Stop the press. End the contest.The trophy drought ticker is up to 17 years this year.
Our transfer policy is all about building for tomorrow but our ticket prices are all about now.
Our management hiring process jumps from AVB to Poch to Jose to Nuno to Conte to Ange. There's no pattern to it.
Meanwhile our fans are constantly called "impatient" while we watch doomed rebuild number 3.
Maybe it's not fair on Ange that he's bearing the brunt of it, but the fans have had decades of failure followed by coming tantalisingly close to success and then being consigned back to mediocrity again. It's not helped by the fact commercially we compete with Liverpool and the Goons but when it comes to recruitment we're light years away from them.
But yeah, it's the fans at fault. We're impatient, see. The fans at this club have the patience of saints in reality but it's at stretching point. Of course it's bubbling over.
I probably perfer Kinsky to Johnstone. Much higher ceiling and potential. Only concern is I'm not sure if he's ready just yet and if he will be much of an upgrade on Forster for the next 2 months before Vic is backI miss the days when we were targeting greats like Sam Johnstone

Keeley will be third choice. I assume the plan is to lose all 3 of Forster, Austin and Whiteman next season. Vic in goals and and 2 young keepers behind him with potential to get to his level.So another kid in goal? What is the plan here when we have Keeley doing well already?
Does any promising 21 y/o keeper want to ride the bench for most of the season?
Austin got a new contract in the summer until 2029.Keeley will be third choice. I assume the plan is to lose all 3 of Forster, Austin and Whiteman next season. Vic in goals and and 2 young keepers behind him with potential to get to his level.
Foo-Kim Il on his way tooI think you are mistaken him for our new Asian centreback Kan-Ga Roo
Think a loan in the championship for Keeley firstKeeley will be third choice. I assume the plan is to lose all 3 of Forster, Austin and Whiteman next season. Vic in goals and and 2 young keepers behind him with potential to get to his level.
Didn't even know that! He better show something today so!
You have to think Brandon Austin is moving on in the Summer.So another kid in goal? What is the plan here when we have Keeley doing well already?

And for Gunther as well.
