Fair play LTL at least you have players at a budget we like ( I notice free to 3m mentioned a lot) But Dyches aesthetic is “28, proven, no risk” which is expensive. If you added 2 of your type of players to the squad every year, given maturation etc, you’d have a nicely refreshing team on a pretty c...

Once ran up to the tube I was on as the doors were closing. Pulled them apart with his hands with some help from people inside as we used to do back then. !!! Stood opposite me for a few seconds and he was just massive and chiseled. I looked his weight and height up later he was the same as me but I...

Just like claptrappers I’m going the other way. I can’t stand the ending of Sugar Hiccup by the Cocteau Twins. It’s a fade out! That melody could go on for about 10 minutes and make it an absolute transcendental classic ,or stop abruptly with aplomb. Instead, the producer (presumably Watts?) fades i...

Nathan Holland somehow reminds me of when we signed Zavon Hines. If it's true I certainly hope our scouts have picked him up on stats and watching him rather than just picking him up because he's out of contract. We got Zavon because of that West Ham scout Eddie signed up who he thought was fantast...

Nice to see Mr Dyche giving the 2 young lads a ho to possibly stake a claim for 4th choice CB

Very generous! Wish I had that written into my contract!

The best bit about Taylor is his innate ability to go down in stages like a galloping racehorse with shin splints with a sort of schoolboy innocence and the refs buy it every time. Gets us loads of dangerous free kicks in their territory. Love him to bits.

I only saw a brief clip on the evening news, but that speech sounded dignified and what America needs right now is unity. Sadly I doubt that will happen during the heat of an election campaign, and the situation in Wisconsin is deteriorating by the day. The cynic in me would suggest that Melania ha...

We need someone that picks locks. I would have thrown the lot at Silva for a 2 year contract. Manchester based etc etc no need to move the family etc etc.

Often feel we could seduce Man City’s releases.

Potential return for Defour?

How can anybody read that and still continue this “Defour always wanted to be on the physios table “ rubbish

Legend.

It would look great but I’d wear it 1 day a year

Correct. I had to return to work. Sadly my mortgage and other bill's wouldn't pay themselves, and my family needed feeding. Maybe I should have tried to fo the whole 12 weeks with no income at all coming into the household. Well then you’re just like the other 12 million in the world who are toughi...

Yes I have. And it is the dicks who are flouting them who have left me, and many others, trapped at home.

So sorry but it is downright wrong, selfish and irresponsible to tell people to do what they want.

Why on Earth are some people rattled by someone posting a long informative comment? Is a comment not a comment though, not 5000 words? A message board is for a message, not a tome? I don’t get rattled by it but I just don’t have time to read them as I check in for a few minutes every day. So I skip...

I’ve played where there were women on the other team (in the US you can’t discriminate against it) and they were well worth their place. Not as physical but certainly more technical which made our Sunday Pubbers look a bit stupid. So all of those “best women’s team in the world wouldn’t beat the Mor...

Apparently Southampton offered 12m for Maehle 18 months ago and were knocked back. Love my club but can’t see us spunking 15m on a RB.

This is my 5th summer in the high desert of New Mexico and it’s actually the coolest yet. Most days rarely a 100 but today was 106. Interestingly from July 4th onwards is rainy season but this year the clouds gather and just suffocate us with humidity , not releasing the moisture.

It’s quite weird.

I remember applauding the walkers in Gillingham, but for the life of me I can't recall the Laws own goal. Mentioning the London Clarets, I still think one of the most spectacular / embarrassing OGs was one I "scored" myself with a screaming 18-yard volley when attempting a clearance playing for the...

Used to play footie out in that back grassy area when my sisters were doing whatever sisters do in the pool. No matter how many times the ball got kicked over the wall into Marsden Park there was always some “old codger” who would happily fetch it and throw it back to you. Barbed wire and everything...

I watched it live on whatever US tv channel it was on and for the first time realized what a player Defour could be. He was a metronome that we played along to..Like Barcelona’s tiki taca but with an incisive pass into danger areas that would **** the crap out of defenders.

CharlieinNewMexico

Great topic for scientists and data analysts would be the rejection of physicality in the appreciation of younger players. A model or algorithm could work out that if your dad was 6’2 and your mum 5’4 you could stop clubs rejecting you as “too small” when you’re only 15

When I first moved to Virginia I came across the phenomenon ThunderSnow! I have no idea how it happens, but it was snowing and thundering and lightening at the same time. Never saw it in Florida , Kentucky , or since in New Mexico.

Regarding player salaries, I noticed the other day that Hamilton Academical players in the Scottish Premiership have an average annual salary of £45,000. If that is workable in that league, I don't see why similar levels couldn't be viable in League 2.

I hear they have a great keeper ....

I’ve heard our staff start out in Manchester / Cheshire but end up buying places in Barley, Pendleton, and the like. Any truth?

CharlieinNewMexico

I like Ramsdale. But I don’t think he’s what we need. There’s a lot of flash Harry about him but he rarely comes for a cross without it being panic stations. (Eddies defense ,basically). If we need to replace Nick we should go for someone of similar commandeering attitude.

CharlieinNewMexico

The same journo who first linked us with Matty Cash is now saying we're after Deeney (kind of believable with the Dyche link, but would be a waste of money) and Gerard Deulofea. Think he's just throwing names out there in the hope that one sticks. Would imagine Deulofea in particular is one of Watf...

Yep. Higher reported cases in wards with higher Asian populations. This might be because of the nature of Muslim worship, i.e., regular gatherings in mosques, or perhaps (or even coupled with the fact) Asians are typically more likely to live in tightly-knit family groups*, which might be considere...

For that reason I think Buendia would be perfect for us. Was in the top 5 PL players in terms of both tackles and assists last year, so gets stuck in as much as he creates. Good engine too, can run with the ball (which we don’t have so much of in central midfield) and can get out of tight spaces - ...

Was 2017 and 2019 when they were there, I hadn't heard anything about this year at all.

Remember watching those games on rerun at 5am after coming in from night shift. Glass of Bourbon in hand and being seriously underwhelmed by someone called Dwight McNeill

Don’t think Dyche likes that type of CM though? All our CMs over the last 7 years have been athletic, two touch, move it on quickly players who can put a foot in and tackle. None of them above 6 ft.

This time last year Pope was an England squad player, now he’s the pundits pick. And it takes a lot to make them see it.

That being said, Brownhill has looked seamless in central midfield. Decent on the right, but a metronome in the center just like AW.

CharlieinNewMexico

Admittedly only from YouTube footage but he looks like he has potential. Not the finished article by any means. I like the fact he's prepared to drive into central midfield if he sees space open up for him. I think he's more likely to be one for the future and will have to bide his time. Which make...

Bardsleys best mate though watch out !

CharlieinNewMexico

Anyone question him for the 2nd goal a bit? I think Taylor or Mee would have busted a gut to get back on the line to clear, whereas Pieters took the option of covering the pass to the middle which was always going to be the lesser of the 2 dangers.
