Justin I'm sure is a nice guy. I don't sub or watch his stuff.

He did annoy me with the supposed massive news he had and it turned out to be an app or some shit. I understood why he provokes such a reaction from people after that.

He’s all platitudes as well. I like the drone footage though.

I think I'm just going to assume nothing is happening and hope that: (i) we get a pleasant surprise or two and (ii) we don't get any horrendous surprises like a first team player leaving hours before the transfer window SLAMS SHUT.

I’ve resigned myself to the fact that we don’t be seeing anyone new playing on Sunday night but I still think we’ll be very active in the last day or so supermarket sweep….

Garnacho to fucking Chelsea, because they REALLY need another attacking player.
Remind me, how big was their fine and sanctions for breaking SCR rules ?

Meanwhile, we aren’t allowed a pot to piss in.

It is ridiculous, if they came in with a rule that puts a maximum spend on all premiership teams
fair enough but to allow certain clubs to spend hundreds of millions while the rest scramble to meet outdated rules means that the premiership will remain a competition of four.

I’m slowly losing the love for this beautiful game. Doesn’t seem any point trying to challenge, or indeed dream of achieving anything, it’s a closed shop.

We’re getting close to two things happening, basically unless something happens today. Either it’s a really late “trolly dash”, which might be entertaining as a spectacle, but is majorly open to failure and strategically feels very at odds with our broader approach over the last couple of years. Or we’re not going to do anything, which would leave our squad really exposed - we need absolute minimum 2 players, but really it’s 3.

Neither is a great place to be, but the latter has the real potential to stuff us.

It’s a pity the Sky Cartel didn’t join the super league.

Well he's probably doing ok as we're all watching his content
Fair play to the guy for doing it and spending his time producing content.
I don't subscribe to any Villa output but I'm not in the camp for taking the piss out of anyone that does this sort of thing.

Yep, they pretty much got their perfect outcome.

It wouldn't surprise me if we enquired about Beier, perhaps we're bracing ourselves for a bid from Newcastle for Watkins.... They'll have a big war chest when they let Isaak go.
