    Reality.. they're all pointless threads...
    Threads are either speculation.. something that hasn't happened (except in someone's head).. Or
    Reactions to something that has already happened.. so again pointless because it's happened and can't be changed..

    The shear pointlessness of this board is the reason I keep coming back. It perfectly captures the pointlessness of professional sport and following it.

    Yeah when you break it down. It doesn't stop basic functions and doesn't really matter at all.

    It actually improves basic functions: half an hour sat on the bog reading this is better than half an hour sat on the bog not reading this.

    I don't doubt you bumped into him, and I don't doubt that he gave you, effectively, a sales pitch. I find it hard to believe that he'd have told you anything though which he wouldn't mind being public knowledge, or anything that would warrant you doing a full 180 on his opinions of him, without any action actually taking place.

    Mladen`s salary could be saved and so could probably one or two more positions at the club to lower the losses.

    I think all that Biddy 37 was saying is that having talked to Mladen he’s appreciated that he is doing his best and he has more time for him now than he did. That we are trying to sign players and those at Oakwell are not all just sitting on their hands. I suspect he thought that if he posted that message rather than going into detail about what Mladen said (which would then be picked apart line by line) people might just reflect on the fact that Mladen is trying. Whether he’s trying hard enough or whether he is good enough is another matter.

    I bumped into Mladen today, told me he bumped into a reyt nob (just messing Biddy) near Oakwell yesterday, kept him talking for ages and made him late for work. Said he told him a load of old twaddle for kicks and giggles.

    This thread is tragic (not messing).

    @Biddy- is this the player that changed your opinion of Mladen? Was hoping for a Koroma type

    Don't mind that so much.. it's where we are as a club.. Orient got to the playoff final with 5 loans last season.. so depends on the calibre..
