Ed I read yesterday somewhere Atalanta were miffed at the whole Juve/ koopmeiner situation and would gladly let him go to another league if the offer was matched and we were interested. Bunk?
{Ed002's Note - Someone is teasing the gullible Liverpool fans. He is moving to where he wants to go - Juventus.}

Boy are you a patient man ed002. I would have lost it a while back personally.
Thank you!
16 Jul 2024 21:55:39
I think I recall square tomato saying Trent was basically signed up? Any update on this? Losing the “local boy future captain”, etc for free would be harsh for the state of the club.
1.) 16 Jul 2024 23:12:03
As far as I know there’s no new deal in place and from what Eds say his agent is being asked to run his contract down by Madrid so he can move there. Get a big sign on fee. That would be lose lose for Liverpool so we need to sort this either way. I don’t for a minute think Trent would want to leave that way but I always forget there’s not much loyalty left in the game.
2.) 16 Jul 2024 23:22:26
Just give him coutinho’s number.
3.) 16 Jul 2024 23:43:10
I thought Square Tomato had the inside info about Joe Gomez, not Trent.
4.) 17 Jul 2024 01:14:40
There's no loyalty left in the game but I think it works both ways for both the fans and the players. There have been tonnes of posts both on here and on social media about how people would be more than happy to sell Trent. But now that there are rumours that Trent is open to leaving, there suddenly isn't any loyalty left in the game.
Personally, I don't blame Trent for wanting to leave, even on a free since he is well within his rights to do so. He signed a contract and honoured it until the end. However, in the event that Trent leaves in a free, the people at the club should take a hard look at themselves as to how they let that happen. Those are the people that should be held accountable, not Trent.
5.) 17 Jul 2024 05:21:28
Dracred I agree w you 100%. We haven't learned our lessons from the past w the likes of Gini, Can, etc. holding all the cards. Allowing Virgil Mo and Trent to get into the last year is short sightedness at best. Let's see how it plays out.
6.) 17 Jul 2024 06:10:17
Dracered, exactly my thoughts as well.
I would be really sad if he leaves. He is class. Fans will miss him when he's gone.
7.) 17 Jul 2024 08:12:46
Yes the club is so well run that it makes plenty of sense to let your best players run their contracts down and go for nothing, replace them with people on a fifth of the wage. Great club management.
8.) 17 Jul 2024 08:14:19
Yep loyalty only comes into it when it suits us, for what its worth i don't think he'll leave.
9.) 17 Jul 2024 08:28:46
What a lot of nonsense. The club can’t force a player to sign. We could make him captain and our highest paid player but neither of those guarantee his signature if he wants to leave at the end of his contract.
I’d say it would be an incredible move by the club if they managed to get Trent to sign rather than join Real Madrid who right now must be the most exciting team to join in the world whether we like that or not.
10.) 17 Jul 2024 08:40:45
Allison, Trent, VVD will all stay. I think the one to leave will be Salah.
11.) 17 Jul 2024 09:39:37
FSGfleecingus, I think you need to learn how to read first instead of just assuming things. Nowhere is it in this thread where it is mentioned that we are a well run club. In fact, I mentioned that we should take a look at ourselves for letting our top players reach the end of their contracts with no solution in the first place.
12.) 17 Jul 2024 10:17:59
Mbappe is literally leaving for free…. it happens.
We could just go and sell Trent now in fear that we lose him for free? Or we could work in good faith to sign a new agreement and then see what happens next season?
People seem to correlate an outcome with intention and I think that’s stupid.
13.) 17 Jul 2024 10:24:03
Another day, another troll. Sigh. And this despite having their pants taken down in full view yesterday.
14.) 17 Jul 2024 12:33:52
As for trent, I think he will sign a new contract but some people on here sayin were is our loyalty, let them all go on a free ie salah vvd n now trent, they've signed a contract we should honour it, to me is just plain crazy. if none of them sign extensions, I'd be trying to get them all out the door this season. n I know we can't force them to go. bit I'd make it hard for them to want to stay. ie no plying time etc.
15.) 17 Jul 2024 13:07:09
Didn't work with Mbappe @Strom, this shouldn't even be a problem had the club been run correctly, Salah should of gone last summer, VVD should have at least 2 years left and be sold and Trent should of been given a 6/ 7 year deal last summer.
16.) 17 Jul 2024 15:05:01
Fans have a very skewed view of the game because they're fans. The "there's no loyalty" thing is really silly.
They're employees, sometimes they're fans as well but most often they're not boyhood fans of the club they sign for.
If another company offered you 30% raise would you stay at your current employer out of loyalty? Footballers are just people like anyone else.
Try not to view the game through fans eyes because its a very inaccurate perspective.
17.) 17 Jul 2024 17:05:59
@darwins yes it is Joe but I thought he intimated that Trent told Joe he was signing? I don’t remember exactly but I was left with that impression.
28 Jun 2024 15:48:17
Gordon to Liverpool ed2?
{Ed002's Note - I don't see him leaving Hearts - he must be 40 now.}

If you re old enough you're good enough.

