    Transfer Shouts

    Harry Cornick Luton Joe Rothwell Blackburn Alfie Mawson or Hector Fulham Sawyers WBA Palmer Barnsley Risky but Nick Powell at Stoke he will not be getting a big contract due to past injuries. When fit a really good player who he as an eye for a goal. Names that I'm not saying we can, will or...

    Walker

    To improve the squad both he and Waghorn need to be moved on. The only problem with that is neither are performing to the level which attracts club to compete with current contracts they are on. They have the right to sit it out and take the money, It puts club in a bad position which will...

    Walker

    Walker is the type of player that will always divide opinion, no matter what club, style, coach or manager he plays for it's a running theme with him. I don't think he is lazy or lacks ability in front of goal, I think he is as a decent athlete who has a bit of pace. But this is where it stops...

    Whole squad. Who stays, who goes?

    This is a massive summer for the club, MR will have to work really hard and smart to improve on this seasons effort. To make it easier he needs to see improvement from the younger group to get the depth he needs to compete a the top end of this league. The group of Reid, Bapaga, Dananga...

    Walker

    Unfortunately we are stuck with Walker, Waghorn, Hilsner as all are on decent contracts and on current form and status not going to have clubs knocking our door down for them. Those combined wage will be between 15 and 20 grand a week, that will be wasted unless Walker decides he wants to step...

    This Summer

    It's going to be tough because MR wants a footballing CBs and I don't think he moves away from that. But results have shown us that sometimes you need to dig in, fight for the second ball and be willing to shout and organize players around you that are caught watching. It's an art and comes at...

    This Summer

    MR will see all the stats and I'm sure will address the weak points within the squad. The defensive unit seems to have some issues, individually they look ok but show inconsistency as a unit and as individuals. From what I've seen they lack organizations, vocal leadership and in someways the...

    Who and Why ?

    I think MR knows 1 has to go if we are to improve squad in its quality of depth. He has spoken about the way the club has to do it for a while now and seems ok with the process. It's hard watching a really good player go but if it allows 3 really good signings to come in, it certainly softens...

    Who and Why ?

    Yeah I got told the 9 to 10 mill mark. Same place I heard Vik is being touted at 8mill if any clubs come knocking. From that if both are sold MR will get a very good % to work with during the summer.

    Who and Why ?

    The fee is a clause in his contract that was put in the new deal he signed. The fee activated is big and will give MR room to improve the squad. Until he signed the new deal clubs were trying to pick up a bargain. Those clubs are not mentioned now as the fee is dictated by the clause.

    Who and Why ?

    Rangers was mentioned a London club and a northern team.

    Who and Why ?

    It's not reported, it's a little whisper going round. It may have no substance but clubs were named that were in. Let's see it's just what I was told but let's face it would be hardly be a shock if it comes right. He is the one most would see going and the one that would generate the highest fee.

    Who and Why ?

    Hamer will go 1st, at least 2 clubs have already matched the clubs valuation, and it's a big figure which could end up going higher as more will be interested. But let's see if that comes true and if it does I hope MR gets a big % of that fee to replace and improve the squad and facilities he...

    Waghorn

    That would be a good start to the summer for us, and realistically I think L1 is his level at this point of his career.

    This Summer

    I believe 1 if not 2 of the big 3 will gone come summer, Hamer is definitely creating interest with a valuation probably already met. If we can fight off interest in the other two then great, but I think the money offered will be very tempting for the owners and maybe too difficult for them to...

    This Summer

    MR in the past has signed and then extended the majority of his players in hope they can compete at the level we were at. Or hope he has time to improve an inexperienced individual to step up to another level. All this while maintaining the clubs budget, which has never been top end at any level...

    This Summer

    U23s. McGrath, Finnegan, Ngandu, Evans-Harriot and Drysdale. If Reid doesn't show up well in summer the exit door will hit his arse aswell. Players that are going to be hard to move on will be Waghorn, Walker, De Costa, Hilsner and Kelly as all on decent contracts and all will not make us...

    Jodi Jones

    Having Jones around next season doesn't really effect anything in the bigger picture for me. if fit he is a very capable player that adds depth to the squad, but thankfully this decision it's not up to me. MR will have to have answers before decisions are made on him. Firstly is he happy at...

    Notes from Supporters Forum

    Maybe it's normal but MR and the club don't seem to be on the same page. I understand the clubs position but FFS if any manager deserve full backing in the country it's MR and staff. The squad has improved on a shoe string and is punching above it's weight regards to depth and quality. We are...
