 | Forum Thread | Palmer at 11:52 21 Apr 2025
I seemed to be the only one in the NSL bemoaning Palmer for the first goal yesterday. Am I the only one on here who thought he was criminally slow in getting down to the shot? Morsy's ice-cold glare at him suggested he felt Palmer should've done much better too. There seems to be a real love-in with Palmer among the fans (simply because he's not Muric, perhaps?) But I can't really see much difference between him and Walton IMO. |

At risk of breaking her own borrowing rules within the space of six months. Oh for a government with a semblance of financial acumen and honesty. It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. |
 | Forum Thread | Richard Kone at 11:03 11 Mar 2025
Nugget of info I've received. We're very keen on him. Been watching him like a hawk while keeping taps on Humphreys and even came close to bidding in January. Apparently, it's possible that we sell Al-Hamadi and use those funds to put towards a bid for Kone. Hirst, Kone and one other would be an athletic front line for the Championship. |

Has to be one of our priorities for centre mid in the summer. A real powerhouse. We sniffed around last summer so hopefully he'd still fancy us. |
 | Forum Thread | No patterns of play at 21:25 26 Feb 2025
Nothing. No movement. Vision. Bravery through the lines. Aggression in the tackle. Even Casemiro smashed Johnson in a 50/50 FFS. McKenna's subs always feel too little, too late. |
 | Forum Thread | 2-2 at HT against 10 men... at 21:03 26 Feb 2025
And we've shat the bed. I hope this thread makes me look silly in half an hour, but we've looked clueless against their ten men. So reluctant to grab the bull by the horns. F00king give it some lads FFS. |
 | Forum Thread | O'Shea and Greaves at 10:04 24 Feb 2025
Do we think that's a partnership with long-term potential? If I'm honest, I appear to be hugely in the minority regarding O'Shea, who I'm still on the fence with. As committed and wholehearted as he is, I feel like his technical ability and positioning leave quite a bit to be desired. I can't help feeling neither O'Shea or Greaves thrive being the 'leader' and would do better with a more experienced head alongside them. Could be a very different story with them in the Championship, of course. |

We should be frothing at the mouth to sign him at that price. Ideal competition for Delap. |

Offer on the table with Galatasaray, apparently. |

Swiss Ramble believes we're going to make a £37m loss in total over 21/22, 22/23 and 23/24, just £2m within the allowed £39m three-year loss. They also state we'll need to lose no more than £36m in 24/25 to comply next year. EDIT: They've also got Leicester *breaching* by £12m, despite the Maresca compensation and Dewsbury-Hall sale...

 | Forum Thread | Time for pragmatism at Portman Road at 17:12 21 Dec 2024
As laudable as it is to take an attacking approach at home, if we're serious about staying up it's time for a more pragmatic system IMO. PL coaches are finding holes in our midfield and backline all too easily. The system at Spurs should've been our blueprint home and away. |
 | Forum Thread | The Double Pivot at 22:49 3 Dec 2024
It just doesn't work against teams in a mid-block, does it? So disconnected between Delap and our midfield. Palace have basically shown the blueprint of how to stifle us now. We desperately needed to change shape tonight and create more space in the wide areas, but |
 | Forum Thread | Fresh injuries on top of last week's absentees at 14:42 24 Oct 2024
*Puffs out cheeks* Who wants to guess the likely injuries this week? Since McKenna mentioned about 'how long Cajuste can manage' on Saturday, I expect one of Morsy or Phillips is struggling. If I'm being brutally honest, I'd find it quite refreshing to see that pairing broken up, at least in the short term to try and find a winning formula elsewhere. |
 | Forum Thread | Morsy and Phillips at 16:33 19 Oct 2024
It's not working is it? It's really not. Too timid, too loose in possession. Willing Phillips to take a game by the scruff of the neck. |
 | Forum Thread | Town TV training vid at 15:39 18 Oct 2024
There's a kid in training with blonde highlights. Really short afro hair, playing wide and doing cutbacks etc. I don't recognise him in the slightest. Who is he?! |
