Parkinsons football leaves a lot to be desired, but having said that they've had b2b promotions and are fairly placed for another crack at it this year

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.
They're looking shakey
Nice one Kanye
Birmingham are way too good for this division.
No one manager should have all that power
He'll give us what we need. It may not be what we want.
Am I alone in thinking Mullin just tried to bite him then?

Backed out, but what a camera angle that was... maybe saving him from a ban, I dunno, clearly wanted to do it though. Wild.
Genuinely never heard of Tom Brady.
They've spent an absolute fortune. The striker who has scored two tonight was signed for a fee reported at £12+ on transfer deadline day. And a few others reportedly cost about £3-£4m this summer.
Wrexham have big name owners and all that, and were paying very good wages for NL and League Two standards - but they really haven't spent a large amount in transfer fees by league one standards. When they signed Ollie Rathbone late in the window, it said it broke the club record which was only £300,000. Whereas Birmingham really have spent huge sums. They should dominate the league.

Has Beckham left… or aged 25 years? (guy next to Brady)
True. But if we’re going of money being spent determining a team dominating leagues then us and Chelsea would be top 4 every year.
I got that referenceJay Stansfield signing alone guaranteed them promotion.
I get he loved his loan spell there but I find it bizarre he dropped down two divisions. Start of the season he was coming on for Fulham v you and he'd have probably got some starts in the prem given Raul Jimenez started as CF at the weekend. He's also in the England under 21 squad.
Blues are still likely 3-4 years off seriously challenging for a prem place so he's giving up that length of time to play prem football when he had it this season, find that really odd mentality.

Only saw the highlights and never heard of Stansfield before tonight but he looked up for it. Super sharp in the box.
Better pay and you get to play all the time and be the star man. He's young enough to where it probably is better in the long run for him. A very understandable decision for a pro footballer. Birmingham will also probably get back to back promotions with their level of investment.
League One looks interesting. Will the automatic spots go to two out of the current top three or can Huddersfield and/or Reading keep up their form and push their way into the contention?
Even the relegation fight seems pretty open. Burton and Cambridge need to pick themselves up though, both in horrible form.
Walsall (7 wins on the trot) look guaranteed for promotion from League Two but the rest of the top spots all up for grabs. Only six points between second-placed Doncaster and MK Dons in 11th place. Postponed games will play a big role in the run-in.
Salford’s (3rd) last seven: W6 D0 L1, GD 13-1.
Relegation battle really tight in League Two as well.

Salford with their 7th win in the last 8 and they’re in the automatic promotion spot now.
Wednesday - Aaron Morley scores injury time winner for Wycombe as they beat Exeter 2-1
Thursday - recalled from loan by Bolton
Saturday - scores injury time winner for Bolton as they beat Exeter 2-1
Doubt something like that has happened very often!

That's like a story out of an old football comic.
A huge win for Huddersfield at Wycombe.
Big game tomorrow, Wrexham vs Birmingham. 20:00 Sky Sports Football / Main event.
