    I'm missing the footy

    This international break feels 2 weeks old. It's really annoying. Got me thinking that should we be in L1 next season there'd be NO international breaks and we could have non-stop footy. I know L1 games can get cancelled if there are a certain amount of call-ups but can't see many of our lot being internationals.....

    Personally I think not having to watch that sh it show for two weeks has been delightful

      That would be the final reality check. We're in League One and the game gets called off over an international break not because we have international call-ups but because Stockport do.

        It would be nice to hear updates of our wounded players from the offie so we can look forward to the next game.

          Yes, ignominy indeed! But.. the bar can be very low I suppose. Wasn't that long ago when Hammaleinen and Kakay used to clear off on international duty. Let's face it, they must've been one of the worst fullback pairings we've had, I'm not sure either of them are actually still playing club football today.

            I very much enjoyed watching England smash the Irish last night.
            I have supported Rangers for 55 seasons, since March 1969.

              I usually hate international breaks. It is borderline blissful at the moment though. Shame it can't be longer!

                Both are listed as "without a club" on transfermarkt.

                Kakay will surely end up in L2 in Jan. Probably swt his sights too high in the summer and missed out on a deal????

                  I can't keep up with the rules but surely an unattached player (ie unemployed) would be allowed to sign for a club anytime and not be bound by transfer window? To prevent Kakay getting a contract at say, Wimbledon, today would be a restriction of trade, breach of human rights etc etc. If he can't get a club today it would seem even less likely in January when 1000s of players become available.

                    Yeah, he could sign with a club any time. I only said Jan because perhaps club finances are set until they can move other players on in Jan. As bad as many thought Kakay was, we could have signed him on a short-term deal to help with our full back crisis.....is he worse than Santos?

                      It's so anoying, they tell us fans nothing. It's like we don't even exist.

                        No, he is not worse than Santos.

                          Only time I want to see kakay or Santos back on the pitch is around half time when they get inducted to our hall of fame

                              Performance director working from home yeah that makes complete sense. Maybe let Marti work from home too he can create training session's on teams. We've certainly become a soft touch to claim a salary with this uni graduate running the show! Good to see why Marti is struggling looks like no one else turns up in the work place he shouldn't be made the scapegoat here it's pretty obvious the mistakes are coming higher up
                              I played sunday league football today.

                              Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.

                              I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.

                              We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!
