Lots of loss cutting going to happen this summer. Maybe with the energy crises,the price of deadwood might be high.

My gas bill is looking better value than this crap.

Can anyone state what "our" standard is ?

An old bird of mine had a fetish about cucumbers,personally I found them utterly tasteless.

From a truly shite Croatian corner.

No luck yet again,but sometimes you just need to be good enough that luck gets taken out of the equation.

Yep,think we know already how this ends.

I think it's now starting to sink in,probably too late though.

Just the sort of turgid crap that I expected.

They're called "Westwood Whoppers" apparently.

Time to get real.

Unfortunately after 6 weeks nothing will change. The only hope will be what the owners achieve in January,and personally iam not expecting anything. Someone stick a fork in this club ,because I think it's done.

Fails to happen in so many games for it to be down to luck,unfortunately.

Not necessarily too poor for this league,but probably too naive.

The owners are obviously not bothered that their investment is going down the bog so let them crack on.

S-Clarke. The Dell and it's associated infrastructure was nothing but sheds but the development of youth into decent,top level players was far greater than what we are producing now,why is that? Better scouting and coaching staff in those days perhaps? Saint86 I am not saying that any development in the training facilities is a bad thing,far from it ,but if there is a lack of experience as mentioned above it will not fulfil its potential. Tunit. You are correct in your assumption of not watching the U18 & U23 teams,but compared to pre Staplewood days,how many of these are graduating to acceptable first team regulars compared to when the training facilities were more primitive ? A lot,lot less,again why is that ? Despite it seeming compulsory these days,sorry but I don't have an interest in the women's game,do you see that as a particular problem ? As for the sausage roll analogy,I can only say that I do envy people such as yourself that are content with second best.

You can enlarge the factory all you like but it doesn't necessarily improve the product.

Unless it's an upgrade on the scouting / coach or staff then why bother. Had very little of this year's ago but produced far more talent than now. Human knowledge experience and ability is what seems lacking about the place,not state of the art tech.

" Imagine being us " ,actually I think I can !

Pre match entertainment seems a bit Spanish,are they going to even if up by showing someone in a tracksuit nicking a Cortina ?

Madrid fans without tickets have stayed at home in order to afford their gas bills.

There's a very real chance it will work out much more expensive if he STAYS.

First priority is to have owners that want more than just make a profit on their investment. Not convinced this part has been achieved yet.

You're surprised at Saints not paying 30M for a player ?

Yep,1 sub a minute after every goal conceeded. But only after 60minutes of course.
