Comment | McKenna: The Most Broken Game I've Been Involved In
at 19:45:19
Welcome back to the Championship Mr M. This is why you are paid the big bucks, to out-smart the opponents. We are a big fish now and you need to work out how to cope with 23 teams who will park the bus at Portman Road (maybe 21) and the poop-housery they will bring with them. |

Greaves was jumping without the use of his arms as the Brum players were hanging off him. |

Comment | McKenna: We've Had High Expectation Before and Dealt With It Really Well
at 21:45:24
Can someone please explain the fuss around Brum this season? Have they got Prem quality players all of a sudden? 3rd favourite to win the league? I laughed when the bookies has us a favourite to get relegated to L1 in 2018/2019 and they were right so they must know something. |

Comment | Akpom Remains Intent on Joining Town

Looks like Ajax want rid (rather than player development) with the "obligation" to sign. Can't say he is prolific but the clip reel shows he's strong with his back to goal. I expect Chappers and Cajuste (please!!!) to get plenty of goals from his hold up play. |

Buttocks ready to get bitten by this one. I can see from all parties this may be the right move, but he's a decent player and I'm expecting him to play a significant part on our games against them. |

I think a lot of the issues with Muric are also his off-field antics. There is a good keeper in there somewhere but the Bruce Grobbelaar style is not for me. I personally feel Palmer is a better all round keeper and instills more confidence in the back line. There is nothing worse that looking back to find your keeper is out at the corner flag trying to make a tackle. Perhaps David button will calm him down a bit. |

Comment | Wrexham Make £7m Approach For Broadhead

£7M gets you nothing in this league. He's worth way more than that. If he wants to leave, he has my best wishes and gratitude, but I would love him to stay. |

Comment | Young Close to Completing Town Move
at 17:09:38
I can't decide if he would command a massive salary or not. I don't think MA would spend big on someone at this stage in their career. Maybe at 35, Young would want to pump his pension fund as full as possible. But at 40 and still lucky enough to be fit enough top play, why would he miss his (potential) swansong season for being greedy? But then, experience is something that you can clearly buy after all. |

I remember singing "He's here, he's there" at Roker Park in 1992, and the police told us off. Substitute in "...were not allowed to swear...." and the problem was solved. Plod has a laugh too, back in days when they were human. |

Comment | Brentford Make £35m Bid But Fail to Meet Terms Ahead of Release Clause Deadline
at 13:34:52
If you have ever listened to the podcast The Price of Football, Kieran Maguire explained (not sure which episode) how complex some of these payment plans can be. A club could still be paying for a player that has long since left the club. Maybe we are still paying for Delap or Tuanzebe for example.
I guess in this case, Brentford were putting down a really small deposit and paying us over 3 or 4 years. Maybe they are hedging their bets against being sucked into a relegation battle this season and don't want to spend too much. This is clearly no use to us as we would need the cash for the replacement player, or at least a decent deposit.
I'm sure the intricacies of football business are way more complex than my small brain can comprehend, but it seems to me we are offering a financial service to Brentford so they can buy our player. Nuts to that!!! You want him, you give us the money - now! Why should we be fleeced so you can have a player at cut price? And if they fail to keep up payments, do we send the bailiffs in to get him back? |
