Quote:"Back on subject which I rarely am, am quite looking forward to seeing us have a full season of hopefully few injuries, Doughty in the side and those massive earners off the books". Maybe we'll just replace them with some more massive earners, the only difference being that now they are Michael O Neill's massive earners! It's possible but unfair to judge until it happens. One thing is for sure, they wont be nearly on the same money as those being unloaded in a few cases. We should, hopefully see the last of the big money earning dregs leave soon who have been a burden on our wage bill this last few seasons.

Pulis will be manager at Stoke next season So having at last found a manager willing and even keen to integrate our youth team players which is what the Coates family wanted to happen when they funded the academy, you think they will appoint the man who criticised them for spending so much money on it instead of the first team? If we can keep Celtic away from MON I am excited to see how our team develops and much though I appreciated Pulis do not ever want him back. I have had enough of watching journeymen footballers and would like to proudly say that a player was given his first chance at Stoke and we developed him. In the Pulis years you could only name about 2 or 3 in the entire top 4 divisions who had done that never mind succeeded at Stoke. Id drive him up Glasgow myself , , carry on this form next season and relegation is a cert

Pretty much the same with mcvities chocolate biscuits isn't it? I used to remember them being too big for my cup, so I had to dip only the ends first. Now they fit right in, shocking. More endorphins out of them still tho than watching Stoke tbh Smaller biscuits or are you just buying bigger mugs 🤔 Yeh he must have a sports direct mug

Get your point about journeymen players, but hope we don’t then become a factory that just produces mediocre journeymen players of little value. The Academy has to be effective imo, it hasn’t been that successful in the past. Granted we currently have some decent looking players recently emerged. I agree with you though, stick with MON.

Sad thing is, all the parachute money squandered on paying for them and players purchased since.