4.) 29 Jun 2024 01:45:41
Flash Gordon, Gordon Freeman or Alan Gordon Partridge?
5.) 29 Jun 2024 07:14:40
I think the interest in ANTONY gordon is geniune. he done few interviews lately and spoke v highly of liverpool where he could which v surpriseing coming from an ex everton player. He definetly a good player but i certainly wouldn't pay a record fee for him which has been mooted. other positions in team need strengthening before that imo.
{Ed001's Note - he is a Liverpool fan and started off in the Liverpool academy if I remember correctly.}
6.) 29 Jun 2024 07:53:26
Yeah ed1 I think that correct, i believe we released him due to him being too small. What u think of him as a player ed1? at the right fee and if diaz leaves yes, but i wouldn't be going too heavy money wise on him, would be my call.
{Ed001's Note - no thank you, he was released because he is not good enough and he still isn't. No skill, just pace. For me he is a Vardy-type player and that is where he should be playing. However to get the most out of a player like that, you need to play on the counter.}
7.) 29 Jun 2024 10:26:05
There’s definitely a swathe of local fans that seem to be enamoured with him after the interview he did with Gary Neville.
I don’t see the fuss. Definitely not at the price it would take to get him out of Newcastle.
8.) 29 Jun 2024 10:48:24
I like Gordon and I think he’d do well at Liverpool. But he’s not worth £100m and he’s not an upgrade on Gakpo.
{Ed025's Note - hes good MK but £100m is ridiculous, but i have to disagree that he is not an upgrade for Gakpo mate..
9.) 29 Jun 2024 10:43:25
ED002 - any reassurance you can provide that we won't sign Gordon, would be greatly appreciated.
{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of any plans to sign him and it would be a surprise to me.}
10.) 29 Jun 2024 11:22:38
He is an upgrade to Gakpo and Diaz for sure. Better pace than Gakpo and much better finisher than Diaz.
11.) 29 Jun 2024 11:43:33
David Lynch has confirmed talks took place. Liverpool interested but Newcastle wanted Quansah as part ex so talks broke down. I wouldn't be surprised if a cash only deal happened.
12.) 29 Jun 2024 11:57:54
------------Wrong Page------------
13.) 29 Jun 2024 13:36:59
What about offering Kelleher as part of the deal?
14.) 29 Jun 2024 14:00:25
Maybe sepp since they evidently want a cb.
15.) 29 Jun 2024 14:08:29
Apparently it collapsed because they wanted Quansah in exchange.
16.) 29 Jun 2024 14:19:08
For the type of money being talked about I'd try and get Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from napoli. We have better players than Gordon already.
17.) 29 Jun 2024 14:42:46
The "Dying Swan" is better than Gakpo and Diaz - comical stuff.
18.) 29 Jun 2024 15:15:13
We need an upgrade on the left wing and he was better than Diaz and Gakpo last season. But I’m not sure he takes us to title winning level. Musiala is the one to go for.
19.) 29 Jun 2024 16:16:15
Gordon better than gakpo and Diaz ???there are no words…. Gordon is a handful running into space for sure, but not sure what else he offers when the team is not in transition, gakpo can hold the ball up, run at defenders, carry the ball from deep and has proven that he’s a smart footballer who combines well with others, gakpo scored 16 in 53 games, many off the bench, Gordon 12 in 48, most of them starting, so not sure why Gordon is considered a more impactful player?
20.) 29 Jun 2024 16:29:16
From the sounds of the BBC report it was proposed by Newcastle and we pretty much said ‘no thanks’. Sounds like we want to keep Quansah and weren’t / aren’t actively looking to sign Gordon.
21.) 29 Jun 2024 17:43:31
I’d have him. But Liverpool don’t need him. There’s more obvious positions were desperate for.
22.) 29 Jun 2024 18:00:00
Quansah is a rare commodity, a big, tall, strong, relatively quick, English centre back, who is as comfortable on the ball as he’s dominant in the air. That lad has a big future here.
23.) 29 Jun 2024 20:24:25
Would fill a hole in the squad, you can’t have too many left win…….
Oh!
24.) 29 Jun 2024 23:36:43
Interesting what Ed001 said about Vardy, I agree he should be playing there. I think he has pace and is a good finisher.
He’s probably a better finisher than we have at the club - not including our young guns.
25.) 29 Jun 2024 21:01:20
Diaz, Gakpo, Nunez, the bloke who plays for Napoli and Gordon - we’re set.
26.) 30 Jun 2024 00:16:05
