That's exactly how I would go and I'd look to give Matthews/Finch 15mins, possibly Law McCabe 10mins and Lennon a couple of mins too. This is a dead rubber for both sides, so time t try a few kids out and see if they sink or swim.

It doesn't sound daft, success should always be relative

I guess we have to ask WHY hasn't an englishman been given those resources?

Is that the in the same way that Akpom will never be a goalscorer? The lad has started 29 league games in his career, still very much a raw work in progress.

I feel it's a British psyche thing. We lord over managers and coaches by their playing reputation and on field fire in their belly, not by intellect. The intellectuals are looked down on by the masses, who wait for them to fail and want to kick them, the pressure is immediately on them...

and that's probably the right approach, we have to play moneyball, to get our FFP room to invest. We've done that to a large extent over the last few years. But it's a continual process. We don't want unhappy players, and we don't want to be seen as that club that holds players back from life...

I wouldn't assume that at all. In fact I'd only assume Ayling is one of those as he has had a massive impact and was a massive loss against Leeds too. I'm not convinced we will sign the other two. Not that they are bad players, but O'Brien might be difficult to make the numbers work and get real...

That is obviously a big question, although I would expect a politician answer of we don’t expect to Sell any of….rather than a firm, we will not sell

Parts of the country were a bit soft in the head for Boris, which is why get lumbered with a shyster like Houchen…..maybe that’s what he meant?!

3-4million rupees maybe

Not sure who covs best players are, they’ve for a good top ten squad but since shedding Hamer and Gyokeres I don’t think they have any 10m players

I think the worst is Swindon they conceeded 100 in a 22 team season, so 4 more games. I'd say that Sheff Utd are effectively slightly worse than swindons defence already and the attack is rivalling it and they could get that worst GD at a push.

I think cov have done as I expected, their recruitment has been ok, but not as good as ours. I think path, rav, and rogers will all do better than Hadji Wright, Simms and the right back they signed long term. I’d agree they were ahead in development terms. Not so sure now though. The likely...

The problem with British rail was that much of the rolling stock was antiquated. We didn’t have the availability , capacity, maintainability of the stock much of which was pre-70s technology. Today's stock have a lot more technology to monitor the trains and allow preventative maintenance rather...

We certainly have been hot and cold. Not many teams can go 7 without a win (chapter 1), followed by 6 wins on the bounce (chapter 2)? We followed that with 2 wins in 8 (chapter 3), then won 4 out of our next 5 (chapter 4). then we had 1 win in 7 (chapter 5), then 9 unbeaten (chapter 6). It's...

Is it any different to the league cup impacting ours? I’d be worried that they invested like 25m from the sales of their two best players and have gone backwards without any injury issues. I’m comfortable that our league position has largely been less than last year through injuries and late...

the rail infrastructure is owned by network rail isn’t it, which is government owned. So we wouldn’t need to buy that back just ensure that the rules around how that organisation operates are stronger. The big problem is the largely foreign owned companies that own the franchises that operate...

Let’s see what their policy is on water, I’m not sure how the water privatisation is structured and if it would be more complex to renationalise

So would I and I’ve 99.99% certain we will not sell McGree, Forss, Rav, Hackney and Lath this summer.

Sniffs bait, swims away
