    Transfer Rumour Jamie Vardy

    Yes we signed him but can’t really afford his wages, so we loaned him straight out to Celtic who are paying 90% of his wage. Also, hopefully Celtic will help Vardy develop. Win win!

    Match Thread Coventry City - Queens Park Rangers Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Aug

    I think the starting lineup will be the same as Derby. Why change a winning team and Lampard changed nothing until the 91st minute at Derby. Even going from 1-2 to 3-2 he changed nothing.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    And a lot of players move and buy properties as a property portfolio, while retaining their original property. He will be on a descent wage. He has been on the loan road since he was 17 and is only 21, so a good chance that Cheshire property is his parents.

    What is happening at centre half?

    Liverpool used to never play top signings straight away. They used to integrate them into their system first. Dasilva has been playing well. So why the rush. Let Brau settle in.

    The Old Five

    No it refers to our record top scorer Clarrie Bourton in the 1930's. Although it was regularly sung in the Hill era to encourage the team. Even into the mid 1970's.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    I wasn't just talking about Perry, it was the 'need for an experienced battle hardened player'. Gary Gillespie had played 22 games in Scotland and was 18. Phil Babb was 22 and had played 80 games in the Third Division and joined us when we were in the Premier League.

    Not always, I remember Gary Gillespie and Phil Babb coming in. Both quickly became two of the best defenders we ever had. Stuart Pearce came in from non league and didn't look out of place in top flight.

    Or it was location? I find it odd he prefers Wrexham on location to Sheffield or Glasgow. Ok closer to Manchester, but the Sheffield and Glasgow areas offer pretty decent places to live. Although United and Rangers may have only been able to offer lower wages - who knows?

    ….. and if we sell Thomas to a Prem club for £15 million what does that do to Hull’s £20 million valuation of Hughes? Asking for our recruitment department.

    Or you can have BTA on from the beginning, running and disrupting them, not letting them settle or find their rhythm. It can work both ways. Probably depends on the opposition.

    What is happening at centre half?

    I think Thomas and Kitching are at a similar level and both can still develop. Going forward I would be happy with a competent back up to replace Binks. But more happy, with the harder to find, experienced CB captain type player, both of them can learn from. I would love Kitching and Thomas...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    There are lots of links in that chain of possibilities though aren’t there. It doesn't just come down to an owners lack of desire or ambition or willingness to sign him. There is another clubs will and a players preferences to consider.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    We are definitely trying to sign a quality CB with no one going out. But if we don't get the deal over the line we have enough to get by and then pursue the right target further in January. We are at that point, where we need to add quality when it is available. Rather than just go for an...

    He probably has more chance of getting close to it though, than someone who was on £5k

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Vardy has been linked with Celtic. They are desperate for a striker, especially to be more competitive in Europe, so there might be some truth in it.

    Thomas Asante

    Yes I think his failure to release the ball or take the wrong option is fair comment. Let's hope the coaches can work on that.
