Prescription prepayment certificates, assuming that's what this is about, expire after three or 12 months. Paying by DD may enable automatic renewal, but there are exceptions, including if you're turning 60 within 9 months of your certificate expiring. So you will either need to renew or pay for pre...

Genuine question because I have no knowledge of how the industry works. Why are Londons reservoirs at around 90% capacity where as the Penine ones are around 40%.

Less natural supply and fewer backup options

Why does it matter? £160k a week for 2 years is £16m. Is that any worse than paying £16m transfer fee for a much lesser player then £40k a week in wages for 2 years? All that matters is the Total Cost of Ownership

And resale value

Got this clarification from the Club -

As its out of a fans control if the ticket they have listed is purchased, we will reward the 5 points regardless.

If they are the words from the club their statement is ambiguous

It was 3 goals and 2 assists in the first 7. Should have been 4 and 3 had the Forest goal been allowed, and Luca scored an open net chance at Brentford. That’s a goal contribution either almost every game or every game, depending if you include the hypotheticals. He was playing very well, which is ...

taio

Well it was more than 4 or 5 games. Your take at the time was very accurate, he was a massive miss for us, as he was playing so well, and apart from the outstanding performance at Villa in December, he never rekindled that form. I personally think the talent is there, but either head and/or physica...

I seem to recall that being a very small run of games nearly two years ago and I’ve changed my opinion of Foster’s ability since then because, well, I’ve watched him play a number of times in those following 2 years. I think that’s more sane than those who still cling to those 4 or 5 games where he...

Not great stats

I agree I've always maintained that other clubs do suffer injuries as well I just question to what degree. I'm not quite sure how many times I have to concede that point it keeps getting mentioned as if I'm refusing to acknowledge that fact. The way you're going on, you'd think our club suffers mor...

The numbers piling up on the treatment table.

Which players are currently injured?

Totally irrelevant though to your point that if Amdouni is currently injured it should've been picked up through his medical...two years ago.

Would be pleased with Sam Johnstone

If Tchaouna gets injured in 2027 the club will have failed with their due diligence and medical processes in 2025

As I've already said it's not 1 in isolation but please keep focusing on this as it will assist in detracting. Why wouldn't people focus on Amdouni when you're suggesting any injury he has suffered now should've been picked up two years ago through the medical. You referred specifically to and focu...

It's not just 1 in isolation I really wish it was.

It would be amusing to see your attempt at explaining why any injury to Amdouni now ought to have been picked up in his medical two years ago.

taio

The inference that any injury to Amdouni should've been picked up in his medical two years ago is simply moronic

This should've been picked up in his medical

Support our players, it's a priority. Admittedly a bunch of keyboard-happy "fans" don't define a player's career, but how about showing a positive/supportive attitude towards LF and all our players. I'd say we need 2. Starting the season with just Barnes and Foster as options up front would be a di...

Sander Berge pxxxing about as a pretend fullback hitting the ball at the goal in a mad back pass cost us the game v Brighton. Muric should have saved it but it wasn't all his error

Saved it? The back pass and pace of it happen countless times every game. It rolled under his foot.

Yes, I think don’t think Checketts meant it in a way to cheat though :D He was discussing how women are developing athletically and how the standard is improving. I think they may think that’s a whole new avenue of TV and player trading revenue in future. I was offering another possibility of why A...

taio

I agree with this. Your last paragraph relates to my first above, and I agree with your points where opportunities exist. To add to your list, Checketts also mentioned women’s sport as areas they expected to provide growth opportunities, which may explain why Alan Pace takes our women’s team so ser...

Tbf, even Brighton didn't think he was going to become the player he is now: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cr7zyr5j329o "Having failed to make the grade, Brighton allowed him to join Coventry for a small fee in July 2021 after an unspectacular return of three goals in 19 Championshi...

He did but I mean his goal scoring record for a 25 year old was very average. That season when everyone was raving about him, he scored 13 goals from open play (from 49 championship apps). Doesn’t exactly scream out to me Guaranteed profit. This season will be a big indicator. He can quickly drop f...

taio

Like I said there’s absolutely no way of knowing. He’s got very similar stats to Sargent (if you take away Gyokeres penalties then Sargent record is considerably better, Sargent 43 goals in 106 apps compared to Gyokeres 31 goals in 127 apps). I have very little confidence in saying if we signed Sar...

We didn’t know there was profit though? If he came to us and stank out the premier league that season do you reckon he would have been sold for 70m? It’s not a guarantee that he would have made us a profit by any stretch We didn't know, no, but plenty of people on here recognised his talent, and th...

Time will tell whether he can step up to premier league level. As it stands right now he has a worst record at championship level than Sargent (plenty on here don’t fancy him). Sargent - 45 goals 106 apps Gyokeres - 41 goals 127 apps Funnily enough both the same age in there last championship seaso...

There is something to this though. Foster and Koleosho struggled in the championship because we are usually the team that dominates the game, thus the opposition in the championship have 10 men behind the ball most of the time. I think we will see both of them have good seasons this year. Both in m...

Wonder if Norwich would be open to a cash + Foster deal, we keep the cost down by a few million and also get Foster off the books. Win win. Personally think Sargent is a good player and could flourish under Parker in our system. Norwich are now being reported as frontrunners to sign Mathias Kvistga...

I understand all that perfectly well but it's reasonable to meet in the middle low end & high end you can't just accept ultra low & ultra high.

Not that I can recall but there's no way the fee was 15m

Foster cost best part of 12-15m and has 8 goals in 63 games. Sargent was one of the only strikers this season that caused our defence problems. Good age, 6ft1/2, both footed, I think at 16m it’s a no brainer. Certainly playing at a better level already than what the big lad at Genk people seem to b...

Some double standards going on at NU when they value him for £80m for him when City have offered £60m but won’t increase their £25 for Traff to our £40m

I reckon the deal for Trafford will go through soon for £30m. A feeling of inevitability.

Top man. Thought he'd make a good coach. He's absolutely rubbish infront of the camera though, might put him off becoming a manager.

Who cares what he does in front of a camera - if I remember right you banged this drum about Parker, and it's largely irrelevant in terms of managerial ability.

I thought he’d get us up given his previous record. He did. I thought wouldn’t be too exciting along the way. It wasn’t. I thought we could and should have won the league with the squad we had.

When our only recognised number nines are Ashley Barnes and Lyle Foster some posters are saying 'I wouldn't go anywhere near him'....sigh. I presume those who think that are also expecting us to sign a forward or forwards. There's no way we should take the risk if indeed he was a realistic target.

I definitely did miss the word record in my response. The impression interpreted was a singular injury & nothing plural.

I was clarifying that I missed the word record. Anyhow it's pedantic and doesn't alter the central point.

It's not just 1 injury that should be ignored he's 1 of them players you are just waiting for the next 1 & a lengthy 1 at that.
