Quite happy with this signing. Perhaps need a 4th striker to be 6ft plus to give us another option though. I'm not sure there will be an obvious 1st/ 2nd/ 3rd choice scenario and that MR will chop and change his forward options from game to game, as he did at the end of last season when he...

Based on when he joined Bournemouth 5 years ago :)

I imagine that's not the easiest thing to police, and administering it could prove financially unviable. At the end of the day ifollow was brought in to bring in further income streams to EFL clubs, so it has to pay at the end of the day. If you can't get to games why dont you just set up a vpn...

Now watch them go out & bring in a load of PL loans!!

He is one of our players from last season that I expect to really step forward for the experience. If we had signed a player with the same profile as his at Arsenal, but who had spent last season on loan at another Championship club most of our fans would be frothing with excitement at the signing!!

Looks like his agents are working hard for him.

But you haven't seen his video clips yet!!

Pace isn't everything - McFadzean has been a good example for him in how to adapt your game so that the weakness doesn't become critical. Drysdale's strengths are his comfort on the ball and the ability to see and execute a pass, which gives him the potential to be successful at our level. This...

This pre season is like no other before so no point really comparing previous seasons given the financial circumstances brought about by Covid. Most Championship clubs will not want to spend big on wages, while players & their agents will obviously still try to get as much as they can. That...

It's amazing how clearly people's prejudices shine through on here. If people read beyond the 1st sentence they might see that I was actually critical of Shipley and his performances last season! The one thing he has always had though is a sweet left foot, which I would have thought even you...

Disagree that Shipley doesn't have ability. He has as good a left foot as you'll find in the Championship, but unfortunately last season that wasn't enough to compensate for a lack of fitness, strength and confidence, which apart from a couple of instances led to him having a very disappointing...

Did you not see how we played when the St Andrews pitch cut up last season? Playing out from the back became difficult and we had to adapt to a more direct style, where Biamou was then used as a target man. I have little doubt that as next season progresses our pitch will also have its problems...

You didn't read Samo's post to which I was replying then where he was bemoaning the fact that we are the 'only' club doing this. Incidentally most of the signings made by the others are dross. I would rather we sign the right players than just getting people in for the sake of it.

Are we the only club doing this? Remind me who Blackburn, Bournemouth, Derby, Fulham, Forest, Reading, Sheff Utd and West Brom have signed?

Nick was always desperate for him to play :)

If we had been in the market for wingers he is one I would have liked us to have shown interest in. Still very few players signed by other Championship clubs that I would have liked us to sign though.

Shrewsbury Town :)

Pretty sure it was McAllister's debut too!

Remember the last time we played Forest first game of the season - was a bit of a disaster 😧

I view myself as having a 'glass half empty' view of CCFC, probably as a means of coping with the many disappointments that usually come with supporting a football club, but you're taking it to a whole new level. In respect of Badlan, I would point out that the majority of signings made by all...
