There are subtle signs
We live in different times
Whilst Pompey chimes are waining
The Chairboys drum bangs on
And on

Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
That tweet doesn't seem like a dig at the current owners at all? If it's in response to the comments from 2023, then it's in response to those comments.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
I wonder if Lommy is in the decision making process.
DR: We want to let the manager go if someone comes in for him.
Lommy: Matt Bloomfield, right? Isn't he the one who has us punching far above our weight, with a once-in-a-blue-moon type season?
DR: (Checks notes): That would seem to be his name. Anyway, we have someone better if he goes.
Lommy: Who?
DR: A chap from the Latvian third division. Analytics models show that his goalkeepers make more progressive passes per 90 than Ravizzoli does currently, and he inverts the CBs to receive the ball on their stronger foot in more advanced positions, where they can make diagonal passes into the opposite channels.
Lommy: Does he win a lot?
DR: They have lost every game, but the analytics check out.

For those three years, prospective fans wandered around aimlessly, saying they wished they had something they would not want to watch every week.
Re: Rumour Mill
GA also just said Shrewsbury may have to wait until the end of the window to sign anyone. I really feel for him if so - they have a horrible January fixture list, and I can't imagine he was signed on the basis of "we may be able to pick up a few scraps at the end of the window." I am wondering if the takeover was expected to be completed quickly at the time he signed?

They probably think Sydney Sweeney is an Oz version of the Met Police Flying Squad.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
If Dan Rice came out and said 'I think Matt is a great manager, we work closely and very well together and I know he is the man to take the club forward...' would someone shout 'Rubbish! Do the research!!!'

A comparison of the Twitter response to our Boxing Day 2024 victory at Stevenage with our Boxing Day 2023 defeat at Exeter City.
