Although I haven't seen anything substantial from either Esse or JRS in the friendlies (so far) to indicate that OG assessment of them was wrong.

According to Brighty, Lens first serious game is a week b4 our Everton game, so they are a bit ahead of us in terms of pre season training , although to be fair they looked about a month better last night,

The Everton Director of Sport Marcel Brands has publicly stated (about 3 months after the event) that Everton only made one bid for Zaha, circa £52 million, despite lots of news outlets reporting a second bid involving other players to make up a sum of circa £70 million no such second bid was made.

"The football boardroom" is a decent watch / listen on you tube - The last episode I saw covered the Morgan Rodgers transfer in some detail -

The BBC this morning are talking Lacroix at £70m, how much of that is just because its Chelsea who are (allegedly) interested is anyone's guess - still much better than the 47m that was being talked about on here just a few weeks ago. I certainly don't want to lose him but if its certain he is...

I thought he was decent b4 the WC, but considering some of his performances over the last few weeks, if he was going anywhere, I would have thought he would have options

Reminded me of that last game of the season against Bournemouth few seasons ago, which ended 5 : 3 seemed like almost every attack ended with a goal,

or "Peanuts for sixpence"

Nice one Pierre, thanks, always enjoy reading the updates,

Pick up / mark the late arrival of the opposing forward at the far post

As long as that ? If there is a sweep on this can I have Monday the 30th November ?

I would have thought that Hull would have been pretty much a nailed on certainty to be included in anyone's PL version of 3 for relegation.

Presumably this ensures that Dougie freedman wont be going there as the next DoF

If it was going to be anyone it would be Adam Wharton to replace Anderson, as another poster remarked earlier, click bait will have half our team sold to Florist before the season starts.

Well if he thought dealing with SP was challenging then he really is in for a rude awakening up at Florist, especially if they dont start the season well.

It feels about £10 million low because it is, but were looking at it through todays point of view, when we bought Max (Summer 2024) for whatever price we paid (£18 million ?) who would have thought at that time a £47 million release clause wasn't going to be sufficient compensation to last until...

In one of the earlier pieces about this project I thought I read somewhere in the blurb that the new fan zone will be located in the corner between the Holmesdale & the AW stand -

38 league games + a min of 8 Europa league games, assuming that we don't make it to the play off stages or automatic qualification for the knockout stages (according to the palace website) + 2 domestic cups, assuming we get knocked out at the first round = at least 48 games.

Both sides got what they wanted out of the arrangement so there would be no need to be childish over a reference (if one was ever required, lol) anyone likely to employ OG wouldn't have to look very far or very hard, to find enough evidence to make a decision

I am 100% no authority, but I think that as the Europa Conference thingy is the third level of European competition & has only recently been established, I don't think our game on Wednesday has a previously named equivalent -
