I actually like CW. He’s passionate about his job. Sometimes too much but I like it. The game needs characters. Obviously someone giving him some stick in the stand behind the dugout :D I very much doubt Scott Parker, VK or even Stan would ever blast the ball into the Bob Lord at our own fans. If t...

I genuinely don't understand all of the "its not fair" snowflake journalists. Do they really expect Ipswich to rock up for 10 minutes. 5hit happens, the game was abandoned, get on with it. Is Henry Winter a Rovers fan? https://x.com/henrywinter/status/1971243837449478551?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwc...

The starting 11 didn't bother me really. It was the bench that showed our true intentions. To not have some of the big guns ready and waiting suggested we had very little interest in going through. There was no reason not to have a Cullen on the bench in case of injury. We then wouldn't have had to...

That “idea”, has Ridsdale all over it. Probably because even he knows, the Knobbers won’t finish top 6. Top 8? At a pinch.

Thought he would have too much on with the Osmajic case, obviously not.

Last night for me showed the difference between Foster and Broje. Foster has burst a gut in each of his 5 league games this season. Thats what we want to see as fans. If I was Parker, Broje would feature in the next two U21 games. Flemming is more than capable of deputising should Foster need to be...

Who cares we are out of the cup, we don't need distractions. Carabo Cup isn't our priority. We got some minutes in the legs and there were some decent performances. Cardiff are no duck eggs, they've retained the majority of their Championship squad and will no doubt "do a Birmingham" this season. Ca...

Got sent off after half an hour in his last league game after playing full 90 in opening 2 games Looks like he’s going to have wait to get place back After they signed Benjamin Pavardon on deadline day it looks like it will be a long wait.

I need a little more urgency from Foster. He's always late getting back onside, or getting back up.

Foster is everywhere, winning free kicks in our area, holding the ball up, plus an assist as with the rest of the side he's been excellent

It’s not the football that has got boring, it’s the wall to wall coverage. 3 carabao and 6 EL games on today and by HT I couldn’t get into any of them so watched Vera with Mrs T.

21 today

Amazing to think he is still only 21, still loads of time for his development, hopefully starting tonight in the Espanyol v Real Mallorca game.

The prem is far more athletic, there are some gash footballers in this league who are simply just quicker and stronger than anyone else so it works well and id include Lyle in that. Just needs to bag 10 goals.

WOW

The bet would normally be voided from his selection and the odds recalculated for the remaining games. I had it a few years ago where a bet won but one of the games was abandoned due to weather, I got paid out at the recalculated odds but a week later when the abandoned game was replayed the team I...

True, but it's not even primarily a personnel problem. It's how they've set it up. It's almost as if they've deliberately set it up to "rubber stamp" bad decisions instead of doing their best to get things right. This isnt just incompetent; it's moral cowardice. Referred decisions need to judged 'b...

Yes but that doesn't fairly represent my post, which was not really about individual players or what auditors do but how do we recoup some of the Eur128 million we have spent this summer..

Does that really require explanation?

billyhamilton82

Take responsibility for your own life and educate yourself.

billyhamilton82

Especially considering his start to the season, Foster is the main one.

We don't want him injured on international duty again, it definitely disrupted his club career last time.

Not sure about the source, but would be a strange one to make up

Al-Shabab have reached an agreement with English midfielder Josh Brownhill

https://x.com/Saudifutbol/status/1962954678293168210

Glad he's going abroad and not joining a rival.

Good luck to him.

billyhamilton82

Where does it say that? It doesn't, but I assumed Tresor would be taking the 25th spot, but it sounds like he is going out on loan. That leaves us with 24, unless of course Beyer is taking it but that definitely leaves us short on creativity in midfield, hence the suggestion we may bring in a free ...

billyhamilton82

Looks like we are expecting to bring in a free agent with Tresor and Delcroix still expected to go out on loan according to the Bexpress.

Quick question, are we allowed to sell in other windows that are still open?

I haven't watched sky sports on deadline day for years, but just caught half an hour. They try to make everything a big deal, but with social media being so far ahead of them, everything is old news, time to give up.

Mengi from Luton in talks with us. Central centre back, did well for them in the PL, but had a bad time with injuries since… Interestingly, a poster on here said he was set to sign for us a month or so ago, but received a bad tackle against Southend in a friendly, and Luton players weren’t happy (s...

billyhamilton82

Fair point. Whether it's Ramsey or not, as long as we have those qualities in the squad that's fine. Being a complete Tresor junkie, I hope he stays :D Personally I think Tresor will go as well because he's in a similar situation to Ramsey. He needs game time and we need someone who is ready and fi...

billyhamilton82

No offence to you specifically, but "is it a luxury we can afford" is a sentence used for just about anyone with creativity in the squad it seems. We need ball-winners, physical players and grafters of course, but sometimes you need a moment of difference. Edwards is much maligned recently, but at ...

billyhamilton82

Loan a good option for Ramsey to get much needed game time, with option to return in January.

New midfielder to replace Ramsey, possibly the previously linked Eriksen?

Although no rush today, as he's a free agent, or Brownhill returns

Could be a lot more movement than we expected today.

billyhamilton82

Aaron Ramsey out doesn’t leave much creativity if our inside rights / lefts are well marshalled. Especially with the others we expect to leave today too. So either Scott is too risk averse and it will cost him success (my fear) or we have another rabbit to come from the hat today (my hope). I won’t...

Massive day for Tresor, Benson and Delcroix. They all need to get away today to get playing time.

Sounds like Ramsey is going out on loan so one of Benson/Tresor may get a reprieve?

Hopefully we are bringing another 10.

Tresor Benson Delcroix missing out then from those fit and healthy Beyer and Amdouni not included through injury Darko and Obafemi already without squad nos. and excluded Banel and Agyei exempt According to reports Darko and Obafemi sold/ loaned respectively.

Some talk that if Liverpool sign Guehi then Joe Gomez could be allowed to go. I’d be all over that one, though it puts another injury prone player in the Tuanzebe position. We need physicality though. Linked earlier in the window. Not beyond the realms of possibility but would mean shifting Worrall...

Foster was superb.

Fully fit and you see the real player.

He's so unlucky with VAR, two already disallowed this season added to the Forest one last time around, there could be more but can't remember.
