    Davy Propper: Record midfield signing from PSV - OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED

    Good call....particularly as we are likely to be playing versions of 4-5-1 most of the season.

    Davy Propper: Record midfield signing from PSV - OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED

    .....or meeting up with Alex Pritchard, just for an overview on the two clubs.

    Aleš Matějů SIGNS August 4th

    Leave the poor soul alone, they clearly are going through the adolescent stage of football supporting. When you are a little bit unsure of yourself. When you are not sure you can hold your head up in company and declare your strong allegiance to one club, you take the easy route and cover two...

    What can't you get on with that everyone else can?

    Kissing both cheeks, man hugging. and this new vigorous handshake by young men. When and where the hell did they come from? Can't stand any of them. When greeting a female, it is strictly one peck on one cheek. As for being bear hugged by another bloke....its ghastly and makes me very...

    What can't you get on with that everyone else can?

    I know the feeling....you are watching some talent show and an individual is singing quite well. Then without warning, they break into rap and the audience goes mad, as if Elvis Presley has just walked in. After standing quite normally, they are suddenly stomping around with fingers splayed and...

    The Guardian's Assessment - From nowhere to the Premier League

    Lets be honest, very few players get past 20 goals. There is a dearth of top strikers in the PL. They mostly play elsewhere, for better teams. We need goals from all round the team. Watford and Burnley survived with 40 and 39 goals respectively last season. Stoke and Saints got 41 and WBA got...

    The Guardian's Assessment - From nowhere to the Premier League

    There are posters on here making out that the other 19 teams in the PL are world beaters. I'm sorry but the overall quality of the division is not getting better. The leading clubs are getting stronger, the gap is widening and they are finding it even easier to roll over lesser sides on a...

    The Guardian's Assessment - From nowhere to the Premier League

    I didn't see any shortage of that last season. We ripped teams apart with pace on the break, particularly out wide and to say our players lack strength is doing a number of them a grave mis-service.

    The Guardian's Assessment - From nowhere to the Premier League

    There is a lot to be said for going up with momentum. Reading stormed that division and started that top flight campaign brimming with confidence. They had a tight, well managed squad with no prima donnas. Their big mistake was not investing at Xmas in their second season. Madejski pulled in the...

    Brighton: Three ways they can survive in the Premier League...

    Agreed but I believe that Hughton has learnt a lot from his time at Norwich and he will know that trying to sit on leads at PL level is inviting trouble. Counter attacking at pace, with width, is the answer. Not all defenders at the top level are lightning quick.

    Brighton: Three ways they can survive in the Premier League...

    Well they are the world's foremost authority on all things football, so we need to take notice of them.

    Apart from all that....pretty accurate in all other respects?

    Steven Alzate signed from Leyton Orient

    I've said the same about Messi for years. Its just a shame he is so short. Think what he could have achieved if he had been over 6' tall. My Dad was the same, always saying what a pity it was about the lack of height of Banks and Springett and Bonetti and Shilton and Clemence. Imagine how good...

    Steven Alzate signed from Leyton Orient

    I've checked the video again and they seem to be moving in the right direction and with the right co-ordination.

    Harry down to the bare bones already?

    Signs from Portman Road not too encouraging either, so an Ipswich, Brum and Burton relegation treble on the cards.

    Harry down to the bare bones already?

    Typical ' Arry '. Pay over the odds for a decent but error prone keeper, when you already have a solid custodian at the club and then start moaning that you need more money to spend.

    Ed Bassford - Lord Bracknell

    Although I never knew him to speak to, he had a stature that made you want to nod your head in recognition when you saw him at BHA games. Through his efforts over the years and his regular postings on here, you felt you knew him and would like to have known him. Our football club has been...
