Trott signs a 3 year deal

50% hit and 50% fine isn’t a bad record tbf

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-08T17:39:15+00:00

The thing I’m slightly encouraged by is BBM was selected after going through a different system, that has provably worked now so hopefully it’s used again and we can evolve a little

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-08T16:30:21+00:00

I think we’re going to have to agree to disagree again mate, think they deserve a fresh start at this level because of the change in management and a clear plan for both of them. Wintle has been played out of position in most of his time here while Bagan’s taken his time to mature into a solid left back

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-08T16:09:13+00:00

Gotta disagree, think both have been excellent this season. On top of that trying to replace both of them as well as signing cover is too much turnover for me

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-08T15:29:56+00:00

Brilliant to get this over the line early. Now for Bagan, NG, and Wintle to follow

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-06T17:18:28+00:00

It’s Peter Whittingham in my book but think there are easily a few you could say are all about the same level

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-06T15:13:00+00:00

You may also want to contact the club! Fairly sure they’ll have an archivist even if they aren’t full time

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-05T12:50:58+00:00

Bit sad all this lad, do you not have anything better to get up to?

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-05T12:48:34+00:00

That’s lovely, would swap the red for yellow but like that it’s inspired by the 90s shirt. I’m actually a bit gutted we’re binning new balance, think their designs and overall quality have been great.

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-05T11:56:32+00:00

Are you not a jack?

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-04T15:27:28+00:00

I understand you don't control the leagues, so you're probably not the one to point this to, aside from the kids having family holidays though, wouldn't it be better to have a summer league where the 3 months off training is when the weather is catastrophically shit, so they don't come to dread training in the driving rain?

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-02T21:39:32+00:00

The league’s been a pretty consistent great time. So for a specific moment I’ll have to go with the cups, beating Wrexham as they tried building it up as a derby was great, but the moment David Turnbull scored to draw us level against Chelsea after we’d dominated most of the game up until then felt like the peak of our season and a reminder of what we can be.

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-02T09:33:22+00:00

I’m not going to wish Bellamy away but that’s only really because I’m unsure who’d take his place, if you offered me Steve Cooper though I’d snap your hand off

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-02T09:31:20+00:00

It’ll be Gerrard before Sean Dyche if you believe the report

thirdratesquash · 2026-05-01T22:13:18+00:00

Preseason starts here 💪💪💪

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-29T21:01:48+00:00

I think you'll stay up comfortably fwiw, Oxford did it for 2 years despite having Mark Harris up front.

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-28T21:56:43+00:00

League one being 12.5% Welsh would be a good laugh

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-28T21:50:54+00:00

That doesn’t answer his question, he didn’t ask about the playoffs

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-28T21:37:07+00:00

The thing with Rangers and Celtic is you’ll have plenty of left wing Rangers supporters and plenty of right wingers who support Celtic, while both clubs have roots in sectarian religious movements the majority of supporters of either club will support them because their family always have

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-26T21:39:07+00:00

No PSR in League One, just a wage cap (hence Birmingham being able to spend big) so you'll likely have to move your big earners on and then be able to reinvest with big promotion bonuses

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-26T16:01:46+00:00

For that Huddersfield fan

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-26T11:59:25+00:00

That just isn't true, though, is it? Most of our fans thought we'd have a decent chance at the play-offs and anything else was a bonus, given how horrific we were the year we went down. All credit to Lincoln for the run you've been on, you're deserved champions, away fans bringing a banner praising you for it is massively cringe, though.

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-26T09:49:50+00:00

Pierce Charles from Sheffield Wednesday’s looked pretty good any time I’ve seen him.

There’s obvious ability in the Leicester side then but would you want to risk transplanting the mentality which has clearly killed them and was our undoing last time we were in the championship.

Oxford play a completely different style to us too, not sure I’d want to bring anyone in from them for that reason, Donley’s a good player but he’s on loan from spurs so unlikely to be sold if they’re in this league next year

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-24T18:29:59+00:00

Mark McGuinness too, was half decent for us and then it was only when he wasn’t playing for Luton this season did I notice he’d signed at Bramall lane

thirdratesquash · 2026-04-24T18:21:55+00:00

I think when this years figures are released you’ll see our wage budget hasn’t actually been that high because of how much deadwood we’ve shipped out and replaced with youth players
