Röhl is (yet further) evidence of Channers’ rank incompetence. In Danny, we had struck pure gold, on the cheap too! The only way to make money in football ownership, is to buy, improve, sell-on. With a teeny weeny bit of backing, Danny pretty much guaranteed us promotion over a couple of seasons, at which point Channers the Incompetent could have sold, pocketed a juicy profit, and beggared off into the sunshine. Some owners turn base objects into gold. Channers the Imbecillic turned gold into sheite.

Nobody. Buying off administrators is straightforward, and they can barely get £20m.

Is she? Always thought she was a bit boyish.

Bannan, easily, by miles and miles. Max Lowe next. Close between Valery and Ingelson. If I had to put my chopper on the chopping-block, Valery.

Between us we’ve amassed 6 points from 30. QPR 4 points, Owls 2 points. It’ll be like watching prime City v prime Madrid. Some years ago I was watching a youngsters footie match. The ball broke in midfield, about 10 yards from the slowest player of each team. (How can I politely describe these two lads……..they both knew where the biscuit-tin was.) It was like watching a race between a slug and tortoise. I honestly thought neither player would ever get to the ball. That’s today’s match.

Charles, Valery, Max Lowe, Ingelsson, and of course, our best player by far, Bannan.

The same BBC whose weather-forecasting is based on heads or tails.

Hoping the ref is too hungover to spot our 12 players? Cunning.

Merry Christmas to all Owls everywhere. It’s been one hell of a year. During 2025 we all got our wish come true. Let’s hope 2026 brings the beginning of a wonderful new chapter in our history.

Santa has a new reindeer this year. Bernie the Brown-Nose Reindeer. He’s the one behind Rudolf but his brakes don’t work.

The cricket official who became so ill that he had to officiate sat on a linen-chest died yesterday. The end of the Ottoman Umpire.

There’s scores of different approaches to new stadium building, from Rolls Royce to Skoda Fabia, and the cost-per-seat varies enormously. The new owner will get his people to knock-up lots of scenarios, from a new clutch and a bit of filler to the rusty bodywork, right through to a gleaming brand new Roller, depending on whether they see us as a short-term or long-term investment.

Brilliant…but you got the wrong thread. I assume this was meant for the “Best gag” thread?

Yes I’d echo all of that. The new future-owner will already be thinking of these options I’m pretty sure. It won’t be an easy decision for them, and they’ll only be able to decide once their surveyors and engineers have fully appraised the stadium. Not a clue which route they’ll take, but if it’s a decent owner they’ll choose the right one for our future viability and advancement.

Worth repeating my all-time Owls favourite… Two owls playing pool. Playing his shot, one owl brushes a ball with his wing feathers. Owl 1 “Two hits”. Owl 2 “Two-hits-to-who?”
