Whilst I largely agree with that, I would like to see real fresh blood rather than a takeover by say FF and The Louden Tavern (as was once muted). Maybe GersNet could be a power grab and run the show 😃

True. We really need to get through our first qualifying round - that is a must, as it guarantees EL.

Perhaps a big ask, but at the moment its a huge ask. As we have a squad that would struggle to beat anyone.

Pretty sure I read somewhere — or saw something — that depending on our qualifying route, we’re not guaranteed any league phase European football this season like previous seasons. Whether it’s Champions League, Europa League, or even the Conference League… there’s a chance we could miss out on the league stage altogether

Would be a big ask to beat either Benfica or Brugge for CL. I'd take EL now, hopefully pot 1.

Hopefully a large percentage of the fans will get behind their representatives at Club1872.

It would be great if the new regime could persuade the current board to stand down and allow replacements who are going to take the organisation forward. They are going nowhere under the current regime as they have lost the goodwill of a large percentage of the fans. There's still a chance for C1872 if they're able to adapt and get in new blood and a change in the constitution to allow this, but otherwise it's just going to continue to be an ego-boost for the ladies and their shadow director.

It doesn't matter what you or I do. But the club needs to ensure some key positions in the squad are filled ASAP if, at best we have a hope of qualifying for the CL. At worst we make it past the first qualifier, and enter the Europa with the 5 million parachute payment for dropping out of the CL qualifiers at next stage. That is a huge amount of money for us, it is there waiting. Its well known that the likes of Therwell and Purdy were at Old Trafford in January. This whole thing has been in the works for some time. The fact the only deal we have completed at the moment is one that Koppen sealed in January for Cameron is less than ideal.

What do you suggest? Do i need to look out my pitchfork?

That could take more than 1 summer transfer window though. Our loan system has worked pretty well recently. Im taking a fit Patterson over Aarons all day long. Celtic having Taylor but resigning Tierney wasnt a show stopper for them.

Yeah, great football when they want to play rather than all the play actings.

Hopefully Club1872 can build a good relationship with the club. It would be great if the new regime could help Club1872 to build and maintain their shareholding. It's the very least that the fans representatives deserve.

Very few, I'd imagine, but they do still have plenty of shares, and possibly some cash in the bank.

I hear this kinda stuff every year in our summer transfer windows. Last year was good for it. The end result was we weren't ready for a massive game and were knocked out by a toilet team. There is a big pot of money waiting for us. All we have to do is prepare well and go get it.

No more loans please. I want a team building strategy, not a series of guest players like we were setting up for testimonial matches only. Aarons may be on loan admittedly but that one may turn into a permanent one, thus obviating the need for another RB.

We're only a day and a half in.

With Everton about to sign Kyle Walker and giving Seamus Coleman another year could we do a deal with Everton to get a fit Nathan Patterson on loan for a year? We could then use Tavernier sparingly and it would bring in a player who knows the club and allow us to work on other positions.

Auckland are semi-pro, but they won their CL so are entitled to be there. It's not free, either. Channel have done a deal with DAZN to show some games. DAZN requires a subscription - unless you're @Gonzo79...

Won’t be long until we’re playing European qualifying games and as yet signed no one some things are taking to long to change for my liking.
