John Sheridan has this morning resigned from 7th place Carlisle in L2 with reports he’s on the brink of being appointed Chesterfield’s new manager in the National League who languish in 21st place Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The step up will take time potentially to the championship as most central defenders are of similar size and quicker than he is so it’s up to him to adapt to the level and be as effective. I’d be happy if I was a Preston fan tho with what they are building, they’ve also reportedly broken their...

I like Davies but I can see his limitations in his game, he’s a quality L2 defender and a valued L1 player too who in reality for 26 is very inexperienced arriving relatively late in the professional game and for 26 people don’t expect his naivety at times or non league dark arts that only sky...

Very interesting to see what the reaction would be on here should MR cash in on Burge, Willis or both this month if a respectable offer falls and he’s pretty sure they will be off come the summer. Can we afford to let them walk for free, should we take a few hundred thousand for one to help...

Preston have probably invested over 2 million this week in a attacking intent with a goal scoring focal point too that’s been prolific for 18 months all be it in L2 for a snip of 750k With that level of investment, that’s a happy January surely? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

FFP will undoubtedly have a impact on engagement on any deals but I’m sure the club will be wanting discussions as a minimum. Even MR’s quote that “I am quite open to doing something but I think there is a clear message coming from their camps” suggests they are the ones not talking at this...

So you’ll happily cut the development of Chaplin who is our own player under contract for that of a man who’s agent engineered a move away from the club. That’s the same man then leaving the club potentially hi and dry again twice in a season. As for players out of contract, it’s a bizarre...

And closing in on former Barnsley winger Adam Hammill Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Players Over 24 70.1 A Player aged 24 years or over as at 30th June is entitled (subject to Regulation 43 to sign for any Club of his choice without restriction on the expiry of his contract on or after that date without payment of any Compensation Fee. 70.2 A Player who is under 24 years as...

So to clarify you blame MR for Burge, Willis and Davies for allowing their contracts to run down and the sale of McNulty yet would have him back on loan putting the development back of any of our current strikers for a 5 months worth of football while also getting himself back up to speed...

And had a bid for CJ Hamilton too rejected by Mansfield. Looking to do some work this window are Preston Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Preston he has joined. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

What you asking him to do? Holding guns to players heads is not your usual style of contract negotiations, well maybe in Argentina but not for L1 in England. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

And the reality of maybe a keeper and central defender it seems. For me the task becomes a bigger one possibly this summer than what may be achieved now this window. Lots of If’s buts and maybes to consider. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I’m not so sure on this, it’s a step back in the long term. It pushes one of our own players down the peking order and game time they need more than a loan of a hero of last year. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I agree with Davies, he’s getting or had opportunities in the side so I don’t think it’s that. Maybe he’s just holding out to see what comes or has not been presented yet as Dom Hyam have come on a lot, or maybe wants a move back up north as that’s where he’s from originally. Cannot work that...

Yeah I agree, think Burge and Willis at this point in time are your biggest loss unless we find another athletic central defender with 200 games under his belt. A keeper in January is a tricky one to find too. Davies we’ve already Dom Hyam in the similar mould. Who knows what deals may be...

Brings my favourite question, would you be tempted to cash in on some funds in January or let them run down the existing deals and hope one or two remain. Personally on this one I think I’d retain them all this window, tho I’d be interested in what’s being offered for Burge and Willis. Tho...

A Marc McNulty home coming is gonna replace Carl Baker fiasco every window till he fades away. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

You’ve made that sound better than it really is.... Asked about the player being linked with a return to the Sky Blues, manager Mark Robins, who enjoyed a close working relationship with McNulty, admitted: “I think that would be natural because of the fact that I don’t think he’s playing. “But...
