    Waggot: Mystery European defender to sign in the next 24 hours

    My mate has just text me with who he says it is.. I'm not repeating it tho as its that crazy I think he's winding me up. In fact I definitely think he's winding me up... But on the 1% chance that he's not I won't say anyway incase it gets out and scuppers the deal. I'd rather it remain quiet...

    I'm guessing this is a dead end, nothing more been said about it? No further rumours?

    Negativity?

    Oh another good indicator is the bookies odds. They don't get caught up in the doom and gloom or wild fantasy. They have us 4th= favs. So around 5th is prob about right.

    Nick Grimshaw to Replace Moyles on BBC1 Breakfast

    It's like The Sun of radio. I've been trying to listen on the way home this week. But it's very opinionated. It's about 50/50 talking and adverts. Not really impressed

    Anyone know how trialist is getting on??

    Centre half from Europe... It's Piqué isn't it? He's bored of Barca and wants a challenge for practically no money

    Negativity?

    When we sign someone people think we will win the league. When we sell someone we're going to struggle. It's the same mid season after a win or a loss. I feel our 1st team is actually better than last season, but the squad needs more depth urgently. I'm thinking top 6 if we get a few...

    As long as we get one of them I'd take it

    Nick Grimshaw to Replace Moyles on BBC1 Breakfast

    I'm hoping he gets the breakfast show at Radio 2, same fun and frolics without having to listen to a track by Rihanna or Kesha

    Importance of Formations?

    Yes! I've got a bit of a thing for this formation. 2 deep midfielders to snuff out danger. One as a playmaker the other as a battler. Then an inter-changeable front 4. We have the players to make this work and I really hope we do this formation.

    I'd say we have a 2 year window at a push. I can see us starting the season well, but Christmas and beyond will be when it hits us.

    Oh god id like us to and I hope we try. I just think after 47 years of being whipping boys, it might take us a year to get the winning mentality. Not accepting draws at home, grabbing a win on a bad day, grinding out that tough result away in some dive on a wet wednesday evening in Nov...

    The pessimists have to balance out the deluded optimists that think we will win league 1 at a canter. Somewhere in the middle is common sense. At the Euros some said we'd fail at group stage, others that we'd win it. I said then the reality is a close 1/4 exit ( I thought to Spain ). The...

    Nick Grimshaw to Replace Moyles on BBC1 Breakfast

    Think that will be the end of me listening to Radio 1. Moyles was the only one I'd listen to. I hate Scott Mills, he's utterly crap. I was relieved when Greg James took over but he's no better. GRIMshaw is actually probably even worse.

    What could it look like with Jennings in it ?

    Elliot in for Baker potentially and that's my line up

    Thorn: Has Jennings on trial.

    We are the club who rejected Kevin Keegan for being too short don't you know!! My sentiments are that he sounds good, but as we've already got a very small team it will leave us vulnerable. I'm no expert on league 1, but I expect a little more hoof ball played by the other teams. *i could be...

    possible new signing?

    I'm not going to knock the guy as he I know very little about him, but regarding his height... On his own not an issue, but when our other 3 midfielders could well be Fleck, McSheffrey and Bell you can understand the potential risks and vulnerability. The 2 strikers arn't exactly tall either...

    Team atm.

    We've got a decent starting X1 for league 1. Our problem is the backup and subs, a few injuries, a few suspensions... a few more sales?!?! We need more defensive cover urgently
