The rest of football doesn't hate Boro. People are going to have to let this go at some point.

Bullied by large, physical strikers too, just like Moore (who's first name I forget) in the opening game against Wrexham.

Last season he was dreadful for Newcastle and he was basically the highest earner in our squad, even in the PL. His market is teams down the bottom, who won’t want to commit to his wages long term. It’ll probably end up being a loan late in the window.

At least if he’s sh*t we can tell him to eunt domus.

Supposedly this is the woman who assassinated a Ukrainian submarine commander who defected to Russia. I’ll be honest, I’d probably fall for whatever it was she did to him too.

It's not just thick racists. You can also be a greedy, self serving, arse kissing narcissist who claims any kind of public welfare system is communism, to manipulate thick racists into voting against any kind of tax or environmental policy.

Have they actually said that? He's got absolutely nothing to prove in the Championship.

I think you need to show a bit more respect to a person who has won the Nobel Peace Prize, the Monaco Grand Prix and Eurovision.

You mean a bit like this? https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/news/article/mens-retained-list-published-for-2026 "We would like to express our thanks to each of those players and wish them well for the future."

I’d be massively surprised if there was another striker signed, I think it’s just the way FR worded that tweet. I think we’re most likely to see two departures up front from here on.

Seems like a decent addition for relatively little financial outlay. If we can get double figures out of him that’ll be a very shrewd signing for the season.

It was confirmed when McCarthy and the other out of contract players left. He’s not Rickie Lambert, I can’t see why we’d say anything particularly emotive beyond confirming he’s left the club.

I don't think there was any lack of resources or manpower attributable to the multiclub model. Our problems last time in the Prem stemmed from our DoF buggering off to Man Utd in April and not appointing a replacement for the subsequent transfer window. I can't remember any big money signings for Goztepe in 2024 which detracted from our own recruitment.

Assuming we bring in some form of Larin-esq target man, such as Mubama, I would think the answer is no. Those two will essentially be competing for one place in the team, with Leo, Dobbin, Azaz, Fellows, Matsuki, Edozie and Oyekunle all competing to play in the three behind. That’s assuming DD leaves too.

Very unlikely IMO. Che scored 16 goals last time and JWP is an experienced PL player. I'd bite your hand off for two players that good being in our price range.
