    There is no argument though is there? Teflon truly is a poor manager.

    They changed the rules last season on professional fouls. If a player makes a genuine attempt to get the ball but mistimes the tackle then it’s a penalty and yellow card. However rugby tackles like AOC did constitute a red card.

    Sounds like Oldham are trying to force Wheater (and Woods) out, without having to fully compensate them. This from their representatives on twitter:

    Divock Origi can't get in Liverpool team either. Doesn't mean they are naff.

    Bolton I believe, Phil Parkinson fancied him and there was a strong rumour he was coming, I believe he was looking at Mark Beevers at the time who it was believed he was wanting a return to his native Yorkshire.

    Hopeless at picking a striker though.

    Is there any point signing anybody else now?. I honestly cannot see this season finishing, indeed I will be surprised if the season has not been curtailed before Christmas.

    A number of Leyton Orient players have tested positive, this will have a knock on effect with their last opponents.

    I cannot get my head around how football is going ahead at the moment, the rest of the nation have to social distance at work, yet footballers don't. I think the Government will put a stop to this in the near future

    If they're getting tested then why can they play ?

    The club pay for the tests if they're negative they are OK to play.
    I work in a care home where we cant socially distance and we get tested weekly to ensure we are safe to provide care.

    I doubt we are going to sign much talent now. it’s probably been said by others but I get the feeling the season is written off already.
    why take the risk wasting money when the season probably won’t finish.
    Although there is the salary cap so there is no danger we will be in the red this year.... surely.
    I wouldn’t be surprised if our plan was to try scrap the salary cap idea so other clubs spend more while we save for next year lol
    Nothing like a conspiracy

    Defenders and central midfielders were his bag really. Better than currently where we can’t seem to pick anyone
