There are rumours about Ndidi - i see nothing about Soumare. I think if he is in the starting line up today then the plans are to play him against Sheff Weds.

Surely Wilf is one who is off? Winks and Skipp need game time. I felt Skipp improved against Kohl (penalty aside) but Winks looked well of it. If Winks plays today he does need to up his game. the one i really worry about is Soumare.

Myth is a bit harsh, but he is definitely a player who the larger fan based tend to forgive. He speaks well and isn't arrogant and always comes across as a great gentleman. An excellent pro who never seems to get angry or misbehave. But i times i've felt he was absolutely terrible. And i mean terrible. A new start will be great for him and we need to move on, so lets take what we can and remember him as 'ok', but lets not make up he was some sort of top tier player we were lucky to have.

Sorry - typo. AI butchered out club name and it looks eastern european.

I like the fact you havent noticed our club because Ukrainian.

Would have thought the biggest complaint is that they dont want to give us enough money, and certainly not as much as a made up gambling company.

I think we will see Faes unfortunately. I'd like to start Okoli / Nelson but i think he will think this is too inexperienced. Nelson has been all over the socials lately so think it will be Faes / Nelson. I think we won't see JJ and with Riccy injured we have to see Aluko. Alves must start. My fear is we see Soumare start. A bit statement intent this starting 11.

Im looking forward to seeing the style and the young players. I expect to be beaten by a much better Italian team, but im looking for us to stick to our style and work out how to play a better team.

I got emailed the season ticket for someone called Liam

He’s always needed somewhere to take his dog.

What time do you think the players will arrive? Quite fancy throwing some abuse at Faes (not really, just have nothing better to do)

Thank god for PSR, that’s all I can say.

Fair enough, but i actually enjoy getting out of the house and getting my son off youtube. Im genuinely interested to see how we line up, see the academy kids etc.

One of the slowest footballers ive ever seen. Don't ever recall thinking he was ever good in any game i watched. Bit of a twat who is going to do the best he can to play as little as possible and get us much media exposure as he can.

I've noticed a lot of people making quite a bit of this, including one or 2 youtube fan channels who have referred to Jakubs foot work as 'awful'. I think it's unfair, and Jakub has always looked comfortable to me passing around at the back. I felt Mads struggled playing long a lot last season as well, although i do think Mads is better. I'm just not sure its a massive problem for Jakub who is still learning on the job. Towards the end of last season i could see that Jakub was taking more risks and some of this wasn't great, but that's part of the learning and as we were relegated the right time to do it.

2 of those make me feel ill, and one is injured for the rest of the year at least

We should also take a cut in future podcast revenue

oh - did you do that today? I would rather have a card for my son, and even though i spend far too much of my time on here i had no idea about a deadline. I will try and get if you got this recently.

Without the actual detail in what was discussed and the reasons behind it, we are all making it up. If you drive 90 mins but sit at a desk (i too am making that up) then you can assume that the drive has no bearing on your performance. I do a commute into london twice a week and its takes nearly 2 hours. I do it because i have to, but on those days i will put my hand up and say i think my overall output is worse because of it. But if my parent company said i had to stay overnight because of it, im not going to just accept that without a proper discussion. I dont think that matters if you are a junior or a multi millionaire. I do get the general feeling (again making it up) that Winks and Ruud properly fell out and that this whole thing found its way out there to provide the detail of why he was sidelined. In these situations, both have usually done something wrong.

As i can't get my boy a physical card anymore, either me or the wife will have his ticket on our phone. However, either of us sometimes misses a game. Can we move the ticket between our phones if either of us is away? Just adds a lot of complication.

I thought it was reported that there were.

Its the opposite problem to PSR. PSR has put the blinkers on everyone. We have the authorities coming up with tonnes of complex rules, accountants focussed on fiddling those as much as possible, club leadership doing all sorts of deals to circumvent it (selling womens teams, selling hotels, transfer cartels, selling youth players) and lawyers fighting cases on technicalities. What the authorities have forgotten is your owner could pass PSR, but be a negligent twat who runs everything into the ground and does huge amounts of harm to the club. Yet this is ok, and owners willing (and financing) big spend isn't.

Hahahahahha! There are probably many out there who genuinely think that and think the rules could be even tougher to stop a Chansiri. He might even be used as an excuse to do so. There appears to be little to stop a complete rogue charlatan from taking over a club and killing it. I supposed PSR stopped him buying players for 30 million + , but where as our owners liked to splash the cash, it seems that was never an objective for Chansiri.

Dont worry - they will only play Ward one game and quickly realise what they have done. He will be 3rd choice + tea boy again pretty sharpish.

The irony is that all that happens now are measures which hurt the club even more. Embargos, points deductions, fines. All of which make the situation more dire for the fans. Due process has massively failed Sheff Weds.
