Johnnyrotten Posted July 19, 2024 Author Posted July 19, 2024 Anyway back on topic. John "shit Gareth Bale" Marquis has moved from Bristol to Shrewsbury. Lincoln signed a defender (Hamer) from Burton and the manager says one of the reasons is his long throw. We have been warned! (no doubt Burton are scouring the country for a replacement). Quote

However we saw how long it took the likes of Sunderland and Ipswich to get out of this division. Nothing is a racing cert. Your right Paul, but this Brum spending is on another level. Brum 3/1 for winning the league must be one of the shortest odds for a team winning the league ever! the next teams are 11s and 12s. Quote
frank_spencer Posted July 20, 2024 Posted July 20, 2024 If Brum have all this money why did they get relegated last season? Surely their budget would at least guarantee mid table obscurity. Quote

Hasn't Williams got a long throw. I recall Evatt being surprised when he used it in an early game. So surprised he seems to have stopped him using it. I'd hate it to be our one tactic, but now & again a useful weapon, Shirley ? Quote

So surprised he seems to have stopped him using it. I'd hate it to be our one tactic, but now & again a useful weapon, Shirley ? I think the contrast in styles/intent is given away by the fact that whilst Williams used it in his first game and it was immediately binned, the Lincoln manager seems to be buzzing over the prospect of having this weapon in his armoury and it may be a reason he signed him! I don't particularly want to us use this tactic other than maybe last 5 minutes desperation (it was boring and not very successful when we used it in the past) but it looks like we will need to be on our guard aerially when we play th'Imps.

Dont really know where you come up with that assumption when he only played twice for us, one as sub? A team from the same division as us have just signed him! Quote

It does seem incredible that he's not only got a transfer to an EFL club, but one in L1. He's never even played at National League level! From the outside, it looks like Crawley have got promoted then set about weakening their team, they've lost a load of their better players and signing the likes of Faal. They must be nailed on to finish bottom Quote

gonzo Posted July 23, 2024 Posted July 23, 2024 Been round Blackpool FC all day today. Jesus I thought our lot were down in the dumps. Training ground been put on hold, as has the fancy new stand with retractable top tier. Barely any signings, hikes in ticket prices and a rather tense fans/owner Q&A the other week. Quote

Didn't we all think they were in the pits just before they twatted us last season though?! 😃 Quote
