To be honest I think a win with a number of goals including a debut one from Larin would help the crowds. Last time I did the sums the cost of my season ticket per points and goals seen was horrific.. I also can't remember when I was really relaxed about a lead and not worried about a defensive collapse.

Didn't I see a time stamp on that video of 2017, so only about 21/2 at the time. Let's hope he's grown up a bit. I wish Armstrong well but his time with us was done, and it showed. The win at Stoke showed that his contribution wasn't necessary and Larin certainly brings different attributes to the game, which we know are what we need. Hopefully he's good enough at what he does to make a difference. Downs never got going so let's hope for a tap in and nod in against Watford, as we've certainly got the players to give him some assists.

I shall watch that when I have a bit more time, but thanks! Like a big kid I was shouting out the names as I saw them in the introduction: Paine, Sydenham, Osgood, Wallace, Golac!

Possibly that you best start the process within one minute?

Brown slop?

Watched a bit of the Hull-Watford game: 0-0 and all very much thud and blunder but with the sort of physicality that we usually struggle against..

Are they nearer sea level than St Marys then?

Well, at least we won't miss his ability in that direction.

What, like angry wasps? Wouldn't hang around there mush!

I think that is the crucial point. We've long been used to his misses, mind. Perhaps we can have Cyle start the odd game, bully the defenders a bit and get them running around, get a CB booked, possibly even score a goal (!) and then bring on Stewart to finish it off.. We can all dream, can't we, and then wish him well on his world cup venture after scoring 8 goals for us.

From The Echo website: 9:12pm 🚨 Plan remains the same. Armstrong to Wolves announced soon, and then the loan signing of Larin from Mallorca shortly after. There's a plan, at any rate..

Well, it's some time since we had a player strong enough to be bounced off! As for the f-u, at least he was there and anticipated it, and as you observe he can run. My naturally optimistic nature may soon be disillusioned, but let's see. The thing about Downs was that he _didn't_ run, although I recall just the one occasion when he proved he could, quite quickly. Most odd.

What? Not even Tommy Fourpast?

The reported opinions of Feyenoord and Mallorca fans (as well as recent stats) obviously don't fill us with optimism but for those on here going on and on (and on) about SR's scouting it would appear they are not alone in their crapness given that both those clubs took him on. We might also use Leicester recruiting Aribo as another example! Perhaps it's just the financial reality of all of us skint minor clubs. My hope is that he really wants to play at the World Cup, so plays out of his skin and gets on the end of some of Fellows' lovely crosses, when we will all forgive him his clumsiness. It does seem best to wait and see, although with Downs it didn't take long to come to an opinion..

Hopefully people are digesting the fact that we got a win away and are looking a bit more progressive and might go out and buy a ticket..
