    All seems a good idea until you’re going into a FA Cup tie away at Anfield or the Etihad and the team sheet reads Coleman Keane after Pickford because you’ve got a few injuries or suspensions.

    Yes said before a player coach role would have been more suitable, we all love Seamus has been a fantastic servant for the football club.

    Getting rid of two washed-up players weakens nothing. I'm sorry, keeping them on is only justified by pressing priorities elsewhere AND lack of resources. They are liabilities at this point - mere bodies to help us sell the "we will go with what...

    I'm not implacably opposed to Seamus. Heck, he's a great ambassador for my country - and the testimonials he receives from others prove that. I just want to see us move into a new era with a new culture, because, with the best will in the world...

    The strongest part of our team is Pickford/Tarkowski/Branthwaite and O'Brien filling gaps. Nobody is saying that should be broken up. The rest is very replaceable.

    Absolutely. Moyes has to have veto say as far as I am concerned. That's one of the reasons we hired him: he has an eye for a player and he improves players. However, by the same token, he will be held accountable for this power. Michael Keane...

    Well, right now, we are definitely going with what we have got. And it's not really good enough in the cases of Keane and Coleman... Branthwaite, thankfully, is the ray of light that allows some of us to hold our noses for now...

    All of this is self-evidently true. However, in the real world, Moyes will be held responsible for his decisions. Keane, to me, is an inevitable time bomb. The decision to keep him, on paper, might be the right one given the current options. But...

    I see the logic - but don't agree with it. It suggests Coleman should be employed as a player liaison officer or club usher. Is he angling for a role in HR?

    We need 7 or 8 new signings before the season starts so we have a squad ready for the season. We need to see a lot of movement on transfer over the next month. Game 1 is what matters not the end of the window Pre season starts this week so it's...

    You see, this is the vague, nebulous bit that I am concerned about. What specifically does he bring? It's so undefined as to be in the eye of the beholder.

    When do we think they will paint the roof of the base structure? That internal steel repaint job seems to have set everything back months as far as I can see. It would be very unsightly to have overhead shots of the stadium emblazoned with the...
