Season tickets for next year must be out for sale soon... 🤔

[ellroy]

Funny you should say that....

[DoctorX]

Reasonable draw for us, assuming we can beat Oxford....

[ellroy]

Given performances, rather than results, and how the baggies are going not the easiest, but by no means the worst of draws.

As an aside, report that DD and proof of funds have been sorted. Couldn’t be really happening could it?

[fathomfive]

So you've got your Direct Debit sorted and you've got the cash, what car are you buying?

Time will tell, but I’m not holding my breath.

Doesn't this normally happen at season ticket renewal time for you boys?

I think some of the long term renewals are up soon so they'll be trying to get them to sign back up again.

If its true, then it seems like someone on the club side of the negotiations has leaked this. Nowt coming out of the Kingdom. Not sure what Ashley stands to gain by making mention of this a couple of days before the close of the transfer window, and when he's already given away all of the empty seats. I'm just sick of hearing about these takeovers.

[ellroy]

Bloody hell we appear to have signed, loan, a player for a position we actually needed sorting out.

Wonders will never cease.

I'd be happier if it was someone who could score.

[ellroy]

What on earth do we want with goal scorers? Anyone would think we needed to score goals to climb rather table or provide entertainment......

Utterly ste, by the way.

[fathomfive]

Yeah, scoring goals is so yesterday.

[TameRacingDriver]

I must admit to being past caring now. I do check the scores, and inevitably always feel grateful that I didn’t have to endure it anymore.

As long as Ashley remains at the club then it will never show any ambition or competence. When your best ‘hope’ for a takeover are a bunch of Saudi terrorists then the future doesn’t exactly look bright.

[ellroy]

Just watched the Celtic game.

Odsonne Edouard scored two, set up at least one of the others and looked at times unplayable. I know it’s was only Hamilton, but he only cost £9m. He’s got 29 this season and 13 assists.

Yet we cannot find a goal scorer who could possibly improve on our shower? Do me a favour. Even if he scored half that many in our league he’d be somewhere at the top of the charts. How come we never seem to bother looking North for players? There’s always one or two good ones kicking about.

[yajeed]

we did take some players from Scotland.

What was boumsong -8.5m?

[ellroy]

Last one though? It’s like we’ve given up scouting there, surely we should be the first club up there looking?

[DoctorX]

I have a bad feeling about this.

[DoctorX]

Thank god for ASM, fantastic goal and loved the footwork getting the ball away from the corner when surrounded by three players at the end there. Anybody else spot the fan doing the helicopter with his cock during the goal celebrations

[ellroy]

Some game that. So much for not having a beer.....

Oxford played well, couple of proper goals from them, and ours weren’t shabby.

[fathomfive]

Oxford played really well. They made us look devoid of ideas and lethargic at times.

I had that sinking feeling when Ritchie gave the free kick away for their first. You could just see it coming. A needless foul out of frustration from a player chasing down his own mistake is exactly the way we've conceded so many crucial goals.

Still, a game full of really good goals and ASMs winner was stunning.

Have you seen the dirty get with his cock out windmilling while celebrating the winner. Shame the advertising hoarding in front was for Viagra Connect
