Seen lots of chatter about Watkins. Are any of the eds aware of our serious interest please?
{Ed014's Note - not seen anything about Watkins at all Sally, aside from the January bid that came to nothing.
We really are going to get linked with every striker under the sun in the coming days.
It’s how news outlets make their dosh.
1.) 16 Jun 2025 21:25:39
Thanks ed014.
{Ed014's Note - no problem Sally, appreciating that wasn’t much help at all.
We do miss our ed02 bless him.
2.) 17 Jun 2025 19:59:09
Sell Kai and replace with Watkins . That would be a great but if business
Buy a decent first choice striker
Come on boss - you know what makes sense….
? ???.
3.) 17 Jun 2025 21:59:19
I’ve heard Higuain. COYG!
11 Jun 2025 20:46:07
If the rumour I've just seen has legs, I would be very happy to welcome Anthony Elanger to the Emirates ?.
{Ed014's Note - I want to comment but my mum always told me, if you’ve got nothing nice to say, say nothing at all. ??
1.) 11 Jun 2025 23:01:55
Not a fan then Ed?
{Ed014's Note - no Sally not really, don’t think he’s even a regular starter for Forest, not much in the way of goals or assists.
Think his level is where he is.
2.) 12 Jun 2025 08:37:08
If 14 had his way, we'd never have fat players, lazy players, ugly players, big nosed players, and the list goes on. Just ask Sussex.
{Ed014's Note - your lucky I don’t use that criteria to bin off posters! ?
3.) 12 Jun 2025 20:24:07
That's me binned off then???.
{Ed014's Note - No never HB!?
4.) 12 Jun 2025 20:49:36
Cheers Ed, got immunity??.
{Ed014's Note - 100% mate?
5.) 12 Jun 2025 21:43:09
No idea what you mean, I look like that Lamela chap! iykyk.
{Ed014's Note - and driver a Subaru by chance? ??
6.) 12 Jun 2025 21:55:30
Don't be daft! I'm not that far off the reservation ?.
{Ed014's Note - ???
7.) 15 Jun 2025 12:31:02
Where did that Subaru driver go?
8.) 16 Jun 2025 08:44:22
SY, I wasn't here when it happened, but I heard he went more boy racist than boy racer, and he got the boot.
10 Jun 2025 09:40:39
Ornstein has just confirmed we have signed Zubimendi! Hope it's not a fake Ornstein lol.
07 Jun 2025 09:15:48
Morning eds, I've seen lots of chatter about Villa's Morgan Rogers. He seems very versatile. Do arsenal hold any interest does anyone know?
Also Konstantinos Karetsas as a possible Odegaard understudy?
{Ed001's Note - you did in the past, not sure if Berta does though.
I don't have any info on Karetsas sorry.}
1.) 07 Jun 2025 15:01:38
Cheers ed001, I appreciate your response.
{Ed001's Note - very welcome Sally, I would think you are passing on Rogers as Villa's PSR situation would have made a bid in this window favourable.}
2.) 11 Jun 2025 16:30:42
Doesn't PSR close each year on 30th June? Still time for Villa to make moves once things reopen on 16th.
Or has that changed now with this new window?
07 Jun 2025 09:17:24
Great to see big Gabi has signed a new 4 year contract ? ?.
1.) 08 Jun 2025 07:04:25
Agreed, and shows how the rumours have just been nonsense. Without the injury he would have been our player of the season.

