EFL My Concubine - Football League and beyond 2016-17

ravel is training with us

i offer no excuse other than we put the amour fou into football

If the nurturing and stable environment of Loftus Rd doesn't work for him his next stop will be Swindon, then possibly crime or an Anglican religious order.

well now

at this point in his career i'm not sure Helder is actually worth this amount of money but fuck it it's about time we started acting like a bunch of megalomaniacs drunk on Chinese billions

probs more like mendes needs some change to pay the pool cleaner but yeah. tbf u only ever need 1 tsp quality added to organization to edge most champo slobberknockers

on that note ravel has now tweeted the number 14, to don our cruyff mantle one can only presume

otoh the current custodian of that shirt is jay emmanuel-thomas so maybe he's trying to warn us

everything...about...that...room...

somebody "artfully" placed those digestives there?

am having flashbacks to my last visit to Citizen's Advice

i regret posting this tbh the lack of plate is triggering me big time

i assume it's just shadow but the upper biscuits look different to the base biscuit

they look like they've got a milled edge like certain kinds of shortcake

lol i've just seen the mug on top of the filing cabinet

good spot, the bottom is a digestive and the uppers are ridged shortcake

wondering if they had some fake tactics drawn up on the whiteboard and eventually rubbed them off cos it was "too much"

just realized Adam Davies's Adam's apple is fucking huge

note also proper black pleather briefcase flush with cabinet just visible in corner

oh yeah, presumably that contains the bundles of twenties that constitute his signing-on fee

why wouldnt you start with the digestive tho. driving me mad

he's got nothing to dunk it in because some idiot's moved his mug on top of the filing cabinet

this whole thing is like some Magritte-esque deconstruction of an office

Barry Taylor wearing a pretty weighty sov by the look of it, mark of a guy you can trust

wondering if the blue bic being used to sign the contract isnt a bourgeois artistic overstep

guys this is too much quality for a sunday lunchtime

not suggesting barry would be a mont blanc man but he'd def maybe have a set of parkers on his amazon wishlist

i think maybe he did before, but it blew up in and ruined his previous jacket and her indoors rebuked him for his folly

guys this is too much quality for a sunday lunchtime

so transportive is this image that i genuinely did a double take thinking it was 3pm on a tuesday

only just realised it looks like Barry's rocking the sports jacket and jeans combo

a look i've definitely owned myself, no side-eye intended

second thoughts i dunno i can't see any indication of a fly on there

yeah that got me too. blues and greys tho, not incohesive from barry

idk how many hours of my life i've spent sitting at desks like these pondering my distaste for the plastic cable hole cover thing

the cover thing has a beautiful and thoughtful consonance with the plateless biscuits tho of course

i had noted that

also a personal association with the lucky coin i planted on the middle of my desk in Atelier Rorona this week but that was a bit abstruse

have either of u begun to hallucinate scrubbed-out platitudes on the whiteboard yet

wondering if they had some fake tactics drawn up on the whiteboard and eventually rubbed them off cos it was "too much"

christ. you'll be reducing real yorkshire to that minuscule glimpse of curly telephone wire next

and rightly so

i am wondering where the computer is, shoved right back on the left-hand desk maybe, or is this the age of the laptop?

would a circa 2013 company thinkpad fit in the briefcase? i'm uncertain

multiple lols!

having mulled it over for a bit i am ruling out the thinkpad as a credible enterprise solution for barnsley football club

thinking either they're contractual incentives for davies (one every 30 appearances perhaps) or barry has a private ritual where takes the 2 packs out of the drawer upon arrival at his desk, carefully lays them out, and then marks the passage of daily time with their consumption

final digestive is the healthy option taken in an attempt to mitigate guilt as home time nears and chides of wife re expanding waistline echo louder in the memory

hard lines whichever club tried to nick Mooy off us, sadly the cutoff point for City recalling him was the first week of the transfer window :×

luke freeman for 300k and big mathieu "matt" smith for 500k. no better than lower champo material imo but low risk in this market i spose

actually i know damn well smith is pony but maybe he can be handy for washington

Because
