Presumably such a good friend that they didn’t have his phone number to send a private text and instead did it publicly? And just so happened that the only 2 of our squad to do so were out of favour and likely to leave in the next week? [Post edited 30 Aug 20:35]

Pretty obviously for the people in the stadium, not the TV audience, isn’t it?
VAR itself remains dreadful and should be binned of course |

Tuanzebe started only 6 more games last season than the player that started at RB for us on Saturday. 3 of the others listed started less games than Szmodics who by your own definition was not a regular. Delap’s role has been replaced by Hirst who has been at the club for 3 years and played 85 games for us
Morsy and Omari are obviously big losses but most teams at this level have to deal with turnover, it’s the nature of the division, as illustrated by Saturdays opposition having more new players than us |

He’s had 2 decent seasons in his whole career, both at Sunderland where they setup to play everything through him. They finished 16th in the best of those seasons, sold him that Summer, and then became a much better team the year after |

Think the toss can be argued on Philogene but it’s fairly obvious that Szmodics was a regular starter when fit, and if 10+ games isn’t enough time to get up to speed how much of this season are we writing off to allow new signings to contribute?
You do also realise Preston had 5 new signings starting yesterday, yeah? [Post edited 25 Aug 7:02]

Colchester has flumes and a lazy river but no wave machine. Crown Pools definitely still had its wave machine c18 months ago so presumably still does, but otherwise not a lot else
Not a swimming pool but as a left field shout to the OP, Alton Water have their Aqua Park on atm:

Hooray for half balancing the books FC
Another way of framing that is that we have since lost the cream of that crop, not replaced them, are stuck with the ones that haven’t worked out, and still have a massive outlay to show for it |

Think you’ve rather overestimated me saying that I think we’ll be up there. I do think that but I don’t know that we will be, we may continue to labour as we have done and fail to get the players in and have another disappointing season - will everything still be amazing at that point or would it be more realistic to say the last 2 years have been sh*t and facing the prospect of fading back into being a Blackburn?
I’m also not sure how anyone could really have enjoyed last year. First half of the season yes fair enough, but the second half was painful, and whilst I completely agree about the context I’m not sure how anyone other than the happiest of clappers could sit there and enjoy watching it
We’ve won 5 league games in 40, 1 at home in 20…but EVERYTHING is amazing! |

That rather glosses over the last 15 months or so doesn’t it? You could just as easily say:
- The club was top of the league with 2 wins from 2 just 2 years ago, and looking forward to an opening day fixture v Liverpool this time last year
- We’ve lost our captain, top scorer and best player from last season, amongst other departures. We’ve had a player start both games in CM who hasn’t been deemed good enough to start the past 2 seasons
- We are winless and have been dumped out of the cup by a League Two side
- We are not going to get promoted resulting in further sales and us dropping further down the table
Obviously most of that is facetious, I think our start was largely been fine under the circumstances and do expect us to be challenging at the top end - but it’s fairly mad to act like everything is still amazing when much of the last year has been fairly miserable to watch! |
