Absolutely staggering to see the progression that the majority of the squad has made into the first team. Huge kudos has to be given to the youth structure and also to Rooney/co for believing in these players. Do we have the next generation coming through for use in the first team in 1-2 years or are these players all being snatched away by the likes of Liverpool and Man United? Obviously we're currently pushing all the better kids though as necessity, we just need to keep the conveyor belt turning.  
I'm sure we'd all much rather have a bench filled with own our crop with a sprinkling of experience than a bench full of £20-30k a week "earners" with more in reserve. It simply isn't sustainable as we know, and we need to keep the great camaraderie between fans and players up as much as possible.

Barnsley and Burton vs Birmingham and Reading – 17/18 Birmingham finished 5 points ahead of the relegated teams whereas Reading only 3.
Bristol vs Derby – 18/19, Derby beat Bristol at the end of the season. Bristol winning would have meant Derby 8th, Bristol 6th

Isn't that just blatant tapping up by Everton in going direct to the under contract Rooney?

Safe to say the Wycombe owner isn’t as well-informed as he thinks . . . 

Can we listen again anywhere? Sounds like a cracking interview, as always with Curtis.

Should be able to listen again soon on the Talksport website, not available yet.

No other club will ever be scrutinised like we have been. This is all down to Gibsons personal vendetta against Morris. The EFL should be professional enough not to take sides but they are obviously terrified of Gibson. 
It took a year or so to find out we'd breached FFP, a forensic investigation by external parties to find summat wrong. In the mean time we had transfer embargo's, got the 21 point deduction and still they go after us.
The other clubs will be fine, they will never have the depth of investigation, the need to find some sort of wrongdoing that we have had to put up with.
duck Gibson and duck the EFL.

My nephew was a ball boy yesterday. There were 2 behind each goal and 4 down the sides. As already said, they sit behind the hoardings on the track around the pitch. They've been instructed not to go over onto the pitch during the game due to covid reasons.

@OwenB87, you got in before I had chance to add another comment. Seriously, without wanting to brown nose, I've really enjoyed your commentary when you've done it. I don't know if you were being serious when you posted, but I would certainly have no problem. Keep up the excellent work, you and what must be a fairly big team to be able to produce such an excellent product, and at least this exiled Ram is very grateful for being able to follow my team even if it is from afar.

How would you feel if I told you I was taking over comms this season, dare I ask? ?
