Baffles me when we're linked with a player and some Rainman say "Good player him, was the number 7 who played for Crewe against us 3 years ago away." Only knew of him due to my soft spot for Icelandic players on Footy Manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently have raised £600 million from re mortgaging ,selling rights, Spotify sponsorship, shares etc. Proper risky stuff bur their immediate problem is FFP finance rules in La Liga. They're hoping they get special treatment as per usual but need to offload players wages like de Jong to comply. At moment can't register likes of Raphina or Lewandowski so can't play them!

tomski Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Never seen the appeal with Barca or Real. Always preferred Atleti but Spanish football is hard to get into. It’s a bit poo.

I picked A.Madrid in the 90s to be different. Going when we played them was good. I think you make a good analogy on Real/Rags and I think it’s where my dislike comes from. Barca again no feelings either way and would cheer Espanyol over them if I had too. I just struggle to watch la liga and sometimes prefer french football which is a bit poo.

Number of team (PNE in particular) who have benefitted has been staggering.

He came on after 60 mins on Friday. He's off and they're protecting him. 💯 My derry mate said taking eoin toal will be an own goal... Purely because its rhymes.

paulhanley Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 I think we're going to need Eoin Toal to be a good un and ready-made for League One football. We still need strengthening in defence so lets hope this lad can step up to the plate quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking for a really steady, experienced veteran. Markham et-al have produced some good ones, so here's hoping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

passmosster Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Let's hope that he is a big strong lad. Otherwise we will get roughed up in a few fixtures next season with the present cast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
