As per the other thread:
Will be over 50% more expensive than I paid in 2018 (when there was a hike because we went up, and I can accept that).
I cannot accept this. Bookmark the post if you like for when I cave (you never know) but I think I'm done. It can be someone else's problem to spend...
Quite. They don't want me, criticising the club, manager and players, who spends nothing in the ground and only ever buys club shop stuff if it's cheap and I happen to have built up their crappy merchandise cash that I'll lose otherwise.
Problem is you aren't guaranteed to get me back when...
Only about 56% more than I was paying 6 years ago, in the same league, when we had better players and the ground didn't look like a fucking kip.
I think I'll tell them where to go.
I would love to be the OG Doherty hater but it's @Lycan . If I had my old phone from then I could show you a text (old skool) off him incredulous that Andrew Driver was ripping him apart in a Scottish Cup game.
Stunning run of form then too
Cambridge (A) D 1-1
Luton (H) L 1-2
Tranmere (A) L 0-3
Newcastle (A) L 1-2
Bristol City (H) D 0-0
Watford (A) L 1-3
We'd already had a run of 0 wins in 7 before that and the Watford game only takes you into mid-January. Turner really did get by on goodwill and...
The team that day :D My word.

Burke miles out of position and wasted, the slowest back four in the world, Downing...
I think Doc played CH against Blackpool in the League Cup? I didn't go but I remember Gaz going on about it. Scored two as well. Could be a bit like when Ruud Gullit turned himself into a classy libero around 1995.
Being a young man in the late 90s/early 00s I went to Cream in Liverpool a couple of times, on other people's invitation. Loaded and the likes would insist at the time that this was the place to be outside London. Only I don't do pills and I'm ambivalent at best about dance music, and the bars...
As we discussed a few weeks back, the standard of CHs across the board doesn't seem what it was?
Keith Curle only played in the second tier for us and was already nearly 33 when we bought him and yet I don't think I'm being misty-eyed with nostalgia in saying the version we had (let alone what...
Just on this one - it's yet another game where we've had the lion's share of the ball (63% according to the BBC) but have ended up losing. At some point this stops being an odd statistical quirk and becomes an active issue.
Again an issue with all our defenders, none of them are any better than...
If it helps, on Saturday we hit 11 years since we were effectively relegated to L1. The defending on these goals!
(Yes it is Danny Ings scoring against us. Again)
Tosin - £2m in 2020
Andersen - €17.5m in 2021 (granted, this isn't bargain basement but when you look at some of the crap we've bought for more money)
Pinnock - £3m in 2019
Tarkowski - free in 2022 (of course his wages will have taken a hike as a result)
Boly - £5m all in once add ons got paid...
Wouldn't say I agree (he's way, way more aggressive and proactive than Kilman too) but the point being he'd clearly cost a lot of money that we wouldn't pay, whereas the ones I've listed were all pretty cheap when those clubs bought them and aren't massively heralded anywhere. Or in Boly's case...
