    Andoni Iraola

    Lots of excitement about potential signings, but I think the current player tailor-made for a high press is Ryan Christie. Did it brilliantly on stages at the end of the season.

    ST’s - average 9.7% increase

    Can I get a discount if I hand my rally flag back in?

    Post-match thoughts v Brighton

    Agree with all of this.

    Central midfield

    I absolutely agree. Felt a bit like when Eddie used to bring Smith on as a right midfielder to close games out. Christie was leading the press and his defensive contribution was pivotal.

    Post-match thoughts v Man City

    Rob's sarcasm is well placed. We're better than ableism.

    AFCB players playing at the World Cup

    Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere but with Kieffer and Meps playing yesterday, who else has played at a World Cup while a player of ours? Colin Clarke?

    New Manager Thread

    I'd love it, but could never see it happening. Better than any coach we might pluck from the Championship.

    Gambling with lives

    Sorry Dave, I've had it a fair bit from various corners, wasn't targeted at you. Similarly, I've never bought a car from Seward, taken out Frizzell insurance or have brand loyalty to Goldsands (did we ever establish what they did?), but I see the impact of gambling in society and know we're at a...

    Gambling with lives

    I think it's aimed at the right people because there's power in the club taking a stance. Twenty clubs cosigned a letter to government calling for gambling ads to be banned in football. The more that do, the more pressure there is on government...

    Gambling with lives

    I'm deeply troubled that we're partnering with a gambling company once more. Gambling-related harm impacts millions of people either directly or indirectly. Research indicates there are between 250 and 650 gambling-related suicides in the UK each year, with football often acting as the hook...

    There are between 250 and 650 gambling-related suicides in the UK each year. There are between 430,000 and 1.4 million people currently addicted to gambling in the UK, with those suffering from gambling disorder up to 15 times more likely to take their own lives than members of the general...

    Summer transfers

    I'd be delighted with Styles. Think he's got a high ceiling and would be happy to come in as a squad player.

    Like we did with the stadium a few years back? I think we can probably do a bit better than having Kings Park Cafe or something on the front, financially at least. I agree anything* is better than having another betting company though. *honourable exception to DWP

    Umm... is he?

    Expectations vs Results

    This has been said a lot, but it comes down to perspective, doesn't it? Scott Parker's job is to get us out of this division. I'm fairly confident he'll do that at the first time of asking, unlike the Tindall/Woodgate combo. The board will be delighted - his primary goal is achieved, the income...

    Thoughts v Hull

    Not for the first time, I didn't get the shape of the side after our changes. Jaidon Anthony seemed to be playing in about three positions, none of which played to his strengths. Rogers was barely involved, all quite odd and, well, pointless really.
