Rumour has it that we are trying to sign Farai Hallam.

Not the way I saw it (and I really like Beck who was electric in the early part of the season). Looked off the pace at times and gets away with murder in terms of shirt pulling and pushes. (But the ref let a lot of that go last night).

So no new money then?

Not any more. Player sales does.

Or you take the cheapos and make your best case to justify/talk them up.

To spend as little as possible.

Ice cream cornet?

Ferguson: Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has hit out at the power of agents in football, singling out SEM Group managing director Jerome Anderson. ‘You’ve got that issue at Blackburn of an agent involved and deciding the future of the club, Jerome Anderson, he couldn’t pick his nose.' ‘It’s baffling and it’s a serious threat to how clubs get run and how they conduct themselves.'

Would JE be able to understand him?

You know the answer of course OC. 🙂

Le Tiss for me. But choose one of these. Tuguy.

Not just an old rough and tumble full back then TS. 😉

What you want and what you get... You can't always get...

Happy clapper refugee/plant from LET letters page?

Agreed. But then who do you start up top given Ohashi is injured? Leonard was unpickable really after the game against Leeds (evidenced by JE subbing him in short order after he had used him as a sub). Dolan and shift around elsewhere?

Sadly plenty of them now in the JW.

Overachieved first half of season. Bravo JE. Chickens now coming home to roost. Same old. Gave it a good go but reality biting. On the things you can control:- Crossing/set pieces woeful I also agree JE took a gamble on selection –could have stuck to a more conservative line up with Hedges, JRC.

Gonna be feisty I would say. Need to be at it but smart – a sending off and its game over usually. JRC could do well in this game. Beck and Gueye need to be careful –naturally nouty but mustn’t overdo it. Don’t make it easy for the ref to give a pen. Don’t think any snow around –lots of rain early am but ok for the game. A little chilly but atmosphere to be red hot. 😃 2-1?

But they won't ask because the Rao's have already told them to spend as little as possible.

Wasn't Farke at the top of people's list here for manager before JDT came?
