Just noticed your new avatar. Nice one ! One of my very favourite photos of Uncle Bob, and off the scale on the Authentic American Iconometer :)

Shame they didn't get on, according to accounts I've read anyhow ...

I'ts defintely up there! Haven't heard that Dylan and Ali didn't get on. I know Dylan said some nice words when Ali passed: https://bobdylan.com/news/bob-dylan-muhammad-ali/
Dylan has visited a lot of boxers in their gyms and has been spotted at many fights. Then there's the songs "Hurricane, Who Killed Davey Moore,I shall be free - probably more I've forgotten.I'm sure you already know this though. Found some interesting articles, and an amazing story on a message board re Dylan's love of boxing:

Absolute bollocks. Just write better articles people want to read, not utter drivel that the only way people will even open it is with clickbait
If the title of an article is boring people are less likely to click on it, the content might be brilliant, but if the title gives away the purpose of the article it won't get any clicks. :)

Yes it will. It will get clicked on by people who want to read about it. Only the dumbest fuckers fall for click bait.

If this is your genuine thoughts, don't plan for a career in journalism.
 
Was mentioned last year when he played at Ross County.
Very impressive vs Celtic in their win at Hampden.

Not been let down so far, wouldn't be surprised if a lower/middle table PL club took a chance.

Surely a title should give a pretty good idea about the purpose of an article?

You sound like someone who doesn't trust the quality of his writing.

This needs input from WalthamstowBlade
 
Been mentioned a lot on here, but he's exactly the type of player we should be going for if we're looking at proven Championship quality.

He'll be attracting interest from a few Championship clubs, but the Brayford situation could put us at an advantage, and we'd be an attractive opportunity for him.
Which were his greatest Motown hits? I seem to have forgotten!
 

has there ever been a serious link to Irvine this close season?
 
If we're in for Coady then don't rule out a move for Irvine.

Similar price range, similar players, both can play in defence or midfield and we were linked with Irvine last summer.

Think Irivine's a bit more attacking from what I've seen. He looks a real star, technically excellent, strong and can go box to box. I'm really surprised someone higher up in the league hasn't taken him on - would've expected a move to somebody like Derby by now. Think he's another that's a bit beyond us at present.

He only became a goalscorer last season, before that he was more of a defensive midfielder and played CB for Ross County on occasions. I don't think we'd use him at CB though.

Same age as Coady as well. Generally I think if you rate Coady, you'll rate Irvine too. They have a lot of the same attributes.

Suspect this could be hard to pull off - were likely to face stronger competition and wouldn't have the benefit of him having played for us already and enjoyed his time here
 
The beard and £2m

what d'ya reckon?

Might not be far off something like that. Probably closer to £3m.

If we got him we'd have two of the fittest players in the division with him and Basham. One in defence and one in midfield. Not many teams would outwork us. Could even put them together in midfield on occasions.

Try to ignore some of the posters who are giving you a hard time. If I see a link to a website I don't like, I don't click it: I see no reason why you should be getting any stick. I can understand people giving you a little "constructive criticism" but I see no reason to insult you.

I've read your article, and I have a bit of feedback (feel free to ignore)

Jackson Irvine, who is valued at £850k on Transfermarkt.
I personally wouldn't use transfermarkt as a source, I think it's clear that they are miles off when it comes to valuations.

The Australian midfielder has also gained international experience, having 10 appearances for Australia, which included him scoring against the United Arab Emirates.
Using Australian and Australia in the same sentence is a little redudant, and reads wrong. Same goes for the use of Wilder in the 1st paragraph.

In my opinion Louis Hobbs is a great writer, leave Louis Hobb alone he's only a young un, don't listen to em Louis Hobbs.
 
While we're on about woeful articles and journalism... anyone on here write for viewfromthejohnstreet? :)
