Also just to make the point, we're currently smashing the number of users we've had online with the server not dying!

Our "usable" limit used to be around 2000. When we used to hit more than that the server would start to die. We've hit 5500 before but if anyone remembers that, the site was basically dead and not functioning.

We're at 4000 users now and still climbing and the server is fine. That's because it's bloody expensive! So donations do really make a difference.

(Also note that COYS, FTL, SO, etc have less than a quarter of the users we have on line, when you add them all together!)

You forgot Vitalspurs, he'll be disappointed. :D

wasnt a deadline day deal but modric came out of nowhere with a 1am article on the Sun



please no! i think he would get eaten alive in the PL

nothing on catalan media other than a link to ESPN's article yesterday that said we were in a battle for west ham for him

he is too slow and wooden imo to quote pleaty and his agent is Jorge mendes
IIRC Modric was already signed and wrapped up before the 2008 Euros. Not even closely deadline day iow.

Thank you for all the good work. I've just chipped in a ton.

Any chance pace is coming from the Fulham Whizz Kid?

Sessegnon - Player wants out, agent wants him out, club seemingly willing to sell but manager is throwing a fit and threatening to quit if they sell. Unlikely to happen this window.

Just been informed we're approaching 4000 online. Without help toward the server costs uyou'd be sitting in front of the TV mesmerised by Nats tats.

I will donate asap after the window. Unfortunately, have just come back from holiday where on the first day my bag was stolen in the rental car park containing passport, wallet, MacBook Pro, spending money, car keys, house keys and my grandmothers old engagement ring to propose to my girlfriend with. Needless to say I am currently finiancially screwed and had no insurance.

I was thinking the same. Ryan - being a Welsh name - would link that. Plus he plays a similar position to Ryan Gigs. But that's as far as I get - if it was indeed a cryptic.

Thank you to all who donated. I believe there were around a dozen of you.Much appreciated.

Now if the other 3000 of you who are posting/lurking wouldn't mind putting your hands in your pockets............
As a lurker, 15 pounds donated. Well done to all the mods, itks, and the servers.
