24/25 Wednesday transfer thread


Recommended Posts

The lad is in their Elite Player Performance Plan squad and it's a Cat 1 academy. £180 is supposed to get you at least UEFA B coaches, working under a UEFA A head coach with a training plan drawn up by a Pro licence or an A+ (working towards Pro) coach. It also gives you access to the club's medical staff and facilities and 'aftercare' if he's bombed out at any time.

So even if your wank or show little potential you can pay £180 to have your kid heartbroken after thousands spent trying to make him into summat he will never be?

Beirut is nice this time of year.

Always a funny memory for me: when I worked in Saudi when I was a lad. Our firm had a reward policy for long service employees, (not that any of us wanted to hang around for any of them.)

20 years: a gold Rolex watch. 

25 years: same but with a gold strap.

10 years: a holiday in Beirut.  

(I'm sure it had been very nice previously but at the time there was a civil war between about six factions and the airport there was being shelled.  No-one had thought to update our manual.)  🙄

A lot of places in that region were alright until the Islamic Fundamentalists took over 😏

Which was about 40 years before I went out there!  🙄

An absolute multiplicity of 'stories' that I won't be putting on here.  Even though the bastards never pain me my pension.  👀
