It's rude not to pass these things on, if only because if we do sign the player and he turns out to be our Best. Player. Ever, I'll be the thread starter of the zillion-post thread.
Us, Ipswich and Southampton linked with an 18-y-o Brazilian winger, who can play anywhere across the front, who...
Just a quick plug for Dogma fanzine, which currently has subscriptions available.
It's not only a great read, but it's clearly put together with a lot of care and craft - it always looks fantastic.
And, as a bonus there are always a few extras with each issue - stickers (many of which adorn...
Interesting and amusing article about bad shooting, particularly midfielders who, under no pressure, fancy themselves to ping it into the top corner from 30 yards out but, instead, put it in Row Z...
The guy who continues to dial his own number even when the phones are down, the player who...
I don't follow the youngsters as closley as some, but he seems to have been in decent form and it does look like he's out of contract in the summer.
Guru @AZ Gull will know more, obviously...

Sounds like he needs to come home!
"According to Sport Bild, a statistic in particular causes concern among those responsible for BVB: Groß reached a top speed of only 29.9 km/h this season, which makes him the slowest regular player in the Bundesliga. This number stands out in particular, as...
Wolves, Brentford and us are supposedly interested as he's a fringe-part player at Bayern Munich now.
The 30-year-old, who might harbour hopes of an England recall with Tuchel at the helm, has made just six appearances and played 141 minutes this season.
Kim Min-jae and Dayot Upamecano have...
Really good read. Interesting contrast between De Zerbi and Hürzeler's style and his role.
“It’s been . . . some journey. Some journey.
“There’s been times where, pfff, I don’t know, I’ve spoken to specialists, like maybe after injury or having to go to surgery and they’ve said things like...
I don't know enough about Dutch right-back options, but one Dutch football journalist has blasted their setup for not recalling him.

Will demand for away tickets increase at some point just in case, well - you know, there might be a few extra away games next season?
I know this will trigger a "now you've done it Bozza", and I'll be blamed as we slide down the table, get relegated, and the most exotic away game we have next...
Whenever anyone suggests we should have more points than our current tally, others will mention that we rode our luck a bit in other games and picked up more than we probably should.
So, with that in mind, how many points do you think we should have right now, if match results followed...
Apparently, we were interested in the Genoa midfielder in the summer, although I can't find a mention of him on here, and we may retain an interest.
"Milan intends to give an alternative to Fofana during the January market. The Rossoneri could therefore focus on Morten Frendrup, the...
...if you're not a Football Ramblie listener as a matter of course.
Skip forward to 16 minutes - you only need to listen for four minutes or so.
Just some really nice discussion from neutrals on the Albion.
Maybe one to keep an eye on, given we seem to retain interest in some players who we have previously been linked with and/or missed out on.
A Belgian site reports we tried to get him in the summer 2023 window, but he chose Genk over us.
KRC Genk took Bonsu Baah away from Sarpsborg in the...

...what with the utter clusterfuck playing out across the pond.
I stopped at a Tesco Express to buy a few groceries, and decided to lift the family gloom with some jam doughnuts.
"Soft and juicy" it said on the pack and I could not wait to get home and sink my teeth into one.
