Re: Financiers, investors and white knights: What next for FV?
The second thing that concerns me is her preference to talk about Evatt and almost skirt past Schumacher. I get she wanted to maybe try and restore Evatt a little due to earlier performance, but it felt like she didn't want to talk about Schuey and maybe has some reservations. I get the season end ...

Re: Financiers, investors and white knights: What next for FV?
Watched the interview earlier. My reading is she believes Markham was mainly to blame and reluctantly accepted that Evatt needed to go. Two things that worry me from the interview are that come the end of January she reluctantly accepted Evatt going. By then it was bloody obvious he'd lost the fans,...

Re: Financiers, investors and white knights: What next for FV?
Candid interview here from SB; https://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/25319779.bolton-wanderers-chief-sharon-brittan-restructure-error/ Interesting, thanks. You can never tell without seeing/hearing the original tape, but (at least the way it's presented here) it feels like she's blaming Markham mor...

Re: Pre-season 2025
We've often bemoaned other clubs finding hidden gems and making decent money on them after a season or two. I'm hoping we're finally doing that with some of these signings. That said, I'd rather a team of 7 out of 10s with 2-3 of them exceeding that each week, rather than the 3 or 9 out of 10 depend...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread
I think we should be cautiously optimistic. We have a manager that understands what is needed to get promoted from this division and isn't full of shit. Based on what we've seen of preseason he's understood that we need to be more defensively focussed as an 11 and variation in play works. Set pieces...

Re: Pre-season 2025
FFS. I did my first hammy after over 20 years of playing sport. It happens sometimes. Ironically, when I did mine the first time I'd probably warmed up better than usual. I put it down to a slight slope and the onset of becoming an old fart

Live draw? Does anyone give a shit for Premier U21s? Or is it because the U21s are so excited to get drawn with us?

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread
For £1m we'd be daft not to take it. I'm not sure having 2 keepers with a season between them is a particularly good idea. TSL by all accounts had a great season last, but there are no guarantees he follows that up here. We've seen with other players that have done great in one place and been bobbi...
