There'll be a few of these knocking about, then.

As posted by me 3 days ago , eh @Bod 😚

Football is shit isn't. It all feels so cold, signing multiple players I've never heard of. Stepping up a huge level that makes a big overhaul necessary. It's hard to give a shit.

CharlieG

Foxy_Dread Lighten up, lad. It's going to be fun...🤔

Foxy_Dread

Out of interest would you make use of relegation escape clauses to get the players you want?

I wouldn't, and I'd expect them to sign with a wage reduction for relegation written into the contract.

No fucker would sign though.

CBIT

One fo you @Foxy_Dread

I just find it hard to wank myself silly over a load of players who mean nothing to me.

They could be brilliant and moving on in a season, they could be reasonable journeymen and do a couple of seasons, or they could be half arsed mercenary fuckers who we will be loaning out in desperation after relegation.

I'm one for numbers but it sort of makes preseason a trainspotters yawn fest.

Bring back the randomness of crazy managers buying players for the size of their bung. The good old days.

It's important to get a balance of new blood for the challenge ahead whilst keeping the nucleus and spirit of last season. I think the recruitment so far has been measured and sensible and I'd be delighted with Longstaff if we get him.

Harvest Likewise though hard to be sure until we see them play. Kristianson looked a decent acquisition until he got on the pitch. Love the fact that both reserve fullbacks are happy on either side. Just hoping they've confiscated Brendy's Alice band and locked him in the weights room. The lad from Newcastle and then a a serious striker and we are at the races.

I’d be happy if we bought Fulminense. Reckon they could keep us up and there’d be sheds load of money left over for season two.

Also, it’s fucking mad playing football in that heat.

Yeah, but could they do it on a cold Tuesday night in Burnley?

Jon

Kevin_Stapleton Very good.

Bod

They'll be giving Bamford a new contract next.

Mitaman

They could be all of the above. Part of the fun of any season is seeing it all unfold. When you sign players, you throw the dice in the air to a large extent, lets see where they land.

How long until the kop is singing

for your data analysis
Ooooooh N-iiiiigel"

Foxy_Dread

I wished for a mathematical future and I don't like it.

Raposa I'm sorry.

Mega_Armageddon_Chickens

It'll never match the excitement of 86 when we signed Keith Edwards, Russell Doig, John Buckley, Jackie Ashurst and Ronnie Sinclair that's for sure.

Harvest

Mega_Armageddon_Chickens When Jack Ashurst came on board my mate was heard to remark, 'Fuck me, we've signed a trade union leader.'

Odd_Job

Harvest he was deceptively effective
