    From 'lack of signings = disaster' to 'disrupting a settled side = disaster'

    Can't help but notice that the predominant types of criticism we're reading on here these days is directed at exactly what the critics were demanding a month ago. Right now the doom and gloom story is 'putting all these new players in has disrupted our settled side'. A month ago it was 'this...

    Dom Thompson

    Was awesome today. Great in defense, great going forward, confident in possession, sees the whole pitch and picks out a nice long pass. It's only one match but he looks rock solid; lucky for us if everyone else underestimated him. Hopefully his leg is OK. If he stays fit we might never see...

    Simms sits on bench and watches Everton get walloped by an MLS side

    Everton are on tour of the United States, they were just embarrassed by Minnesota 4-0. Lampard took Simms with him but didn't play him, even with unlimited substitutions and a team falling apart before his eyes. Their other young striker, Dobbin, got half an hour, so he's higher on the pecking...

    Is it harder to negotiate a contract buyout with a team in administration?

    Not sure if this has come up, but could the delay over Rosenior simply be a function of who Sadler has to negotiate with right now?

    Leeds exec: financial redistribution in football is 'Maoist'

    https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/59481154 Rhetoric like this just blows me away. Football clubs aren't like traditional competitors in a market setting - they need each other in order to be successful! Collectivism is inherent to organized sport. And the prem engage in plenty of...

    Who we've played vs. who we haven't played

    I was looking at our upcoming schedule and noticed we don't seem to have many high-flying teams left in the 1st half of the season. Thought it would be informative to go through the table and label teams as ones we've played (Y) or ones we haven't played (N) 1. Bournemouth (Y) 2. Fulham (Y) 3...

    Tangerine TV - things that can be improved

    I think TTV's roll out has been good on the whole. But there's room for improvement. I'm gonna be sending in some friendly "suggestions for improvement" to whoever reads the customer service email (which I'm sure they'll just love and implement immediately), and I'm wondering if anyone here...
