Re: Speculation Wells Wells Wells

Would it even be a proper transfer window if we weren't linked to Nakhi Wells at some point? Feels like we've been rumoured to be signing him for most of the last 10 years or more

Re: Changes In Football thread

Was playing golf yesterday with some of the inlaws family and friends, one of whom is a referee in the Cheshire league. He's a level 4 qualified ref, which makes him eligible for a few local cup finals. He was saying yesterday that if he was to push on to get the qualiifications to become a Premier ...

Re: The generic transfer thread

Barcelona nearing a deal to sign Athletic Bilbao's Nico Williams. The winger has agreed a six year deal. Made his debut for Athletic at 18 years old. Exciting player. one of my very favourite players, and one of the big driving forces behind Athletic Bilbao's recent good seasons. I thought Barca we...

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

Look forward, not backwards. Taking the emotion out of it, is he the sort of signing we'd be excited about? 3 - 4 years since he was at his best, 29 and not much scope to improve, couldn't get in a team that finished bottom. We know he has the sort of character we want, but I don't think there are ...

Re: Champions League, Europa League & Europa Vauxhall Conference League 25/26

I nearly suggested an "Azerbaijan team" but couldn't remember if they were in it or not.

Surely there should be some element of regionalisation in the qualifying rounds to prevent that kind of draw occurring

Re: Generic clubs in financial crisis Thread

In the last week or so we've had Sheff Wed not paying non-playing staff in full for May and Blackburn essentially binning their women's team, including apparently not giving them proper female kit and them having to use near fitting men's kit, including for the girls' teams. One of the Reading ladie...

I didn't realise it was 6 a side. All the clips I've seen from it are one on one with players hoofing it from one half of the pitch to the other trying to score - what's going on there?

Re: Record Watch 2024/25

Not sure Luton are going to be quite the same sort of force as Brum - they're not going to blow 15m+ on a striker, and they're supposedly putting some/most of the Prem money into the new stadium fund. Plus they don't have the same pulling power as Brum either.
