DT

Got a funny feeling THB will go, so I hope we have eyes on a decent centre half and are not relying on Jack Bloomin' Stephens (his real middle name). THB does pitch in with a few goals too, so hope that we don't miss those and Shea's...

Totally agree. Cam Bragg is really very good.

Derby also scheduled an appointment with Specsavers at the same time as registering their interest in Brereton-Diaz

Cannot for the life of me see the point of playing BBD. If it is 'shop window' it will only allow those peering inside to see how shit he is and not buy him. Is there another reason? Is it national beard day? Or has he got secrets about Spygate we want to keep inside? Whatever it is, it can't be because he can play football

'Grannying'? Is this about Wayne Rooney? 😉

I hope we're sounding out Eddie Howe before Staveley's West Ham nab him. Can't help feeling the FA will want to go all billy big balls against little old Southampton and amidst the general witch huntery surrounding Infantino and the village cricket cheating scandal. Thought it would be 6 games ban but if it's 10 what would stop us getting Howe in as short term coach/advisor, in a perfect world? Fantasyish I know but just a thought

Classy guy, Charlie Austin. Austin was found guilty of assault in 2013 after he punched a man who had accused him of taking drugs in a Swindon nightclub toilet cubicle.[77] He was fined £1,801 and ordered to pay £1,320 in costs.[77][78]

My bet is they will suspend Tonda today for up to 6 games. ie a touchline ban. If only we had committed widespread fraud for decades we would have got away with it. But a boy in a tree is a lynchable offence.

Charlie Austin saying he should be suspended on Talksport. 'They really need to hammer this home'. Wanker.

Thought we bought him for £20m? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c9wwm4l8j21o

Seems to quite like changing his identity...

As ever, it depends on whether the player wants the move or not. If he does, I suspect we would take that. Perhaps even 20. There is the lure of London, and playing in a team that appears like it is gunning for immediate promotion, whereas the uncertainty around our own manager's position may also be a little unsettling for some. We need to offer him more money if the rumours about his weekly wage are true. Or at least offer big goal bonuses...

Possibly. But I think the statement said we were standing by him? Which suggests we would just see out the ban. I hope so.

If it IS to be a ban, would it be a touchline ban? Ie free to manage the team for all but the 90 mins from the dugout? Would have thought that isn't that bad. Get him an earpiece. And a phone...

The world's gone fucking mad. Total blindness to big clubs deaing with dogdy cash, laundering, cheating and large scale fraud and we get a ton of bricks on our head for a boy with a phone. Pathetic.
