Believe we had an interest in Galbraith about three summers ago when Chris Badlan was still around. I was told at the time some off field temptations were his main issue. Seems to have kicked on and done well the last season or two.
Apologies if this has been said earlier in the thread but Villa will want KKH gone before 30th June for PSR reasons so I'd expect some movement on his departure this week.
We are being loosely credited with an interest in Barry Bannan...

Feels a bit like they have picked three Championship teams at random though.
Mate of mine is a Preston fan. Usually a pretty reliable scout. This was his response about Riis...
'I fucking hate him. Lazy lazy bastard when the chips are down or he wants a move. Needs 3 chances to score a goal. Terrible first touch. Only tactic is to twat the ball as hard as possible.
On...
Apologies if mentioned already but I think it may actually make some sense financially to hold onto Wright for another year. Seem to recall that one of the extra payments to Antalyaspor falls away after this summer.
Used to defend Simms but it's becomingly increasingly hard. His touch is genuinely, unbelievably poor for a professional. He offers absolutely nothing.
I've been extremely critical of him but honestly think Thomas is the player who has benefitted most from Grimes coming in. Much improved last few weeks.
Thought Sheaf was very good when he came on.
Bidwell was strange today. Played the 2nd half very high up the pitch which I suppose paid dividends in the end, but he is often very narrow in a back four and leaves a winger with a lot of space.