Heard that an offer of Kellerer and 50 mill is being made.
27.) 29 Jun 2024 15:27:51
Just don’t think there is much in it Ed025. End of the day your forwards have to score and create goals. That’s their job in the team. Gakpo had 22 goal involvements last season and Gordon had 23. Diaz had 18 so there is a bigger gap there to be fair in terms of output. They all made roughly 50 appearances. Gordon is the youngest at 23 years old so maybe he has a higher ceiling than Gakpo who is 25 years old. Diaz at 27 probably has the least scope for improvement.
So not saying Gakpo is better than Gordon. I like Gordon a lot and would be excited if we signed him. I just think there’s very little between them. Although I do think they could play together as both could alternate between LW and CF.
28.) 30 Jun 2024 08:12:05
Would rather stick with gakpo, he has never had a run at left wing which is his best position than buy another left winger. the money could be used better elsewhere.
29.) 30 Jun 2024 11:36:17
Perhaps club is preparing for the departure of another left winger, Diaz maybe? What else would trigger the club to go for Gordon? If it was iniated by Newcastle because of todays deadline it sounds still odd because if Liverpool do not need the player you would not enter any negotiation? Anyway absurd amounts being paid between teams who have problems with FFP deadline. Anderson to Forest for 35 mln, insane. So no more worries to sell Gordon I presume. As from tomorrow all Gordon stories will be over I guess.
30.) 30 Jun 2024 12:58:26
I would agree that Gordon is a player that thrives in space, not sure he would have the same impact when people park the bus. If Diaz were to leave, and we signed a big money left winger, I’d be pissed if i were Gakpo. Clearly his best position and never really had a shot there, and technically he is the best of the lot.
31.) 30 Jun 2024 17:21:32
If the approach for Quansah is true, then the more pertinent question would be if Gordon is so talented and has such a high ceiling, why are the Geordies so eager to see the back of him?
32.) 30 Jun 2024 20:51:09
They are in FFP trouble and needed to make some cash by today.
25 Feb 2024 20:01:13
During the cup the announcer said “as expected Virgil will depart with klopp” first I’ve heard this any truth to it?
1.) 25 Feb 2024 20:21:52
One last big contract, the end of a special era, a chance to play in a slower league, in warmer climes, who could blame him.
Xabi will have his own ideas, and our youth team looks to be bearing fruit like never before.
2.) 25 Feb 2024 22:25:52
VVD was asked about his contract after Klopp’s announcement and he said he wasn’t sure as it depends who comes in and what direction the club wants to go. Basically saying they might not offer him a contract if they decide to replace him or the new manager doesn’t want him.
That was then twisted by the media as ‘Van Dijk unsure if he’ll stay after Klopp leaves’. That’s not what he said at all.
Van Dijk then came out with a statement saying his words had been taken out of context and he’s very happy where he is.
Nothing to see, just the media doing their usual nonsense.
3.) 25 Feb 2024 23:24:59
I hope we extend his contract beacause he is the best center back in the premier league and we need his leadership.
4.) 26 Feb 2024 11:43:19
What the commentator meant was that Virgil and Klopp would be going up the stairs to collect the trophy together. I don't understand how you can understand anything else by it.
5.) 26 Feb 2024 13:12:32
What is it with this site recently were people feel the need to lambast somebody for asking a perfectly simple, honest question?
There are several possibilities Reynard as to why the OP might understand it differently. Firstly, their intellectual may be that if a normal, everyday person and not at the exceedingly high, Mensa level you obviously have yourself to enable you to understand everything so clearly. On a serious note, maybe English isn't their first language and they were watching a stream with English commentary. Or maybe they misheard and came to a LFC forum to ask a question and start a discussion, relying on the knowledge of others.
The other day it was Thunderbird I think it was (apologies if not) replying in a similar manner to someone who takes the time to post some information, a rumour if you will, on a rumours page. How about maybe taking some additional time to consider things before replying.
6.) 26 Feb 2024 14:56:05

Finally watching the game today. Chelsea look good.
Commentator said something interesting; all of our wins have been against clubs starting the weekend in the bottom half. The highest placed team we played was Forrest. I think we still have a lot to prove and can’t get too comfortable, although I love slot so far and the start we have had. Big win yesterday either way.
1.) 21 Oct 2024 16:13:25
Not arsed about such narratives and frankly, this narrative is becoming tedious and grating for the ears. Chelsea couldn't beat Palace at the Bridge yet we beat them on their patch. Villa drew away at Ipswich yet we beat them on opening day. I can keep going.
IMO, the only we people we have to prove anything to is ourselves. We are literally a work in progress and with every game we win, it allows us lee-way to progress a lot while building our confidence moving forward. Nothing and nobody else matters, IMO.
2.) 21 Oct 2024 17:43:36

3.) 21 Oct 2024 17:54:35
Boring. You can only beat who’s infront of you. We play everyone twice.
{Ed025's Note - winning is the name of the game LFC8 and even though yesterday was as dull as dishwater mate its the result that counts in the end..
4.) 21 Oct 2024 19:46:55
And in the Spurs v West Ham game the commentator said Michail Antonio has the nicest smile in football, the point being some commentators say crazy things haha.
5.) 21 Oct 2024 21:53:47
the narrative will be whatever they will be.
One year we had the best record amongst the top 4 against top 4 teams but we were scraping to make the top 4. figure that one out lol
End of the day, what matters is consistency throughout the season.
6.) 21 Oct 2024 23:49:02
Like Oli says football just doesn’t work that way. Every team in the PL has good players, managers and coaches and any team can beat you on their day if you’re not on it.
Just watch, if we get a result against Arsenal the narrative will be about the players they have missing.
Bar the Forest game, which I think caught Slot by surprise we have been up for every game and although I don’t think we’ve been scintillating in every game we’ve put a proper shift in and got the job done. It shows that the players want it and are playing for the manager.
The acid test is when we go through a bad spell and how Slot keeps the group together. It’s very easy for players to turn on each other when things aren’t going well and you need a strong leader to keep everyone moving in the right direction.
The reaction after Forest has been exemplary so I’m hoping that’s a sign of his leadership.
7.) 22 Oct 2024 09:10:38
Bowser, city were very lucky against one of them bottom sides Wolves yesterday var gave them a goal to win the game which was disputed so teams in the lower half can beat top six teams look at Arsenal so don't underestimate the teams in the lower half and you can only beat the teams in front of you .
8.) 22 Oct 2024 13:38:07
Spot on, Iwillbered. I didn't even mention that City were wretched vs Wolve, a so called "nobody" that we dominated (bar the Konate error) from start to finish comfortably.
Not even going to bring up the other "nobody" in B'mouth that Arsenal shamelessly got smoked by whereas we thumped them w/ o breaking a sweat to the point that the game was over after 30 mins.
9.) 22 Oct 2024 17:07:24
Wolves is a nobody and Arsenal shamelessly lose to Bournemouth?
I thought nothing and nobody else matters, Oli?

Richard Hughes reads this site. He made his statement today that we will be active in the market after ed said it would put the fans fears to rest haha. Who knows? If I were in the club and not a player I would definitely use this site above all others to gauge the feeling of the fans.
1.) 24 Jul 2024 04:35:23
If you were in the club BTF, w'd need the transfer market to open all year round or, we'd be playing with the same team every week.
2.) 24 Jul 2024 08:03:22
If true Best statement he can make is to shut up and just get transfers done. Make a statement by surprising us . Sounds like an attention seeker, don’t think I’ve ever heard any of previous DoF’s speak.
3.) 24 Jul 2024 08:08:11

4.) 24 Jul 2024 08:55:24
James Pearce has said Hughes priority this summer is tying Trent down to a new contract.
If he achieves it, it'll kill 2 birds with one stone as we can announce Trent then like having a new signing.

