We would also be able to sue EFL for the delta between what Shinnie was sold for and his true market value
Do you know if we’ve ever tried to assess values of players mid contract? A method that could somehow assign a true value. I’m surprised no-one has thought of it!

Been a lo
Been a long time since Mel has done the right thing…don’t hold your breath
I’m not an apologist for Mel Morris, and I wish he’d stuck to what he said he wanted to achieve , rather than compromise it by wasting millions on poor value players. So what am I suggesting he did right? Let’s look at the contribution of the academy yesterday, and acknowledge that for all his other failings, he left us something to be proud of. Just a shame he made such a spectacular mess of the rest of it.

Steve Gibson has just handed Reading a court petition for scoring. It states that if Middlesbrough fail to make the playoffs he will sue them for millions.
Has he? Or did he just write it on his toys and throw them out of his pram?

Referee comfortably their best defender. Two superb blocks.

Interesting though. If it does go to court or an EFL panel, we’d surely say “In which case, we don’t accept the negotiated 9 point deduction. If you want to proceed with this case, and in doing so you’re preventing us moving out of administration until it’s concluded, there is no point us accepting that 9 point deduction. We only accepted it to expedite our exit from administration. If you’re preventing that by supporting this claim, then you’re going to first of all prove there is a case to answer.”

Smooth on the inside, crunchy on the outside?
It’s the wrong way round isn’t it? You want a wide midfielder to have a crunching tackle when infield breaking up play, and smooth skills when out wide to beat his man.
Typical Derby to get it wrong¯\_(ツ)_/¯

couldnt the fans crowdfund the £20m to OWN the stadium, then rent it the club for free but with tied in benefits, structured around season tickets and discounted hospitality /events
If fans want to TRULY be in control then owning the biggest asset is better than owning the actual club in some ways
Interesting option. 20,000 fans at £1000 each. Or 2,000 fans at £10,000 each.
Does anyone know what the proposed yearly rental to the club is? -

He has got better and better and now doesn't look as uncomfortable with the ball at his feet
Just before he scored there was a delightful diagonal run across the box and controlled the ball with aplomb. He’s a better footballer than we sometimes give him credit for.

Win 2, draw 1, lose 1 is 50% win ratio and 1.75 points a game. So it absolutely isn’t necessary to have a 55% win ratio to get 1.7 points a game.
looking at our recent form in points per game
Last 10 : 1.5
Last 8 : 1.75
Last 6 : 1.67
Last 4 : 2.5
The trajectory is broadly upward, albeit with no real pressure.
If we go with 1.7points per game, that’s 46 points rounded down from 46.7.
Be interesting to see how it goes for the next 4 games!!!

Still time for Curtis to be a bit fortunate to not give a penalty away.
Think we had two better shouts
- their defender leaned into a shot and clearly played it with his arm that he deliberately left there
- Ebosele taken out well after the ball had gone. Anywhere else and that’s a freekick, possibly even a booking.
- RoyMac5 and uttoxram75

He doesn’t ever beat his man with much purpose though. If he does it gets took off him by the next. Or slips.
Fair point, but at least it’s moving in the right direction. He’s not been beating his man for a while.

Jozwiak looking tricky this last few minutes.
just slipped there but he’s trying to beat his man

Last 3 times Joz gets the ball he has been fouled.
They look very dangerous on crosses but we are still managing to get out of our half so its not constant.Was just thinking the same. If the ref is going to keep allowing this it’s going to be frustrating.
Shirt pulling, running into the back, clipping heels. Stops us getting any rhythm. B -

Cheers! That's good to know! I just don't know why these developers add these unneeded permissions. The consequences of losing my calendars is so high, even if the risk of them doing an erroneous update that deletes them is zero in ten years! (Although, knowing that they've been doing it for 10 years does help!)
I’ve just tried the link I sent you in Google calendar on my iPhone and it asks for those permissions too.
If that genuinely concerns you, you could try doing it as a two stage activity by adding the calendar to your Google account and then on your phone, selecting that calendar to be shown.
it’s worth knowing that by default, a calendar set up in Google calendar has sync OFF by default.
To check, go here: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/syncselectOne final thing, you can set up notification for changes to the calendar when seeing it up.
Hope that helps in some way.

Ffs. Either their player got the ball in which case it’s a back pass or he didn’t and it’s a freekick
