Totally agree. Been an eye opening experience for sure. Without wishing to make this a thread that’s not about football The NIMBY mindset in the country is absolutely killing it as a decent place to live. Just one very small example of how it impacts mundane things. In the town I live people...

In a very on brand situation for us this season. Tom Lockyer was close to making a return to action for under 21s this week, but injured his ankle in training and requires surgery. God knows what we do in training - the past year ive never seen a side pick up so many injuries from "training"

Not seen the Marquinhos thing. I see we have been linked with Christ Makosso who is a centre half in Belgium. Seems right footed, we really need some left footed players so not to sure about that. And then Bakinson from Wycombe, which id be surprised if actually true as hes sub player for Wycombe.

Derby at home for us tomorrow. The away form is so bad that every home game has become must win and this is no different. I think Hashiokas performance at LCB last week is what has sparked this temporary signing of Pieters, although id be surprised if he played right away. Absolutely damning...

We’ve signed Erik Pieter on a short term deal. I assume because he’s left footed and we just need a warm body with a reasonable left footed to get us through the Christmas period. We had him training in the summer. Really highlights just how poor our recruitment has been, we are having to sign...

Final planning permission granted for the stadium last night. No more applications or court proceedings to go just need to get the thing built now! Some good news in an indifferent at best season for us. As someone who hasn’t paid much attention to it in the past, the planning process has been...

Whenever the criticism of Bayo ramps up just that additional notch he seems to go and score a couple of goals to stop it. One of those streaky infuriating strikers it seems, not unlike Adebayo in that respect.

Very very harsh. Karl Robinson seemed to be there for years by just getting them close enough to being promoted without actually doing it. Buckingham puts them over the top, they obviously are fighting to stay up and they sack him for it! He’s the sort of manager I’d expect us to look at if...

Am not a reactionary usually but…yes and the fact Edwards hasn’t come out and give him a public bollocking had annoyed me too. We were never getting back into the game anyway so I guess I shouldn’t be annoyed but it’s just the fact that Walsh shouldn’t even be here if we had our act together...

Totally agree Oaky. 2 reds this season coming off the bench. Ill disciplined selfish and not very good. He is the epitome of everything that has been wrong with the recruitment. I know you aren’t necessarily a fan but the fact he gets on ahead of a genuine club legend in Pelly is a disgrace...

2-0 down at half time. Very very predicatable, we are just completely non-competitive away from home. Barely capable of controlling a game or being able to put a coherent attack together and just look like a lower league side going away in a cup game mostly. Just rubbish

Zero chance we get 15m for Mengi. He’s absolutely tanked his value with his play this season and the injury makes it even worse

It is strange as he’s a club legend too. You’d think he would have a bit more leeway with the fans too.

We won and actually played pretty well I thought, certainly better than the weekend draw with Swansea and even the win v Hull both of which had some fortune. Played Brown, Adebayo and Morris all together and gave us a much greater momentum up front and they caused a fair amount of problems for...

We have Adebayo and Morris so probably 2 of our better players, although questionable this season so we are strong there but no one is playing well right now. Taylor has become a bit of a flash point between the fans and Edwards. Supporters want to see him given a chance given we aren’t...

Teden Mengi apparently picked up a long term injury in training and will be out for a few months at least. Have to wonder what we do in training with all the injuries we pick up outside of games. Mengi could have been one of the best defenders at this level if he had applied his premier league...

1-1 and the weather makes it difficult to assess but Swansea were much the better side and played some good stuff despite the conditions and should have won it. We are just a really poor team, can barely keep the ball, very limited options for the player in possession and it’s just channel...

Swansea at home for us today. Back to back home games coming up with Stoke here Tuesday, desperately need to build some momentum Weather is going to be a factor and with some of calamitous defending I do worry.

I’m pretty sure he got booked after the final whistle in the game here. Those sites like FotMob and flash score often miss those sort of bookings but the local journos and stattos keep a better track

Agree on the football structure side of things. One of the things Nathan Jones doesn’t get a lot of credit for that I think he should do is he made that side of the club much more professional than it was under John Still. He built on the spirit with modern methods. We have since lost our edge...