6.) 24 Jul 2024 09:40:35
Not sure what difference that statement makes, personally. The club would be derilict in it's duties if there were not already working on signings so didn't need Hughes to tell me that if in fact, he did make such a statement.
7.) 24 Jul 2024 10:06:33
Can someone let Hughes know he doesn't need to tell Oli that please.
8.) 24 Jul 2024 12:20:48
You guys can't be satisfied. If the club is quiet you complain about the lack of information.
If they talk you complain about them talking.
Do people honestly think that if he makes a PR statement that all other things go on hold while he does it? Y'all need to learn what multitasking is people at their level are always juggling 7-14 things at any given time. That's just the job.
9.) 24 Jul 2024 17:39:07
Exactly Nevada hence, I don't hold on/ hang on to every word people in such positions say. A complete waste of my time, really. I rather focus and watch what they do.
19 Jul 2024 12:35:54
Didn’t Hughes himself, in his only interview, say it was going to be more of an August transfer window for us do to the circumstances of this summer (tournaments, etc)? People are over reacting the spine of the team hasn’t even met the manager yet.
1.) 19 Jul 2024 13:15:44
Totally agree, Slot will have his own thoughts, we have some great youngsters who proved themselves last year. There’s no point in signing players for the sake of it. Sit back they know what they’re doing.
2.) 19 Jul 2024 14:48:43
Yes, but that will never sit well with most on here. They look around and see the other teams buying "new shiny toys" every week of the pre-season, and throw fits and accusations of incompetence in management at LFC. Most other teams have a coach/ manager already in place with an established structure. Ours has been stripped away from top to bottom (of the management), it needs to breath and acclimatise to the new environment. And new staff has to see the players. Fine, decisions may have been made, but every new regime wants to put its own stamp on a new place almost immediately. How long will Slot continue singing Klopp's praises and do things as Klopp would have wanted?
3.) 19 Jul 2024 16:52:56
If you went back 12 months, according to this very board, Inácio was the next “generational talent”. We didn’t sign him so we hear murmurs about the lad across Stanley Park. He, too, is the next “generational talent” but we go cold on him cos the bitters will never sell to us (or at least those of us born after 2002) who won’t remember Abel Xavier and who we signed him from. So on we go to Leroy Yoro, who, surprisingly, is the next generational talent. Now he’s gone and signed for our mortal enemy so it seems we are back to sassing out Inacio. ??? it’s no wonder some people tend to fret ….
By the way, how many generational talents can there be in on generation and how long does a generation last for now and can I search when the next one starts?
4.) 19 Jul 2024 18:03:53
WDW, to make your research easier, I suggest you look for both "generational talent" and "wonderkid". You'll have rounded up all possibilities. ?.
5.) 19 Jul 2024 18:42:35
22 years and counting since the last transfer between the two teams, the longest in history, so. You could say a transfer either way is due.
6.) 19 Jul 2024 18:52:48
De Light and Gvardiol were also the next best thing, until they weren't.
7.) 19 Jul 2024 19:48:15
A generation is the time gap between a parent and their child. So about 15-20 years tracks. I think there can surely only be 1 or 2 generational talents per generation though. That’s subjective of course but how are they generational if someone of similar ability crops up every year?
I’d argue there has only been less than 10 generational talents in the post war era. Puskas was the first I reckon. Then probably you had Pele and Best. Followed undeniably by Maradonna who was light years ahead of anyone in that generation if you speak to those who grew up in it. Then Zidane and Ronaldinho would be the first ones I got to see the back end of, and they also had a lot of crossover but most of the blokes between 25-40 will tell you they were the kings of that era. Lastly, of course, is Messi and Ronaldo who went head to head for about 20 years and everybody under the age of 25 will call them the GOAT’s.
If you’re not at that level where you’re head and shoulders above your peers to such an extent that you transcend debates on your ability, then you’re not generational in my opinion. And I don’t think you can decide who was the generational star (s) until after that generation has passed. That’s why I can’t help but laugh when I see players like Yoro given praise that I believe should be reserved for less than 10 people in living memory. Has there ever even been a generational talent at CB? Beckanbauer, Maldini and Hansen were the best of their eras. But were they generational? Not for me.

Let’s be honest generational talents these days don’t hold a torch to the ones of the past.
Current players are pure athletes who abide by formations and tactics.
True talents of the past were just pure ballers and probably didn’t commit a single tactical press in their career ?.
10.) 19 Jul 2024 22:29:10
Every word MK has just said and JK too. Why would you want to harness such flair like Ronaldinho or Bestie anyway? World class and Generational talent is certainly an overused word for me.

Not sure what it’s like in Milton Keynes Adam, but I’m pretty sure the rest of the country doesn’t have a new generation every 15 years or so. Don’t they have the electricity on at night or something? ?.
12.) 20 Jul 2024 07:00:14
I always thought a generation was 20 to 25 years. Generational in a sporting sense is just meaningless jargon that is meant to sound meaningful.
13.) 20 Jul 2024 08:22:15
Duncan Edward’s would have to be worth a shout as a generational talent. Shame he died so young.
14.) 20 Jul 2024 15:19:39
Gaza was the best of most generations.

