Have often wondered why we haven’t gone for quarters or r/w halves. Be quite happy with that ( but no plain back ffs). But I suspect the manufacturers and club are concerned how this detracts from the sponsor logo etc.

I don’t see the fascination for the navy blue, but not totally against it. As for the shirts - has to be stripes both sides for me. If not then I’d give up on stripes altogether. Annual plea for the Keegan era shirt to return from me as well.

Really hope not, one of our worst ever. That kit, and the red abominations under Cortese should be confined to the anal(l)s of history and never be seen again.

Sweepstake on when he goes off injured perhaps ? Random - 57 minutes

I expect Matsuki could be described as having a ‘jap’s eye’. In case that helps.

Seems a good summary of where we are, and the crossroads Dragan has reached

Apart from the history of appointments. They’ve had two opportunities to appoint a ‘proper manager’ in the last twelve months and both times have appointed young coaches to a position beyond their experience. Looks fairly good circumstantial evidence or track record to show the sort of ‘head coach’ they want.

He may not be putting the cones out at Staplewood or doing anything on a daily basis, but his influence seems to be all over the football side, with the data driven approach etc. Unless of course you know otherwise (from another reliable source you can share perhaps?)

Why not ? This is Rasmus and Sports Republic.

Nivea, Garner ? They’re already jostling for position.

And left Still in place for about a month too long. (Six months in my book).

All roads lead to Rasmus. He should be the focus of the fans protests to begin with. Have to wonder, what autonomy if any Spors has.

Would be ludicrous to let AA leave in January. Caveat - depending on replacement lines up, but no one would trust these fuckers to sign a striker we could rely on. AA has flaws but better than anything else we’ve got. As you say, Archer, and an unfit Stewart for half a season. L1 here we come.

Did the stats say Larios was 6’ , or did the algorithm suggest a growth spurt ?

Rightly or wrongly you have been noticed as defending SR and ,perhaps if only trying to add some balance, Rasmus. It isn’t speculation to see how we’ve done or where we might be heading with the current set up. Our downward trajectory over the time SR have been here will attract negative posts, and the prominent people in this process such as Rasmus will be the focus of fans anger. It does seem they have a reverse ‘Midas effect’, and most things they touch (manager appointments, player recruitment) turn to shit. Can you defend their record, or see them turning it round ? Interested in your last comment. Personally, I’m not bothered by SR ownership, but - from what we see from the outside - they need to bin the current stats approach and ‘head coach’ bollocks. And from everything read that includes a big ‘Fuck Off’ to Rasmus.
