I think it was most likely to have been about retaining players. The clubs ability to attract young talented players requires there to be some moving on of the current talent to make space in the squad for the new. To do it would mean upping the wages budget, not reaping the transfer value of...

More likely wage budgets, and ability to retain players and reject offers.

If we were making £120M profits from sponsorship, tickets, merchandise and broadcast money, we would have the right to feel let down at not upping the budgets. Player trading is not reliable income.

It is a strong squad, when all are fit, but also a lot of inexperience, and a well liked coach just vacated. It's not the easiest situation to take over, and some of the names mentioned as candidates, would likely see it as a gamble.

It's going to be something shit, Benny Hill Show or Top Gear. Should be something like Life on Earth, or This Is England.

Gross giving us the indication the game was over v Chelsea, Declan Rice's deeply depressed post match interview, making Liverpool look silly at the Amex.

It's a bit sad really, Leeds fans are so stuck in the past.

You could say that the short break between seasons, and the extra Europa games are the likely reasons, as they are the obvious differences in workload. Or you could say that these differences could have been compensated for with a less intense training schedule. Maybe training has been a bit...

I bet Dan Ashworth has his main cutlery, knives AND forks on the left, side knives and forks in the middle, soup spoons on the right. Desert spoons across the bottom, the sugar bowl has its own silver spoon, and teaspoons are kept with the bone China tea cups.

I know they are getting a bit giddy, but I do think he will be a great manager for them. I would love it if we were battling Palace for a Champions league spot next season, so long as we snag it and they don't quite make it.

In a reverse of the normal teasing of apprentices, two apprentices set up their supervisor for this one. One lad went to the supervisor, and told him he wanted him to have a word with the other one, who was using a table brick saw, (a large disc cutter that sprays water onto the blade to keep...

Can I have a pint of Piquette please?

I am peeved at the sanctions most of us would face if caught passing an away ticket to a mate, personally I think you should be able to pass an away ticket to another member, once or twice a season, with a small admin fee, but have to declare it, and no loyalty points are awarded to either of...

Is it fair that Tony Bloom always somehow manages to get a ticket in the away end for Brentford away?
