Incoming This Week - commencing Mon 13th July

[Hillsboro Blade]

I feel like I’m in a time portal, it’s 1985, it’s Peter Withe, Ken McNaught, Dennis Mortimer, Phil Thompson…. it’s 2026, it’s Seamus Coleman, Kalvin Phillips, Jairo Riedewald, Joe Rothwell. All you’ll smell at the Lane soon will be stale piss, Werthers Originals and Moggies. I think Wilders trying to beat Mike Bassett for the oldest ever Pro when he picked Benson and Hedges for England when they were 46.

You best go watch your local team then.

That said he even saw fit just over 12 months ago to release Selles. So he does have some sense.

And didn’t decide that because Selles didn’t work out he would never employ another foreign manager, so a big tick for that as well.

Don’t make me think of that 5-0 drubbing at Plough Lane again!!!!

Almost too fast for The Star, it usually takes them longer than that.

Seem to recall that. Wasnt it pissing it down all afternoon onto that very wet and uncovered away end? And then the long trip home after watching us gain another arsehole after Wimbledon kindly tore us another. We were bad that day.

My expectations are incredibly low.

I fully and wholly expect the squad to have a net weaker quality by the end of the window. I think we are where we are now, and despite a period of relative recent success and added income, we don't have much to show for it now. I think we're intent on downgrading to a middling side that can be plucky, rather than competing at the top end of the table.

I think we will hold on to what 'better' players we have and build around who we have, rather than adding any marquee signings and established quality.

Cooper - Tanganga +1 - Jairo +1 - Bamford/Cannon is your spine.

We might bag a few young loanees or a few freebies to supplement the squad, we might be relying on Wilder motivating his squad, grinding out a few results, seasoned pros having a good day, maybe Hamer smashing in a worldy, if he's still here. Fine margins, to win matches and being in with a sniff of playoffs at best. Mid-table at best, with a hint of pluckiness. Certainly not one of the powerhouses in the division. Your best players and any quality are already here, we won't be bettering what we've already got, and it's now more a case of how many we lose along the way.

He forgot to say though, shame everyone on the other end of the phone are either shite or cost more than a bag of crisps to sign, hence none of the dozens of phone calls have come to owt

I think the only way we spend money is if we sell Hamer / Peck / Burrows

Wasn’t it Dennis Wise that tore us to shreds that day? One of his first ever games…

Come come old chap....
There are other things in life apart from dem Blades.
They surely can't be the only reason to stay alive
What about your collection of Dick Emery shows ?

It’s actually an emery paper and his dick video collection.
