    He was injured/shir for the first 12-18 months of being there. But Brentford properly develop players and give them time.

    It's often said that he's the best crap footballer that people have ever seen. Which is what Big T was, when he was on his hot streak.

    Guess who he scored his first goal against?

    Yeah true. That's an example that we've done well with. I hope we can repeat it with the likes of Jesus, Bakwa, NDoye, McAtee etc, but I fear they will be cast aside before we get to that point ala Kalimuendo.

    That's an example of a player with physical and technical ability suitable for the level, who was held back by early illness/injury.

    Apply this criteria to your examples, and compare.

    Good outcomes are not just dependent on waiting a bit.

    Looks like the magic that VP worked with wolves early in the season has finally worn off, and they are now competitive.

    Neco wasn’t great when he first arrived. He’s developed very well here.

    Cunt club avoids points deduction.

    Completely skew football for all time, by financially doping the game, using the mechanism of illegal payments, and change forever the fortunes of the club to the detriment of all competing English clubs. What could be fairer than a fine less than 1% of the current squad cost?

    Swindle Town are very sad indeed.

    For a while, in my teens, I adopted Chelsea as a second team. No fucking idea why other than having a vague recollection of enjoying a team of Dixon / Speedie / Nevin and others interrupting the then traditional dull dominance of Poo and Man Ure. I also rather enjoyed their no nonsense left back Doug Rougvie seemingly attempting the hat-trick of getting booked, conceding a penalty and scoring an own goal every game. Whenever I played Subbuteo against someone and a player was flick-launched at an opponent I would shout ROUGHVIEEEEEEEEE. And then have to explain what the fuck I was on about.

    But these days? Cunt club.
    I have no opinion on Swindon Town, other than the day Forest beat them 7-1 in 2006 I was operating the lighting for the matinee of A Man For All Seasons. The role of The Common Man was being played by Tony 'ding dong' Bell, who was a Forest fan (I think he has subsequently defected to Cunteh) and it was his Birthday. I kept relaying the score on cans to him via the DSM and he absolutely refused to believe me.
