  1. The material looks a lovely nylon will it give us an electric shock when we take it off? Is that logo also smoking a pipe? Grim stuff!
  2. & we have no money for dog food and are open to offers for the piece of string...
  3. Yes but he has chosen to sit on a bench in West Bromwich for another season and we don't even have the cash for Bruce to have offered him one for a fortnight.
  4. Sandwich boards with "For Sale" written on them?
  5. Why would be want to leave? Who would want him and who would pay him anywhere near the wages he is getting from us? We can't afford to buy his contract out so I expect he will see it out Gabby style.
  6. Jack was in the gallery and James was mentioned as among those there. Fingers crossed then.
  7. That wasn't the case with Captain Snake but I hope James or Jack get the captaincy if staying with the club would come along with it.
  8. Could it be that other clubs know that we are desperate for cash now so are waiting for a few weeks when we will be even more desperate and therefore forced to accept their derisory bids? My preference is for one or more of the reasons that you have suggested in your last paragraph to be the reason.
  9. He would have signed for us if we had the means to have made a bid for him which makes him different to other ex players who wanted to leave us. We really have sunk so low haven't we?
  10. I still had us finishing well clear of them by the way.
  11. Well we will find out at the end of the season how close my predictor is Tom. Doing the predictor is usually a bit of fun. Predictions can be right and they can be wrong. The topic is an optimism gauge after all it just seems I don't quite share your optimism.
  12. The Birmingham Mai! was once a newspaper that reported football news. It now lives to annoy us with stories like this. Small Heath would love to sign him in an attempt to make them look the bigger club but a lack of money and FFP is likely to stop that happening along with the preference of the player to go almost anywhere else.
  13. It's a predictor so I predicted the results and took a guess on the squads we and others are likely to have. If the actual results and the squad we have to choose from proves my prediction to be horribly pessimistic then I will be over the moon. It may have been a pointless exercise but I'm a bit fan of those.
  14. I wonder how many empty chairs there will be for new signings and if we will take this opportunity to introduce our new mega rich owner?
  15. He is sure to breathe new life into the club then. He was clearly ahead of his time manufacturing touch screens back then as well. High noon has been and gone when can we expect an announcement via Derek Acorah?
  16. Very few owners are in it for anything else. It would be nice if we could find one this time after having thought we had with our last two.
  17. Just done the Championship Predictor had us 18th with 49 points.
  18. No news is good news. Reporting for training soon. Can't wait for this particular transfer window to slam shut and for Levy to be left disappointed and shocked that a cash strapped club like us have seen fit to not take any sort of offer from him no matter how low and insulting it may have been.
  19. The Birmingham Mail have suggested that we will be wearing it on 14th July at our Telford & Kiddy pre-season games with it being revealed ahead of those games with an official kit launch expected later. My guess is that we only have made one shirt and cannot afford to produce any others yet.
  20. So there's no transfer embargo yet? Let's go sign some of those World Cup players then (I assume Bruce has identified his targets already) so get it done!
  21. Johnstone on his way to Albion it seems. Pity he can't do better than that.
  22. So I gather Donald Trump is going to buy us on Super Tuesday??
  23. I think he wants to do so well in a Villa shirt that it may have had a negative impact upon him along with the injuries that have plagued him and our high early expectations of him. I'm hoping that he will come good this season after all he's unlikely to be too pressured for a first team place as we might not have many players left to do that by the start of the season. That might help him at least.
