If David Luiz is worth £30+ million then Locks is worth £10 million.

Time seems to be runniong out for any decent laon signings so you sense if we do sign anybody it'll be anothert two bench warmers. It'll be interesting tosee if DC can pull this season around again, or the doom merchants are finally proven right. You do realise it's still August?
It's the same sh*t as last season, and the same sh*t as the season before that. We start slowly and DC is clueless, our players aren't good enough, and there's no money. Then the squad kicks in to gear and things pick up and we strengthen in January before going on an excellent run and DC's the messiah again. Fickle isn't the word. Some on here make Arsenal fans seem level-headed.

Not really. Rovers av 9,600. Wimbledon 4,400. So they should have just under 50% what we did, especially allowing for away fans. 1,419-69=1,350. 461-69(est.)=392. In reality they had a 29% of what we did. Rovers 14% of av. Wimbledon 9%. that's what you get for quoting Stephen Hawking! Well, I did say "roughly"

Blackpool have moving full blast out the speaker whilst the match is being played. Sounds more like an acid rave than a football match! Love this, just seen a video on tw@er and it's really given the game the atmosphere it deserves. For the next round of games every club should play a crowd track to remind everyone what they can look forward to when they've successfully ripped the soul out of every club outside of the premier league.

1400 people turned up to that. The rest of the country has showed how it is done. We are out of touch. No surprise really. Wimbledon, a club that know what's at stake with football authorities: Attendance 461 - well done to the Dons. As a percentage of their avg home gate that's probably roughly the same as our attendance tonight.

What an absolute shambles this whole thing is. How can the EFL be so completely and utterly out of touch?

Was looking forward to going to the rearranged effort but they've got no chance now. Can only hope we double the away ticket prices for their return to the Mem later in the season. I don't get the logic of this, we'd be punishing their fans for a decision which was nothing to do with them, and which they are also complaining about. For the first time in my life I actually find myself feeling something other than contempt for Swindle fans. This is going to make them look very silly and the overwhelming majority seem just as outraged as we are. Imagine having that horrible cockney weasel as your owner...

Don't go. The boys can still do the business and STFC have to foot the bill for a 'Category A' game with no away fans.

Anyone got the 6th sense to come up with the correct line -up for tomorrow ? Here goes - but probably will be totally wrong: It's the team I would like to see based on going for a win from the start Roos J Clarke Lockyer Hartley Brown Bodin Lines Sinclair Montano Taylor Harrison Bench (even harder to call !!) Easter, Gaffney, Mildenhall, Roberts, Leadbitter, O Clarke, Moore Roos J Clarke Locks Hartley Brown Lines O Clarke Bodin Easter Monty Taylor Would be my line up. Expect to see Mildy Roberts J Clarke Locks Hartley Brown Lines Sinclair O Clarke Taylor Harrison

we have now signed byron moore,peter hartley,luke james,kelle roos and connor roberts. i think some fans were thinking that with the new owner we would be paying fees for a couple of championship class players but its become obvious that sort of money isnt available for the team.but we kept all our best players from last season and have made these signings so the owner has hardly been stingy with the cash. will these players improve the team? nobody knows yet as we havnt seen enough of them but we will find out in the next few months so heres hoping. Know that for a fact do you? Came here to ask exactly that. I don't think Wael/the Al Qadis are as wealthy as some have made them out to be but they obviously have a bit of dosh. However I'm confused as to why us not spending = not having money to spend. It's not exactly DC's M.O to splash the cash. To paraphrase what's been said previously in this thread, "if they're good enough for Clarke they're good enough for me", why spend for spend's sake? It's actually quite impressive that some have the confidence to come on here and insinuate that they know enough to question Darrell's work.

might we have got more had we gone to Scunthorpe? Quite possibly, had we beaten them like C*ty did.

Is that the video where the bloke filming is desperately trying to sound like Danny Dyer? yes that's the one, he is also hiding behind the coppers whilst shouting all this fowl language What a chicken.

Trouble is that after 2 promotions DC's budget doesnt seem to have increased. 'Evolution not revolution' sounds like a clever way of saying 'no funds are available' ? Based on what? I'd imagine the whole squad is on more than last season.

It never happens but it is continuous and constant? Ok then I think what you're trying to say is that it never ends? Which, if you favour a pragmatic approach, is a good thing. I propose an EvolutionNotRevolution hashtag on next season's kits... Yeah I suppose what I should have said is that evolution could potentially take forever with little to no discernable progress. Well, that's certainly a possibility, but for me that's a better option than a revolution which ends with a despotic tyrant. At least "little to no discernable progress" will mean we've still got the club we know and love

Sounds like a transfer rumour for transfer rumour's sake to me. I personally think that if we're top 10 at Christmas Taylor will stay.

This puts everything into perspective R I P and heart felt condolences to Joes parents and family I'm sure the applause will ring around the Mem at 24 minutes tomorrow It really does but it also serves as a reminder as to why football is so very important to so many. It hurts so much when you hear of the passing of a gashead, young or old. The bond shared by supporters of a football club is real; even if it is often dismissed as tribalism we know it's much more than that. This extends to the wider footballing community but it's so much worse when it's one of your own.
