Whoa whoa whoa wait a minute…….who said anything about ‘battling’?

Going to be the worst season in years but we have 3 stunning kits at least

Random one but I wouldn’t be too surprised to see Pears go the Derrick Williams route and head stateside at some point. Think his Mrs lives or is from LA and he looked like he spent his summer there, could see him looking to get a move in the future. Not that it would be a huge issue we’d just backfill with Rochdale’s reserve under 21

I can see him hanging his boots up soon, lost his spark and think attention is elsewhere

I haven’t bought a football shirt for myself for a long time but I went and got this today; genuinely think it’s great for summer holidays. I anticipate we’ll sell out (not saying much given our usual stock) and will be one of the most popular kits in ages. Will probably get my daughter one as well. Macron certainly delivering the hits more than misses!

I don’t think my house is on it - no buy

I think I love it

If that was true it’s the most damning indictment so far. May scrape enough for a percentage of £500k Just put us to pasture now!

Truly absurd, I’ve never seen anything like it at this level

The noise went quiet without the club having to comment on it, think they got away with that one

Always nice when pre season properly starts, be good to see the new kit in all its glory Sacha Petshi to start

Could you stick to transfers please chap

Millie Chandarana has now said she’s decided to move on as well, wonder if anyone with any potential will now be gone

That time we did the £10k prize draw when we passed a number of season ticket sales, is that cumulative? Any day now!

But is there any transfer news???

Good luck to the lad, really wanted him to be brilliant, good or at least half decent, sadly he showed a lack of fundamental assets a keeper needs. A worthwhile experiment but one thats right to end. Pears is barely any better though if at all!

That is oddly specific, but ok I’m not active nearly as much these days but I’ve been a mod here for near 15 years. This isn’t a forum to cater to any one posters ideals. This thread is often the most populated in pre season and often discussion will naturally wander and this story is 100% relevant to the current plight, much more so than some random tenuous link Nicko will fill a column with. If we discussed purely transfers in here we would have 5 pages discussing a young Irish lad coming in, Ruddy being a target, a bit about some scholars and Leo leaving.

No You aren’t the boss, open your eyes and look at the bigger picture

As much as it’s disgusting news I’m enjoying the fact it’s shining a light on Waggot and Venkys and they are getting some deserved pelters

I think we could genuinely stumble our way to the final here, there’s no real stand out teams, Spain look decent but nobody to fear

Ah that’s a typo - what they mean is bigger THAN 2012 - when we had no sponsor so gave it to the Princes Trust 😛

A startling (who am I kidding?) lack of imagination but much better than the vapers, red always looks good on the home kit and they were decent enough when I moved house a couple years back

Was there no period for new buyers to get seats not taken up by existing holders at the cheaper price? Seems a missed opportunity as there may be some tempting seats that come up

Yes they said we had ‘smashed’ last years early bird sales

When do the unclaimed seats go on open sale?
