Re: Aaron Morley
I still think the problem might be wages. Morley would want at least the level he's currently on at Bolton which will be way above what we pay. Our other senior players would demand parity and consequently our wage budget would then be in breach of the Financial Rules.

On the plus side tho, Joe Low's water bottle is still there and has been used
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Not quite correct Bargey! Terminal velocity is not uniform across solid objects. You need to consider their drag force as well. Two objects of the same mass won't fall at the same speed if one is streamlined (like a bullet or a dart) and one is not (like a really big piece of paper).
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Getting into pedant mode, an anvil falling from an airplane would not fall any faster than any other solid object, such as a £1 coin.
Any falling solid object is subject to the force of gravity dragging it down, and the resistance of air molecules keeping it up. This means that the object will accelerate until it reaches the terminal velocity of approx. 120mph, and will then fall to ground at that constant speed.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
I'd like to rephrase the statement as "Anyone with half a brain or ambition in their head would leave the 2nd placed club in League One with an academy being built, a billionaire owner and a culture they have been a major part of building for 20+ years for a club falling faster than an anvil from an airplane."
Re: Other Football
TBH, I am really hoping we beat Pompey tonight and then get drawn against Everton away in the next round. My brother-in-law and his son are season ticket holders there so it would be a great opportunity to go there before the the new ground opens up, plus there is a decent chance to meet up with @ryan_w_kirkby2 and perhaps @manchesterchairboy too? Always good to meet the extended Chairboys family.
Re: Other Football
We're getting Everton in the 4th round. It is meant to be for @ryan_w_kirkby2.
