MR will have to wheel and deal whichever way we look at it. The question is can he get a couple in before he has to work on a 1 out 1 in basis. I don't think Shipley, Pask, Drysdale or Jones were in top money but combined could be as much as 10 grand a week. We collected fees for 2 of them which...

Some big decisions to be made on current squad members that im sure will have an impact on incomings this summer. While all will be evaluated on the fitness aspects of things, we have 6 that will be watched very closely soon as a ball comes out. These will be evaluated with a different question...

It will be pages on a player who is not ours including updates on appearances, form and injuries for months to come. We seem to have obsessions with ex players, we need to let it go, energy in the squad will not be spent talking about players not there. MR and staff will be working with those...

Every transfer is different, but in this case i would guess money was the key factor. He would of gone to east bum f*** if they offered the money he wanted. By the way i don't blame him either,

We have come a long way in a short time and still have players that were truly signed to get us into the championship. Some have got better, others have shown they are not out of their depth in this division. A few we have passed by and have had to leave behind while others have not worked out...

Smart by him and his agent to use our offer to get what he wanted. And if money is the most important factor in his decision, then im glad he got it and even happier he signed elsewhere. Nice player, but not the next Franco Baresi is he. We will find other players and hopefully ones who would...

Dont be if you remember this time last year we talked about having a squad not good enough to stay in the league. Trust in the process MR will improve us again. Few good weeks left yet before a ball is kicked.

I can see a few negative days coming our way, but its not new to us as a club. In fact its normally before a ball has been kicked or a season started. MR knows his options and will move on to focus his energy in making the squad better and ready.

His agent will be all over the map with him, he knows what's on the table with us and will be doing his job to get more for his client. If i was MR id be letting that agent know our offer has a time limit as we need an answer. I understand its the way this business works for agents and players...

I bet the club are working hard to get some of the bottom of the squad out the door than anything else at the minute. I think MR has a couple of players he has spoken to and offered deals, if those are signed im sure the wages would fit into the budget as of now. The hard part comes when the...

I can see quite a bit of movement next week, im sure MR will want to have a few deals done in both directions before the return of the players on the 30th. The quicker he can evaluate each player and department the easier it will be to find solutions where its needed. Be interesting to see how...

Like me , most will not of seen him play, so to judge him is difficult. What i have seen from the clips you find is he looks a decent ball player as well as an athlete. He will challenge Allen, Sheaf and Kelly for a starting spot and i would say he is going to be an improvement on what we have...

That rumor about Estrada could have wheels...

I get from MR remarks that we have players agreed in principal and others we are waiting on answers from. These will already been offered deals and already factored into next seasons budget. Obviously, if those deals come off and he still wants more signings, he will have to look at the current...

They were mentioned Leeds was another.

I think the Hamer deal is going to drop that was posted on here a few weeks ago. If correct its a big fee and gives MR a good return from it to replace and add. I would not put much on waiting for it to happen to sign others. That could be a good thing as it could show the level of the players...

MR will not care about the fee until it hits a figure he knows is good enough to be able to replace and potentially add quality to the squad. Comparing other transfers is pointless as each situation is different, some clubs have to sell, some players force a move, some clubs have a figure in...

I cant see MR falling for another player signed with a history of injury and attitude, especially when its a tight budget with every penny counting. All transfers are a risk but this one with Brown is too much of one for me. Palmer i can understand, Tino i would like, Rudoni makes sense and...

I have no knowledge on this and maybe im miles off, but i think DL has a bigger influence and is making a bigger impact on this squad than most think. I don't get the impression he takes shit or takes a drop in standard, we have seen an improvement in the standard of play. So Its no coincidence...

I have heard he upset a few and doesn't fit in, seems to be an outspoken sort of lad with a lot of confidence in himself and his own ability. I think that is fine, if it's channeled in the right way and used as part of group thinking. But by the sounds of it he may not be using it in this way...
