It'll never cease to amaze me how wound up a group of adults can get about an internet forum discussing a football club It's turned out fine in the end every year for the past ~10 years and it's a nice day outside!

I quite like reading his posts honestly. I don't quite get what the beef is. Football is a game and not life and death, but perhaps Bill Shankly's famous take is still very much alive....though I think he meant it tongue in cheek as one of his lesser known quotes goes like this. 'Pressure is working down the pit. Pressure is having no work at all. Pressure is trying to escape relegation on 50 shillings a week. Pressure is not the European Cup or the Championship or the Cup Final. That’s the reward.' Edited by Stirlingsays (08 Jul 2022 7.54am)

I have not perused all the other posts but I smell the whiff of brimstone with high-grade ordnance and animus aimed at fellow supporters. My message is quite simple "Calm down my dears".

Quite. Dazza is either in the know, has a very tentative source, or is cobbling stuff together from Newsnow feeds. Or a mixture of the above. I could not care a less. His posts provide nothing if not a digest of rumours so are, at the least, as good as many of the blogs out there. Thus, why twist your knickers over the quality of his info? Take it as what it is and please stop ruining his threads.

I think people are forgetting we already have a good squad, if Doucore signs, i would be happy making sure Olise, Eze, Guehi, Andersen and Mitchell have watertight contracts they are happy with, Plange maybe a good forward, Mateta is acceptable, hopefully Edouard will improve, the young CD from Petebough and O`Brien would be good purchases, moderately priced, and maybe a RB loan Quite right and the bonus of still having Benteke to lead the line.

Sums it up. A bloke gives his insight into transfers making it clear that it is just second hand information and he gets slated and insulted for his trouble. Relax people. I'm just glad that we actually have some money to spend.

Welcome back Mr 'W' look forward to your linguistic eloquence on all matters appertaining to our beloved club . . .
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

I am humbled and gratified by your kind sentiments, however what you deem "Linguistic eloquence" others would deem blizzards of words in search of a coherent sentence.

Welcome back young Willo. This is so kind of you and I thank you for your welcome. May the debate return to 'Transfer Updates' as this topic is far more riveting than WILLO !
