Is that Ant Middleton, the immigrant to Dubai? 🤔

Leaving with immediate effect doesn't mean the decision has just been taken, however the great unwashed up the road want to portray it.

This absolutely feels like the backroom equivalent of Dan Neil

I thought it was inevitable once Ghisolfi arrived.

I'm impressed how the club managed the transition so well, and that he is leaving has taken so many by surprise.

Proper, well managed succession planning

With the arrival of Ghisolfi, Speakman's exit was always on the cards

KS rightly takes huge credit for rebuilding the playing side of the club, but, a bit like the side that got us here, we needed new people for the next stage

FG has knowledge of, and contacts in Europe that KS just doesn't

Because once they've removed all the immigrants they'll need to turn British girls into baby machines in order to fund pensions etc

You played them at the right time...

Coping with 24 inches is impressive, mind...

So now the dust has settled on January, the biggest question I'm left with is "What's going to happen with Geertruida"?

I understand why he didn't start last night, but is he actually really unhappy here, or was it just a case of a manager he knew made an enquiry and the media blew it up?

With that result we've made up 45 points on Burnley in less than a season...

The air shot didn't help...

I believe that's the first time this season we've scored in the opening 15 mins...

Just to be a pedant, I'd say that Ellborg is a first teamer. In the event of an injury to Roefs he's got the gloves. He's just not one of the starting XI

So then, just a player that Le Bris didn't rate then?

Only if you wanted to make absolutely sure there was no way back for him.

Was he playing for the U21s *because* he was actively seeking a move away?

Or maybe it was...

Maybe last weekend's result wasn't as bad as it was made out to be...

Done mate

Added you to the #SAFC starter pack. Let me know if others who need adding, and feel free to share...

On a side note, that 'about' is awfully precise...

Yeah. Appears I was talking out of my arse...

Can't wait for Shearer to decide he can talk about us tonight after last week, and refusing to when we beat West Ham 3-0 on opening day...

🤞🏻

Reports say he's joining West Ham...

I'd say 4-4-2 changing to 4-3-3 going forward, and falling back to 5-4-1 out of possession.

I think Hume is a smart choice, as gives greater depth against Somerville and lets Mukiele roam

Fuck me, #SAFC Twitter having a meltdown over the line up today...

Might be time to repost this...

5 times...

She's already there

Enzo Le Feé takes worst Panenka pen you'll ever see...
