    We didn’t win much last season without them either.
     
  2. You can stick your Doucoures up your dirt box sideways. This is the future of the club and I’m liking it a lot. Start of a new era playing good football.

    Is that an official pic or someone's photoshop effort?

    This season could be enjoyable purely for its novelty factor, but if we don't get promoted then any remaining gloss will be well and truly gone by the next one.

    To be fair I imagine many were thinking the same thing when Doucoure became a regular team member, we signed Richarlison and Chalobah returned...

    If you are referring to his stance early in the lockdown period then I think that you are out of order.

    I do get your point, but let's not pretend that those two who weren't named aren't the most theoretically impactful by a long, long way.

    I couldn’t give a ****. No sign that the club have learned enough lessons. I’m not watching tomorrow even though it’s free

    Trouble is some thought he was trying it on as he came back to training about a week later.

    However the whole club had doubts about re-starting (and possibly it affected us ) so we can hardly pin the blame on Troy for his stance.

    I am referring to him not returning to training with the rest of the players in preparation for the last nine games. I thought it was a disgraceful way for our Captain to behave as he could have stayed away from his lad for a couple of weeks if he was concerned about catching the virus and passing it on, and I think he showed a lack of leadership and concern for the club. But of course, you are perfectly entitled to your opinion, and others agree with you. Certainly our team showed a complete lack of unity in our performances since then, and we were a goal or two away from safety. It was a crucial time, and he let his club down.

    And since then Deeney has continued to show that he only thinks of himself - I think he is a poisonous presence in the club and I hope we get rid of him damn quick.

    I think we will have to see what the squad is like come October to see how much "excitement " we can have .

    Based on last night we will be quite weak and it won't be pretty but it's one game ..

    And we did win !!

    Is 'October' the new 'give the coach 10 games to see where we are' or does he get 10 games AFTER October?

    Anyone changed their minds yet?
     
  15. Not excited. Interested. You never know if the club enters admin I might put in a cheeky bid.

    I’m excited to see more of Phillips. Absolute unit.

    Stop writing him off like you do on the "shoutbox" every week after 7 seconds of pitch time.

    I’m disgusted that no one has yet done a proper job on this picture and added at least a Bas and a lurking Vydra.

    Maybe the club are working on the assumption there may well be quite a few Champ clubs going into admin during the season if there is no return to reasonable sized attendances...

    I feel like this could last all season. I vote Harriet The Hornet to be added next. Or Eddie Oshodi.

  32. ‘We can’t have players treating training as a joke‘ is quite a damning comment from Ngakia.

    Absolutely right. Another reason why mass departures would be beneficial.

    There is a lot of hysteria around Deeney and his 'power' at the club but the more I see and hear the more it is a cultural issue by a large % of the squad, not just one or two. Get rid of as many as possible, accept this season will be a mid table finish and begin to rebuild properly.

    Would it be racist to say it looks like the photo is organised in terms of increasing and then decreasing melanin levels?
