First to open the seal on a coffee jar

It was a poor attempt to consume someone else's pun. "you have to stop feeding bread to ducks, it's not good for them, they gobble it down but it's not what they're meant to eat, it's quack cocaine!" :/

….absolutely no issue;

….i’d imagine with signing fees and length of contract he’d be financially better off elsewhere but that’s just a guess.

…because we have so many players out of contract, can’t replace them all and there’s nobody ready to replace Keane at this stage from the youth ranks. He’ll only play if those ahead of him are unavailable, he started the last two games both of...

My thinking is along these lines really. 1) They won't be paying him a lot, and there's no fee. It will be hard to find someone so cheap. 2) Our resources should be spent on first team players. 3) Our season will be dictated by how good our...

If Keane being our 4th choice centre half is the biggest issue we have in the squad at the end of this window i'll be very happy. If it isn't, then him signing a one year extension won't have been anywhere near the biggest failing of the summer...

You’ve not read anything I’ve just said. We can’t fix it all in one window. We currently have no right back. One senior striker No right winger One left back 2 centre midfielders But sure. Let’s go and blow money on a fourth choice centre back...

Precisely. Nobody is ignoring his limitations. We know what he is, and what he isn’t. The problem is expecting us to bring in a replacement for buttons, to happily sit on the bench most of the season who will also be capable of better.

I said earlier, he made 5 appearances under Moyes and we won 4 of them. As much as I don’t rate him particularly highly and would obviously want better, I see the reasoning and he isn’t the bogeyman that loses every game like people make out...

And if Pickford's arm falls off we'll be playing Harry Tyrer. What's your point?

Yeah they have all of them and yet still finished below us when we had Keane as our 4th choice and making 14 appearances. Under Moyes he made 5 appearances and we got 12 points.

Blimey. I had no idea the plastic tickets are no more. I can see problems ahead for us non techie oldies.

He is right though ....tin hat on !
