Saville was one of those signings that just didn’t work out and his return to Millwall is a good one for all involved. It would be far easier to accep...
I hope he's consistently as good as was on debut against Cardiff when he played on loan for us under Tony Mowbray. Absolute handful.
I have to say I think it’s pretty ridiculous that the Denmark v Finland game was completed yesterday. I understand that the players gave the ok to c...
@david-in-cumbria It was a great post, David, giving the blog probably its most relevant account so far. I think we all recognise that this blog i...
@ken That certainly resonates with me, Ken. I’ve been dim and pale my whole life.
I suppose the need for a clear objective or an end date depends on whether you consider the taking of a knee to be a campaign/protest or whether it is...
@deleriad That’s true, but equally Brentford have got their price (£35m for Watkins for example). Thats my point. There is not a player we can att...
@exmil Irreplaceable. The only offers we should therefore consider are unreasonable ones north of £30m plus substantial add-ons. That assumes Dael...
I actually think Andy Carroll is a pretty good player (or at least WAS a very good player) and ideal for Warnock-ball but his injury record and no dou...
@deleriad I lived in and around Edinburgh for three years in the mid-2000s as well. Great place.
If we play a back four, it would be Fry and Hall for me. If it’s a back three, it would be Fry, McNair + 1 which probably wouldn’t be Hall as both he ...
@jarkko I think your attempt at positivity has been well and truly hijacked I’m afraid! I applaud your effort though.
@ken Some of that has to do with wealthy owners, Ken. Below is a list taken from footballbests.com, with some of those clubs among the wealthiest no...
@jarkko I will add that we will go into next season on an improved financial footing. Of course, the pandemic has ruined any cost cutting to some ex...
Given that Warnock will be here for only one more season (we think), is it not better to miss out on these signings in any case? The next manager, who...
Just discovered that Liverpool centre-back Nat Phillips is the son of former Boro full-back, Jimmy Phillips.
@redcarred I'd much prefer us to be looking at younger strikers with intelligent movement, good technique and composure - pace would be a big bonus ...
Not sure if my earlier attempt to post got through so will try again.... The League One Player of the Season was Peterborough striker Jonson Clarke-...
@k-p-in-spain Strategy is a generous word but I do believe that the thinking is now a one year attempt to get promoted. Otherwise known as s**t or...
I think there is an argument that we’ve improved on and off the field. We’ve stayed clear of any relegation battle, been more organised, scored more g...
@werdermouth It reads like Mr Wilson has been taking tips from this blog! Very similar comments to one paragraph in particular of this weeks opener,...
Truly dreadful today, as has it been for so much of this calendar year. Former pros often say that it’s the senior players who run the dressing room...
John Obi Mikel is a 14th player for this list.
@ken Geremi and Clayton Blackmore the ones we missed in the end. Good question, Ken.
Would Ritchie de Laet have received a winners medal at Leicester?
@powmillnaemore Aliadiere is a great shout though. So that's at least 9 of the 13 (not sure about Greening and Schwarzer). Struggling for any mo...
@powmillnaemore No Lennie Lawrence was in charge in that first Premier League season. I think Robson would have been playing for Man U then.
Liverpool didn’t win the Premier League until last season and I can’t think of anyone there. The possible clubs are Man U, Arsenal, Chelsea, Blackbu...
