I feel a bit sorry for these lads.

They’ve got caught up in a glorified human trafficking exercise and ended up being shipped left and right in no time, having very little opportunity to set down roots and plan.

Bulgaria-Sheffield-Athens

I can’t say Antalya is the worst place to spend the English winter; it’s basically the Turkish Riviera and I’m sure Athens is far nicer than S2 this time of year. Not so sure about Fife, mind you.

They are very much the victims in this whole experiment. Hopefully they can get settled somewhere. I appreciate their chosen profession can be nomadic by nature but from a human side I hope they can get some stability.

I dare say the same may occur with Polendakov, though at 18, you’d hope they have a bit more patience with him.

Nwachukwu was literally named in a trafficking article! https://www.playthegame.org/news/th...ub-ownership-leave-football-exposed-to-crime/

I sincerely hope Ukaki and Nwachukwu were onboard with the loans, but the way they were suddenly frozen out after making numerous development squads leaves a bit of a sour taste, like they'll be left on the scrapheap sooner rather than later.

It does feel that there would be an underlying desire to not embrace anything that had Bord’s name tagged to it.

Can’t say I totally blame that as a human reaction but you’d like to think Wilder and Knill would be bigger than that.

From what I saw in pre-season games, I’m struggling to think Ukaki would have offered less than Chong has done.

True story.

We missed out on a couple of deadline day signings waiting for the page to scroll back to 21/23…

Same with everything. We're still operating out of a former WMC when our peers have utilised their PL income to revolutionise their training bases.

Only thing I'd say might actually be working is the medical intelligence as we seem to have had far fewer training ground injuries this season.

Nowt wrong with operating out of a WMC.

Mousset used to win the meat raffle on a regular basis and the pre-season club trips to Skegness were a big hit…

Chong has played at a much higher level than ukaki ever will

And how is that relevant to his comment?