Sad news about Mudryk. I wonder if he had came to us whether things would have worked out differently.
1.) 18 Jun 2025 23:19:26
Ed001, if you have any insight, how common is doping in football? I'm always surprised it comes up so infrequently and isn't rife with so much money at stake and seasons getting longer, with more and more games and small margins making a difference whether it be institutional and a team trying to push their players to play longer and harder or more clandestine and a young player who may be on the cusp of either making it or being let go or an older player has lost his pace and stamina still trying to keep up.
{Ed001's Note - it is very common but sports don't want to catch them as it could destroy the game's image. Cycling went from one of the biggest sports in the world to a minor sport because they caught the dopers. Other sports are afraid it would affect sponsorship. In England, the FA will allow players under a doping ban to be recorded as injured if they attend rehab. The only time it becomes public, like Mudryk, is when the player contests it. Usually though, they just put their hands up and accept they have been caught.}
2.) 19 Jun 2025 06:58:45
Thanks ed001. My sport until a couple years ago was Olympic weightlifting and I often wondered what would happen long term. The viewership is increasing every year, but the doping bans come constantly and the IOC wants to bin off the sport because of image problems. Yet I can't help but think it's naive to assume some sports are clean because people don't get caught - "tested" is all relative.
{Ed001's Note - very much so mate, I doubt any professional sport is clean.}
3.) 19 Jun 2025 09:26:11
Thanks ed, yeah I suspected with what's at stake there would be lots of it.
How come there's no whistleblowers, clean players, or someone like Mudryk who's been thrown under the bus with nothing to lose outing it?
{Ed001's Note - because doping is not as vital in a sport like footie. It doesn't improve a player technically or help them read the game.}
4.) 19 Jun 2025 14:14:51
Really interesting discussion lads. I was always curious about this topic.
There was obviously allegations about Peps Barcelona team and G Nev and Keano alluded to something about some of the Italian teams on their podcast a while back.
Wasn't Lance Armstrongs Italian doctor somehow involved in football back a few years ago?
Did you ever do an article on this topic ed? If there is one would you have a link to it?
{Ed001's Note - it is not really possible to write about it, too many legal issues to navigate. It was one of the other doctors involved in cycling at the time, Fuentes, who revealed football involvement. He actually admitted working with Barca, Madrid, Juve and others including the Spanish national team. He actually said, in court under oath, that the Spanish national team would be stripped off all their trophies if they knew what he had done with them. Unfortunately, it was in a Spanish court, where he was being sued by one of the riders he had treated who had nearly died due to his treatments, and the judge ordered all the evidence to be destroyed.}
5.) 19 Jun 2025 19:45:37
Why is it sad - he took drugs to cheat. I don’t get it.
How did you view Ben Johnson.
What am I missing?
{Ed001's Note - you know that Ben Johnson was not the only one doped in that race right? In fact only 2 were clean. Carl Lewis is the biggest cheat of all time as he so ehow still has the cheek to claim he had never doped even though he had served bans in college athletics for doping and has since been proven to have been as doped as Johnson.}
6.) 20 Jun 2025 00:27:18
Sorry Ed001, I was just picking him out as an example not listing everyone. More to say why should I feel sorry if he cheated just because we were linked with him? because he’s young? Did we feel sorry for the drugged up athletes or the ones that were robbed of their opportunity to cross the line first plus pick up a medal on the day rather than 6 months later in the post… not an expert. In this or any area really.
7.) 20 Jun 2025 00:31:01
Ed, but thank you as going to read up about it now!
{Ed001's Note - I do agree, it is clean athletes that are the ones to feel sorry for, but it does feel bad that the worst cheats are still able to get away with it.}
8.) 20 Jun 2025 16:51:22
Yes of course cheats should be punished Sy. I read it could have been pressure from an outside source/ could be accidental/ coach suggested some supplements. Lots of suggestions. Who knows?
He just seemed a kid from a war torn country, getting abuse from the Chelsea fans because he wasn't as successful as the huge price tag suggests he should have been. Point taken though and I am normally pretty harsh on cheats. Bit like Man City getting fined over £1m yet again for delaying the start of games. Two years running!
07 Jun 2025 18:14:48
What about Madueke? plays on both wings it seems.
27 May 2025 09:58:49
What an awful thing to happen at Liverpool's celebrations. From such happiness to sadness in a second.
1.) 27 May 2025 14:49:56
It's unbelievably tragic Sally, what would possess someone to do such a thing is totally beyond comprehension but whatever their motivate they are clearly very unwell human being.
2.) 27 May 2025 15:08:19
It was shocking - 4 people under the vehicle…so sad.
25 May 2025 09:00:09
Garnacho anyone?
{Ed025's Note - really Sally?, he misses more chances than Havertz mate..
1.) 25 May 2025 09:32:25
Whenever I've seen him play for United Sally I always think he alone highlights why they are as bad as they are. All flash and no cash as they say in Chepstow.
2.) 25 May 2025 11:39:29
That's a no then lol.
3.) 25 May 2025 14:28:05
Sorry Sally, it's definitely a no from me ?.
4.) 25 May 2025 15:09:35
If I had to take a punt then I will go for Grealish, he will offer something different to Martinelli. He needs a good manager to get the best out of him, not sure if Arteta has those people management skills though.
{Ed014's Note - you’re not sure if Arteta has people management skills, really?
As for Grealish, not for me.

I've read he still wants European football Banbury. Hope so!

He now reckons we are interested in Newcastle's Gordon.
08 Jun 2025 10:32:54
Sy and Sharpie, which really decent keeper would come as a backup to Raya?
If Madrid come in for Raya it would be a very different matter I reckon and then we'd have to go all out for a new no.1 keeper!
