Wow, just shows how far from ‘Football Manager’ things really are …

… real human beings with kids, mums and dads!

 

Will any of the new players be playing this afternoon

 

Diarra is the only one who is able to play. Don't think he'll start though

 

After Aaron Ramsdale according to the rags £25 million
He’s bloody awful certainly at the price

 

Bloody hell, I'd not be happy spending that much on Aaron Ramsdale, but his brother!?

Is this Milton Nunez all over again...

 

Smacks of an Ellis Short type signing
Got the wrang Ramsdale

 

It might be like us definitely getting Henderson, luckily that was a load of bollocks.

 

Okay......how about this!....

Before you read this, don't shoot the messenger please.

I am not an 'In the know' gob ****e.

But for those of you who may remember way back when Mogga was in charge, I posted that an elderly lady who works at the club's catering dept, shared some information with me, just because she could, I suppose. She overheard, at a refreshment break with the top bosses (as she put it) She told me that the BBC were coming to interiew Mogga.....Three weeks later, we were on Football Focus, right?

She is a propper gossip with a massive heart by the way. She has just told me what she has just heard....

"A chap with a non thick beard said".......I'm confident that we will secure those three contracts....and the other two are likely to be secured in January"...

I have no idea guys....

However, she also said that she dropped a few sadwiches on the floor....to a group appluuse ffs!

 

My type of rumour this. Best of the summer. And more chance of actually having some truth to it than 99% of the journo rumours for me.

 

Aye mate...she is a gossip, but she doesn't even know what stuff means....but she makes me laugh....top top lass.

 

I have done my best Poirot and deduced the following.

5 players heading into last year of contract that I suspect the club will want to keep around. Neil, Cirkin, ONien, Roberts, Huggins. I think they mean Neil, Cirkin, ONien this summer and Roberts and Huggins in Jan. Huggins fitness pending.

Miss Marple say different. Neil, Mayenda, Rigg in summer. Onien and Huggins in Jan.

 

My source told me they were tuna and cucumber on oatmeal bread
