As will we be Harty. She doesn't have to be a regular on here, or a STH to be "part of the family" so to speak. We have stories on here about the friends and relations of people on here that we "know" from their Albion exploits, and by association, we pull for them and do what we can to help...

Similar thing happened in my house last year. Been knocking my daughter for watching it, but the previous year she'd taken to just disappearing up to her room and watching it on her own. I thought nah, don't like that, and settled down to watch it with her last year. Within a week, my son, and...

Honestly mate, if anyone is actually listening to everything we say in my house all day, then good luck to them. I pity the fool who has that job, really. I would imagine most who do that job, list "watching grass grow" as things they enjoy doing in their spare time..

You are probably right, but a £15m signing for Man Utd is nothing special. That's the level of investment they put into guys coming into their development squad. He could be lost into the massive Man Utd machine, only showing his face for League Cup games with the other kids, early rounds of...

Buy an Alexa, you'll never look back once she's in your life.

I know we all want to believe every gamble TB makes pays off, but that just isn't realistic, everyone makes mistakes, even Sir Alex Ferguson signed Djemba Djemba. Percy Tau looked like a talent, does look like a talent, and a bit like buying land before you get planning permission, there was a...

I'd be delighted if we signed him, as he looks like exactly the sort of player we should be in for if we think we should be moving up this division, and playing better football. The way he runs with the ball is quite extraordinary at times. Obviously, I;m not saying he's THIS good, but players...

Who knows what get put into the small print of contracts these days. In principle you are correct, but I'm sure this gets discussed, at least to give the player an idea of where he is in the pecking order at a club. IF we are saying "yes, we expect you to be in the 1st Team squad from from the...

Indeed. I have been watching him quite a bit this season, and been following his progress for a while. Looks absolutely FULL of potential to me. You don't ever get Player of the Year by having a bad season. The guy has pace to get him out of trouble, but has been relying on that less and less...

Sadly it's inevitable with the riches and greed that exists in the game. The authorities haven't wanted to deal with it because .... a) once you scratch beneath the surface, you will find worse and worse goings on. b) they don't want to expose the game as being corrupt and immoral. c) they may...

THIS. Absolutely this.

Blimey, you must live in a very passive World if you think I'm getting in the least bit "irate" about it. Funny how the written World word can sometimes completely fail to convey the correct mood. I find it somewhat bizarre, and yet in keeping with how overblown modern football takes the...

No, we're not better than that, haven't been for a while now. Next step, will be to "launch" the new kit at out last home game of the previous season. We haven't quite gone to that yet, but we'll be there soon, I'm sure.

What a load of #ModernToss When did clubs start thinking their "new kit" was something akin to a movie trailer? When you're ready for me to see the new kit, show me a nice clear picture of it, and I can go, "Ok, that's us then, I will be able to recognise us next season. Thanks" Spoiler Alert...

Btw, I fully expect to be banned for that, and I won't appeal it, it's fair enough.

Sadly, I'm in the category of "would love to hate him, but I do tend to be either nodding approvingly whenever he speaks, or howling with delight that he's speaking so open and honestly. I feel dirty, but it's true, I like the bloke .... there, I've said it.

Yes it does, but sadly teh crazy nature of the League also means we are 19th out of 20 in terms of wages, and that smacks of relegation fight. Incredible we never spend any time in the bottom 3, we must have had one helluva manager ....

This. That is one of the things that made it so special. To see a WHOLE MATCH, every last detail and to see it LIVE was just incredible. That was an event in itself, even before all the pomp and circumstance. The whole build up was about getting to know these players in more depth, finding out...

That is a very good point. I don't remember anyone belittling it when we were in the SF, only doing so retrospectively to suit the narrative of "Hughton Out". But to the overall point, it's TV, the clubs themselves and the relative wealth of other competitions that has killed the FA Cup.
