Blimey, that's one to look forward to in the Christmas stocking

@Macintosh’s post in the Waggy thread pointed this out but Ryan Conways book about the Cocu-Rooney years has a release date and is available for pre order: 
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pride-Before-Fall-Play-Off-Extinction/dp/1801505039
Be interesting to see if anything new comes from it and I hope it does well for Ryan.

4 days before my 3rd birthday.

Blimey, that's nearly 17 years before I get born.
It's amazing what they can do these days, innit!  

What his wife wrote on her instagram account …

Suspect we get a better version of Waggy than Coventry or Huddersfield did.
I understand why people have reservations about him signing, but I'd rate this one higher than I would Rhodes/Sharp signing.

BREAKING NEWS
Craig Forsyth appointed DCFC Head of Recruitment

WOW!  Where the hell did this come from!
Talk about out of left field!  😲
Say what you like about Warney, but he kept this one close to his chest, didn't he?

Five years to the day. What are the chances?

 

Lowest level he will have played at, he is more than capable of getting over double figures this season.
I think fans dont rate him because of the price we paid for him originally but he isnt that bad, to play his whole career in the top 2 leagues in England & Scotland isnt to be dismissed so easily.
He showed against top end Champ (Prem) defenders in the Sheff Utd friendly that he can cause problems so he will cause League 1 defenders problems for sure.

Happy to have him.
Like others have said, this signing doesn't answer all our prayers or fix the whole squad, but, it is a decent addition and probably gets us 10-12 this season.
Unless we try to make him wingback or something daft.
Best of all, he's not f****** Billy Sharp.

Almost unrecognizable with his new beard!

I think it’s a good addition. I know all the arguments for needing pace and younger players for the long term, however on a one year deal providing much needed depth and options across the forward line this makes sense. Welcome back Waggy 🐏 
 

I don't know what path you want to go down but the right path is to not spend more than we are getting in and have to go through what we all have endured these last three years.
 

Congratulations to @Owen87ITK and Alice on their wedding this weekend.  
Spruced up well, we expect no less! 
 

Finally, a voice of reason.

Was expecting a misspelt rant about the length of our injury list tbh.

He might want to play for a team who’s fans encourage him not abuse him perhaps ?

Like most yesterday I was gutted 
But the two goals where mess ups 
We will be fine striker needed 
 

We should be signing Sterling! 

During what?! 😂 Good ol’ autocorrect 

I created a thread to talk about Max Bird, the player, over in the Derby County forum, but it quickly got filled with transfer talk.
So I am heartened to see the transfer thread on Max Bird full of his discussion on Max Bird, the player. 
My two pence worth - he looked excellent all pre-season playing the advanced midfield role because we were starting from deep. Yesterday the build up play was much slower, so Bird was forced up against the forward line where he was much less effective. That's not his fault, it's those behind him being so ponderous in getting the ball upfield. 
 

If we want to be promoted this season then Birdy needs to stay at the club , very talented player who I think is vastly underrated by some fans, Max has been superb in the number 10 role in pre season  and Wigan obviously did their homework on him and reduced the space he had to work in, all part of the learning process in a new role for Max

Im pretty sure everybody is sick of reading tripe like yours as well.
