Thought overall he was very lenient against Huth and Morgan. Should have booked Huth for grappling Gray. Decided before the game he wasn't going to give Barnes or Vardy anything. Foul on Hendrick was a 100% booking. Our pen shout and our goal were 50/50 shouts that could have gone either way. Not th...

Love Jayrod to bits, but I wouldn't spend over 10 million on him with his injury record

Ric_C

why does this always happen to us?

Ric_C

He's certainly living up to Joey's song about him

Ric_C

So from those quotes, our whole transfer window is reliant on Hull and Norwich getting suitable replacements in time.

Reading between the lines, both deals are done if they get the replacements in

Squeaky bum time

Ric_C

Unless we utilise the "Trippier system" where the wide midfielder is defensive minded but can get forward, and the fullback is attacking and overlapping

Ric_C

Isn't Robertson basically Brady? Or is he a fullback only? Could be our fallback option maybe

Ric_C

Put it this way, since the clarets moved into the cricketfield our home form has been nothing short of phenomenal

Ric_C

Taking both my kids on today. Only their 2nd ever game. Looking forward to it

Ric_C

So in a nutshell, snodgrass wants to go to West Ham, Brady wants to go to Palace, and we're left holding the baby

Ric_C

Haha above Rovers

Ric_C

Palace are after Van Arnholt aren't they?

Thought we bid 7.5 million? Or have I dreamt it?

Ric_C

Pep = losing it

Ric_C

Did anyone read the thread title in the voice of Yoda?

Ric_C

I think the odds would be ridiculous on us getting a result today

Ric_C

Think Scott Arfield with better ball retention and crossing ability.

Not sure if he works as hard though

I'm of the impression he can play on the right in a 4 and / or just behind the striker in a 5

Ric_C

Yeah, but JBG is seeming to be a bit injury prone.

The way I see it, Brady is an upgrade on Boyd, Snodgrass and upgrade on Arfield.

If I had to choose, I'd go for Snodgrass, as he is proven quality at this level

Ric_C

I know it's not a total excuse, but they've had really bad luck with injuries. If we'd lost as many as them we'd be struggling also. Good for us though

Ric_C

Position wise, potentially

Form wise... there is more to come

Ric_C

Ditto for Lowton. Andre trolling reading with his tweet about being champ player of the year was pretty awsome (after they scuffed the spot up) The big pile on after the boro equaliser was right in front of me, and Matty Taylor kicked and broke the ad board :) Scotty Arf has so many great moments, j...

They seem like a measured bunch on there as opposed to a lot of the forums you go on.

They don't seem to rate Long or J rod though. I'd take either of them!

Ric_C

never mind us, but the MOTD team really seem to have an issue with Boro for some reason.

Ric_C

Ramirez is their Defour. They are struggling for creativity already. Losing him would be a massive blow for them

Ric_C

What could be in our favour this time round is that Norwich need to raise funds to bring players in. So I don't see this going down to the last day of the window.

Ric_C

Yeah that's what I thought, but the bids are so derisory, it's as though they are bidding on a player who's out of contract in the summer

Ric_C

Why is the fee so low? Surely with a year and a half on his contract he's worth around£10-15 million. Or am I missing something?

Ric_C

Think he'd only just signed on loan as well

Ric_C

The problem Lowton has is that he has had to follow Tripper, and we are always comparing the two.

Ric_C

It's quite clear Bumba has a serious issue with Andre Gray

Ric_C

Guybrush Threepwood

Ric_C

Trouble is that back in the day, the best chance of true glory was beating a Liverpool or a Derby or Sheffield U. Nowadays the whole future of our club depends on the premier league cash. So for me tomorrow is an excercise in trying a free swing at sorting out our away form. A few years as an establ...

Ric_C

didn't Watford want 30 million for Deeney?

I wouldn't swap Gray for him

Ric_C

I couldn't give a **** if he has a gambling problem, or smokes 40 a day. If he can beat a man and keep us up, then let's get him in.

Also if we've just signed another player who bets quite a bit, isn't that double standards?

Ric_C

Troy Deeney was awful at the turf. Callum Wilson was anonymous

Ric_C

Was he the one who "outed" jimmy savile years ago?

Ric_C

Dunn played when we beat them 2-1 at ewood?

Ric_C

To have any chance of survival we need to find a formation that suits us away from home
