Welcome, dear comrade. Perhaps you have walked these fabled halls before or perhaps this esteemed setting is completely new to you. It may be that you were invited, it may be that you have stumbled upon this place by accident.
If you need to place a specific blame on what happened last season, transfers are probably where you wanna start. So how is this window going?

Fresh from being released by SuperSport United, Mike Boxall might wanna buy his agent a few bottles of something tasty and bitter because it’s only taken him a week to find a new club and it wasn’t exactly down the street either.
