The concept of, "ordinary cook," has moved quite some way since Lloyd Grossman was doing the show

This subject always pulls out some strange comments on all sides. How well would most current Premiership teams do if you took their (and only their) TV money and replaced it with Scottish levels? Celtic would immediately be one of the richest clubs if they were in England (which I don't want or expect)

Special mention

Who knows, maybe it was just a down payment. Or being Scottish maybe he can make cash go a long way

It seemed crazy, if that was the only envelope from that deal and it was the only deal he's done...

We were chatting football with a Porto fan in Paris this week, he asked us our thoughts on Mourinho, then he just said, "Solkjaer," and we all spontaneously burst out laughing

But can he do it in a Clio on a wet Saturday in Oldham?

Nope, they can't. First Amendment.

Ladapo wanted balls passed (or to use the technical term, "threaded,") through behind the defence. What he got was hoofballs. He'd have been equally as shit with us now or with Uncle Ronald.

They absolutely loved him at Caley Thistle

Didn't realise that. Wasn't he said to have struggled to stay fit with Everton as well? You have to worry if his body is up to it any more

Baxter was getting back to being worth a starting place last season, much more than that is wishful thinking and how shit we were IMO. Oddly he looked better coming back from longish injury, he was running like a bag of bones at the start of it.

Something we specialise in after 9 pints (and it doesn't on the second bit)

Can I firstly point out that, "We want Abdallah out," doesn't work, whereas Lemmy fits perfectly? Can't blame players who've been told that a professional English club thinks they've got something about them and is offering them a chance. Also can't blame them if the contract is for far more than they would come for. If Lemmy left tomorrow we'd have the same squad, and we'll need some very average players to give it everything if we're going to stay up.

First game and I'm going to try and only make positives. Fage looks like the real deal, ready to go. Eagles looks fitter than anyone in our division, which I really wasn't expecting. Nepo still good for at least this level. Desire will be a nuisance up front. Quite a bit else, but for another time.
