So, not looking to write the season off but thought it would be worthwhile casting an eye forward to the summer to think about what realistically we need to see to start building a proper squad. I’ve left out the U23 players so if any of them could step up that might prove handy, but by and...

I don’t think anyone is suggesting spending £2-3m on players. One solitary loan AM and I’d imagine most would be happy.

So we’ve got crowds surpassing what was initially budgeted. Record season ticket sales. Moved 7(?) off the wage bill, with Portsmouth taking on the lion’s share of Walker’s wage as one of the top earners. Yet all we could muster was Bidwell? Maybe they’re extending the fence all the way to Keresley.

Lol.

I quite like what I’ve seen of him, and Stoke spent £5m on him in the summer.

Surridge out the door at Stoke already, very odd.

You’d think so. Not expecting to see anything though.

Fucking dreamland. Have a word with yourself.

Yep, him and Foden bringing girls back to the hotel in Iceland and therefore breaking the Covid bubble.I do find it telling that Foden was straight back in but Greenwood has never been seen in an England shirt again.

What a prick. He’ll get sent down for that, and rightly so. Disgusting.

Loosely related to all of this but the petulance of players is hugely on the rise again. Kicking the ball away, blocking short free kicks (not just being there, but actively reaching to block it), etc. All annoys me. Get the cards out.

Try hard.

Saw it quoted online (so not overly reliable) that he’s on £5k per week. And it’s a two-way thing, his deal is up in the summer.

Looked like early on he was going a bit too direct. Had a stoppage in play and Viveash pulled him to one side, and we started playing a bit more.

Charly Musonda. Not entirely serious.

Since returning from his spell on the sidelines he’s looked phenomenal. Was a massive advocate of his signing last summer, but felt his early performances weren’t overly convincing. Delighted that we’re now seeing what he can really do, and imperative we get him on a permanent deal in the summer...

And that makes me think, is it worthwhile looking at another attacker and freeing Waghorn up to play in the 10 either alongside or as competition for O’Hare?

Puts the club in a very weak position so I’d get it if they’re trying to create a market.

18 months to go on Hamer’s contract, wouldn’t be averse to him moving on for a decent fee. £5m would be quite decent business, and could use £3m of it to get 2 more decent players.

Well I’d expect that given the last accounting period was when we were in exile and getting an average of 5k fans per week whilst paying a quite hefty rent, that would have had a considerable impact on our cash flow position in that year. Funnily enough, £1m sat at the bank as of the end of that...
