Dave

His best material is in the wrong company. Sammy, Jericho, Jungle Boy, Bucks, Matt Hardy's wife, Darby etc.

Our owner situation is still looking messy. John Textor has made it known publicly he still wants to sell his 45% stake this season. He doesn't like not having the final say when he's the majority owner because of the other three don't agree with his long term philosophies. What's new news this month is that potential bidders are put off by the fact they'd be passive investors as Steve Parish still has the final say in football matters. Steve Parish has been a very good guardian for the club since we came out of administration. You could argue he's actually been exceptional to take the club from Championship relegation favourites to mid level Premier League for a decade and becoming the spokesperson for the 14 clubs against the greedy six. I'm sure he will do what's best for the club, but him selling his 10% or losing his majority could have ramifications for everybody given his influence in chairman PL meetings.

There has to be a fairer way to implement FFP. FFP is extremely important for clubs with owners who spend beyond there means. But for sides like Newcastle, or even lower down the pyramid the likes of Bristol City and Stoke City who have owners who are willing to finance the football operation with no loans with interest. They shouldn't be handicapped to the likes of Chelsea because of where the club were positioned in 2013.

Yeah that promo before The Rock came out was good. Being a fan of Jinder was not on my 2024 bingo card.

We don't use ü when conferring as we're spoilt.

Given his age and raw talents I think he'd be a good asset for several bottom half clubs, ourselves included. It hasn't worked at Leeds United and given his behaviour in the summer I doubt it but the front four they have just suit each other very well. I think he'd be a better fit for somebody like us who could use a pacey direct player on the left side of up top.

So what percentage of female football pundits do we reckon knew it was Franz and not Frank Beckenbauer?

Tony Khan still msming it impossible to root for him. Last week he thought it was appropriate to look like this when he knew he was going to be asked questions about sexual harassment in his work place that he allegedly covered up. This week he's taking shots at WWE because USA Networks twitter account mocked Cagematch.

Another off the Brighton conveyor belt.

Any chance Casadei just slots in there?

Yeah, feels like a good short term solution for everybody.

Interesting that. Palace fans have latched on to some random hope that wed be interested. With Palace I'd question if he has enough to influence our XI but with Brentford I think they'd mould him in to a good player over time. Even though Brentford have more squad depth and he'd initially get less game time.

Since Twitter went to X its caused problems. Replace X with Twitter, cut the link and then paste again, I find that works.

I'd quite like to see Rock vs Reigns setting PLE records in Australia and Cody beating Reigns at Mania. But I can't see The Rock going from refusing to lose to Reigns at WrestleMania 39 to agreeing to lose to Reigns at a lesser PLE 11 months later. Plus Triple H has a fetish for all his Champions to hold titles forever so I imagine Roman Reigns will beat The Rock at WrestleMania, have another break, pass Hulk Hogan's record and then lose to Cody at Summerslam.

The fact that it's in the public domain is presumably an attempt to flush out other interest. West Ham have been interested previously. If they do want the loan back they're going to have to compromise on the fee. He has 18 months left on his contract, 12 in the summer, and if they don't get promoted they'll be forced to sell because they are in financial problems. I'd imagine the reality is they would quite like the money for the deal with 18 months left rather than 12, but still want him because they could get promoted. If we can't offload one of Tomkins or Ferguson I would be happy with a loan back. It sounds like Ronnie Edwards is a future England International and would be a great long term addition, but we've got too many defenders registered at present because we decided to keep the deadwood last summer and add to it with Rob Holding.

Stoke have a knack of signing players that I'm impressed with and then they seemingly go on to do nothing.

Reading more in to this, whilst i think you have been harshly treated, im not sure you can link the two together. It's not a crime to be Russian but it is sanctionable to have links to Putin.
