How long do we keep going with the ‘new team has to gel’ gimmick?
at 19:26 30 Aug 2025

It's all about nuance isn't it? The world isn't actually all in black or white despite what appears to be the current trend for well everything.

We are looking to play a type of football that takes time and intelligence to implement, using systems and tactics that take time and intelligence to understand.

When we get there then I suspect sides like derby will be brushed aside, but it will take time. If we decided to play 442 and just buy the best lump in each position then it would all happen a lot faster but with a much lower ceiling, and yes I don't deny there's perhaps an argument for that in this division, same as there's an argument for saying when it does start to come together we might be too far back but that is our process, and as we've seen, it works.

Very strong rumours Leeds are looking to do a deal, though you'd think Nodge will do whatever it takes to resist selling him, would be almost throwing in the towel at this stage unless they can magic some rabbits out of hats.

(Maybe Darren Eadie's hat?)

Furlong. Possibly the most sensible signing for a while
at 15:17 28 Aug 2025

No player gets told they are starting when signing surely?

As a player you presumably look at who's there and back your ability to get in the side?

I think McAteer is a lot more than a pragmatic signing, gives us a lot more balance and wouldn't be surprised if we see a lot of him starting.

Walle Egeli in FC Nordsjælland matchday squad…
at 15:32 25 Aug 2025

How has he suddenly gone from being somebody nobody on here had heard of, to being the messiah in a couple of weeks?

At best surely he's a raw young player with lots of potential, not somebody likely to have huge impact on the first half of our season even if he came.

Don't get me wrong, the idea excites me too, but perhaps it's been decided we need more guaranteed immediate impact than he's going to be able to supply.

I actually think KM adds to our balance nicely and will be seen as a decent signing before too long, perhaps not the stardust we are hoping for, perhaps a bit more than we might have thought, but nonetheless has the ability to help us very quickly and in a positive way.

People with good knowledge have said that's what it was. Of course 'failing' could be a whole range of things, but ultimately as I understand it the results of the medical were the reason it didn't happen.

I nearly got embroiled there but wondered what the point was.

Sometimes you feel we don't deserve talent like that with those sorts of imbeciles.

He's a young lad with huge ambition and talent, for a while his ambition and ours aligned. It may be that he goes on to things beyond us, it may be that we eclipse him, but both parties had two years of pleasure and I'm sure both will, eventually, remember it fondly.

It's where we are, it's the model, we have to appreciate these talents while we can while always striving to move up the pecking order.

Lots of these young guys now are going to see us as a stepping stone and use us while they can, likewise we use them, it's modern football. It's also no bad thing.

Those getting upset over the nature of his departure might as well save their ire for something else, it's the modern game. No I don't like it either, but I can't change it so may as well just appreciate the quality while I can.

Clapping Putin as he arrives in Alaska

I think it's much deeper than this, and not just in the States but they are ahead of the curve.

Look at Japanese culture ahead of the second world war, the indoctrination in country and honour, the unified belief that they needed to fight to the very last person standing.

We've gone through a similar thing in the West, except we're being constantly drip fed misinformation by the elite, the people with money.

Divide and conquer, blame immigrants or the working classes or the middle classes or people not like you, go fight them while we slowly but surely add to our portfolios and mop up the rest of the world.

It's easy to mock Americans who voted Trump, want to MAGA, know they are the greatest country in the world that saved everybody else twice and now defends the entire planet, but many are brought up being taught that from infants and have no reason to question it.

I'm not sure we are that much better on the whole, look at who's slowly but surely rising up the political system.

That's actually like a dystopian drama, hard to believe if we weren't aware of all that had gone before.

You have to worry for the world. History won't be kind to Mr Trump.

Sorry if I'm being dim and it's satire but it's getting very difficult to differentiate these days.

Darren Currie to return?

The slowest winger in history, if he's lost half a yard over the years he'll be playing in reverse now. Loved watching him though.

So using your usual flip, and a similar amount of logic applied.

You're suggesting that TWTD is furious that we're letting the black kid leave, when we should be holding on to him, but complete indifference over the white kid leaving?

That it?

As somebody who has lived in Central London for about fifteen years now, and hear these things said about Sadiq fairly regularly from people who live nowhere London it's become apparent, after engaging these people that invariably the only thing they actually know about him is that he's brown and has a foreign sounding name.

He's not perfect, but we survived Boris so....
