No Cash just Vibes Txiki out

Txiki is destroying this club from inside. Terrible terrible TD. Also it's not only Txiki but half the board that are responsible for this mess. We sell our players for peanuts or let them go for free. We buy average players as well. Sack them all. The Spain enclave sucks.

Fr, imagine letting Eric Garcia, Adrian Bernabe, Felix and Lukas Nmecha all leave for a grand total of ZERO pounds and ZERO pence.

He’s one of the oldest EDS players and couldn’t make the starting 11 for them. I wish him all the best, but we have plenty of better young talents

You can’t keep every academe player, Felix was struggling to hold a place down in the academy team!
