He’s not 5 years old…

My only thinking about the "next few weeks" comment is that it'll be Sky doing it as either part of the Southampton or Sheffield United coverage. Both the Southampton and Sheffield United games are on main Sky Sports Football channel with 1 hour build up.

I'll get pelters but I actually think that's good timing for Jakub. He was getting caught up in all the mess at the back, some dreadful distribution, making silly mistakes. Actually don't think a few games with a ridiculously experienced goalkeeper who can shout the odds a bit will do us any harm.

Was about to say this also. There’s two or three teams in the prem that have done similar. But no one with the Vampire Kangaroos. I think Burnley have something but it’s with Barclays

All well and good until these teams get to the knockout rounds and crash out to teams that are better than them. 3 out of the last 10 Champions League winners from England, and two of those occasions were all English ties where European powerhouses were having shocker seasons. I saw this article this morning and just thought "Get back to me when the draw for the Semi Final is done"

Yep! Wouldn't be surprised to see him end up at Chelsea eventually, perhaps if Enzo replaces Pep.

Danny my man... you have come to the right place! Welcome

@MPH I think the point that myself and Sol are trying to make is that in our current situation.... this is not a good thing. Every penny we make will be servicing these facilities.

That applies to the transfer ones, yes. The problem is the 3 that we currently have secured against future TV revenue/parachute payments. If we don't get promoted, then every penny of parachute payments goes straight to the vampires and still wont cover everything, so interest will go up on remaining payments. If we don't get promoted with the time frame that parachutes run out then **** knows what happens... probably secure it against other assets!

If he's having a sit down interview in the next couple of weeks then you can pretty much guarantee Marti is getting sacked after Saturday.

I wonder if Saints might give the U21 coach a chance. He's got decent pedigree, been Assistant manager at Barnsley and Genoa. Young, German, went straight into scouting/coaching and already knows their youth team which famously produces good talent. 5 wins, 3 draws and a loss since taking over that side as well. (the loss was against us )

He's got the easiest job in the world and has been promoted significantly beyond his means If he had any semblance of ambition he'd have gone to a traditional top 6 side after we won the league. Or after the tragedy which is about the last thing he handled well.

Got to add in their morale boosting win at Sheff Weds tonight too Or they get beaten and get a caretaker bounce!

Can I tie Faes to the back so he drags along the tarmac? Like a wedding car?

Where TF are Westlife?!?!

Completely agree with you I was sort of just defending these silly rumours about the ref who was most likely following the rules.

We’re also not creating chances….

The rule for stopping was put in place for when teams doctors/medical staff form part of the response in the stand and therefore the players are at risk as there’s no one to look after them if needed. Similarly if a defib is taken out of action for use in the stands. I assume on this occasion the right amount of medical attention was sourced without needing to use match day medical team members?

El Caretakerco

No, my reaction was one of wtf not questioning you

Great description, he looks every bit the player Chelsea and Man City were interested in. He wasn't at fault for anything, but absolutely another error not subbing him off with ten mins left, even if just to waste time! Was clearly struggling with the pace unsurprisingly,

Should be frogmarched out the ****ing building this evening for leaving Nelson out all season.

Feel like we’ve wasted a quarter of a season to be honest. The ****er has even made Luke Thomas look okay!

Yes… yes he is as good as “we’ve all kept banging on about”…
