With the majority of candidates for the leadership of the Tory pary now admitting to having dabbled in the past there does seem to be a change in the air.
 Last night's question time was also a bit of a watershed moment with nearly every panel member saying they had tried things and the Plaid Cymru guy was very impassioned about changing policy. 
What was really telling however was someone like Mark Reckless, who i thought may be the one panelist to give a more traditional line of argument also agreeing policy should change and cititng the benefits of taxing regulated sales.

...most of the active threads on here aren't about football.

Meltdown averted, for now.

Reported to be a Slav target - could be the Morrison replacement.  

Play-maker, excellent dribbler and passer of the ball.

"Albion have a short-term project and a long project and they do not clash."

The only way I would have thought these goals could possibly clash is if we had to sell players in the short term  to survive which would conflict with the long term goal of promotion.

Assuming that s correct - that's got to be good news?

If we wanted to put a massive positive spin on it, perhaps he's actually been given money in the short term to buy players to  achieve promotion!

Is anybody else of the thinking that we may well have him for next sesaon? I really can't see anyone stumping up the cash when he's just got the 1 year left on his contract.

I guess if we have a chance of being promoted we might be able to convince him to stay or he'll walk for nothing if promotion doesn't look likely. One thing for certain though is that he's not the kind of player to sulk if the move doesn't happen. It'd be nice to see him play with other players around him for once rather than none within 40 yards if it happens.

Knowing our luck though he'll stay and fire us to the top of the league for some bugger to buy him on a cut price deal in January and leave us wanting for the next 6 months.
