Eeyah man! Yi gan to the match with them!

You should try CT's. That won't.

Wasn't part of his ridiculous rant him mentioning how long he had played and managed here? And yet suddenly he's Manuel off Fawlty Towers. "I speek Eengleesh very well. I learn it from a booook."

We could buy that Branthwaite lad off them for £20m on Jan 1 if they like.

Aye I mean it probably ends the bid because they're more likely to be acquiring a Championship club. I think the prospective owners will find the funds. I think the only way it happens is if this 777 lot decide to walk away. If they remain interested, then surely they'll put the additional in.

I'd be amazed if this ends up in a deduction. There must be a way of getting the extra money into the club and avoiding administration. It'll be fucking hilarious though.

It's short - probs about 6 or 7 hours so hopefully you can get it for a price that reflects that. I really enjoyed it though.

Has anyone played Hellblade 2: Senua's Sacrifice? It's on Game Pass and it's good.

3 wins and a wildcard v Liverpool.

Getting a new cat in January as it happens.

Nope. No it isn't.

How many mid table Championship sides have we played in those away fixtures? RANCID PATTER.

Ram it up your shit pipes dickheads. The time of the amateur threadstarter is over. No more Mr Bass, no more McGroin. It's time for the adults to take control of the situation.

Well what's more delusional, thinking we can win the league cup and progress in the CL, and beat the mackem in the cup, and get back into Europe next season? Something had to give.

Again though, look at the context. You're acting like no silverware this year is just the worst nightmare. We're 2 years into this man, no silverware this year is entirely standard and completely within expectations. I genuinely think you're guilty of having unrealistic expectations at this stage, and you're allowing yourself to be devastated when they're not met. I still think we've got a great chance of winning the Carabao. FA Cup it's too early to say cos so much depends on the draw, but we've got as good a chance as anyone outside of Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal - again, the context for that is that we were a knocking bet for relegation 2 years ago today.

Milan had 2 shots on target last night btw.

Context reminder for last night. This was the PL table exactly 2 years ago today. Champions League was a ridiculous pipe dream, relegation was a probability, not a possibility. We've come much farther, much faster than anyone could have dreamt through incredible coaching, having a brilliant set of lads at the club to start with, and making some really smart signings. The future is unbelievably rosy. You can't even really call last night a setback cos we had very little right to even be there at this stage in the process anyway. If we were naive at times last night and in the other CL games, well aye of course we fucking were. We're bairns in the competition. We had a literal bairn in midfield. Now that we're out and can just focus on the league, I think we'll be back in it again next season. I know it's boring and everyone knows it already but the context is really important.

And we'll much the better for it come the end of the season, Llewellyn-Bowen.

We weren't gonna win the champions league, you know.

Anyone who thinks I didn't eat the fuck out of that éclair simply does not know me.

Aye. We'll get north of £100m and we'll get better off the back of it. Players will come and go, but we're massively on the right trajectory.

They're absolute mince. I'd even take the handicap of you starting the match thread for that one.

Well, I've got a confession to make. I ate it pre match. So we can't even really say with any certainty that the éclair wouldn't have work. The truth is that I threw away the last 16 of the CL out of sheer gluttony. I simply did not care, I needed that sweet, sweet pastry.

Europa League's shite lads. Domestic cups and the league are where it's at now. Finishing 4th tonight has probably upped our chance of finishing 4th/5th in the league by 10%+.
