‘Everything is going really well and we as a club are on the up. The fans are positive, the new players are exciting and the management/ownership seem to have a clear plan in place for us to progress and move forward. Sh*t.. what can I moan about now? What’s the motto?’

Poll:

Would you take a draw tonight if offered right now?

A works team eh? Well we can once again be spoken about in the same breath as the likes of PSV (Philips), Atletico Madrid (Spanish Air Force), Leverkusen (Bayer AG), Wolfsburg (VW), etc. Unfortunately we might also be lumped with Arsenal (Woolwich armaments factory) and West Ham (Thames Ironworks).

yes absolutely you can (it wasn't intended as an insult! I think you should embrace it - it could be massive motivation and become part of the fabric and identity of your club).

I like it. It's a pretty neat way of pairing the pension fund's ethos with that of the club. Could have been much much worse. Works for me.

You literally have no idea what you are talking about.

This is video of the Wallow Fire in Arizona in 2011. 538,000 acres were burned. Here's some video for you:

And here's some recent video form the Telegraph Fire in Arizona, started May 29, extinguished on July 8. 25,000 acres burned. Video:

This is a firefighter's code - they run toward adversity. Because few humans do. Could YOU, OP? And we need someone to run toward adversity.

These are our owners. This is their code. There is zero reason to denigrate it.

Nah, I like it. And we need an ethos as a new club and a new team.

The nod to firefighters is nice but not the point. It hints at the what really sets great teams and players apart: namely how they relish the challenge, don’t shrink from it and aren’t put off by setbacks ...

Pretty much the diametric opposite of our last 3 seasons.

At least that vaguely makes sense. All 'run towards adversity' makes me think is 'is that an instruction for the rest of the team to make sure that Nsiala isn't left to his own devices too much'?

“represents the funding of this football club, it represents what we’re about and what we’re trying to do, and I’ve explained that to all of the players that have come in”.

Running towards adversity in terms of funding suggests we're hell bent on spending until we go bust.

Not that I care about this sort of thing in the slightest, but it doesn't make sense.
