There is zero chant of him signing a new deal then going on loan to the Championship.

Bart - 20m Dunk - 0 Webster - 20m Hinsh - 0 Estupinan - 15m Baleba - 15m?? Ferdi - 25m Wiefer - 25m Mitoma - 5m?? Welbeck - 0 Rutter - 40m 165m, so not exactly bargain-basement stuff. Although if we'd had our best defender and attacker available, that'd have reduced the total by about 30m.

Yes, the narrative that Webster's error turned Cole Palmer into a world-class player is a load of bollocks. We'd have lost that game regardless.

Whilst I don't want to give solace to a Palace fan, new signings rarely hit the ground running. It usually takes a few months to get going and show their value regardless of their transfer fee and experience. Of all the succesful signings we've made over the last few years, there's few I can...

Fab is young (has it been mentioned?) and therefore less likely to be stuck in his ways. I’ve only seen the MOTD highlights, but even from that sample it’s clear that our back line needs give a few yards. I’d be amazed if he, the coaches and senior players don’t tweak things before next week...

Depends if Chelsea face PSR sanctions. I have a feeling that they’ll be looking at the outcome of the City case quite nervously.

The 400m hurdler off of the 80s?

That was our first season in the Premier League when they had the De Boer experiment and sacked him after about 5 games. Hodgson did a decent job in turning them around but I think the significant factor was that Zaha missed the first 7 games that season. Once he was back they started scoring...

And that team was absolutely flying at the Potter left. It must be incredibly rare for a manager to inherit a team on such a good run and full of confidence. Hurdler certainly didn’t.

Fulham and then a few days later Roma?

If you believe the reports, it’s next month. Although it’s 800K gross, so that’s a mere 425K net. This tallies with other reports that he’s pocketing 10m over 2 years for only 6 months work.

Yes. Although, there are some people for whom winning the lottery is not a good thing and they end up pissing it all away on drink, drugs, cars, etc. I'm willing however to predict that Potter's 10m is tucked away in a diversified porfolio of investments and earning him a very tidy passive income.

I'd imagine that being financially secure for life in your mid 40s and being able to wait for the right opportunity to come along whilst picking and choosing the occasional bit of punditry would be a good quality life, to be honest.

I certainly hope not. But it’s possible that the whole outcome will come down to a few thousand people in Pennsylvania who aren’t normally particularly politically engaged. Who knows how motivated they will be to vote for or against Trump in 6 weeks!

It’s just a gut feeling, but I reckon that the 7-8 week period between that debate and election day is long enough for swing voters to forget what a disaster Trump was.

Polling numbers are still tighter than a gnat’s chuff. I have a gut feeling that Harris needs to land a few more big punches and that if she doesn’t, the polling bounce she got from the debate win will swing back on Trump’s favour by the end of October. It’s hard to see how she might do this...

Actually that’s LOLs. The bloke who runs the Albion Roar Twitter/X is a pompous bellend.

In this case, the lino must've judged that they weren't offside, no? The lino delays flagging in case the potentially offside player scores from that passage of play, in which case it's checked by VAR anyway, and if he doesn't then he flags. I recorded the game yesterday but have only had the...

Maybe, but I reckon that timing is something that's probably more of a natural instinct than something that can be coached. Frank Lampard certainly had it and as a result was one of the, if not the, highest scoring Premier League midfielders of his generation.

No card was given, so it does leave the door open for a retrospective red card. I wouldn't hold your breath though.
