Thorup is a coach and a manager
Branston Pickle replied to MC_NCFC's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
And I do believe Kenny played - and played well. -
I like the look of Slimane!

I think it’s more of an ‘obligation’ than an ‘option’ - so long as certain criteria are met. He was ideal for today’s situation. -
The main point is it is one player, and the reasons he wants to leave could be many and varied. They don’t necessarily reflect on the club. BYG clearly rates Kamara, that’s fine. I don’t think he’s currently ready and the fee we’ve got is very decent. Who knows what will happen in the future, I certainly don’t pretend to.

There’s loads of personal reasons why someone might want to leave, it doesn’t look badly on the club in any way. We have an excellent reputation and that remains intact - one person leaving doesn’t suddenly make everything ‘wrong’ All your points are easily argued against, but are your opinion, which is fair enough. Ultimately we don’t know how he’ll go - yes he might be worth tonnes more in x years, but it’s also true he might not be. He’s looked out of his depth in the Championship whenever used so far, but will hopefully come good.

Do they ever listen and act?

I’m sure Essex will be along soon to compare and contrast with what WBA do with this problem…. -

Jeez, what a non story. It amounts to “we sometimes get birds in the stands”. Tomorrow there will be a follow-up article with people complaining they get birds in their gardens, wanting the council to do something about it…. -
And Onel, I think? Point is, if you scattergun enough crap about during the transfer window, including the most obvious things that everyone expects alongside some utter garbage, you can pretty much claim anything you want in terms of “accuracy”.

Just seen this re: Sterling on Beeb - astonishing and slightly ridiculous: Arsenal have been offered winger Raheem Sterling but he can't leave until issues around a pay-out for losing some of his projected earnings while on over £300,000-a-week will be key. If all bonuses are met, his side believe they are owed a staggering £70m, which would have to be made up, or a loss negotiated between him, the buying club and Chelsea. Clearly the negotiations would change things a lot, but what an utter mess, football is a mad industry and Chelsea are then on the mad end of that scale!

Lee Carsley's first England squad
Branston Pickle replied to cambridgeshire canary's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I thought Madders had started the season well. That’s a pretty strong squad and there’s a few unavailable/not selected.
