adamant that Guehi will sign this week, regardless of being cup tied. I must admit though, I’m starting to doubt it will happen personally, but confidence is still high 🤷‍♂️

 

Don’t shoot the messenger, eh 😁

It's made Eales and Mitchell look like a right bag of spoons so far. I'm not bothered by Guehi, I'd have walked as soon as Palace started pissing about and asking for anything over £50m, while Parish talked his bollocks publicly. If we don't already have alternatives lined up to go for prior to deadline day then we've been no better than we used to under Ashley as far as transfers are concerned for this window... bit embarrassing really for the Saudis and their project imo.

Nothing will happen

Can't see him playing 90 min and coming to us now unfortunately.

You ever asked why they're so adamant?

Cos they are going to offer 80 mil 

[Yorkie]

I can't see his being cup tied being a big deal. Annoying but it'd be weirdly and uncharacteristically short-termist of us if we walked away on that basis.

And then until January, and then until the end of the season, and then until we sell Isak, Bruno and Gordon. Only then will be know if we were wrong to not strengthen in this window, right?

 

Why are you so against the idea (forming a judgement later)? I can absolutely recommend coming around to the way of thinking because it makes for a much less stressful transfer window.

We should move on...they didn't take our offers seriously...enough is enough.

I agree with it in principle, but where does it stop? When can we actually start judging the club on the fact we’re still having to play Jacob Murphy on the right wing?
