Disappointing goal to concede. I think both Webster and Sanchez could have done better with it. That said I've been impressed by Everton, they've given us no space at all to play in and close us down really quickly. Potter's got some thinking to do.

For everyone getting antsy about one of the Everton fans talking about our defense being susceptible: a) For the first 18 months of Potter's reign, it was. C'mon it was b) Their opinion is probably based on our games at Goodison where we have been dogshit. Our defensive performance up...

I like a good transfer saga. It's a pretty fun way to while away the occasionally dull summer months. The Vicente and Ali J threads were great. Unfortunately(from a whiling away the hours p.o.v) the club are very tight lipped over their transfer dealings nowadays so we're left with absolute...

1st quote: you have absolutely nailed understatement there. 2nd quote: you can add Man United 99 in there too. Giggs, Beckham, Scholes, G.Neville, P. Neville and Butt. Although Phil Neville and Nicky Butt are maybe a little lucky to be put in the same bracket as Messi, Iniesta, Lahm etc.

Never heard of him so I had to google. I'm not sure he's in quite the same boat as Karbownik who we spent several million on and is going to Olympiakos rather than Whitehawk but I get your point. It's a ruthless business.

Many times! At least on here we have the chance to read what we've written and then delete it. Real life is much worse...on too many occasions to count I've launched into a story only to realise a third of the way through that it's not only an incredibly dull story but I'm an even worse story...

I'd be astonished if it was a loan to buy. He's been with us less than a year. It seems way too soon to cut our losses.

Yes but it would be lovely for him to bow out on his own terms with his head held high wouldn't it?

If true, he's going to struggle to be taken seriously. I've also just realised that it's the 30th anniversary of Nevermind's release this year. Wikipedia tells me it was released on September 24th. If I was more cynical I'd be putting two and two together there.

I'm tempted to say it's money grabbing. As Brovion has said he has recreated that photo several times for official Nevermind anniversaries so why has he now suddenly decided that it's not only ruined his life but child pornography?

It's so sad seeing what's unfolding at Forest. Hughton is such a decent man that it pains me to see him struggle so much.

Yeah, all good points. I was thinking Veltman ahead of Duffy assuming that Lamptey was fit to play RWB. I've realised my error...

I think Veltman starts ahead of Duffy, but Duffy ahead of Burn.

I think Hugo Rune and Blue Valkyrie are keeping that particular flame alive. I've kind of assumed he's dropped down the club's pecking order as there never seems to be any mention of him other than his name being added to lists of defenders.

Why? We are arguably better than the three promoted teams, Palace, Newcastle, Southampton and Burnley. If we finish above them, and I think we have a fair chance to, we'd be 13th. Then it's only one place more. Don't get me wrong, I'd be delighted to finish 12th, I certainly don't expect to...

I'm taking the Naylor and Owen quotes as a positive. They're not denying anything. We're clearly interested and the deal is moving along. I fully expect to sign him, just a question of when.

I reckon the reason why Burnley never get a player sent off is the same reason why they rarely get penalties. They play like it's the 80's so the refs ref them like it's the 80's. That's my thoroughly researched view* and I'm sticking with it. *by thorough I obviously mean watching them play...

I think he's looked best centre midfield but he also did a really good job as stand in wingback. I'm intrigued by seeing him as part of a back three. He has the size to deal with the physical side of things, he has the composure on the ball, passing range and ability to drive forward with the...

That's really interesting. where did you hear that? Moder seems a player capable of playing anywhere.

Steele Tsongui Veltman Roberts Karbownik Mwepu Moder Alzate Richards Zeqiri Connolly(provided Maupay will be good for Saturday) Edit: I can't find Roberts on the club website. Is he out on loan again? I thought he was on the bench against Watford? I've also spotted that several of the...
