Requiem for a team It was the best of times. Then, in the blink of your blood-oranged eye, it was the worst. Again.

Alright. I wrote this about all this. #LTFC

Wasn't that put out by tftm in some form or another? Very sad, though. So young. RIP

You can say what you like about McManaman or Dixon or whoever, but I genuinely think Ferdinand is the worst co-commentator and pundit around

If I'm 2020, I'm seriously questioning why I would even bother, if fans are flaking off because of 1 dodgy spell on the back of 10 years of unprecedented progress. Luckily I'm not 2020 and they will work to sort it out, like they always do.

Not sure I agree re Pelly, but the point is the same. We have enough proven quality in the squad to be competing. We even have the same manager playing the same formation. So what's going wrong?

We finished 3rd in this league with a midfield 3 of Pelly, Clark & Nakamba. Maybe we should try that?

Czech Billionaire Daniel Křetínský is taking over Royal Mail for £3.5bn.

His first step is to halve mail deliveries which will save £300m by getting rid of staff.

Prices will go up, employee's down, services down.

And every penny in profit goes to his tax haven accounts.

Blows my mind that people pay those prices to stay 𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 of the festival!

The Championship Table but it’s the mean property price in each clubs stadium post code.

Of course it will be business as usual. I think Edwards, was frustrated and reflecting on a difficult start to the season ahead of the break. Clearly, people read more into it than was ever there.

And last time we got relegated from the championship, we ended up getting relegated 3 seasons in a row, so you ain't seen nothin' yet!

The club got around £90m last season, £30m parachute payment this year, and will get another £15m next year (unless we get promoted this season 😉). Gary Sweet explained after we got promoted that a good chunk of it went on improving the current ground and on building the new one.
