Netflix and Amazon would pay handsomely to make a fly on the wall documentary charting our fall and rise next season I’ve no doubt

It's a bit late for that - For that to work they would have to be filming the last couple of months of us in the PL and the visible impact behind the scenes of players, fans and the like at our gradual demise.

Otherwise it's just behind the scenes footage of us in the Championship for a season which is hardly stellar viewing. Not to mention you could just see us messing up getting promoted with the cameras filming our anticipated 'rise' :D .....

Against Sheffield Wednesday - that's a Lge Two team already on holiday, so don't be misled by that game.

I've watched Oxford 4/5 times - WL works his nuts off, and makes some good movement, but also seems to get isolated and his lack of pace doesn't help.
Speaks well in interviews too.
He really does remind me of a young Kane. If he can improve his weaknesses or find a way to move to mitigate them (like Kane did), he could become very good. If not, it'll be lower Championship, then Lge 1.

It'd love to see what he can do in a more creative side. Oxford had to toil, with the occasional flash of skill and through balls

Those finishes are any level finishes though. The real difference at PL or higher championship level would be first touch and hold up play, speed of thought making up for lack of speed on pitch and the confidence to do that second type of finish routinely. One of the things that made Kane so deadly was his pure willingness to take on that long range shot and consistently put them on target. You don't need pace if you can consistently bother a keeper from that pocket outside the area.

They are excellent finishes. What I like him is the smoothness in his finishing technique and vision.
The most impactful change Kane made was his balance - his striking of the ball is machine like.
I'm excited by Lankshear - there is a lot of ability there. Fingers crossed.

And not forgetting all the pubs and takeaways around the stadium who’ll have thousands fewer customers next season 💸

Plus I’ve noticed there’s not quite so many Asian fans spending a small fortune on merchandise at the Club Store after matches, now that we’re nearly a full year post-Sonny and without Kane either there’s no superstars that younger visitors to nWHL are going to be demanding on their shirts.

ENIC’s incompetence is going to cost not only our club but the entire community £millions in lost revenue, a total and utter unmitigated ominshambles.

Indeed - Premier League form table below, not sure why people are anticipating/expecting West Ham to get next to nothing from their next 3 games considering two of those clubs are even below us in the form table. Brentford have won once in their last 9 PL games, vs Burnley:

TBF though, form isn't infinite and people need hope if we are going to stay up, can't blame people for that
