I hope so but let's see. Maybe the equation changed when Tyler reported back. I'm guessing that he (Tyler) might play on the left later in games as in the Forest match...

I think he's possibly already got Palmer.

It's not the fees that matter particularly, it's the overall wage bill and the size of the squad. Fees either way are usually pretty marginal I would think in the normal course of events. If we want to reduce the losses then we have to sell a player or two for a good profit (we've done no...

Palmer probably is CoH's replacement.

It's win-win for the owners any losses belong to the club any profit for them. They'll be more than happy to extract interest on the notional debt as that is all income on their books whereas in reality these are historic debts are losses that belong to the owners that should have been written...

Yes. The club had already shown that it had little ambition to compete at the top end of the first division by then (with the Mortimer sale). They seemed to be quite wealthy by the late 70s with a serious bid for Trevor Francis from the Bennies but then, as you say, top players left Ian Wallace...

I was always surprised that he never played for England

Who remembers Dennis Mortimer going to Villa? Far and away our best player of the time.

They're o It always a shame on forums when people can't have a civil discussion.

He is 2nd fiddle, like it or not

At home he'll start two up top a lot of the time but away and against some of the stronger teams it'll likely be the box midfield. It's pretty clear then that he wants to play Palmer and O'Hare together, the rest of the time Palmer will be likely cover and a sub when cal has missed his 10th...

That's exactly why I bothered to make the point - people have totally unreasonable expectations sometimes. Kane, Bidwell, Wags all took a fair few games last season. Waggy had just found some fitness I felt when he got injured

It looked like Wilson was unsighted for their goal - might have been the sun. I thought Palmer looked very promising, He faded badly but that's understandable, we need to give him some time to regain his match fitness

I think so too - he just needs a goal or two

Absolutely - and we've not made a significant sale since McCallum. Don't forget the covid losses either, it's not just the EFL loan. Other clubs are in much worse positions because we're a pretty well run club now. It all points to players leaving, whether it's now or in January something has to...

Anyone up for singing Bob Dylan - You ain't going nowhere if any of the big three turn out?

I see nobody's picking up the point that Robins made this morning - the squad will be a little smaller than last season. Remember he had asked for an expansion to cope with fixture congestion. There is also the rule change allowing for bigger benches, which will disadvantage the smaller...

His nickname's got to be Harry, for sure.

Bidwell is just not tall enough for the back three - stop gap in emergencies and that's all.

I can't see all three of the big names starting the season - it suits season ticket sales to keep up the pretence. If Gyoks becomes a full blown international on the back of this opportunity then we can't afford to hold on to him and, frankly, he'd be daft to stay.
