    I remember that shop fondly.  I bought a bundle of Latics programmes from there on my first ever trip to BP in 1980.  Still got them.  Don't know the name of the guy who ran it but if it was Russ Waller he was a nice chap.

    Was that Jim Kirton who ran the shop?

    he was a good guy

    Whilst we're on the subject of programmes, I'm missing the one from the Mansfield game towards the end of last season. Does anyone have a spare which they're willing to sell or know of anywhere I could get one (monitored eBay for the last few weeks but no luck)?

    I’ve got a spare copy if you’re still looking for one?

    This is the first season l’ve ever been calm. I’m honest hoping he goes full on continental and l will turn up from tbe start home n away and back the lads back the gaffer, get on it proper enjoy my days. Really hope it works cos it’s gona be a shit storm if it doesn’t and l’ll be arguing with people until like february cos l’m Mr Fuckin Positive and l really cba.

    Get Maouche on board get a solid champ CDM on the slide play a 3 built round him and two from SolidchampCDM, Missile, Sylla and one more.

    Get an actual striker with Nepo and The Johan Branger either side.

    A whole British back four and two imports.

    Hope Bridges aren’t burnt somewhere for a prem kid keeper. Maybe that chap who played one match.

    That’s it that’s all we need 🙄.

    German? Sounds like some very muddled thinking is going on behind the scenes.

    There will be good and not so good, as in any appointment . 

    The good German appointments in the EFL last season included

     

    Daniel Stendel at barnsley and

     Daniel Farke at Norwich 

    both of whom got promotion

    If he manages to get good young players in, then sells them, how can we get promotion or build a squad. 

    Brentford I think have bought some players relatively cheaply and sold them on for a fair profit, whilst getting promotion to the championship and establishing themselves there. e.g Tarky

     

    stands back and waits for someone with more info than me to shoot this down, as usually happens 😉

    Average League 2 Attendances 18-19 season

     

    Yes, see above.

     

    We probably would get bigger attendances in their position but it doesn't matter because that's not where we are that's a hypothetical situation. Who's support is going is going upwards and who's is deteriorating?

    This one paints a picture too
