Looking back at the highlights Edmundson looks suspect a couple of times

Theirs aren't selling too well by all accounts. 

FA Cup Second Round against a beatable side. Bizarre.

I expected us to sell this out to be honest but still 150 to shift

Is our end uncovered?

No idea why but I was pissing myself at them replies

I have never seen a worse footballer looking footballer than Ollie Banks.

He has heart, is talented, physically can put himself about, yet he’s absolutely gash

It’s impressive, really

Banks was always a worse player the harder he tried

He meant at Prenton Park. Played 9, won 6, drawn 2 and lost 1 and only let in 3 goals. They're 3rd in the Home League Table.

 

Pretty impressive to be fair. Not played against Chris O’Grady and Ishy Miller yet though, have they

Are ye on the WhatsApp group?

Clearly just being in the South isn’t automatic membership!

Going to try my hardest to find a bar in Japan which will show the game.

Doubly devastated because I became an OASIS member only last week...

Missilou is Dean Furman II. Crab.

Surridge superb. Threat every time he picks up the ball.

Rather see Baxter play the first 45 than the second. 

Never met o4u but he was a massive presence on here, and the blog which he wrote only further emboldened my respect for him.

Very sad news. His attitude towards this has been inspirational. RIP.

Whatever we were paying and doing for Menig, it wasn't enough for him. He wasn't happy about his hotel and wanted putting in a more luxurious one and wanted a top of the range car...

I wanted him to score a screamer every week n all, the cock

He’s alright.

So happy about this.

Everything you want from a lad who plays for your club

That Sparta blue v-neck was a great shirt.  Eyresy signed my daughter's shirt and my bestman got the whole team to sign one for my wedding.  

Great present if you like it, but I can’t stand signed football shirts...

Vandalism!

Scott Golbourne released by Bristol City would be a decent signing.

Its gonna take us quite a while to adjust to League 2 status, I sense...

I'm not sure anyone has been unlucky really, Shelvey is a walking red card and not great either.

 

I think Welbeck is the biggest surprise inclusion for me, he's almost permanently injured, probably a reflection on the alternatives  TBH.

 

Lallana is never fit, and you could guarantee if he was fit to start the first game he wouldn't be fit to start the second.

 

Wilshere always likely to break down at any moment. I have no problem not taking perennial crocks.

 

I think the squad looks desperately short of quality, especially in midfield, think we will do well to get out of the group, certainly no better than that.

Wilshere is perhaps the only one whose selection I’m bothered enough to get irked about, because he’s actually a very good player

Injury prone it’s true, but we’re so lacking in quality and dynamism in midfield - he offers both. The whole point of being allowed a big squad is that you can take a few crocks.

It’s common knowledge we’re shit.

Two bald men fighting over a comb if you’re getting upset at Jonjo Shelvey being left out at the expense of Jesse Lingard or Eric Dier

In Hansard. Massive, aren't we? 

That’s absolutely magnificent.

Thanks all.

Are there any photos knocking about? He’s one of them in suits

I remember reading on here a while back about some insane pre-season tour we did  to an African dictatorship in the 70s/80s(?) when Ken Bates was Chairman.

Anybody got any info on that or am I dreaming?

I’d take him for some continuity. I know we were poor and that probably exaggerated his performances but he begun the season well and definitely played in a more advanced role than the one he sagged into as the season progressed. 

I remember him posing a real threat from the midfield even up to and including Doyle’s first few games, then it just dissipated as he suffered a downturn, which he never seemed to recover from.

Think he’ll be really disappointed with his goal return this season.

Is anybody else struggling to watch the play offs this year cos of what happened to us...

Must be a manufacturer-driven thing. It used to be the case 10 years ago that a kit would be for 2 years or so, but I reckon 99% of FL clubs will have a new kit in August. 

Almost every club does. Generally the away shirt rolls on to the next season as the third shirt, but naturally Nike or Adidas wouldn’t want their templates to lag behind for a year longer than the big clubs
