  1. Depends on if it was a sell on based on profit or not. If it was then we're due to get precisely £0
  2. I'm sorry, is the club threatening bans to people here who give Hart and Evatt a bit of stick? Even online? Get fucked. Who's the barometer of the nastiness? Is there an objective metric or just if one of them gets their feelings hurt? It's pathetic for me this. This sort of softness from top to bottom is the reason we get spanked in big games against rivals that are far more up for it than we are.
  3. We usually fare much better against sides that come and try to play the same way as us, especially at home (See Sunderland). Where we've struggled against teams in the past is when they sit deep and get physical, which is why we've been done by these lot in the past and struggled against the likes of Barnsley and others. So, hopefully they do show up and try to play a bit, I'd back our midfield and wing backs to thrive if that's the case.
  4. Two outrageous strikes in the game and a well battled finish, been an entertaining enough game. I've definitely needed to switch to watching with a very different mentality to get to an enjoyment level, but since I have I really do enjoy the football England try to play and some impressive players for the level.
  5. Stokes back in for ODIs, at the expense of Brook it seems. Don't follow the 1 day stuff all that much but looking at the squad, you could quite easily put an 11 together that essentially doesn't have a tail.
  6. The only way that "£20s Plenty" will ever been taken on at EFL level is if it's subsidised by the big boys, otherwise it's a massive revenue stream lost for the sake of a few folk whinging every time a Cat A fixture comes around.
  7. They've listened and changed two of the home kit designs, they continue to impress these lot. https://www.bwfc.co.uk/news/pick-our-kits-202425-home-kits-revisited
  8. I think he's a bit daft not taking the move and would have liked to see how we reinvested the money as I'm really not sold on his potential. But fair play to the lad, there's no harm in having players here that love the club and are committed to the project, hope he proves me wrong and turns in to a long term option for us up the leagues.
  9. With this one we'd basically have to evaluate how much Promotion is worth to us. Then that's the fee for Dion. Selling now effectively puts our ceiling this season at Playoffs again.
  10. I nearly linked that here myself but it felt too much like shameless self-promotion 😂
  11. I'd still like to see another RWB, I like JDC a lot but risky the amount of minutes he's going to be asked to play if we don't add some depth.
  12. I feel like I'm reading a propaganda thread to get Bristol to up a bid here or something, I'm shocked there's interest at all let alone from a Championship club. The only thing that would ward me from accepting an offer of a couple of hundred grand is the fact it's so close to the end of the window and we'd need a body as replacement. But if we could get them to somehow send some of that silly money they've just got our way and get close to 7 figures then I'd drive him down there myself, could comfortably spend a quarter of that fee and find an improvement. He's a player with a lot of heart but for me lacks the necessary quality to play regularly for us even at this level, and I don't see how he can improve to the point of being a regular for us and certainly not to a Championship level.
  13. We can finally benefit from the nonsense of this modern market. Quote them £2.5m and let them negotiate down, anything over a mil snap their hand off and go get a lad from League 2 for a quarter of it. Rinse and repeat.
  14. The club seem to have liked the ability to have fans vote on the kit choices last year so they've done it again. https://bwfc.socialasking.com/ Website seems to enjoy crashing, but could just be a traffic issue. For any one that's bothered, the home ones aren't getting a good reception, away ones personally I think are lovely. Especially the green.
  15. Wouldn't be surprised to see Conway start at LWB tonight, he's looked a cut above so far this year for the B Team, set up all 3 goals against Leeds U21s the other night. Expect a couple of lads on the bench too, Khumbeni and perhaps a forward. Trevon Bryan has already scored a couple of very good goals, so it'd be nice to see him rewarded.
  16. Biggest paycut ever taken to ease the cap implications of the trade. Can't argue with that, I think Rodgers has an encouraging mentality with this move, realises it's a very good opportunity to win in his last few years. Also commits him to at least the next 2 seasons, justifying the potential 1st Rounder that the Jets gave up in the trade. Freed the team up to re-sign Quinnen Williams and also allows them to either add a premium free agent now or make a move at the trade deadline later in the year. All positives from the move so far. I think Rodgers has a chip on his shoulder as well these next couple of years which could spell another MVP-like year or two.
  17. He'll be a B Teamer but one of a couple this year that I could see finally getting some decent playing time, at least in a few cup games or from the bench. Matheson, Khumbeni, Conway and possibly a forward or two.
  18. Bothers me that Khawaja has had something to say, considering he's the epitome of the dullard, slow, anti-entertainment cricket that Australia are using to limit England's style of play. Yesterday, Crawley passed Khawaja for leading run scorer in the series in less than half the balls faced.
  19. Some knock from Crawley this, and to be fair to him it's felt like it's been coming. Every time this series he's just looked like getting settled he's hung one out there, but kept his head screwed on through his 50 today and then not looked back. Really impressive, and I'm happy for him, hope it's the start of the sort of form he's threatened to put together before. Need to turn the screw now though into the evening, big day tomorrow and feels like our only chance of getting a result.
  20. I've never heard of him either, 6'0" Left Back he's listed as, so cover for that LCB position in our system you'd have thought.
  21. Surprised he's committed to that, I imagine it was signed a couple of days ago, probably regretting it somewhat now.
  22. Wonder if they fancy moving Connell on then? 👀 Wouldn't be opposed to Kitching either, or their RWB...
  23. It's probably true of all 3 matches. The Bairstow inclusion becomes more and more baffling by the over.
  24. They're going to win them anyway, I'd just rather it wasn't 0-5.
