We all love Nigel, and his bonkers Sun Tzu stuff. He did his job, we had by far the most talented squad ever for Division 1. Spent a record sum to get Lambert (guaranteed goals at that level). How many Div 1 teams could boast, Lallana, Schnierderlin, Ox etc.
Just a random thought. (Interesting theories about Black btw makes logical sense)
Another angle COULD also be that a trusted team member is “poisoning the atmosphere”
Not a belief of mine but also a possibility, it is not hard to analyse the squad and find a member held in esteem who is hacked off. Let’s face it most of us have had a moment like that in our careers and negativity could spread.
The RUMOUR I would like to see is that said “respected members” had taken some issues up the “Management Level” - but so far that has not been alluded to, all that we have seen as speculation is that Ralph MAY have given a talk OR MAY have overheard a row.
Gonna find some of those special curtains they had during WW2 that make your room dark for a few weeks while this blows through. What were they called?
Oh yeah, Black out Curtains

I heard that both Black and Puel are practitioners of the dark arts.
Apparently, they have wands and regularly cast spells on players that don’t pull their weight.
Do we really want that sort of dark magic associated with our club?
No.
No!
No, I say.
Wizards leave!.
Black has been accused of putting his wand in places he shouldn’t. Of course that’s just rumour at this point.
Puel is said to have had enough of the wand waggling.
He’s apparently told him that it has to stop and he also wants him to change the wand’s colour.
Black isn’t so keen on changing it as he really likes it how it is.
But reports say that Puel is not budging.
“Paint it, Black” he is said to have said.
why are you doing this?

To make you angry.
By the way, where is the link to Black, curtains, wizards or female genitals in…

I just wanted to say “beef curtains”. I’ve not heard or said it since school.

I’ve heard that Claude’s liking of magic doesn’t stop with wand-waggling practices. He is also a massive fan of Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band (as indeed any right–thinking human being would be) and insists on playing their seminal 1969 opus Trout Mask Replica in the changing room before games. Claude has recommended to the board that José be offered an improved contract, but only on the condition that he change his name to Captain Beef-Fonte; this could be a sticking point as José is keener on naming himself after one of the Magic Band, probably either Antennae Jimmy Semens or The Mascara Snake.
In a separate development, Oriol Romeu is contemplating a name change to Uncle Fester, though it is uncertain if this will go ahead as the Northam will need to find a new song for him and they do have difficulties in this area.

Apparent interest in AC Milan’s Keisuke Honda. But a) he’s not a fucking striker and b) he’s 30.

Yeah, doesn’t sound like much of a goer to me Bletch. Unless Claude intends to convert him in to a striker? After all, he has had great success doing that with Redmond…
Low blow, I know.
