If it'd been me I could have replied "actually, yes I did know him!"
Used to bump into him in Tesco cannon park quite often when I was a small kid. I was quite overawed but he was always lovely and chatted to loads of people.
If we do get that £5-£8m (will is just about possible) the next issue is whether Sheaf would want to accept going to the team offering that. Last year he supposedly wasn't interested in talking to Luton (smart move in the end) and I can't see a Prem team coming in for him.
That doesn't leave...
Trouble is I think the options of how he could go to will be severely limited and the price much lower than we'd normally want/expect.
Supposedly last year he only attracted interest from Southampton and Luton, and this year he's been injured a lot and not exactly dominating games when he has...
It's the kind of thing you'd be researching as part of a scouting report. A keeper will likely be weaker diving to one side that the other, most likely the left or whichever is their weaker arm. If I were a striker it's definitely something I'd want to know.
So wouldn't surprise me if they are...
There are way more reasons we lost than that.
Part it being they played a low block and we just passed it around in their half while creating nothing. Which has been a feature for us all season. We still don't seem to have worked out we need to try something different in those circumstances.

Lati Binks Kitching
MvE Grimes Sheaf Dasilva

Simms Wright
Assuming Thomas still not fit.
Grimes will likely sit deep enough to make it 4CB's anyway, which should mean we can cover the spaces behind the wingbacks which Luton would almost certainly try to exploit.
Does mean we...
I did find myself thinking last night whether it would be best if Collins were to pick up a minor injury in training, but enough to keep him out of contention.
Both he and FL can save face on him not being in the team but we also get to change the GK.
Not proud of thinking that and we should...
Indeed.
It's like picking a winger based primarily on his ability to help out the full back. Sure, it's something you'd like them to do, and if possible be good at, but if they can't run with a ball, cross or shoot then it's pointless.
