Stating the obvious I know; but sooner we can get rid of Kane the better. Closely followed by Waghorn - who I don’t hate as much as others on here do, but from the ITK posts he wants first team football which is fair enough. Then Walker - I actually think there is a decent player there, he...

Commented on this in the Transfer Shouts thread, but in short McCallum is a strange one; solid player, full of potential but big gaps offensively. One I thought we’d replace easily, but evidently not. I appreciate Hyam/right footed LCB hinders, but it wasn’t the sole reason. His default didn’t...

McCallum is a strange one for me; always thought he was good, and undoubtedly had/has potential, but had a few gaps - most noticeably offensively - so I was confidrmt we’d find a suitable replacement. For whatever reason we haven’t, yet. So I would have him back as we know what he offers, plus...

Jarki Monno - Wet Shave. Far from an uplifting song, but a really poignant one for me at the minute, so perhaps not as good to others as I think it is, but absolutely worth a listen.

Really not that concerned. It’s not revisionism either; I liked him when he was here and it was clear to see the benefits of a left footed LCB, but he wasn’t a stand out. There’s also the flippant part of me; if he wasn’t convinced he wanted to sign for us immediately, after a whole season here...

Not caught up with this thread for a few days; just read through I don’t know how many pages and I know no more than when I started. I know we’re all impatient but let’s wait and see how things transpire over the next few weeks before we start any doom and gloom. I’ve said it a few times...

I don’t think Kelly will go anywhere. Ability wise the club have now overtaken him, but he’s an experienced head and can still provide cover and is liked/trusted by MR so I can’t see him moving on. Waghorn and Kane have to be prioritis to leave if they are unhappy as has been reported, we don’t...

Pretty happy with Palmer to be honest. I understand some of the cynicism based on his lack of game time, and apparent lack of contribution in that time. But, he clearly has talent and the ability to change a game - something we rely on COH and occasionally Hamer (when he feels like it) for. So...

We would, but less than if they are here, being paid their full salary and not contributing.

Absolutely - that is my point!

Agreed. SISU stuff is boring. But hey, people need an enemy and now it’s off season and we can’t choose a boy boo from the playing staff, it’s back to the default SISU out stuff. Weird NOPM hasnt been a thing since the team started doing well.

Wouldn’t be that concerned if Rose or Moore went. Moore is a solid keeper, but probably made better by the plethora of average keepers we had previously. I’m sure we can find an equivalent if not better. I would like to keep him, but if he goes then it isn’t the end of the world. Rose has been...

Hamer out for a decent fee, with that reinvested in a couple of high calibre, well thought of talented players. Plus retaining COH and Gyokeres. And offloading Waghorn, Kane, Walker which allows for further incoming. I’d be happy with that outcome.

Some of the revelations on this thread are up there with some of the most mental stuff I have read on here - and that says a lot. Once things start getting personal and taken outside of this forum it’s immediately gone too far. In the same spirit, I appreciate it’s emotive for those personally...

I was being a little flippant with the ‘terrible’ comment, but in reality he is pretty poor. The handful of games he looked decent were the exception not the rule. Plus, if I’m trying to be fair to him, he never suited our system. Way too flat footed, one dimensional and lacked dynamism. Never...

May seem like an over reaction but things like that show how happy and comfortable he must be here - same with the pump it up clip last year. He is loving his football here and seems fully on board with the club and fans. He’s going nowhere this year.

I don’t think Brown would be too bad. His history is very uninspiring; a journeyman (albeit a young ish one) with no real rave reviews, coming off the back of a season with little football. But he was once highly thought of and like most players, with some consistency and confidence we may...

Info like this make the Kane signing even more bonkers. It didn’t seem a good fit from the start; older than our “usual” signing, not a rising star/high prospect player and one with off field issues. The latter has become even more apparent as it’s clear to see - he has an attitude problem...

Back to the Masunda rumours/guess work; it wouldn’t be a bad signing at all, as long as it’s weighted in our favour. So lower basic salary v higher appearance fee, clause to release of doesn’t meet ‘x’ appearances etc. Might not be the best deal for him, but it means staying at a good level and...

It does. But its also reconfirmed; with the right additions in the right positions, there’s no reason we can’t be in their positions next year.
