[Albion] Jake Humphrey - what a tool

strong and stable with me, or...
It was just odd how opinionated he was. Even Lineker, a great player with an astute enough mind plays the neutral host on matters he may clearly know as much or more about than the pundits to which he is addressing. Quite where Humphries felt the need to get quite so worked up and animated was beyond me really.
Great to be talking shite about football again though, suddenly the doom and the gloom of the world is in the background as we focus in on a Humphries post match hosting debacle. Beautiful.
Always been a bit of a knob and to argue with two ex pros about what happens during a game is bizarre.
Is it time for us to start RTing that tweet again yet?

We’ve got them soon, wait until then. Just incase
Norwich fans are a weird breed, on another forum I use a few people were talking about how they’re pretty much a waste of a PL place and show absolutely no ambition once they get in the league. A week passes and they sign Kabak & Normann on loan - the resident Norwich fan comes back all bullish, genuinely believing that this proves everyone was wrong about their lack of ambition. Two loan signings. In a window they sold their best best player. You couldn’t write it.

Certainly more than the zero they’ve managed.

I guess that depends on how pathetic people are feeling
'come on everybody let's get all pissy knickers with the 'famous' man who was really happy when his team got promoted'.

I don’t think the most active prem club in the transfer market can be accused of lack of ambition

Killjoy!
Usually - yes.
But Shirley you can't see the 'joy' in dragging up one shite tweet from 4 (?) years ago, made by a poor man's Mark Pougatch, on the one day he was actually happy and had an audience.

Careful now.
When Connolly is lifting the Champions League trophy, in 6 seasons time, you'll get all the pearl clutchers replying to that post:-
'who's shit now?'
As they sit back in the chair with the knowing smile of a job well done.

I was being facetious, I agree with you actually. It was a poor comment from JH but on the whole I can forgive him as I quite like the feller and he isn't the worst presenter imo.
Oh cool, I get the first 'holier than thou' post from NSC's resident sanctimonious **** today.

Why oh why oh why?
He's quitting football to become a cleaner at UEFA?

Of course they can, if a Premier League club signed 30 non-league players you wouldn’t be praising them for showing ambition, would you? Quality > Quantity. You’ve sold your best player for £35,000,000, lost Skipp too and whilst you’ve signed 11 players when you break it down it’s absolute shite.
2 loans from last season converted to permanent transfers - don’t improve your team.
2 loans with an option to buy - presumably not activated when/if you go down.
2 loans from the big 6. I don’t think a loan with no option/obligation to buy can ever be ambitious
So that leaves; Rashica, Tzolis, Sargent, Melou & Gunn. Rashica & Tzolis both look decent signings on paper, don’t think either of them will set the league alight but both of them are sensible signings. I don’t know a single thing about Melou if I’m honest and Sargent/Gunn are both back-up who will hardly start this season. There’s 11 players there but let’s be honest, it’ll be a miracle if Norwich stay up with arguably a weaker starting XI than they had last season
