I was being facetious.

I'm quite a pessimistic person but I don't know how you get through the day...

I think a couple of Dutch sides are interested.

Despite thinking he's a good player, I've always thought he doesn't quite fit into Clement's style. And, of course, there's the news that his agent is flogging him to some Italian sides!

It's a good question. Haven't we covered this when the accounts were released? We're spending too much. Revenues slightly decreased 4% to £84m, but our expenses increased to £108m. That loss was offset by the income you listed above. I'm not an expert, but I think the business side is 'improving' - we can all quibble about how much - but the footballing department is not spending money efficiently. £5m on Dessers is awful business, for example, but even our wage bill is too much. I think someone mentioned that we have a higher wage bill than PSV (iirc?) despite having comparable revenues? They were streets ahead of us. It's not that we don't 'have' the money, per se, it's that we're not spending it well enough. I'm hopeful Koppen and Clement will improve things going forward.

I don't think it changes anything.

I can't believe it - We're skint!? Brand new information.

Just waiting on @buster. and @Ted McMinnime

I think he meant his signings.

Spain 1 - 2 England

But I needed the points in the GPL...

At least now when we reach this season's finals at Hampden we'll be comfortable.

@buster. takes the lead with a game to go! @buster., @onevision and @ChelseaBoy gained 6 points from JOKER-applied Correct Scores. @compo and I settle for 2 points for JOKER-applied Correct Results.

Nice to see Lowry get some minutes.

Goldson is playing.

Height-ist.

The CB at RB is interesting (King in the first half, Balogun in the second - maybe Nsiala?). That suggests to me a situational back three. A tactic Clement used at Monaco. It allows the LB (Ridvan or Jefte) to push very high. I might be wrong, though, as Fraser is playing and he is a LB (?). It could just be a straight back three in the second half.

We are - and have been for a while - short at the back. I expect a few more reinforcements over the coming weeks. I want to see more wingers, too.

I had 2-1 Spain originally, then changed it to 1-1 at the last minute...

@der Berliner takes the lead with a JOKER-applied Correct Score! @Yorkie Bear drags himself into the title race with another JOKER-applied Correct Score. @lenny3k and @Gonzo79 push away from the relegation zone with JOKER points.

You had to say it...
