    A Moral Dilemma For you

    Likewise, I have been offered 'blood money' as I would call it and turned it down. I would again take it as read that no-one is planning to bribe the ref today, but appreciate that even though offered in jest (and some sort of deep sadness TBH) this thread has not been your cup of tea. Onwards...

    I agree. The narrative is absurd. And to see Alderweireld getting involved is distasteful to me. He says he loves the club, well STFU and be quiet about us until the summer eh?

    Errr, Toby needs to recognize that managers help careers. He was INCREDIBLY lucky to play under Pochettino. He was also INCREDIBLY lucky that Levy would not endorse Poch's request to sell him/upgrade when Toby stalled on signing a new contract and came back from a long injury overweight (by...

    I mean...I was told about this earlier and honestly thought it was a lie.

    A Moral Dilemma For you

    Just a bit of fun mate. I don't actually think anyone here would actually bung anyone off. Truthfully, despite my hubris, I am sort of resigned. If we fail to win against Brighton, I think the goose is cooked. As for bribing, I couldn't carry the guilt so wouldn't probably bother doing the crime.

    ...and here it is, Nine Inch Noize album...Reznor's in possibly his greatest 'run' since the early '90s...this is a great album and reflects what was going on during the tour, but obviously is essentially the Coachella set. Here's hoping this specific group does a series of shows...

    Politics, politics, politics (so long and thanks for all the fish)

    You should mate, and should've been since 2015. We are where we are because Farage opened the door for Bannon to shove Trump across the line...and since then, his every action has impacted the world.

    A Moral Dilemma For you

    Thanks to a late-night meeting with a gentleman called 'Nick' in a sleazy Soho bar (he insisted you call him 'Old' Nick for some reason), an opportunity has been presented to you. You have the opportunity to pass a large, brown paper bag full of cold, hard cash (untraceable notes) to referee...

    It was the right call for the manager Frank is, however having failed to get him, why did we not profile similar types of player? Why did we then go back to the type of player he really didn't seem to want? It was awful planning/decision-making/recruitment, and is an area where I have some...

    Johan Lange - Sporting Director

    I think either believe the confidence was drained by the tactics, or the confidence was drained by the results. I suppose it isn't binary, but as to which initiated which, I firmly believe the tactical approach drained the confidence which also has cost us results. With 6 games to go, you're...

    FWIW I am not a huge fan of Biss, however it is fact that he is a more adventurous midfielder and takes risks in those areas. Which means he was never someone Frank was going to use, as he proved to us that he did not like taking risks in the central areas.

    Johan Lange - Sporting Director

    You're right, he was INITIALLY excluded because of time-keeping. Was he then completely frozen out because of time-keeping? How long does punishment for an infraction last? Lets face it, he didn't fancy (or trust) his style of playing. Of course, given the speed with which our board managed to...

    Johan Lange - Sporting Director

    I heard early in the summer that he had turned down both Eze and Xavi as he wanted MGW. I believe he was 'talked around' to Eze and Xavi. He did the hard work in signing Palhinha, agreed. Where I believe he failed was in trusting him to do his job and using him to allow others to do theirs with...

    Johan Lange - Sporting Director

    I think Frank's lack of courage cost us, particularly in those areas when he opted not to have a passing midfielder. Bergvall is a high-risk player, however I maintain he was worth the gamble as a deep-lying roving carrier/distributor. I actually thought that was the whole point of Pahlinha...
