You've already hit old age before our very eyes.

Return of the Nut. Welcome back, hope you've been well this past however long it's been.

Some workplace snowflakes itt. "Oh my. The CEO said that whilst he was happy with this year's profits, we need to do better next year. I have NEVER been so offended in all my life."

Second most balanced after mine.

Ah that's why, you're driving at those OAP speeds. Not like this young gun.

I've got a mild Hybrid Focus but I only get 45 mpg. 50 odd was the best I could do on motorways. Is your caravan at the bottom of a very deep valley?

UNSUBSCRIBE Reason for unsubscribing: I don't even recall subscribing to hear the thoughts of this fucking MEGAWHOPPER. Apart from the first sentence, which is excellent, the rest of this is UNREADABLE SHITE. Now please remove me from your mailing list at once.

No need to be confused and no need to re-read anything. You're correct and the Vicki Pollard ehrmagerd crew are talking PURE SHITE.

So PSR is fixed for good and we can just go on splashing the cash and not having to worry about player sales then? No, it's not is it. So that strategy isn't fit for purpose, correct? Which is what Mitchell was telling us all. Now all of you divs that don't understand this PLEASE FUCK OFF BECAUSE I'M NOT EXPLAINING IT AGAIN. Continue thinking that the new DoF was slagging off our current playing squad if you so please. I am DONE trying to guide you through this difficult phase in your lives.

Buying established players for big money and in so doing building a big PSR problem, and having no players to recoup the PSR hole we've dug for ourselves. I've posted umpteen times about this today. No offence but I'm not getting into it all again, but it shouldn't take me explaining the strategy to understand that he isn't slagging off the signings that we've made. He just isn't. That would he absolutely fucking ludicrous for a new DoF to come in and say you've signed a load of fucking shite her lads, haven't you? It would be a resignation letter. Btw we had people on here absolutely insisting that someone at the club must have fucked up for us to have got ourselves into that June 30 position. Some of the same people are clutching their pearls when the new DoF turns up and goes "well we can't keep doing that, can we?"

Howe retaliate by making a V around his mouth and wagging his tongue up and down - the universal signal for fanny licking. But it devolved into farce cos Mitchell thinks he means him and is mouthing back "I DON'T HAVE A FANNY" and Howe is mouthing "NOT YOU! YOUR WIFE! IT'S YOUR WIFE'S FANNY I'M GONNA.." and then he does the fanny licking sign again. They just need to get in a room and sort it out.

Incidentally I've just watched match cam and you can plainly see Mitchell point across at Howe and then slowly draw his finger across his throat.

He said the STRATEGY wasn't fit for purpose ffs. He's not talking about individual signings. A week from now you lot will have Chinese whispered yourselves into thinking he called Isak a cunt.

Even when there's no pun, we get presented with your workings. Unbelievable.

Focus Vignale here. S-Line though cos I'm young and sexy.

Wonder which one got "absolutely raped" that night.

"Exactly the attitude I'd expect from a CONVICTED RAPIST" would be my go to response here. Let us know how it goes.

Except he didn't criticise previous signings.

Well said.

I'm not making excuses for anyone. I've said it was poorly worded and it's clearly caused a rift and needs to be solved. That Howe took offence is not in question. That the two men should have spoken to one another since is not in question. But also not in question is that spending top dollar and not recouping anything is not sustainable / fit for purpose in the context in which our club has been operating. That is not criticising individual signings or the people that made them, it is a simple statement of fact. Taking offence at that, and not taking the time to have any sort of clarifying conversation with the person that made the comments is stupid. As is not taking the time to contact the person that you've clearly caused offence to. I think Howe's behaviour here has been as bad, if not worse, than Mitchell's tbh. This can be resolved quite easily.

What might be in the future isn't the context in which we're currently operating though, so you can't talk about what might be in the future. Also, there wasn't any criticism of specific transfers - Howe has created that perception in the way he's responded. He was talking about the policy not being sustainable, he didn't suggest that any of the signings were poor or anything like that. And your point about us not being able to recoup on players is exactly what Mitchell says too. We aren't selling people but we're buying at big prices, and you can't do that. I'm not denying that it's created tension and the egos of the two involved have meant that rather than it be resolved by having a sit down it's been allowed to fester. Bad form on both of their parts tbh. I repeat though, nobody is questioning the quality of the signings we've made. You're making the same mistake Howe has made if you think that's what Mitchell has done.
