Yeah, we've spent way too long pussy-footing around this 21 year old goalkeeper who joined the club a whole six weeks ago. 

Can't believe we've allowed his reign of terror to go unchecked for so long.

He doesn't like it, he knows where the door is. I'm glad we've got an owner that stands up for the club and doesn't tolerate being short changed. I don't care how young the keeper is, he's good enough to pick up 20K a week or whatever he's on,  but he's not doing his job, so much so we'd be better using a keeper that was part of last seasons mess in Mark Bunn instead.

Amavi is an accident waiting to happen. Cissokho in. Now.

He already is, which is the problem.

Why would someone make that up? It's not even funny. It's hard enough sifting through the bullshit as it is without stuff like that being put out there.

I'd say 'liking' a post that we need a new goalkeeper isn't going to do our current goalkeeper a world of good. If we haven't signed a new keeper by the next game, I think he's **** up.

Admittedly, that's not very helpful.

I don't find myself overly bothered though, we've spent far too long pussy footing around players that don't earn their money.

He is right aswell though. Gollini seems to talk a good game off the field, not short on confidence (based on stuff I've seen on social media) but the opposite on it, needs to start doing his job!

Sure he can. But just because he can doesn't mean it's a good idea. When making public statements, large organisations tend to consider the impact of that statement on various stakeholders. For us, the fans, the players, the manager, other teams, potential signings.

Xia doesn't seem to do that in his tweets. There's reason we have a PR team that draft and review every press statement, and there's a reason Xia deletes his tweets with alarming regularity.

If it was as you say - he's the owner, and he can do what he likes - why does he feel the need to delete his tweets so often? He knows he's **** up.

What exactly has he said that's a problem?

he wasnt on the pitch for any of the goals we conceded yesterday and im not even his biggest fan 

Amavi on other hand is only player in defence from Luton and Bristol City game

He's like dijimi traore. If he'd have conceded a penalty for the shirt pulling in the box against Derby, I'd have sold him. It was blatant and referees are diving in it at the moment.

I feel a lot better knowing Amavi is at left back.

I'd like to see him given a chance up top but we don't have enough quality to play behind him.

Accident waiting to happen. Amavi in. Now.

If we had more time, I'd sell him, questionable attitude, greedy and not half as good as he thinks he is. If our squad wasn't so thin on quality, I'd bench him.

They don't like it, they can follow him out the door. I think what he's doing is good, so much more transparency and communication with the fans, which is necessary after last season. It'll slow down when the transfer window closes, so keep your hair on.

Leave him be, he's done nothing but good since his arrival and it'll tail off when window shuts.

We should try get Tom Cairney, scores a lot in an ordinary Fulham side, played with McCormack too.

I don't want to get in to debating the merits of Bennett's performances for us, but he spent years here, he no doubt has mates in the squad, probably still talks to a few of them, and I imagine they're equally unimpressed with the owner publicly mouthing off about details that are usually confidential.

The Holloway tweets, today's 'liking' a tweet that we need a new keeper. We're 5 games in, I dread to think what this dude is going to be saying publicly after a few more losses. He needs the PR team to filter this shit, he shouldn't be posting things in the heat of the moment, and based on the frequency with which he deletes his posts, he realises this to some degree.

Of course, that bit of a bump will be happening to somebody else, won't it? And if by some fluke you should lose your job, you won't mind, it's worth it to Get Our Country Back, eh? 

Yes, it is. It makes me sad that so many in this country would gladly sell us up the river to Europe.

No more though Mr Mooney!

Just on immigration. It is possible to be concerned about free passage of people without being xenophobic. Why don't America, Australia, or any other non EU country open their doors to anyone and everyone? Are they xenophobic as well? 

Its about numbers not colour. 

Yeah, course! Aslong as you're not English.

That isn't an answer. That doesn't tell us at all what they plan to do about immigration. If we want to trade with the EU, we'll have to accept free movement, so what are Leaves actual plans to deal with immigration?

It will give us far greater control and allows us to decide who enters the country. We'll be able ensure those we do allow to come here, add value and will stop those that won't be able to support themselves and are just using the EU as a passage way into the country.

Leave also had no answer. 

 

I'm disappointed in the result but it's done now, time to move on and hope for the best. Hopefully the EU will collapse and save us from ourselves.

They did. Leave the EU. The system becomes fairer and we say who comes here and who doesn't, rather than being told.

And the foreigners. Don't forget them.

Can't say that, it's racist, despite immigration being the root of a number of the country's problems, problems which remain had no answer to.

Haha. Being called a lefty for not wanting to destroy the economic future of this country. Brilliant. Thanks 

You can put at that project fear crap to one side now, it's all finished. That isn't really going to happen, is it? There might me a bit of a bump, but its certainly not going to destroy our economy. It's people like you, flapping and blowing things out of proportion that makes things worse.

Well, after a day's shock and a few hours reflection, I've concluded that I'm done with the UK. I'm pulling a Sturgeon. As far as I'm concerned it was the English wot done this and if they want an intolerant, regressive society that scoffs at experts, then they can go ahead and have it. I'm done. I'm out. Stuff the Union, I hope it disintegrates sooner rather than later. Stuff the Tories and stuff Labour and stuff the rest of them. I don't care anymore. They no longer serve my interests. In the medium term I hope that sense prevails in NI and we strike some deal with the Republic, but chances are the unionists will be stubborn asshats and will rather see the country go down the drain than give Dublin a bigger say. In any case, I aim to move down south and be part of a wider community again. However flawed the EU may be, their values are my values. I can no longer confidently say that about the UK.

Cya!

Well, the left really are foaming at the mouth on here! Don't get your own way so you start hurling abuse at those on the other side of the arguement. Embarrassing.

Benteke again AWOL v a big club. It's not gone unnoticed

Don't worry, you won't have to put up with his 25 goals a season next year when Spurs sign him for treble what we paid.

Managed to buy Sleeping Dogs for £1 at my local Blockbuster yesterday. Sadly it's closing down but bargains are there to be had at this time.

 

Just started it. Would people recommend sticking with it for the long haul?

No. I picked it up cheap recently aswell, and thought it was shit, gets boring very quickly.

Did i hear someone say this guy can take set pieces?

If so, thank **** for that, no more Barry Bannan!

If we signed Mellberg I wouldn't die of happiness and therefore won't live to see us relegated

Love to have the Viking back.
