Now that we've signed a couple of decent players, it's noticeable how the excuses from the Gompers suddenly disappear. None of this nonsense about how we are a 3rd division club, pay £169 for a season ticket etc etc. It's laughable the whole 'ha bet you regret not getting a season ticket now you plastics'. Nope. We've signed two really good players, and fair play for that, but we've still got a squad full of kids, loads of loans and as amateur a coaching staff as you can find.

It's a dumb thing to say anyway, especially when they are only about 30 quid over the original asking price. It's hardly starve yourself territory. If you regretted it that much, you'll just go down and get one.

Surely that puts our whole financial future at risk, no? I'm having that.

2 'Premier league' players who spent last season at a shit Championship Club that got relegated.
Just saying. Gompers are making out like we've signed a pair of World Cup winners.
And the love in betweem our Gompers and Huddersfield Gompers - makes me ill reading that shit, the whole 'great signing for you guys', 'thanks hudders!' and 'I'll suck you off if you suck me off' attitude prevalent in modern football.

This time next year we'll be having another huge clear out after finishing mid-table. Replace the players who realise it's a fucking mess with some desperate / injury prone / kids who are taken in by Edin's shit. I've been supporting City too long to allow a rush of signings to get my cock twitching.

I’m no Psychologist, as I think you all know. But Huddersfield fans are cunts. Even the ones who aren’t that bad, are still cunts. Will never forget their attitude towards Gordon Watson’s injury. Cunts.

Cunts. 100%. I worked with a guy who looked and sounded like Harold Bishop from Neighbours. A really nice fella. Then the Gordon Watson incident happened and he told me that the tackle was simply mistimed and that Watson had fallen awkwardly. From that day on I just wanted to punch Harold to within an inch of his life.

Been had again, haven't we?
Players who have 'made it' at a higher level and then drop down drop everything presumably thinking it will be a doddle. Just turn up and be the daddy of League 1.

To be fair to the cunt, he’s had a couple of games at left wing, a couple at right wing and one at wing back. And only one with anything like a midfield.
But as I’ve just posted elsewhere, you don’t need to spend big fees. You can get quality for free.
I think he’ll come good, as will Akpan once Hopkin has beasted him in training.

So far he looks like Gillead but if Gilleads attributes were all about 5% better.
I don't get what he's supposed to be - he hasn't got tons of pace or energy, hasn't got the skill go leave players on their arse and his crossing / final ball yesterday alone was non-threatening. If we can establish that at least and improve the midfield on what we saw before yesterday it may actually work a bit.
I wonder if he and Payne came partly due to the Collins factor and will happily fuck off in January?

Spoke to a DB recently and he said that we’d love #scanz. Just give him the ball and he will just run with it....no final ball though and he’s thick as fuck.
So as long as we are happy with a headless chicken with no end product then I’m delighted with his contribution so far.
As has been said it may be down to having played several positions so far and also that my expectation of what I thought we had got was higher but he’s disappointed me so far.
Garry Thompson or Sean Scannell...I don’t think #scanz would be getting anywhere near winning that poll

If we could get Scannell back to anything like his pre-injury best he’d tear this league up. So far though he’s been disappointing.
It’s almost like there’s an old gypsy curse on the club that just sucks the talent out of players.

That's when I knew it was not going to happen.
