    Kelly to Burton

    He needs to be at a club where he can get games. Still has some football in him, a very good player.

    Nothing apart from calling out some sado racist in the crowd to the ref and stewards

    It's South Yorkshire. I have lived there, really friendly people except for one thing, a lot are openly racist.

    It's not as though they haven got black players? It is such childish behavior from adults. Complete lack of intelligence.

    When I said fitness I was talking match fitness. All players come back fit I have also said he needs time to adjust. Fans also forget he, like any player joining has personal stuff to sort out. If he is on the bench it will be mainly to acclimatize to the squad and match day experience in UK.

    Pubs for Saturday

    You will struggle to find a pub that does a pre match batch in Sheffield 😂

    Our Run In

    The team we smashed were a new team to the league below. The League leaders sat back on a lead because they had ten men. Not that they offered much with 11 but teams do have game plans for different phases to a game. Do we really have a top scorer injured? It's not like Gyokeres if he had...

    Our Run In

    The positive is that we got off to a slow start because of so many new players coming in. But we have still got to sixth. So lots of games left second half of the season, and we know there is scope to improve. So if we keep doing what we have been doing, we should be okay or there or...

    Victor Torp

    A bit worrying the journalist who covers Sarpsborg 08 described him as "not a very fast runner, but uses the ball well." I will wait until I see him in the flesh and use my own eyes and judgement. But let's hope we don't end up singing, "Victor Torp, slow as a cart horse."

    Transfer targets

    What we really need is cover for MVE. For me that is the one area we lack cover? I know you could argue Latibeaudiere and Eccles can play there? But I would still rather have a dedicated RB/RWB.

    Our Run In

    Just keep picking up points and see where it takes us. Pointless getting hung up on the what if's. Every team has what if's.

    Our Run In

    All fixtures are winnable. But we know points get dropped when you expect to win and you can win when you expect to lose Strangely enough the fixtures are the same as they were at the start of the season. What changes the landscape is form. Which changes week to week. We also know teams...

    Transfer targets

    The thing is even if the release clause is triggered it is still down to Vik whether he moves or not. The release clause just means Sporting can't hold him to his contract.

    Most players come back fit these days. But fit and match fit are two different things. Plus he needs time to gel with his team mates. Professional footballers all say January is a tough time to join a club because you don't get the pre season to fit in. There will be no rush to play him...

    Josh Eccles

    Eccles made a significant contribution last season and is doing so again this season. He is also showing signs that he is still developing as a player. I think his temperament has been pretty good too. I don't get the need to knock our players all the time considering the progress the club...

    Can't see him playing for 2-3 weeks even if on the bench. He is in pre season training mode not having played for 5 weeks, he has been on holiday. He will also need a period of adjustment. Anyway on our current form there is no rush to play him. In the current squad he is replacing Ayari...

    Transfer targets

    Well I think it depends how well he does the rest of the season? But he has to stand out and become a key player for them and score a few goals.

    Transfer targets

    Not really he took a chance to show what he can do at that level, even if it was with a team who were likely to struggle at that level. At the end of this season Hamer will be 27 years old. That is not old in footballers terms, but it is when it comes to Premier League sides investing in...

    Gyokeres Deal Details

    Agree totally. On the last point, Chelsea sell loads of young players each year which is pure profit and they receive a percentage with sell on clauses also. It is why academies are important, even if they don't make the first team

    Good one to sing to the home fans when we play away 😂
