A Scouts job is to provide a shortlist of players matching the attributes the manager / club have identified as being important to the proposed style of play. In bigger clubs the Sporting Director,Head of recruitment and the manager then discuss and agree the rank order of that shortlist. in...

We clearly have different expectations and experience levels which is fine. If you are suggesting that we have broken our transfer record and Robins hasn’t flown to watch Wright then you may be right but I would be hugely disappointed in Robins. He has a responsibility to ensure that the clubs...

A day off ? On the opening weekend of the season. Are you being serious ? I suspect Robins had the players in yesterday morning going through the approach to todays match and then chose a match with some relevance to go to in the afternoon . I doubt very much he did “the big shop” and then met...

If I were King and he didn’t watch an upcoming opponent or a transfer target in favour of meeting up with a mate I’d kick his arse. Robins has been backed for the first time in his tenure with us, I’m sure he’s not returned that commitment by not using a rare Saturday off in the window productively.

I’d be disappointed if he simply went to watch a mates team at this point in the season. Very unlike Robins I would suggest.

It was poorly worded I concede 😂. I was really asking which match is he at …..

Is Robins at a matching scouting a player or watching an upcoming opponent … I suspect he’s doing one of the other …

Nor should it. Even £8m would buy us 2-3 good players with potential …..

I think Luton and Sheff utd are both interested

Not very original though is it

I totally agree with this point. I think we lack creativity and imagination from set plays. I’m sure we must work on them but you would never know. It’s rare we do something that looks very choreographed.

Player of the season - Milan Best signing - Milan Disappointing signing - Da Silva Surprise performer - O Hare Top goalscorer - Simms Top assists - Milan Club final position - Average attendance over the season - 23,750 I have assumed Hamer is not a City player after this window.

Rumours such as these are par for the course during pre season. It doesn’t make them true.

We have a huge match on Sunday. I suspect the Media team have had to wait until Robins was available to do anything with him. He can’t really do the usual bland comment for a signing of this fee.

Leicester have been heavily linked with Chair. I would like Willock but I’ve not seen us linked with him anywhere but in this forum and I can’t remember who ever posted that rumour

I’m not sure how much game time another loan would get in our defence ….

I remember Robins being hugely complimentary about the physical attributes of the Stoke players when they whipped us at our place. We couldn’t get near their midfield. I wondered if we might go back in for one of their central midfielders if we lost Hamer.

Just spoke to a Turkish mad football fan. he says the big 2 Turkish clubs wanted Wright but couldn’t compete on the transfer fee. quick, direct, composed in front of goal. … getting better each season . To score aS many goals as Wright has in a bang average Turkish team is seen as very...

Normally agents and clubs are pretty aligned on these aspects before clubs start bidding …. The reverse of how it used to be !
