I had issues like that a while back and ultimately had to do a complete (like, really dig in!) cache clear in my browser(s) to make it work again. Let me know.

*looks at my pick of Candi Staton*

  Fair point.

I suppose my old-man music is really more just 90/00's Indie. I'll be at the front for Editors, too!

They've just announced Badly Drawn Boy on the Acoustic stage... now we're cooking! Who needs all this modern crap? Some scally in a bobble hat will do for me!  

Cheers lads - knew you'd be good for some solid advice. Will get listening to some of those I don't recognise, to help make decisions on the day.

You'll perhaps not be surprised to know I had a fair few of those on my list - I'm very excited about seeing The Big Moon and Gabriels from your list J. From your's Matt I'm fairly sure Hot Chip clashes with Elton, which is a shame. But Say She She are belting, will be giving them a go! 

Along those lines I am really hoping Joseph show up on the full list when that comes out next(ish) week - they are absolutely brilliant! 

Probably thinking of @Matt and @Frankly Mr Shankly when I ask this... Anyone you have seen on the Glastonbury lineup this year that you'd suggest, that I may otherwise have missed?  

Morning gang. This thread is (was...) an ongoing signing rumours page, for throughout the season. I will lock it (for now, if someone reminds me) in place of the one below - just to save you all having to look in two places at once for basically the same conversation. 

I'm loving the new album!

I’m sure I read prior to him coming that it’s common knowledge his mrs has a major say and he needs to be near liverpool. Can’t see this happening. 

It's what, a mere 3 hour drive? Less outside of rushhour! He'll be fine Mrs Undsworth! To be honest, I could name a dozen Latics fans who'd be willing to do a free taxi service for him there and back every day for the first six months, if that's any kind of deal breaker....

...also held his hands up regarding his tactics, then he might get some leeway from the fans.

This is his biggest problem, off the pitch. He comes across like his shit don't stink. And given the budget and league position that's a bold strategy.

Is taking ownership of your mistakes something that can be taught at his age?

Yes. But it's a rough road and I've seen nothing to suggest he's on it!

He doesn't help himself with his post match comments, does he...?

Don't know what you're on about... he strikes me as the kind of quick witted and decisive man to lead us in to the National League North. He'll get us there, we just have to back him... 

Let's stop all the personal comments please everyone.

Anyone can post here, everyone has anonymity, we know some people have multiple accounts, we know some people move from Account A to Account B, we know some people connect their online accounts by name and others who don't.

None of it matters. Debate the point, not the person. 

We can't stop you abusing Undsworth, but we can stop you abusing each other. Please be kind, it's a tough time and we all want what's best for the club. Heated exchanges and differing opinions are one thing, outright childish insults are another.

And we all know I hate moderating shit, so be nice!

Ta.

Maybe but why bring in players like Peck then? Surely the purpose of an Academy is to provide a pathway and blood players?, this was never going to happen under Unsworth, for me it's short sighted and begs the question is it really worth having particularly under a manager who only seems interested in you if you are dating the daughter.

First - I think Undsworth has thus far proved to be entirely fucking useless. This isn't a defence of him. 

However, one potential explanation for something like that is as simple as we wanted to sell him.  If you know he's a bit light and could be found out you don't want to expose that whilst a Championship team is thinking of giving you up to 100 grand. Let them worry about that when he's their problem.

well maybe he is then and we are stayin 352

I'm not a massive fan, but equally there's nothing inherently wrong with that. The formation (alone) hasn't been the issue. The issue has been that 9 of the 10 outfield players have been within 10 yards of the back 3 and the wingbacks haven't left their own defensive line (never mind their own half!) in that entire time.  If, as the Stockport fans suggest, this lad can actually get up and down the pitch then he could dramatically improve what a back 3/5 looks like.

The recent Dion Dublin one is a belter.

Apparently he was good ON the ball…

From what I've seen this season we never have it, so I don't get your point?

Unsworth talked about that a little here, with the Oldham Times.

Also mentions how Frank was down the training ground fixing a gate. They've made mistakes and are not perfect, but there's so many positives to be had if we just take a deep breath and accept this takes time.

Typo. He meant Singing. Loves a power ballad.

9 goals this season, still only 29yo.

Worth keeping in mind he's from a short drive away from Ebbsfleet. May not want to uproot his family at this stage. 

From what I know of it, and I could be wrong, it was more the 'club' who basically sold him down the river on a promise of a new deal. Which they pulled from under him abruptly and rudely.

I liked Warney as a player, I'm really glad he's doing well.

The way he was treated by us at the end was atrocious. Coupled that with his playing style and like yourself I've always looked out for him and his teams, and I'm absolutely delighted with how well he's doing.

You know who you are. And it was bloody funny - I will give you that. But sod off!  

As you were, if you can be civil and on-topic.
