Without doubt it would be great if he stayed. You can see how influential he is on and off the pitch. However at this stage him and his agent would be mad not to see what’s on offer. My instinct says he’ll be off I’m hoping in the summer but if he hasn’t signed and a good offer comes in I’m sure...

Tbf it’s disappointing no cm but kitching coming in is a good move. Looked very good for Barnsley in the playoff final. Hopefully team is good enough to stay in touch with the top half of the table and then a get someone really decent lined up for Jan with the hamer money and we can push on.

Yeh not a bad shout for me if we can’t get who we really want for the hamer replacement he might be good to have on a two year deal to see us through to jan/next summer when the right players become available. See everyone saying we sold hamer three weeks ago and we’ve got no one in I...

Yeh I thought he improved Sunderland when he came on last week. Finds space well and passing was quick and accurate. At 30 doesn’t really fit the type of player we go for but I wouldn’t be disappointed if we did.

You would have thought any deal for any European player needs to be done today or tomorrow as you’re running out of time logistically to get it done. So if Brekalo and the cm are coming you’d like to think we’d get a move on. Seems funny to let Howley go and not have someone as good as over the...

And if once he heard of our interest and spoke to the gaffer whether it was a no brainer

Bring him in on loan and I think the back line is sorted. Humphries and binks competing for lcb. I think lati had a good game today but you could see at times in this game and against exeter he’s not entirely comfortable on the left of a back 3. if you are then gonna play Thomas (who was...

I was thinking this as well… like where a team finishes means all their players are shite. I can think of a few players from teams that finished bottom half of the champ last season I wouldn’t mind and as someone pointed out the Turkish league is ranked by fifa one place below the championship...

To be honest I’m at the point now of what will be will be. If we are desperate for some cash I’m sure he will be flogged before the deadline if the club get the offer they want. if they don’t and he stays and runs his contract down yes it will frustrating to have lost out on a fee for him but...

Would be a big blow that’s for sure. He links so much of the team together not to mention his work rate without the ball and breaking up play. Could have seen him linking really well with van ewijk and slipping him behind the defence. Still if he wants to go not much the club can do just hope...

Strange you can imagine he wanted to come back here. Can only think burnley were asking for more than what we thought he was worth. Robins did make a point of saying that we would not be overspending on players.

Yeah defo another two strikers needed one loan and one perm hopefully. Another lcb and a midfielder would be great.

You say that but I think the one thing Robins does want is depth. I think he’d like to be able to rotate a lot more and have quality to replace quality something we haven’t been able to do. The versatility of the players he’s signing as well I think he wants to be able to change the formation up...

Can see us getting binks and Whatmough. Think we’d prob like kitching but haven’t just signed a new contract Barnsley likely want too much for him. Possibly go back in for kitching next year if fadz leaves at end of his contract.

Him and simms would already have that understanding as well so would be an exciting prospect. A lot of clubs will be in for him tho so we’d do well to get him.

To be fair I’d forgotten about Godden lol by all accounts sounds like he had a good game tonight. Maybe with sakamoto we might get more balls into the box and play to his strengths. If he goes then we need that more experienced striker if he doesn’t I’d just sign a prem loan and another partner...

The quote in the telegraph says recruitment so far has been good but we are looking for another ten. not “at another ten” For me either way I think he defo implies he wants another 10 signings.

Agree with this would really like Kitching thought he looked really good in their playoff final but might be difficult to do as Barnsley already lost key players so you would be paying over the odds. Cashin a good shout tho.

Think I’d prob go 4 CB (2 left sided, 1 central and 1 right sided) 3 Fwd (partner for Simms, one good backup young prem loan, one experienced striker) 1RB 1CM 1 LW/LWB A mixture of perms and loans. Think he will try and get someone versatile similar to Sakamoto on the left. More winger like...

So like some have suggested he could play out his contract to go back there if he really wants to. To be honest would just love to know either way. Would be hard to lose hamer and vik in one window so if he runs his contract down although shit for the club maybe would help with transition...
