I can totally buy that we left an agent in the dark about no longer being interested in/able to go through with a mooted deal as well, and then this version of the story gets leaked out from that. We'd been linked with him for a few windows in a row iirc, so presumably conversations had been...

Biden wasn't the nominee, and Trump has literally called Dem voters garbage repeatedly. I don't think it made even a tiny ripple in the water in the grand scheme of things either. Governments all over the place that were in power during the pandemic, and the inflation spike that followed, have...

I remember a certain manager who had a strong start to the season with QPR…

He only survived long enough to get that bespoke role under Nuno because he was cheap, too. I remember season after season of us posting on here in despair about how he was the turd that just wouldn't flush, but it was obvious that the reason he wasn't going anywhere was because the club clearly...

Always love it for a manager when the “get fucked” thread starts popping off before a match has even finished. What else is there to say? Get rid, and hope for someone who isn’t just as out of their depth.

I *sniff* can't think *sniff* of a reason *sniff* at all. How odd.

She's been lobbing grenades at them for ages, she hates them as much as they hated her, but they only indulged her over and over again because they wanted to throw a sop to transphobes. However, I have to give her props - all wings of the party can finally come together as one to celebrate no...

That will be the point where feelers start going out to possible replacements (including seeing if Mendes can do us any favours) but agreed, they won’t go for it that suddenly after such a big PR push this week. I’d hope they were already doing it but I think they believe their own spin.

Yep, never ever going to happen until at least some kind of actual deal with the EU like Norway or Switzerland. The bureaucratic faff of stuff having to go through two border checks to get from Ireland to France on its own makes it a non-starter, just as we'd probably never build the Channel...

The thing is… I think there is a case for a rail tunnel from Holyhead to Dublin. London to Dublin alone is an extremely high-frequency flight corridor, and it would plug Ireland into the wider European freight network. The geography under the sea bed isn’t that bad either, and the distance isn’t...

Probably our best player tonight, which is damning.

Lima RB, Doherty LB it is. God, you love to see it.

Yeah I actually really like the "extra" extra time - seeing the board go up with ~10 minutes at the end rather than two or three seems to give chasing teams an extra boost, presumably because it actually feels like enough time to work towards an equaliser/winner. Turns into a kind of de facto...

Not to get myself on a list, but going for him while golfing was always the easiest option and I'm surprised it took this long. Golf courses are piss easy to sneak into, there's cover everywhere while still offering line of sight over hundreds of metres - just dig in for a day or two before he...

This is fair - the results so far have hidden how close some of the games have been - but at the same time that is kind of exactly the problem. You can’t rely on edge-case luck in this league. Teams that succeed at the highest level (it’s a cliche, but it’s true) make their own luck - they...

RE: the bolded part here, I don't think it's that much of a mystery: O'Neil isn't a particularly good coach, and the more time he has with the squad the more that becomes a problem. Lopetegui is a good quality coach, he came in and introduced discipline to a shaky squad - it wasn't necessarily...

Just want to take credit for jinxing it, you're welcome.

Missed the first ~25 mins but clearly I missed the worst of it, this has been an extremely comfortable performance so far even if still not exactly what I'd call "assured".

How many ex-Wolves players has that ever happened with before?

🤦‍♂️ Of course, own half rule. Ignore me.
