You’re thinking of Stuart Webber.

Can’t see it mentioned so apologies if it has but Goode has started last 2 friendliest for Brentford both against Premier League opposition. Surely a loan move here is out of reach. Unless all of these ‘Good’ references refer to Curtis Good who is probably the best defender in the A-League.

I think people are overplaying the extremes of supporter emotions at the minute. There are certainly a couple ‘any negativity is toxic, no complaining until the window is closed’ types, ditto the ‘toys out the pram, tagging Speakman and Jones in every foul mouthed tweet, KLD is skint ‘. it’s...

Diedhoiu was after 30k a week for his new deal apparently, remembering hearing it on Not the Top 20 pod so I would be absolutely staggered if he dropped into League One.

Which was clear as mud. I’ve seen a few posters across both forums (including Magnus here) say that Rodwell was the source of Roker Report’s takeover exclusive, another piece of information where the time scale has been and gone. I hope that RR would know better than to trust the club hierarchy...

He bungled the season ticket fiasco on 3 seperate occasions. Went public in his support for Project Big Picture. Decent sized gaffes in their own right, but when your employers have ripped 20 mill from the club a little self awareness on the scenario and fan sentiment wouldn’t go astray.

Rightly or wrongly until Charlie & SD are gone completely, every quote is going to be pulled apart, every decision scrutinised to the nth degree. Referring to them as ‘Silent investors’ won’t cut it at the moment. The only respite they’ll receive is if results improve on the pitch and...

Lee Johnson is the first candidate that’s popped up that I’ve immediately thought “no way” to straight away, which is absurd when you consider how close Bristol City got to the championship playoffs regular. He’s called Streaky Lee for a reason, Bristol would go on horrific runs where they...

Haha of course mate, but I think the last 12-18 months is what is stoking up all of the emotions of who should be involved going forward.

Tale of 2 forums eh? If you’re positive on RTG you get slated. If you’re negative here, you get slated. There isn’t much in between! Given a lot of people probably began posting here due to the constant negativity and trolling on RTG it’s probably not surprising this forum is on the...

I hope like hell Methven isn’t the source for people’s information like it’s being said. Seen WMS members tweet it and Hawyatt Earp (who appears well connect) post it on RTG.

Wise Men Say’s recent pod was a very interesting listen and outlines why they’ve been fairly skeptical about this takeover. They were scathing of Methven’s behaviour over the last 12-18 months and provided some really informative views of why they’re hesitant to be fully on board the takeover...

Interesting article on The Athletic today about takeovers. Thought this bit was somewhat relevant and interesting to our situation: Wyness insists COVID-19 has not derailed American bidders. He says: “Pre-COVID, I was talking to serious Wall Street blue chip people who had a genuine interest...

All valid points. His handling of the academy however is the biggest crime for mine. A generation of players when we needed them most sold off.
