    It’s very warming to know we mright be so well represented on the fans panel.

    To coin a phrase “They think it’s a waste of time. It is now”.

    Bullshit 99.

    When we used to be run by amateurs and lived within our means we had much better players than the ones you have listed.

    I also notice an absence of current players in your superstar list.

    I don’t worship Sterling but anyone that does not accept he has been our best player across 6 games either knows feck all about football or has a different agenda.

It’s got to be a wind up Pat. If he really thinks that he wouldn’t have been released into the community.

What news have the club been holding from us MK?

Everything apart from please buy a season ticket and one of last years shirts.

I get your point though. I’m the idiot for expecting a bit of supporter engagement.

Putting aside for a moment the childish embargo of news from the club at least Coxy seems to have managed to sign 3 players that might be capable of competing in this League.

A commendable effort when you only have buttons to work with. We need more of course but at least we are not going with the chaff that was all the rage this time last year.

Sadly most of the chaff is still creating congestion on the training pitch.

Given we have played like twats for 3 seasons we may as well look like twats as well.

Ready and willing to eat humble pie regarding Southgate as a coach but going to just hold fire until he beats a good team (or two).

Really good if ultimately depressing listen if you have not heard it yet.

You can see why the club offered a contract they knew he would turn down. We don’t want that kind of honesty around here.

Can just imagine Harry’s text to his ex Morecambe team mate Alex tonight.

“Today was a bit strange. I thought they would have had us training with the first team”.

Sounds like a solid league 2 performer. Another 7 please including a few forward players.

Hope you’re right Ferrite – I really do.

By the way I’m not moaning about England. Just sharing an opinion on the manager and his apparent similarities with our own.

You called him a “winker”, what would you say if you were complaining?

There still seems to be a large set of England fans who still aren’t happy that England aren’t winning well enough.

I don’t care how we win Ferrite. I am suggesting that the manager’s tactics made the game against a poor German team much tighter than it needed to be. Hummels, Kroos and Muller are a shadow of the great players they once were but if Muller had put away the games easiest chance I am not sure we would have won the game.

Maybe Southgate is a tactical genius. What do I know about football? I watch the Iron for goodness sake.

Hoping to eat my words and apologise to the wizard from Watford a week on Sunday.

Agree any win is a good win.

Thankfully the poorest German team in living memory.

Top performances from the back three and the midfield two. Sterling and Saka did really well. Pickford probably edged MOM for me.

Not ready to eat my hat yet but well done.

If he got those results in 3 of the first 10 games it would be a massive improvement on last season.

Isn’t it amazing how all these players apart from Jordan wanted higher grade football but they have all ended up in league 2

They will probably be playing higher level than us the season after.

I would say there are 8 worthy of a 16 man L2 squad. I am giving Kenyon the benefit of the doubt as I don’t remember him from our Morecambe games.

Given O’Malley and Rowe had decent break through seasons from the youths we can optimistically hope for two more to come through that route.

I don’t see any of last seasons failed signings suddenly coming good so by my reckoning we need minimum six L2 proven signings to stand a chance of remaining a League club.

Our first game is two weeks tomorrow so it’s time to get a wriggle on Peter and Neil.

Our better halves are obviously more intelligent than us. Took Mrs MK to Chesterfield about 30 odd years ago. I promised she wouldn’t have to go 2 hours without a cigarette only to find smoking was banned in their old wooden main stand.

She moaned non stop about how poor the football was and not being able to smoke. I remember her asking why the players did not pass the ball to their own team very often.

Apart from a one off visit to the Wembley Orient game that was it for her.

At his age only two things matter. Length of contract and how much each week. The offer from Notts County obviously beat ours in at least one of these areas. Suspect there are at least half a dozen keepers of Sam’s standard looking for a club just now.

Busy night for Germany as they had a cracking performance against Portugal as well.

They were poor and fairly cautious against France but look a different side with the handbrake off. Hopefully England will start to try and win games from here on in rather than try to not lose them.

Surprisingly, Italy are the only team to approach their first 2 games with the confidence to just go out and beat what is in front of them. They have been a joy to watch. Theye can now give their back up players a game against Wales if they want to.

That’s football. Goalkeeper gets the blame for wandering 10 yards out of position. Hardly anyone blames the centre back for trying a Hollywood shot with virtually his whole team in and around the box and a simple ball outside guarantees a dangerous cross.

If I was coach it’s the centre back getting the bollocking.

That’s the rest of the budget gone on medical equipment then.

Seriously though hope the lad gets a change in luck. Agree there is a good player in there. Amazed to read he has played 23 games in 2 years. Would have guessed about 10.

Or could Mr Swann sign a few players and give us all something relevant to argue about?

Racial equality and indeed any other equality has nothing to do with Marxism.

Anyone trying to suggest that England’s footballers or regular posters on this site are Marxists is trying to justify their own extremist viewpoint.

Could we either get this thread back on topic or move it to the extremist/crazy people board?

Perch scored a 30 odd yard screamer in a Tuesday night game at GP

To be fair he scored nearly as good a goal against us a few weeks back.
