Whoopee do

British property billionaire - CEO of William Pears Group

Surprised so many see this as good news simply based on hope it will force him out quicker. If it does brilliant - however the alternative is the nightmare scenario that the club and ground are owned by different people. As horrific as things are at the mo they are at least owned by the same person (albeit in different companies) making a takeover theoretically fairly straightforward. You only have to look at other clubs where the ground fell into third party hands so see how chaotic and messy it could become.

Think Labour have committed to introducing it - possibly with an even stronger remit- but whether it will be a priority I don’t know

You really think he’d have signed a new deal two months into the season when we were rock bottom with 3 points and looking nailed on for relegation?

For what it worth I think he could be a shrewd signing If you're going to play 4-2-3-1 it is vital the 1 upfront is a mobile, strong powerful type who can keep hold of he ball and play in others and he seems to fit the bill for that at least However because he is not massively prolific it would put extra emphasis on those playing off him to chip in with a decent amount of goals - Windass, Musaba, Gassama or whoever As to be being no different from others: Smith despite his height is average at holding the ball and playing in others, but does have a knack of bagging a goal Gregory is decent at link up play but isn't physical or mobile enough now to play as one up front. And his best spell in the Champ (at Millwall) was actually playing off another striker Fletcher is I think more of a run in behind type and is looking well off the pace anyway I'd prefer better quality but do we have the budget for that?

What's happened to this goalkeeper - is he walking from Milan to Sheffield?

Some sort of swap deal involving Iorfa?

Why do all these made up rumours involve things heard on golf courses?

Clubs have to under FA/EFL rules - though it was probably relaxed last couple of years after Covid EFL 112.1 Clubs shall hold at least two meetings/fans forums per Season to which its supporters (or representatives) are to be invited in order to discuss significant issues relating to the Club.
