Maybe he didn't come to sign for the Albion after all. What if, in some sort of Price-ean twist, he flew here to undergo some sort of cosmetic surgery?

I have a follow up to this involving a fez being stuck on his head and a kebab glued to his hand to try and further the illusion, but I'm worried that at some point I'd take it too far so I'm not going to write any of that.

Just like that?

I promise you this is true.

I had just finished reading your post, and on my TV, I'm half-watching an episode of 'Caught on Dashcam', and the commentator says 'like those Sharknado movies'.

What are the chances of that happening, eh?

Sid and the Sharknados said:

I've seen about 5minutes of the end of one of them.

David Hasslehoff was in it for some reason, and somebody chainsawed their way out of the belly of a shark.

Didn't feel any need to watch any more of them. I've got Godfrey Ho ninja films to watch if I want a "so bad it's good" vive.

I'd never heard of Godfrey Ho ninja films, but I'll file it away for future reference.
Do you think we ought to get back to Ferdi?

What I mean is we're not buying up the biggest and best like Blackburn did, or just buying a lot of players like Forest did. It feels like Bloom's masterplan has been leading up to this moment all along.

No, the West Hams and Villas, Leeds and Newcastle before them all spent big on established Prem players, and that did not go under the radar. I just watched Limeker, Shearer and Micah's podcast prediction for the 2024/25 season team by team, and they have not got a f***ing clue what is going on, no reasearch done whatsoever. Indeed, Richards spent all of his Albion segment laughing at how he had mispronounced Gross "Pascal Grow" (silent esses) before all 3 agreed ""yeah, midtable" and moved on swiftly - and more enthusiastically - to Chelsea.

I think this is the biggest assault on a Top 6 spot by a club outside the Big 10 ever in the Prem. But under the radar because it's all about the Top 6 clubs.

I think the proper gag is:
- Brighton have just signed a player from Celtic!
- Oh really?
- No, O’Riley.

Mike Small said:

Agree. I'm not being precious but the punditry on what's going on with us is abysmal. I quite like it that way though. We are going to finish above one of the 'top 8' as at absolute minimum and no-one is seeing this. Only Carragher seems to have mentioned Albion in any sense when he named Minteh as the player to watch this year.

'Quite high' is the disappointing answer.

Well, that's taken the wind out of my sails. There was me thinking I was onto something ethereal or other-worldly, but you bring me crashing back down to earth.

I feel crushed.
