Whats the interest rate ?

Tufty

Bournemouth....worthy of a separate thread perhaps...but how on earth do they do it ? 2nd in the Prem with attendances of 11,000. Im afraid im well out of touch with how football is financed these days. Doesn’t Fairplay rules or whatever it's called prevent you from spending more than a certain perc...

Tufty

Great watch...thanks for posting.

Broja ...I just dont get £20m tag. Based on what exactly? Add to that he does seemes to be out injured a lot.

Sonne...less worried about.

Broja Chelsea picked our pockets

That's what I was thinking the minute we signed him. I thought surely you have to have something on your CV to warrant £20m, or however much it was, , other than "grew up with the Chelsea Academy " and "get injured a lot".

Seems not.

"The way the manager plays - the formation, the system and the vision they see - that’s what really attracted me,” Brownhill said. “The atmosphere has been amazing since I’ve been here - members of staff, the kitman, everyone, the fans as well. It’s been really great." Phew...and here's me thinking ...

My best mate died at 57. Also a life long clarets fan. A very personal thing for me. I appreciated his addition to the annual turf memorial in January....but im with clarettony ...to impose it upon thousands unknown to him is unnecessary.

Tufty

Anyone saying they wouldn’t take that deal in his circumstances are deluded. Good luck to him, we’d all do the same. No they wouldn't. You obviously would but to say those that wouldn't are therefore deluded is incredibly narrow minded. The premise of what you're saying is that regardless of how ri...

Another thing is to get rid of slow motion analysis. Slow motion creates a wierd alternative view to reality. Also, what i dont get is when a ref makes an unbiased, sincere onfield call and then the VAR team ask him to review it and he does so 8 times on the monitor. Because he then doesn't immediat...

Technology has improved sports such as Tennis, Rugby and Cricket. It’s ruined Football. Couldn't agree more. But the situation with football and VAR is that nature of the game as it is doesn't allow VAR to compliment it. Take offside for example. There's a definition that presumably says (paraphras...

Tufty

A bit of a pointless topic so apologies in advance...but the thought came to me today...what if we had domestic rules that stipulated that every club could only have 1 overseas player and the rest had to be a British Isles national (ie. Ireland included) ? Would our interest be less piqued ? Would a...

Tufty

I wouldn't be too critical. All things being equal this is how it should be. Multi-million pound world class players against a small town club that are hopeful of a result rather than expectant. I was rather hoping we'd get United on an off day but it aint happening. They're playing well and stiflin...

Tufty

Absolutely mullered. Pretty scary stuff. United should be out of sight. Kind of dreading the 2nd half cos if the same pattern continues this could easily end up being a thrashing.

But then again, SP might make a couple of astute changes and it may no longer be so one sided !

Tufty

Theres really only 2 things required for a good society....
Respect and the right attitude.

Tufty

Crisps and beer.

Tufty

I'm 63 and have always lived off crisps and beer....is that an ultra processed diet... #worried

Tufty

Shows you how much out of touch i am....I have never even heard of 8 of the players in this squad! 🤣 Of the ones ive heard of the names of Henderson and Rashford surprise me. What also is interesting (in neither a good or bad way but just an observation) is the number of non-traditional anglo-saxon ...

Tufty

But it doesn't matter what 'we' would do. There is no right answer. It's a free choice. Just for balance, if I had ever had an opportunity to make a huge amount of money, legally, honestly, over a short period of time, over a maximum of 5 years, I might have taken that opportunity, especially at th...

Tufty

Ok, hands up....if you had everything going for you in life: a job you were happy in and enjoyed doing; no money worries for the rest off your life; a healthy and loving family; and taking home, let's for arguments sake, say £25,000 pay a week after tax. (Something I normally took home after a year)...

Tufty

If Brownhill is being offered the chance to earn 10m over 2 years tax free he would be crazy to not accept it. People need to accept for footballers it is their job. If it is good enough for Ronaldo, Nunez, Mane, Neymar, Benzema and many others then it is good enough for Josh So earning money trump...

