Off to Marrakesh at the start of February and booked Bosnia for mid March! First time out of Europe for Morocco and back to the Balkans, probably my favourite part of the world so far

Been very easy not to buy any kits this season, all rancid bar the white one plus the god awful sponsor. Put the money from that and away games I can’t get to (despite going regularly for the last six/seven years and never getting any further up the priority brackets) towards trips abroad. Much more valuable and pleasurable

If we get anything in, it’ll be bottom of the barrel late on deadline day. It’s just what we do in January, even when we didn’t hamstring ourselves on the ability to bring in players.

Probably to replace Kristiansen who we also won’t bring in!

Any idea on the April fixtures, specifically Liverpool! I’ve used all my requests at work, need to move one for a wedding but know Liverpool game is likely to be moved

Bilal starting to kick on Butter chicken naan’s in the concourse were actually quite nice yesterday. Fin.

To be quite honest, I can’t wait to see the back of the majority of them, take 5 or 6.

Glad I’m in Morocco! Don’t have to watch it, wouldn’t pay that anyway. Disgusting

Predicted a Fulham win by two goals, easy to foretell really. We have an utterly inept group of players, a recruitment department headed up by an inept director of football that have presided over the fall in standards, overpaying on wages for said average players. Losing high value players for nothing, and despite selling one big player a year bar one or two years, finding ourselves in a position where we have come close to breaching PSR and being charged and getting off on a technicality. To any media ‘pundits’ reading this thinking our fanbase expects to be a top end premier league club, think again. We just expect our club to be run responsibly and for those at the helm to take responsibility. None of that is happening. The only good thing to happen this week is the stadium is seemingly starting to wake up to the fact. Chants much louder today and now against the board as well. Keep it going, we might eventually get some accountability

Bloody great West Ham moving to Thursday night. Book two days off work to pick up an easy away point and they bloody move it!

Abject second half after an encouraging first half. The squad is just atrocious. Palace were awful and they easily won second half. The Rudkin out chants are getting louder at last. I actually feel sorry for Ruud inheriting the absolute state of a squad we have. After getting so angered by the Wolves performance, this was my first game since. Normally an optimist, but I’m just numb to it now. The sooner we clear the decks from the top downwards the better.

This 👍. That’s my understanding anyway! Would rather just think about the football but this is what it seems to be about nowadays sadly

If we can sell Cannon for £10m rising to £13m and by some miracle someone comes in with £15m for Faes, that would really give us a great chance to bring in reinforcements in this window. Whether we do or not is up for debate, but it would certainly be a boost PSR wise and free us up in the market

One worldie doesn’t make up for 3yrs of poor defending. Why wait until the summer, if he wants out then get the cash in now. One of many that I wouldn’t be disappointed if they didn’t pull on the shirt again!

Not many can say they’ve been managing in both dugouts at Old Trafford in the same season! I imagine it’ll be the end of the cup run, and it’ll be on the TV in some shape or form.

Good result for building confidence hopefully. Need to be on it against Palace and Fulham in the next 7 days.

£20m obligation if promoted which seems more sensible on the players part. Again, despite Le Bris managing him previously, surely something we could/should have considered! Oh well, I’m sure Rudkin and co will find a couple of Ryan Bennett-esque bargain basement tat by the final day of the month!

Le Fee to Sunderland on loan with an obligation to buy. Good coup for Sunderland. Baffling we couldn’t/didn’t look at a deal and add some creativity! Be interested to know the fee (pun intended!) as Roma brought him for £19m. Depressing when sides in the division below are showing more imagination and ambition than we are!

Signed for Plymouth Argyle on a deal until 2028!

Gift Orban gone to Hoffenheim for €9m. Seems like a steal for them. Not necessarily a priority position for us but the sort of things we should be looking at.

Sold Out

We’ve finally ended up where we’ve deserved to be first half of the season. Let’s hope we can pull our socks up and get ourselves out of this mess. Without a serious injection of quality in January, it certainly is going to be a massive uphill struggle. Wolves and Ipswich finding a bit of form at just the wrong time for us

I’ve booked a Riad to stay in with breakfast and evening meal included, going solo I didn’t want to be trekking the medina late at night. Looking at hot air balloon ride, and going a bit further afield to Casablanca and into the mountains

I’ve just booked to go in February for 5 nights so will let you know 👍.

Took great pleasure in filling this in. Of course a waste of time as nobody who should be taking responsibility will ever read it, but made me feel better 🤣
