  1. What is FFP? Asking for Norwich and Wolverhampton friends.
  2. Unbelievable amounts of salt in North London, East Anglia and parts of Wolverhampton. Perhaps Nassef could open a mine and next year we can spend even more on players…
  3. Beating Arsenal to one of their prime targets would be quite a statement.
  4. Earned it with some stunning performances in the championship to be fair. Wouldn’t be where we are now without them, and for that reason I would like him to be backup to Emi and not bother with a different keeper.
  5. Did a good job for us in his time with us. Probably one of the more productive transfers from that first batch of players we signed in the championship. Certainly we had a better deal than Swansea did with Ayew.
  6. Yep. The idea that Arsenal will spend £35-40mil on Buendia is a bit unrealistic. That’ll be well over 50% of their budget. Financially they can’t compete with Villa (but you are right there are other factors). Feels good to say established teams can’t compete with us for a change.
  7. Worth bearing in mind a lot of clubs (Arsenal, Spurs etc) don’t like doing their business early. If a player is on £100k the difference between signing him in June and August could be in excess of £1.2mil in wages.
  8. Rumour is Neves is being sold by Wolves for £35m. I know he’s likely off to a Champions League club, but that is a bargain and would be worth every penny just to see their fans reaction.
  9. Am looking forward to the obligatory “Ross Barkley has returned to Chelsea. We thank him and wish him well for his future career in League one” social media post.
  10. Dougville does have a ring to it. Agree with the contempt for his tenure though, I have no doubt Doug would have benefitted personally from that land, and could never have seen him have the vision to do what Wes and Nassef are doing with this academy.
  11. Fans love a player that runs their heart out. It’s not difficult to love Ollie. 14 league goals is a great debut season return, especially with our most creative midfielder out for months.
  12. If anything to put that terrible “Mind the gap” rubbish to bed. I have no issue with Wolves, but their obsession with how we are doing is irritating
  13. Mine was predicting that Marlon Harewood could play for “900minutes” after coming on against Liverpool and not score….10 seconds before scoring a bicycle kick against them to help salvage a draw for us.
  14. Football Insider are the Athletic of football rumours. Charlton Athletic.
  15. Nassef and Wes mean business don’t they?
  16. We are all living in Bertrand Traore’s world. Sometimes it’s ridiculous, sometimes it’s genius, sometimes it’s incomprehensible. But it’s always entertaining.
  17. Fair play to the guy. He’s not Messi, but he’s done well for us over the years, and my word he’s got great goals in him
  18. Top 8 for me if we invest and keep all the players mentioned. Progress is the name of the game.
