Re: Homophobia in football

Why is this still a thing? Just go look at the facebook post of Sheffield united and tyler bindon welcoming himself to the club and then read all the comments If I was a player and saw that from 'fans' I'd tell the team i wouldn't play for them and go back to Reading where he is wanted Honestly baf...

Probable transfer nonsense - Knibbs leaving

Couple of Knibbs rumours on Twitter/X. First is more believable, second seems like utter tripe. 3 days ago: @transfercentre9 Norwich City have made an offer of around £1m for Reading forward Harvey Knibbs. The former Villa man got 20 G/A last season in League One from 43 games. He is set to be offer...

Re: Speculation Wells Wells Wells

Would it even be a proper transfer window if we weren't linked to Nakhi Wells at some point? Feels like we've been rumoured to be signing him for most of the last 10 years or more

Re: Changes In Football thread

Was playing golf yesterday with some of the inlaws family and friends, one of whom is a referee in the Cheshire league. He's a level 4 qualified ref, which makes him eligible for a few local cup finals. He was saying yesterday that if he was to push on to get the qualiifications to become a Premier ...

Re: The generic transfer thread

Barcelona nearing a deal to sign Athletic Bilbao's Nico Williams. The winger has agreed a six year deal. Made his debut for Athletic at 18 years old. Exciting player. one of my very favourite players, and one of the big driving forces behind Athletic Bilbao's recent good seasons. I thought Barca we...

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

Look forward, not backwards. Taking the emotion out of it, is he the sort of signing we'd be excited about? 3 - 4 years since he was at his best, 29 and not much scope to improve, couldn't get in a team that finished bottom. We know he has the sort of character we want, but I don't think there are ...

Re: Champions League, Europa League & Europa Vauxhall Conference League 25/26

I nearly suggested an "Azerbaijan team" but couldn't remember if they were in it or not.

Surely there should be some element of regionalisation in the qualifying rounds to prevent that kind of draw occurring

In the last week or so we've had Sheff Wed not paying non-playing staff in full for May and Blackburn essentially binning their women's team, including apparently not giving them proper female kit and them having to use near fitting men's kit, including for the girls' teams.
