The fact that (on the face of it) we didn't scramble to sell our players before the deadline makes me think we'll be okay. The club appear confident but they've got history of being arrogantly wrong plenty of times before.

He's a lot taller than Mads so probably.

It'll be reformatted. Warwickshire Phoenix, Essex Spirit, Lancashire Originals etc.

Brownhill, Kone and a young centre half in. Coady, Soumare, Kristiansen out. Keep hold of one of Hermansen or BEK. I'd say that would be a positive window.

Took us 137 years to win our first FA Cup. I certainly didn't expect to win it in my time (and I doubt we will again).

Has there been anything said about a potential sell-on clause for KDH?

Nobody is going to pay the money we'd want and I don't think he'd be the type to force a move just yet. I would be willing to bet my house that he'll stay for this season.

One year in the Premier League where you get 10 goals, 5 assists and you're gonna get a contract off someone for £150k a week. One year in the Championship where you get 20 goals and 10 assists and you're gonna get a contract off someone for £60k a week. The Premier League is simply where the money is and where the eyes are looking. Bilal, like any ambitious footballer, will fancy his chances of being a regular for an elite level club. He's not going to catch their attention in the Championship.

He's likely to be the starting striker for a side wanting promotion. He'll be given more than £20k a week. I know there's some trepidation about offering large wages but we can afford something in the region of £30k-£35k and be fine.

I watched the culmintion of the men's game last night and they must have spent 20 minutes talking to Keaton Jennings while the game was going on. Granted it was a blowout and the Invincibles won by a mile but still. They were just having a casual conversation with him while the game was going on. I'd imagine that new viewers wouldn't know who the **** Keaton Jennings was and would rather have been told about the game.

The captain should be the one that leads by example as opposed to the one that wins the popularity contest. Whoever is the best in training, understands the City, has a positive attitude and isn't afraid to point out shit behaviour. I think club captain has to be Ricardo. I would give the vice captaincy to Ben Nelson.

Shame he's going for about £20m. I think he's got every attribute needed to be worth a lot more than that.

Wrexham have signed yet another Championship journeyman in Kieffer Moore.

Mads.... it might be you.

Do you think it is though? I got into cricket as a 12/13 year old watching the 2005 Ashes. There's no way I'd have even known it was a thing if it was on Sky. Completely agree with regards to showing day 5s. Should be free tickets and free to view.

Why couldn't they just do this for everyone?

I'd also say the better comparison is Savage/Ndidi, Lennon/Tielemans and Muzzy/Maddison.

Frustrating that we've had 25 days of superb cricket locked behind a very high paywall and we're now going to show a mickey mouse competition on freeview. The ECB and Sky have got to find ways to make test cricket more accessible. Kids are going to grow up thinking the only good thing about cricket is 6s.

Duckett Rahul Gill Root Brook Pant (wk) Stokes (c) Jadeja Bumrah Tongue Siraj Would be a pretty good side. I'd say that other than Tongue it would be the on-paper 11 too. You'd probably want Archer in there. Surprised to learn of Tongue's stats though. 19 wickets in 3 matches and the lowest strike rate of the series. He and Krishna have that same ability to bowl crap but have a magic delivery up their sleeve.

A standard day for Anthony;

Maddison was the match winner in the team. Fans look to him as the one to keep us up. I agree that it's unfair but it's just the way it goes. Same thing happens in every sport. Sachin Tendulkar, Michael Jordan, Tom Brady etc. They all cop a larger amount of stick than the rest when they're not able to pull their team through.

Do we think Rudkin was bright enough to put in a sell-on clause considering he was clearly never going to last at Chelsea?

You're right and we don't know. But we can probably take a good guess considering he was 1st on the team sheet up until he refused to fall in line with the rest of the squad. But Soumare probably deserves a go at this level too.

There's plenty of KPFC fans that adore that Fearless Foxes guff.

Plenty of good ones.... if you ignore the absolutely shit ones I take your point
