Re: Bijou Bob's Bargain Basement Buys - Jan transfer thread
At the time, I thought it was a terrible decision to sell Cahill. Still do, obviously. We're fighting relegation, and sell our best defender (and possibly - our best player at the time). That has always irked me to this day. Can't help but think if we hadn't sold Cahill in January, he would have ke...

Re: Red v white, a thorny contest - Leeds United (H) 10/01/1
It wasn't a great game, but I do think some of us are going a bit OTT with this rending of garments and tearing of hair... Under Freedman, I'd have called this a decent show - doubt if I'd have been alone. I'm no great fan of Trotter (and his lack of mobility is a major flaw) but I don't think he wa...

Re: Red v white, a thorny contest - Leeds United (H) 10/01/1
We were fairly poor today - though with occasional promising moments. I thought Vela was our best player. Two differences between Lenin and Freedman - one is we battled for and fully earned a point, despite being under par. The other is the manager nailed our failings in his post-match interview (ra...

The Imitation Game. Decent Thought it was better than decent and Boneydick Cummerbund put in a fine performance (along with several of the supporting cast - Rory Kinnear underused, though).

Re: Bijou Bob's Bargain Basement Buys - Jan transfer thread
I'll paint my cock and bollocks in Nitromors if we get anything like £1.5m for him. Take the tinters off and think about it. £1.5m for a player that a side will get, at the most, three months out of before he's available on a free? Apparently, an appeal on Kickstarter has already raised £1/4m towar...

Re: Bijou Bob's Bargain Basement Buys - Jan transfer thread
Chungy wouldn't be the only player to struggle under Dougie and add in a bad injury and I don't think he should be judged harshly. He understandably wants to play at a higher level that he is capable of and realistically we aren't going to be going anywhere this season. If Lennon continues as well ...

Hello, I'm From Israel. There are a reports here that Maccabi Haifa is closing to sign Medo (on loan probably). What can you tell about this player? What is your's impression from him?

Re: Bijou Bob's Bargain Basement Buys - Jan transfer thread
It's likely that we have seen the last of chungy. The club want to get something for him rather than his contract run down. He isn't signing a new one. Can't argue with that. Wonder how history will remember him. I'd really hope the fans would view him as one of our best recent signings. His dreadf...
