    I seem to remember it happened once before a few years ago. Are they still posting or did they ever exist?

    Don't worry - Priti Vacant is toughening the regulations today!

    There's been no way to sign up for the site for at least a year. Now that function has changed, so anyone who has been looking to join suddenly can.

    I'm excited by the new signings, will shake things up a bit.

    Can we say that they are useless and will never amount to anything after their first 90 minutes?

    Almost like the BBS is a mirror of the club, a flurry of new signings all untested at this level. Will they be able to hack it amongst the COVID, political and finance experts on here?

    Hopefully gain some valued experience in year one and, if they choose to move on, will we retain an interest in their future?

    Wouldn't it be funny if they all turned out to be Reds players in disguise. Sounds like the kind of mischief Connor Chaplin would organise. He always has a cheeky glint in his eye.

    I just assumed there'd been a jailbreak somewhere nearby, and they were looking for the nearest place to shelter :)

    I think it's summat to do with the weather, spring and that. I've notice a lot more bees and ants around as well.

    I've often wondered if players post on here under pseudonyms.

    If new posters are going to make it, they have to get used to the intensity of ‘high press’ threads.

    As training they should be made to go through every single post on the US election thread then answer a 50-page questionnaire. Sort the men out from the boys.

    No better time to sign up than our best season this century. The BBS spreadsheet of new signings will hopefully return a good success rate.

    It's a Wednesday sleeper cell.

    Wait for the subtle undermining of Ismael after they've got their feet under the table.

    :eek:
