  1. Fixed it for you
  2. Mate, that’s awful
  3. Was the third goal as offside as it looked?
  4. Good win - Bromley were pretty woeful
  5. Just messaged 👍
  6. If anyone has a spare, please ping me a message. Thanks
  7. Surely any argument/discussion can be supported by a few facts - we don’t need speculation on players quality or style of play because, as you mentioned, they are completely subjective, However: Three relegations in four seasons. From Premier League football to League One in four years. Just six Premier League wins in 2024/25. Twenty-five defeats in one Premier League season. Eighty goals conceded in 38 matches. Nine consecutive home league games without scoring — a top-flight record. Relegated from the Premier League with five games remaining. Over £180 million in pre-tax losses across three financial years. Six-point deduction for financial rule breaches. Season-ticket renewal rates falling from 97.6% to 79.1% over two years £89.5m loss in 2022/23, the first relegation season. £19.4m loss in 2023/24, despite winning the Championship. £71.1m loss in 2024/25, despite returning to the Premier League. Staff costs reached 116% of revenue in 2022/23 and 101.6% in 2023/24. An independent commission found a breach of the applicable financial rules, resulting in a six-point deduction in February 2026. The club subsequently lost its appeal And in League One…just two wins from the opening eight matches, including a 4–0 home defeat to Oxford and a 3–1 defeat to Peterborough. This is not simply a run of poor results. It is a sustained failure of footballing and financial management. Please feel free to add the Kevin Bacon ‘These are the facts of the case and they are undisputed’ meme
  8. Character building
  9. That’s a fairly anaemic statement from the Trust, sadly. I understand as presumably they still want a relationship with the club (?). It just doesn’t really convey the breathtaking decline and scale of ineptitude by those running the club, imo. Everyone seems scared to offend/upset the preciously thin-skinned owner. Nothing will change until Top is publicly and consistently called out as the architect in chief of this sh*tshow. Rudkin will then just be collateral. How did a club with such sporting and financial opportunities allow the decline to continue through three separate relegations? Financial mismanagement, points deduction, record breaking losing streaks….and it’s still getting worse. The quality of managerial appointments are matters of opinion, but the facts would suggest that these have also been poorly thought through. I’m sure someone with more intelligence than me can put together a compelling, stat-based, anti-business plan of what we have spectacularly achieved in such a short space of time.
  10. How to spell Axolotl
  11. Wtf is Middle Eastern money doing to mainstream sport? This isn’t anti-Middle East, and Western sport was hardly pure beforehand. But there’s a point where money stops enhancing sport and starts distorting it. The Man City/Premier League debacle. Huge boxing bouts in Riyadh with virtually no atmosphere. The LIV Golf circus. F1 increasingly following the biggest cheque, and so on. Sport needs investment. But.
  12. Sandisk are my best performers this year - I think data storage type businesses are a decent growth market.
  13. Cockney 🤣🤣
  14. I recently got a ‘why would I want to learn to drive?’ response from my 18 year old. Could’ve kissed him
  15. I have been known to sneak down and watch the odd game. Same at Fulham Usually when I just want to see football- proper football, rather than what we have been served up the last 3 or 4 years.