Nothing stays the same ... things evolve. We've moved on from 10,000 fans all ******* up against a gents urinal built for 20 people. Well done Mr Pace for your bold move.

Tufty

It's not a bad idea imo. Makes membership of the all-singing BFC CFS all the more exclusive. I reckon given time they will be the BFC equivalent of the Crystal Palace Tifosi.... and it will become a much more special place to be. Stop bloody moaning !

Tufty

I know I'm swimming against the tide here but I quite like the new arrangement. I accept that there's an inevitable bottleneck around the club shop but unless your house is on fire or your wife's about to give birth there's no need to dash off at the final whistle. Chill out and admire the view of t...

Tufty

A couple of incidents to get a little bit excited about in that half...Fosters disallowed goal and a golden chance spurned by Anthony. Apart from that the rest has already been erased from memory. Hopefully a better 2nd half awaits and we're offered something a bit more entertaining and exciting.

Tufty

Not a fan of this 159 page transfer topic !! Cant see the wood for the trees. But thouhts on Broja ..... wtf ! Its like throwing hoops onto bottles at the fairground. A futile exercise in wishful thinking. You'd have thought after Amdouni we'd have learnt something. 8 goals in 76 games. Massive inju...

What a merry-go-round supporting a football team is.

Enlightenment is knowing when to get off. Good luck for the season. I wish you all tranquility and happiness.

This scenario of crumbling roads is something that we will all have to live with for decades if not longer. Change has to come from the top and there just isnt the will to make it happen. This norm of **** surfaces is too entrenched in the mindset of those in charge. Currently on a 3 week road trip ...

Tufty

Well done Ben ! Love his attacking style...old school. And a Brit (pseudo Irishman ) to boot !

Tufty

Apologies..didn't see the existing thread.

Tufty

Egan-Riley on the bench .... but the 2 fullbacks for Germany interestingly called Collins and Brown !

England 2-1 up.

Tufty

Could've been worse.....The Armitage Shanks Stadium for example.

Tufty

Penalty along with a Red all day long. Well done ref for having the bottle to see it as it was and follow through with the rules. Takes a brave man. Chapeau.

Tufty

BC yet to have a shot let alone a shot on target.

2 touches in the Leeds box....compared to 43 from Leeds in the BC box.

Tufty

Was a great move and sublime pass from Piroe.

Tufty

Leeds simply too good for Bristol. I'll be surprised if BC can even manage a shot on target, let alone equalise.

Leeds to win by 4 at least.

Tufty

They're certainly a very good side. Absolutely all over Bristol City at the moment. Making them look more like a League 2 side rather than one vying for a play off place. With respect to consistently good performances over a season I wouldn't disagree with the viewpoint. But they didn't have to buil...

Yes, it is reported on BBC news.

Tufty

Nerves must be getting to us. That was not a good team performance. 2 good goals and a vital win though. Trafford mom by a country mile.

Tufty

Just seen the replay of our goal...that has to be "assist " of the year from Anthony. Brilliant !

Tufty

Parker is under pressure here. Do nothing and hope everyone gets over their 1st half hangover ? Or make some changes to try and influence a more positive performance ? This is why he gets paid the big bucks. Not sure what the right course of action is but he'll be slaughtered either way if we get be...

Tufty

We've got out of jail there. Hopefully the reset button can be pressed at half time and we start playing a whole lot better than that.

Tufty

Is Edwards p*ssed ?

Tufty

Does anyone remember the old Derby pitch at the Baseball ground in the 70s ? Although tonight pitch was crap by today's standards it was still bowling green-esque compared to back then.

Tufty

Told you so...0-0. You just sense it early on.

Tufty

This game has 0-0 written all over it. We're too good defensively to let them score...and we don't seem to have what it takes to create any chances. Fleming's 1st half chance to change the perspective and, after brilliant control , completely fluffed it with a virtual back pass to the keeper.

Tufty

If his injury time free kick at home against Norwich in the last game of the season had been an inch lower we'd have snuck into the play offs, he'd have been a hero and who knows what else may have followed.

Tufty

Forget about the private jet...he'd drive himself on the bus.
