    The poor kid was distraught I hear it's a problem with his groin He's only just come back from long term injury

    Scores on the doors

    It's more soreness than an injury. He had to take a few hard challenges and had his achilles raked early in the first half. It's men's football which all young players must learn

    Scores on the doors

    Jones was not so much carrying an injury as feeling the effects of missing the last 3 weeks of pre season. We've had 3 games in 8 days the middle of which went to extra time. The team is very young and learning the game so need a few more old heads around them. McCann is available from the next...

    Vincelot joins Bradford

    It seems that the move was orchestrated by Vincelot's representatives I suppose TM could have refused the offer and made him stay but it's normally better to let players move in such circumstances i I guess especially with only a year left on the contract. Sad for us but it's the way football is...

    Jodi jones injury

    Apparently Jodi felt his hamstring tighten as he warmed up on The management decided not to risk him in a friendly on a very hard pitch in hot conditions From what I hear it's a little better this morning but I guess he'll be having some physio Better safe than sorry

    German Winger on Trial

    From what I heard he was a really good kid but didn't stand out or pull up trees in the training sessions prior to the game I'd guess the staff and players already had a good idea of his capabilities even before his brief appearance yesterday The club lost nothing by giving the lad a chance -...

    Sturm Graz Match Thread

    Actually with nothing better to do I just checked the Sturm Graz site and all but one of the team they started with against us today are from their first team squad. I only watched the first half but they looked decent and didn't give the ball away much

    Signing Number 3!

    Quite often a player in Bigi's position in the last year of his contract at a higher level club is paid off so he can move to somewhere he will get game time. I believe Joe Cole had a similar experience My guess is that if Bigi comes he will be on a modest wage with extra payments if he plays A...

    Reda Johnson

    Extremely unlikely that a Championship club will sign an injured player with his record of games missed. Guess that's why he's still here

    Club vote in favour of the new EFL trophy setup

    Even the best Premier League U21 teams only have perhaps 2 or 3 players per team who will go on to play regularly at Premier League level. The rest will play FL level or in many cases go out of football altogether when their initial PL or Academy contract isn't renewed There is a huge gulf...

    Venus put player negotiations on hold due to Mowbray speculation

    TM was away on holiday A cynic might say that TM's name was only ever in the betting to keep the odds down for those betting on Alan Stubbs
