The Fish

To be fair, setting aside the wrongful accusations, people from Liverpool are awful, awful people.

Me and Alex dropping knowledge.

I 100% believe that he thought that. But honestly, I think that a well financed, well staffed academy is a production line of saleable assets. Sure, few of them are going to go for tens of millions of pounds, but plenty will go for north of a hundred grand. If you can sell 2-3 young lads to Championship clubs for a total of around £1m you've surely covered the running costs of the club, plus lads who go for sub £100k to lower leagues and Scotland. You'll occasionally get some who'll go for millions and rarely one or two that'll either be good enough to make part of the team going forward, or sell for tens of millions to an elite club.

That and the dancing.

Do the beach up to Blyth. Do a bit of paddle boarding too. Get a Dog! Bikram Yoga!

To be fair, Casey's 'scoop' was before Perrone moved to Man city and he just said 'contact had been made'.

I saw that the owners had sold another wedge of shares, but only about £14m. What could that possibly be about?

Shocker

Don't flirt with me.

I said it was FUCKING MOOT!"

That joke, ironically, never gets old.

I honestly think it's more that who we are now, does not scan with who we were when his transfer made sense. Our high-pressing, more fluid style just doesn't work with Chris "Plank of" Wood. But the whys and wherefores are moot now. He's not now, and nor will he be a part of our future. Better to get shot now.

Just read that Man City have signed him for a measly £8m

Man Utd, they're after his replacement from Burnley.

I've no doubt that our unexpectedly good performance in the league, coupled with our piss-poor FA Cup performance will alter the boardroom plans. If Al-Rumayyan comes to town he'll probably loosen the purse strings again. I want ultra hipster signings. like Franca, Perrone etc.

You're a good man BW

And Benitez, to be fair. Lewis doesn't look like he's up to much at all, mores the pity.

Of the 11 that started against Shef Wed I'd probably sell in next two windows; Dubravka Murphy Lewis and I'd definitely sell this shower as soon as possible; Manquillo Lascelles Ritchie

What? and miss out on the Bridges and the Glass Museum? Philistines!

Just started watching Bad Sisters. It's good. Not sure Apple tv is worth it for this, and Ted Lasso, but we'll see. Anyone got any Apple tv recommendations besides those two?

If only there was a vainglorious billionaire who recently discove3red it's not as universally adored as he believed. If he threw a couple billion at the problem, that could go some way to offset costs to the people who need the most help, right?

"Alexa, outdoor light off" isn't the ordeal you think it is. My wife was hesitant and brought up similar challenges to modernisation, but now she's using the big Echo Show in the kitchen to give her step-by-steps for new recipes that it suggested the day before, while playing her favourite music. She's telling the postie to leave the parcel on the step while she's upstairs with our son. She's a total convert. Join us, don't resist.
