I thought I read somewhere that he was in discussions with one of his previous clubs, or maybe it was inferred in one of his social media posts. In which case we may have just released him from his contract. If we paid him off, I assume we could have done that at any time, the fact he has gone...

I guess if you sign 10 of these young players and 1 makes it big time it's worth it.

Wycombe. We have taken more points from them than any other team I suspect

Yes, it wasn't a criticism, the opposite. Although some have shown disappointment about the likelyhood of signing anyone, it makes sense to spend limited funds on securing our best players.

Can see now why we have no money for new players

It's a bit strange about Reid, got SPL experience, and although still very young, he is 20 in May. You would think he could get at least a few minutes on the pitch for the first team. Maybe he hasn't come up to expectations, but if he is on the bench, he should be good enough. I assume he got on...

You would think they should be able to score goals at home against a 10 man team currently 20th in League 2

A lot of the big names don't play their strongest team in the early rounds and don't attract big crowds. It's best to get an easier draw in round 4 and hope to get through, and get a big name in round 5.

All 6 appearances. As player/manager gave up his playing career, and then re-registered to play for Sunderland when we sacked him. P.S. Knowing you, it was a tongue-in-cheek suggestion

Could be

I accept that. My comment referred more to whether he would go in this window, with still around 1.5 years on his contract. O'Hare is with Wasserman agents I believe, I would be very surprised if they advised him to sign an extra 1 year contract if there was imminent interest in him.

Why would O'Hare sign an extended contract to make us more money? If he was on his way why would he want his new club to pay a bigger transfer fee, that's assuming that a player with a 2.5 year contract is worth more than one with a 1.5 year contract, which I doubt.

You would think something is going on. But none of our ITKs have reported anything as far as I know.

The other thing to consider is extra time if it's a draw. Am I correct in saying that the tie has to be decided today? 5 subs and the possibility of extra time may have been in MRs mind when it comes to who starts the game.

Wasn't Jodi isolating before Christmas due to contact with the U23s? He was on the bench against Millwall so had finished his isolation, and came on for a few minutes, but has hardly played or even possibly trained much in recent weeks. Others are in the same position, but may have been in MR's...

If Shipley gets a couple of goals, it will give MR something to think about

I hope none of the defence gets injured, only Reid on the bench

Stating the obvious, you need someone who can get goals this season. Your top scorer has 4, and a strike rate of 0.18 goals per 90. Your whole squad has only scored double what Godden has got this season. Try and find a goalscorer with a Championship record of 8 in 16 games or 0.7 goals per 90...
