  1.  

    It's been designed to boost shit viewing figures but I think it's going to have the opposite effect, unfortunately.

     

    It's like changing the decor and function of a "locals" pub. (Marco will know what I mean).

     

    "Regulars" will be paying customers come rain or shine. You won't be making a great deal of money, but you know roughly what they'll bring (low viewing figures in this instance). IF you plan to change the entire function of the pub (into a wine bar say), you run the risk of losing your "Regulars", in exchange for attracting a newer, younger, cash heavy demographic. That's fine if your plan is fool proof, but if your "Regulars" feel threatened and stop coming and then you can't delivery this great wine bar, you'll lose the potential new customers interest as well the bloodline of your old establishment.

     

    It's always a risk and if your biggest fans (Dr Who) walk away, it's set for failure.

     

    Personally, I think it's a move that was necessary, rather than the notion of the series bowing to the PC brigade. The series as a whole was getting bland and uninteresting, if this is the kick up the arse it needed, then so be it. Personally, I think it should have happened in Capaldi's place...the older Doctor thing for me felt like an embarrassing Uncle. Problem now for this Doctor, that this role is potentially "cursed", thanks to the "13th" label.

     

    I hope it does well. I'm NOT a watcher as per se (Only seen about 10 full episodes altogether, from Christopher Eccleston's Doctor reincarnation, including a handful of Tennants and absolutely none of Matt Smiths'). So as a neutral observer, I think this move was required.

  2. Don't think Davies is a leader. Passionate but I get the impression he'd be the last to speak out about something. Lookman is timid.

     

    Pickford, absolutely.

     

    Keane, Pickford, Sneiderlin, Rooney are the only 4 I feel could be worthy captains. I know some like Williams and Klaassen have been captains respectively but in this current squad, I don't think they'd be outspoken enough imo.

  3. Mate the publicity he's brought alone makes it worth while- our names everywhere, City are about to pay 50 mil for Walker from Tottenham and Sky are running Rooneys goal yesterday as main headline over it.

     

    It's about raising the profile of the club, making us more attractive to investors, sponsors, fans globally and most importantly players- Rooney puts us in a completely different league now. Yes he kissed the badge, he was a young lad and made mistakes but one things for sure- he never forgot us. Look at Fowler, Mcmannum, Carrager, Owen they were all blues every one of them and they are all Kopites now. Rooneys kids have season tickets at Everton and are mad Everton fans. He left for his career but he always had us in his heart. Move on and enjoy it.

     

    Said it before and i'll say it again. His transfer was a commercial decision that just happened to strengthen all parties.
