You can guarantee that the £5 tickets for juniors as part of the membership plus will all be midweek games because they know the younger ones will be less likely to go.

Pretty much this tbh. It didn't work and it was certainly a significant factor to our first half showing. Don't think much more than that needs to be said.

If BBD stays then it won't be out of design. Honestly, I'd rather play someone from the U21s and give them some experience than BBD.

Nope. They used to years back but then realised there's more money in deciding as they go throughout the season. Would be interesting if somebody could be arsed to keep a record of each one for this season to review at the end

Let's hope the FA do ban him then

Do they actually disclose anywhere which teams/games fall into each of the categories? Tried looking the other day but couldn't find it...

No.

Not if they are given a deadline so we can secure a replacement before our window shuts.

I think BBD will stay, I get the feeling Tonda will want to use him as an additional attacking option.

No signs of any offload and thats not going to help with any arrivals. Ramsdale , Bazanu, Bereton Diaz, Downs must be a good £1m a month in wages

The Portugal League transfer window doesn't close until September 15th so that might extend the saga.

Yup. The bed wetting on here after Watford is really quite something. I guess its been a while since we lost a game that wasn't vs man city, had forgotten what its like 😄

You should be expecting a call from Dynamo Zagreb any moment.

I don't post very often now - I don't know that much, when I make comments I'm often wrong but this Bazuna thing is driving me insane. I do not know how he became a professional goalkeeper - honestly. I have said this about a half a dozen times I used to play in goal for 32 years - various standards, none superb and I was not successful or that good. That is me being honest...BUT....if this is your experience you can watch Bazuna and see when the opposition is attacking - he's not involved he's just 'ready' - he stands in the wrong position and gets his angles wrong every time. It is mental. When I watched him I was always saying - I don't shout - 'What is he doing?', Why is he standing there? Why is the angle he is set up like that?' Every.Single.Time! He is not very good - full stop. He is the biggest con, worst buy we have had. If he has a fantastic league breaking defence in front of him he'll look better - when I played in goal with really good defenders in front of me I looked good too.

Clearly slacking! Also being a cheapskate and rationed to three posts a day 😅 I agree about standing firm. Some clever stuff with add ons etc to make it more palatable to both parties is likely but IMO £30 mil for THB is about right. Then again I keep seeing some of the prices Chelsea are apparently slapping on players who haven’t pulled up trees and nearly fall over so bugger what I know! Benfica should fancy themselves to get past Aarhus though I can’t pretend to know much about either side a the moment. I guess the pain for us is the second leg isn’t until 27th August. I won’t do the “man shouts at clouds” bit about the window being open after the season starts but clearly if he is going to go we want everything sorted sooner than rather than later so we can get a replacement in and up to speed asap.

In fairness I think them saying any A/B/C game does make it pretty clear given it was its own category last season as well. I think the pricing is the bigger issue.

Are we seriously judging him after 57 minutes of league football for us!? This gets earlier every season Maybe we could give him at least 10-15 games before writing him off at his new club (new system, etc)?

Haven't seen any hysteria just people pointing out that, in their view, it didn't work and was a contributing factor to a disappointing display and defeat.

Yeah but looking along the line to make sure you stay onside in the position he was in is really basis schoolboy stuff. No excuse. Different if trying to play on the shoulder of a centre half through the middle - wide left no excuse.

Maybe if they lose and end up in the Europa conference they will consider Stephens and Wood instead!

It was a category A + last season as well.

9 million quid as well! Early days let's hope he comes good but looks very much like an average championship player to me so far.

There's some Irish ginger sort on ITV right now. Nice.

You cant use the Membership plus ticket for Pompey, they have been really sly with this, advertised the complimentary tickets as any Catergory A, B or C game, but Pompey is A+ catergory and therefore not eligble even tho last season it was Catergory A. It has pissed me off, I will use the free tickets for other games anyway and would have brought the Membership Plus even if I knew Pompey was not eligible but its just the way they've gone about it to increase sales. They should have made it clear that I would not include Pompey.
