You never know, but I'm pretty sure O'Hare will be leaving because a football career is short and doubling your money is a no brainer. That is why we have been buying players from League 1 and abroad increasing their salaries. That's one of the reasons why we lost out to Forest recently. MR has...

My son went on an exchange trip to Belgrade about 17 years ago. He stayed with a family. The dad said he couldn't understand why English clubs didn't buy Serbian players as they were brilliant and so cheap in those days.

There is a reason why Bidwell has been to three play off finals with Brentford, Swansea and Cov. Add in a semi-final in the FA Cup that should have been a final IMHO. JDS was brought in to compete with Bidwell. A rather dodgy rumour Bidwell was moving to Birmingham that apparently never got...

Nah, they would all be relegated.

No consolation for a terrible outcome for the family but, the driver will be caught. Cameras, forensics etc will get him or her. Needs to give themselves up now. The longer they leave it the longer the sentence.

Jose Mourinho rated Binks when he was younger and is one of the great managers when it comes to recognising talent and potential. Kitching was great in our run of games until near the end of the season. Kitching needs to improve his positional play and to stop getting sent off when it harms the...

The thing is with young defenders, providing the potential is there, the more they play together the better the defence should become. Of course this is all theory, but a consistent defence (if good enough) really helps. See Grahams Arsenal.

Would love Callum to sign. A gamble but with a bigger squad and more rest, I think we can get the best out of him especially as I don't think he has fully recovered from his injury problems yet. Been a brilliant player for us and if he can stay injury free can be a massive asset.

Depends on price and availability of other CBs. With Thomas and Kitching we have gone for players who are tough and can play a bit. Think McNally is similar. Burnley obviously rated him, as they wanted to keep him with another loan whilst they were happy to sell us Thomas. Burnley clearly...

McNally started to come good near the end for Stoke after looking poor in an under performing team. Stoke's new manager looked to have turned them around and I think they will do better next season. Will Burnley want to keep McNally? It will be interesting to see if Stoke bid for him, although...

Our grounds too small for us.

With existing players (Hadji, Palmer, Lati, JDS and Rodrigues plus the players we have been linked with, there could be quite a few away on international duty during the season. Some of them going on long haul flights. Not ideal.

We have a limit on wages which is why O'Hare will almost certainly leave. That also means we possibly can't get more experienced Championship players to join us, as they can earn a lot more elsewhere. The relegated clubs and those funded by deep pockets like Stoke and Hull can probably outbid us...

I see his dad is suing the FA for dementia problems caused by continually heading the ball. What is unusual is that he played his football using the modern balls, not the heavy leather lace up ones that did for a lot of the old timers. Appears the FA are in the dock for possibly deliberately...

Never been published anywhere, Godden has never aired this in public so lets see what happens.

Just read an article in the Times about how many defenders does a team need and still win a football match. Apparently the architects of the great Ajax teams decided three and Pep agrees with them. Perhaps that is why we appear to be chasing midfielders, although Stamenic has played as a...

Is this fact or speculation?

Hmmm. Quite a few people want Godden, Allen, Tavares and Wilson to move on. Wave a magic wand and we will get better players in. A lot of supporters think Godden has gone over the hill and his time with us is over. He was certainly a shadow of his former self in the second half of the season and...

Anther one out of left-field no one saw coming. An exciting buy I feel. As many have already said, we have a ready made song. Not sure the level of OZ footie but pace is always helpful.

Sad his career has been blighted by injuries, as he was going to be some player. Played really well against us for Swansea last season but we can't afford players who can stay consistently fit (well apart from Sheaf).
