Is Colapinto dumb?

McLaren racing. Wonder if it'll end in tears again.

Pfft, speak for yourself! Or should I say, 'Sprechen Sie für sich selbst!'

Top had a zoom call with him yesterday.

Love that we're the club they actually got, then talked themselves out of it And the bint at the end thinks the lion is the vegan team

@em9999?

Because it goes to show the problems are also beyond RVN. Surely you can see and appreciate that? The club is in the shit. RVN was just a small faulty cog within the whole machine. I don't think it's difficult to grasp.

Saying the club didn't back him doesn't equate to defending him. Just saying.

Interestingly we're at home on Diwali weekend (it's on 20th). We're at home to Portsmouth in 18th. Usually the club request that weekend to be an away game. Unless that's changed or is irrelevant because it's on Monday this year?

You've gone beyond the point I was making. He came in November and from what he said, had funds in January to use on various targets. When that transpires to be a £3m signing by the end of the window, it hardly screams having funds to 'work with'...

Also, people want instant success and instant change. Never works like that in this day and age so any small win 'appears' insignificant even though it could be the start or a domino effect of influencing other change, demonstrating to the club that communication like this can work. And rapport can be built if that communication goes both ways, and that they do listen to what the Trust (ie fans) are putting across.

I don't disagree with either of you! But one player signed in Jan, for a paltry £3m, doesn't scream having opportunities to change things up. Therefore, not much to work with. I'm not making an excuse for him here. His choices were questionable at times and that's being generous! Pre-game, during matches and after a player had a good game he gets dropped etc.. I'm not backing him. But it's not as simple as saying he was shit when the club didn't exactly do much to help him out...

Him being shit and also not having anything to work with doesn't have to be mutually exclusive. Both are true.

I'd take a sausage roll at this rate.

Do you really think he said anything anyway

Two words in Percy's article immediately stand out. 'Anonymous board'. Couldn't be more true. They've been anonymous for a while.

Imagine if Rudkin has done this and Top doesn't even know. Top flies back and reinstates Ruud

Coaching staff hanging around for training? King to be appointed perhaps? Cheap option... Odd they've done it now and not a few weeks ago, which again leads me to think they have been waiting for someone to become available...

Must have agreed to get someone in sharpish then.

and new Categories C & D is introduced for a minimum of five games (at lower cost than any home league game during our last season in The Championship). I interpret that as C&D will be implemented for 5 games. Probably Oxford as Cat D and four others as Cat C.

Is it me or did Sheff Weds play Southampton 2 seasons ago and nearly beat them on the opening day?

Yes the youth are our first team

Must win?

It is.
