Hard to see where Jamie Allen fits in once O'Hare is back, even if we don't sign any further midfielders before Sept 1st. The 2 CM spots will surely be fought out between Ayari, Sheaf, Eccles & Kelly, and AM will be between O'Hare, Palmer and Sakamoto. Will be decent to have in and around the...

Any news? I know O'Hare's back in training, but haven't seen Fabio. I presume the plan is to get him fit and then out on loan for match sharpness.

He looked so steady and reliable during the 21/22 season. His errors against Sunderland, Millwall, Hull and Wrexham last season though were truly shocking

Robins would never have it, if the rumours are true that he’s a big time Charlie. He ships out wrong on’s quickly.or keeps them away from the 1st Team e.g Junior Brown,

Waste of a signing / loan. Eccles and Sakamoto can cover there. Recall Burroughs as a last resort. MVE will clearly be 1st choice. Think Ayari will be used as a AM, and compete with Palmer, Tats and O’Hare. Can also see the big signing being a DM/CM. And 2 CBs if we can

As everyone and Robins says, it will take time for us to fully click, but to totallly dominate Leicester & Swansea in their backyards is no mean feat. I thought we were a little slack against Boro to be honest, and they really should of equalised before Wright's goal, but had they done I stil...

Godden is almost an old fashioned striker. He relies on his clever runs, intellgience and finishing. He's not pacey, doesn't dribble and isn't a battering ram. I have no doubt he would score goals in the Premier League if he was give the right role, and decent service. The goal he scored...

If there are no new signings, or they are not ready, I would keep the same team and bring in Palmer for Tats. Tats and Simms will be our super subs if need be....

Glad to see we have returned to our clever passing game, instead of the route one to Vik style. Some of our football was absolutely superb yesterday, without creating those crystal clear chances. Swansea and Leicester away are probably 2 of the toughest games of the season, and we should of...

Wilson 7 MVE 7 Da Silva 6 Thomas 6 Fadz 8 Labs 7 Eccles 6 Sheaf 8 Sakamoto 9 (MoM) Godden 7 Wright 7 Simms 7 Kelly 7 Swansea are a good side. The way we totally dominated them for large periods of the game shows how good we are. Tats - Like another O’Hare. Brilliant strength, trickery and...

Not sure why Palmer is getting all this grief....In 21/22 Pearson didn't fancy him, so he didn't play. He wasn't injured. He came here woefuly short of match fitness, understandbly based on the above. By October he was fit, and starting matches. Severe hamstring strain in March ended his season...

Nope. Fantastic player. Ok, he may not play 46 games, but that's alright now we have Sakamoto, Allen, O'Hare and the incoming AM/ST to cover. When Palmer plays, he delivers. He tore Leciester apart with his clever passing, and took the corner that lead to Wright's goal against Boro. Hopefully...

Absolutely world class. He’s going to be some player this season. Robins & Viveash have reignited his career.

I actually thought Simms did alright, but Wright looks like the real deal. Great finish as well. Godden looks like a new player, great interchanges in the box with Simms and Wright. I think the Godden-Vik fallout maybe wasn’t just rumours. Palmer took 15-20 mins to get going but then began...

Like that idea. Obvious to see the management see him as a AM / WF. Kelly / Eccles / Sheaf to compete for the CM positions. Think Robins will buy a CM Destroyer with the Gus money. O’Hare, Palmer and Sakamoto for the AM position.

Gus has a last minute change of heart (a la Stevie Gerrard to Chelsea) and can’t leave Cov. Stays. . Signs improved contract-in October. Takes Captaincy. You never know…….

Kelly was superb in those end of season games. Couldn't ask for much more from a deep lying central midfield player. Earned his contract for me.

We wondered how much of the Vik fee Robins would get...Ended up being almost all of it. I expect the same from the 15m for Hamer. Pretty sure Robins & Recruitment team would of known he probably wasn't going to sign the extension since June, so would expect they had a list of targets (as they...

Robins could break our Transfer Record with the replacement. Sure 8-10 million would get us a brilliant young box to box midfielder. Feel we should be looking in The Championship for that player. Not many teams could turn down 10 million for their best player, especially clubs with financial...

Absolutely no! Eccles is better than him. He's not creative, and not a box to box midfielder, more of a steady-eady and we have Sheaf and Eccles who play that role.
