yep seems a good lad but not up to the champ on last season’s evidence

I don’t think I’m country over club per se, but during major tournaments I feel myself wanting England to win even more than Cov. I think it’s something about the jeopardy, a major tournament could end at any time and they don’t come around often. If Cov lose then we go again next week. It’s...

Assuming we'll have favourable terms on this deal, I'd say it's worth the risk

Tricky one with Gus - only two years left on his deal so the club will feel under pressure to cash in. £4m seems a poor deal for us though (yes we only paid £1.3m and he had a bad end to the season), would be disappointed if he went for that. A good season next year, bit more money in the...

Why is everyone against this, be a tidy signing I reckon. 20 goals for a side that finished 19th and available on a free..

Ha maybe, although your team has just massively underperformed based on this logic, so how many clubs are in for these players? And you’ve bloated your wage bill with these underachievers.

Leeds had this situation with Augustin - their 'obligation' to buy was dependent on them being promoted, which they were. However they wriggled out of it on a technicality of the contract stating 'promoted by June 30th', and of course they weren't due to the Covid break. Imagine our survival...

Reckon it would be James or Walsh? Rather than both...

Your reaction (and others) seems to be a tad OTT and reactionary to people on FB though. I don’t think I’ve gone over the top in admiration and I don’t think I’ve seen anyone else on here say anything too ridiculous. I agree with him being released but that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate what...

Yeah I do get it, but you can’t try and argue against what makes a player a fans favourite, it’s not as easy as pointing out the tangibles. Look at someone like Scott Parker - won the football writers player of the year through giving 100% and being likeable (good player too, but not that good).

I’d argue Shipley could be - doesn’t endear on the pitch in the way a Biamou type does, also Shipley been largely absent this season.

Yeah tbf, Hyam played more than I remember.

Sorry yeah edited to include Shipley. Don’t think Hyam really played did he?

I think you’re misunderstanding my use of ‘great’, and also suggesting I’m saying he’s as good at Hutchinson, which I’m not. You have to think about the context. We signed him as a back up striker when we were in League 2. Aside from Kelly and Shipley, he’s the only player who has regularly...

Great player for us, should be remembered fondly for his contribution. He did better than I expected this season and at one point he looked like he was really getting going, but missed a few big chances at key moments , and I think that was Robins’ mind made up. Don’t understand the slandering...

Eisa definitely no better than Godden or Walker. If we're going to sign a striker we need someone who's a physical presence and can link play (assuming Biamou is off)

Yeah, I’m sure Keogh made some bad decisions that night, but Derby hung him out to dry in a callous, stupid and obviously cynical fashion.

Going to Preston

Tough one with Gus - don’t think he can get more than a few million on the basis that he ended the season poorly and subsequently the stats aren’t that compelling. Plus he’s only got two more years left on his contract. If we had three years, I’d say let him perform this season and prove he’s...

Next season could be a more competitive division. Hull and Posh look better set than Wycombe and Rotherham, and no one has had the points deduction, albeit that could happen. I’d be fine with staying around where we are now - upper bottom half. All you want is to show signs of progress and...
