Lee On Solent Saint

For context, I think the skates lost 2-0 to Aldershot the other night. No idea what the team was though.

I've got better things to do on a hot Saturday afternoon than argue with you about West Ham's finances. Relegation affects all clubs in one way or another.

Whilst everyone else gets sold. Bowen was always likely to stay with them. I think the reality of his situation has probably hit home. He knows he is well out of the England picture, and unlike JWP has accepted it.

So are their debts, presumably? Relegation will hit them just as hard as any other club

There is no right deal if you are selling your best defender to a promotion rival. Can't believe even we would be that stupid to entertain this.

According to the report we beat a host of Championship teans to his signature, including Middlesbrough. That's fuckin hilarious if true.

Wasn't he close to joining Rangers in the January window? Possibly their interest might be still be there

Not necessarily are a starter, but might signal the end of Archer if he does sign.

That challenge by Messi looks worse every time I see it.

Fuck's sake. As long as they win football matches they can wear bin bags for all I care.

Yep. Enjoyable day out in the sun.

I have a feeling Jander is going to be off this summer too, so wouldn't surprise me if the JWP rumours are true. There's a big opportunity in that German squad at the moment should Klopp become manager for energetic midfielders such as Jander. I think he's going to want to maximise his exposure by going to a top European league with a team possibly in European competition too.

The flip side of the corner argument would be that out movement in the penalty area was terrible

Think this is the key to it. Brighton were obviously looking for a centre half and yet THB was not seemingly under consideration for them. As you say, Leeds maybe will look at him now, but it does seem he is still tainted by that shocking Premier League season.

Would they have taken Downs in exchange?!
