But what a content creator. The best.

Looks like a young Frank Skinner with old Frank Skinner's hairline.

This bloke seems like a proper cunt. We should at least have a sniff around their exiles and see if there's anyone we could take off their hands on loan. Especially given their manager is making it very clear he wants them gone, there might be some deals to be had.

The most mental bit was that it guaranteed them a home leg. It wasn't even just you can't play one another, it was you get to pick from a specific pool, AND we guarantee to pick you out first. As HMHM says, the answer is to give them the option to withdraw from the competition, it's not to rig them a favourable draw to make their lives easier. It's fucking appalling.

Attitude adjuster for the Guehi naysayers.

40hrs 36m of the window left. Paul Mitchell:

Re our control of games, I'm hoping it's just our stupid trip to Japan and key players returning late from the Euros that's disrupted the pre season preparations. We look either over or undercooked, and you'd assume it's under. I think/hope we'll build back up over the coming weeks as Howe gets more and more time with them, and without the disruption of midweek games all the tm. E.

Apparently Howe described Willock's injury as "a big blow" in the post match press conference. Whether that is in the context of the match or the season remains to be seen, but it's not just a knock by the sound of it.

I missed a trick with Sheila take a bow in the other thread too. Maybe I'll get to use it this weekend.

Well he looks mint. Congrats on the new dog and I hope things are looking up for you and yours.

Not a dead leg.

Sheila, I've spent the night telling people that it was your thread to start if we went through. You owe me a GODDAMN apology.

The last Eirebender.

AFC Wimbledon. You fucking beauty.

This draw is ridiculous. Crammy's only got one ball left.

Avoided Arsenal.

Avoided Man City.

Avoided Liverpool.

Exactly.

I'd be surprised cos it wasn't that leg that got hit. You pair of total dickheads.

These arseholes. The draw is always "coming up next".

Wouldn't shut up about Forest's "pwesha", the twat.

Aye, on balance I thought we deserved to win. There were long periods where we looked clueless, but we totally took control in that last 20.
