    Bolton fans dont give him a positive write up. Sounds like his first season was decent but performances dropped and he's been a bench player the last 2 seasons

    Hopefully it's nothing and he's started following lots of other heads of footballing operations at other clubs too in the hope one of them takes notice of him.....

    Really hope we have moved on from signings like this. Far better CMs out there and available for free. We need 2 with some quality to fight with Metcalfe. Use Lapslie as the 4th.

    We're not making assumptions. We're reading his words!

    Assumptions is when you guess. Here, he's told us!

    And those saying otherwise don’t travel on it or very rarely . It was an utter nightmare every day especially 0640-0930 & 1400- 20.00, 27 years ago between the M606 and Milnrow . Saturdays all day from the A1 to the M606 at Chain Bar , wall to wall brake lights across three lanes mostly .

    Im sure he would - on double the wages!

    Cardiff fans reckon he was on between £12-£15k a week!

    He doesn’t need an excuse and he hasn’t offered one he has signed for a club he has had a long history with. And a manager he has an affinity with. He lives locally so it’s convenient and probably getting a wage increase. It’s perfect for him. From our point of view it’s very disappointing I hope we have screwed them down on a fee.

    Anyways, a Max Power yellow card when we play them is going to be the safest bet known to mankind. Unless he's already suspended for that game

    I wouldn't mind Dempsey and backup but I feel we can do better in the market

    Sounds like you’re living in the past. I travel on the M62 very frequently and I’ll agree pre Covid it was a disaster every day. Since then there seems to be less traffic needing to travel and there are less accidents.
    During peak times it’s still hard work but after 9am and before 3pm it’s largely ok

    Someone on Twitter claiming Power and Humphrys are on £8k a week each.

    I dont buy it.

    Wont be far off if you include all the incentives footballers get on top of their base salary.

    At the POYA sat with Sarcevic who was giving Humphs some stick. He nodded when we asked if humphrys was on the highest. Obviously never mentioned any figures, but someone else who I think has a decent idea reckoned £6k was our top earner

    Just taken me about an hour and half to get back from Manchester airport after dropping my lad off. Not particularly busy just the constant roadworks.
