The alternative is that we get Godden to grow his quiff and superglue it firm for match days.

We have a variety of players that can play poacher or pressing striker / workhorse / nippy striker. I think we lack a stand in target man. There’s little point in having players like Gus who can deliver a quality ball high if we can’t nod the odd one in. We have onrushing midfield of Gus...

Dion Dublin. Tell me I’m wrong.

Let me put this another way, for the hard of thinking like yourself: Who have we got that can get on the end of a high cross from open play (that means not CD’s from corners and free kicks)? Go…

I think Bidwell will be the first starter with the notion of Panzo coming in off the bench to use pace and a bit of trickery against tired legs. That all said, I can’t help but think that JCS and Maatsen we’re good players and we haven’t improved on them last season to this. Fadz is a year...

He’s signed for their equivalent of our u23s. I suggested we take a punt since the only other forward options in the squad beside Vic tend to follow Snow White around. Hope we haven’t missed out on a local lad under our nose.

They signed Sorba Thomas from non league last year. How did that go? Sometimes you take a punt on a free transfer, regardless of what forum gobblers say.

Rangers and Celtic get big gates and merchandise revenue, the chance / guarantee almost of European football and fervent fans, hence they can attract some good talent by paying decent wages etc. Outside of those, the league is poor so It may be that their talented players aren’t regularly in...

Juggy’s off to Huddersfield, no?

He was probably in the stand 🤷🏻‍♂️

It’s a twist of history - we could have had Clough as manager (who would have probably, well more than probably signed Francis, we clearly had the money) and who knows. Life is a series of fine margin calls.

The difference between this squad and our last Championship squad before we were relegated is, to me, the togetherness and the fact the majority play for each other. Walker looks like he can’t be arsed and Waghorn has ping-ponged between trying too hard and giving up. It’s the Andy Morrell /...

Thought Sheaf dithered a lot and gave the ball away too often; that if he sorted that he’d be a decent player. He sorted it, he’s a decent player.

Yep, agreed. I’d rather have a younger, cheaper (I’d wager), taller striker in Collins than Waghorn who has so far looked totally not arsed. I have this weird notion that a Cov supporter might just throw their head in a melee in the 90th minute if it meant something. If Waghorn could go to...

I don’t know. A young Prem striker who their club desperately needs to get real matches into might come for really low wage contributions.

My shout: Fast tricky LWB like Maatsen or McCallum or similar. Back up centre back in the Fadz mould. Couple of big / strong strikers. One young, maybe one cheap oldie. Waghorn btw was an expensive oldie. Given that Collins’s stock is no doubt low, where’s he going to end up? L1/L2 on...

Finally someone gets the obvious

3 years ago he was 18. Arguably better to play lower league mens football than academy. Some might argue.

Given their predicament (and he being out of contact and local), Hudlin to Blues isn’t that far fetched.

SBT said: What’s happened with Hudlin’s move to Huddersfield that you announced? Do you think we could gazump them if we manage to sell Gyokeres and O’Hare before they get it over the line? That’s a shame for him. All I’ve ever said is that he’s with looking at for the u23’s for development...