Joyce saying Slot is the man.
1.) 23 Apr 2024 22:07:04
He's gone even money favourite with the bookies.
2.) 23 Apr 2024 22:50:39
I’m happy with this.
He’s been courted by many teams and we’re the ones who’ve snaffled him.
3.) 23 Apr 2024 23:03:09
Steady on, Ron.
4.) 23 Apr 2024 23:16:54
Ed 2 rarely if ever wrong, huh?
5.) 23 Apr 2024 23:59:10
Out of curiosity ron, which teams courted him?
6.) 24 Apr 2024 00:14:54
He plays inverted wingbacks. Trent at left back?
7.) 24 Apr 2024 03:43:49
Ok, just so that I’m sure about this - is it correct that I should like Arne Slot for the job?
I’ve been let down recently first when I was informed that Alonso was the man for the job and was what we needed.
Then I was informed that Amorim was not only the man for the job but he had actually been given the job and that he was what we needed.
As someone said recently, I didn’t know who Arne Slot was until yesterday so I’m just hoping that this one is actually the Messiah. Don’t get me wrong - I hope for all our sakes (and our collective mental health) that he is - if he does indeed get the job we can safely get on with the summer and rationalising that he is the manager we all wanted in the first place.
Just in case though, can I ask all those who know about such things, who I should be warming up to like if we have to move onto option number 4?
8.) 24 Apr 2024 04:06:51
WDW3 - maybe stop searching for a messsiah and just look for someone to come in and keep the ship rolling.
9.) 24 Apr 2024 04:29:27
It seems to be common knowledge that Slot turned down both Chelsea and Spurs last summer.
10.) 24 Apr 2024 06:24:51
Whoever gets the job the fans will get behind him as we should slot will be honoured to get the job as there is no better job on offer at the moment and he has birthday virgil gakpo and gravenberch there already.
11.) 24 Apr 2024 06:25:45
WDW3 - he’s not the messiah
He’s a very naughty boy.
12.) 24 Apr 2024 08:13:47
??? That made me laugh out loud @Rabh. The only reason most people would get behind a number of the candidates mentioned would be to stab them in the back the first time we lse a game.
13.) 24 Apr 2024 08:13:51
If he plays inverted wingbacks it will be a very short tenure.
14.) 24 Apr 2024 08:44:08
That's the spirit, Mizer.
15.) 24 Apr 2024 11:40:28
@Mizer #ArneSlotOut yeah? He’s not even signed yet and already we’re looking for holes in the armour to stick him in ?.
16.) 24 Apr 2024 12:57:37
Well, if Joyce said it then it must be true. Welcome to Liverpool, Arne. Hope you Slot in with us like other successful managers in our history, have.
17.) 24 Apr 2024 18:28:48
Is there such a thing as an inverted wingback Mizer? A wingback is a mix of a fullback and a winger. If he’s inverted then he’s missing the ‘wing’ part of the wingback persona.
Maybe a midback or an invertback or a fullfielder might be a more apt name?

@darwins yes it is Joe but I thought he intimated that Trent told Joe he was signing? I don’t remember exactly but I was left with that impression.
29 Jun 2024 14:00:25
Maybe sepp since they evidently want a cb.
10 Jun 2024 12:30:24
Now what I expected when I logged on this morning.
17 Dec 2023 13:14:02
Yeah, it’s something you apparently believe but just want to add a layer of protection by claiming it’s a CT. If it is back it with all your will and hecklers be dammed! Ask ed 33

Rotromingent glifnard is the entire insult, as noted above.

Imagine if we did the double this season that would be unbelievable. I really hope this is not the case but without January reinforcements I can really see us sputtering out like last year. A couple injuries and we are in trouble. Hopefully Curtis, grav and Ibou can keep their momentum going.
11 Nov 2024 14:58:55
I would be utterly shocked if anything came of it unfortunately. I read in twitter we are going to go after pgmol pretty aggressively but who knows if there is any truth in that. He did pretty much single-handedly cost us a title one could argue.
05 Nov 2024 12:30:05
Nice to see some relative positivity this season!
03 Sep 2024 12:29:11
I think how the double pivot performs with different players in will be monumental in terms of how our season ends up.
