Thankyou ceaser. ... great read.
Just fantastic we've got people with the character of Eee-Van working in the background to give us the best opportunity for sustained success at our club.
Wasn't that long ago that we were viewed within the industry as a bit of a joke and the butt of those jokes. Times appear to have changed and now we're one of the trendsetters of the competition..... long may it continue.

As for Noah....sounds like the sorta kid who's gonna stick fat with his new team of "cousins" !
Who really knows what goes on in contract negotiations? Fortunately, Balmey's no dill so once again, In Balmey We Trust...!

Think it was Mooney who said that we were seen as being unable to develop talent. Back in 2016.
 
On top of all there is to like about Noah, he stands for something into the bargain. Working-class, trade union stock, a Tiger throwback! Go BaltaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!1

Let's stay in touch with that 210cm cousin.

Didn't they say he was a good footballer as well as a very good basketballer?
Would be ideal to add him as a Cat b rookie if he changed codes.

SIGN HIM UP!!!!
Clubs will tempt him with ludicrous offers....and why not!!

There will certainly be some clubs willing to sell the farm to sign Balta up based on potential alone.

My exact takeaway too.

Again, did some extraordinary things well. Has moments. Bad ones as well.

But you have to keep playing him.
 
Loved the pack mark for his goal. Has been dropping those. If he starts consistently clunking them, the media will go into overdrive.
