Re: Potential New Owners

How may clubs are currently owned by hedge funds? This one feels a bit like the red bird one, that it’s seeing us a part of a portfolio of clubs across Europe I guess I can’t see how you’d make loads of money from us, but on tbe other hand not really a money pit at the moment if ran sensibly We’d b...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (a)

Would a team of; Button Yiadom, Holmes, TMac, NGW Azeez, Hutch, Wing, Knibbs Smith, Ehibhatiomhan ...not offer more experience and far more chance of getting our of the division?

Re: MATCHWATCH : Northampton Town (a)

I think the worst thing about this is that people have started excusing Ince's absolute shitshow. The football is more enjoyable under Selles and we're probably getting more points on the board based purely on home form, but that would require ignoring our record in the first half of last season. I...

Re: Selles In

Who is actually playing out of position? Binden - yes but we know nothing of him, he could have spent his entire youth career at RB. It’s hardly unheard of to play a CB at RB. Holmes is a great example of someone who did the job well there. Who else? And you suggested Rushesha at LB which to me see...

Re: another, thants right another embargo for late PAYE payments - a new embargo

PieEater So are we in trouble after having failed to sell anyone during this transfer window?

I got the impression we needed to in order to pay wages AND the 125% wages.


Didn’t we sell Puscas for £4 million and a youngster for £1 million?

Re: Summer 2023 Transfer Speculation

The reliance on Kelvin E is partially a result of the Smith injury. We're already managing an injury to our 1st choice in that position. One more option is definitely enough given Smith will be back in a month. With Carroll likely off, is 1 really enough? We would be left with Smith, KE and Vickers...

Re: Ex Players

Thanks for the info on Baradji. 05/06 would never of happened without him. I am sure my memory of players/games has got worse since I hit the big 60. It gets even worse and games , players and seasons become so much harder to define. 2005/6 is a reasonable memory point because it was such an unforg...

I’d suggest Les Ferdinand and Martin Keown as being particularly poor. Proper dead wood.

Pepe the Horseman Bit short of attacking options on the bench. Where does Tuma play?


Wing I think, rapid. Didn't play for most of last year as was focusing on his A levels (Deputy Headboy at Eton I think!)


In 2019 (when he was 14) he ran the 100 metres in 11.23 seconds, coming third.

Re: Summer 2023 Transfer Speculation

I feel we could afford to lose a CB (selling either of the Toms perhaps). And that if we could get rid of Ejaria it would be ideal.

Walcott would fulfill both the AM and STR options so we may only need two more in, ideally not loans.

Re: Will we exist as a club 1 year from now?

Yes, but I completely expect us to have gone into and out of administration, and so the owner is unlikely to be the same as it currently is. I also think administration is the best hope the club has of long-term survival right now. I’ll ask again, given that the debt is ‘owned’ by Dai and administr...
