    2 more players for this lineup

    MR says he wants 4 more in but only thinks 2 are realistic, then he has no other option but to look within his current squad to fill the gaps. If that's the case then a few will be thrown in and a few more will be found out until the solution is found. Either way I can't see MR holding on to...

    Jamie Allen

    I think we all seen the level being a step to far for him, but nobody can fault his effort or the part he has played in getting us to the championship. I don't see it getting easier for him or it helping the squad by holding onto him if he hasn't improved enough to get playing time. He is not...

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    Waghorn has always been part of a unit never a player who is a focal point of a team. He works endlessly to create pressure on defenders, I do think he is a better finisher than Baka and Max and has played at a higher level for a longer period of time than both. He is a good squad addition and...

    Pre Season 21/22 Thread

    Would expect to see Howley, Nee, Bapaga , Ngandu, Reid and the trialist if we still have him Saturday. Would be nice to see Jones get some time be another big step for him in his recovery.

    Bright

    Once bitten twice shy, I would be shocked if MR thought he would fit into this group. The signings so far 2 are players who are good experienced pro's that are known to be good within a changing room. As for Sheaf not the level of experience as the other 2 but is already apart of the group and...

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    I think Walsh and Paterson have been in talks but can see Swansea getting both. Next week I can see us announcing a few which will make is clearer the path MR is taking.

    What do we need now ?

    I understand and agree but stated him pushing which implies now, this is his chance to be compared and fight for his place. Last year it was decided a loan would benefit him. This preseason it may end in the same decision. I hope he gets a chance and shows his potential.

    What do we need now ?

    He has shown potential, but needs to step up at the level we are now as a club. If he is not pushing Rose, Hyam & Macfazden for a spot in a gameDay squad and that without any new additions a decision will be made. I hope he does well and gets a chance, it's a big pre season for players like him...

    What do we need now ?

    MR will be trying to get at least 4 out the door on permanent deals and 3 more more on loans agreements. He has players on the bubble who he needs to make decisions on the likes of Allen, Drysdale, Hillsner & Pask are in my opinion really on that edge of being shown the door if he has better...

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    Half a million with add ons for him sounds more realistic, but if it doesn't happen it won't be a disaster as MR will have alternative targets to act on. I can see 6 or 7 in and same out including loans. Its a massive few weeks for the club and MR. I just hope our players returning from...

    Vintage rumours

    Stuart Parnaby was at the club training with both parties trying to sort a contract. It didn't happen as we were miles apart on what we could/would pay and what he thought he was worth/wanted. He was offended by the offer apparently, obviously we wasn't locking gates or doors to stop him...

    Vintage rumours

    Big Ron, thought he had pulled a master stroke by signing the Czech international Radek Bejbl before Euro 96. Apparently all was agreed, but the player wanted to wait until after the tournament to sign. He was not that well known before but ended up playing every minute of every game reaching...

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    Yep, makes complete sense now. But I must of missed the interview Mbappe gave when he played for us, talking about a career in coaching and a desire to scout if coaching fell on it's arse.😂 Never mentioned it as a way of signing players, just one who wants to coach. And never said scouting...

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    I remarked about an incentive with coaching as part of a deal, this is purely an opinion on what he states in his interview. He hasn't got the qualifications at pro level to be a pro coach, which is why I wrote we will probably announce a coach within next two weeks, you must see I was not...

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    I would imagine next week things will get busier on the news front. I would not be surprised if MR already has had an answer from James, maybe a player/coach role would be attractive to him. He will be waiting on more talks with Paterson and will have to wait on decisions of club and player in...

    Brought on by winning, or by coaching?

    Good coaching is the key, everything stems from that point, keeping things simple and repeating a formula each day helps set the style and patterns of play. If this works and it brings results everything else falls into place. As for the club and this group, the togetherness is very obvious...

    Realistic signings

    I would not be shocked in seeing a few young players from top clubs coming in on loan. Our players look like they are getting some top level coaching in what looks like a very positive enviroment. You can see a team spirit and togetherness that comes from all buying into what is being asked on...

    This season's Shirt Sponsor

    I think the moaning is at every club, even those with all the wealth and all the glory, still have some that are not happy. This sponsorship deal sounds like it helps the club run and could help MR bring in a few players, if that is the case and we start winning all this will be a forgotten story.

    This season's Shirt Sponsor

    So i wont buy a kit due to a gambling sponsor? but ill buy clothes, trainers etc...i know that are made by companies using slave labour to make them.. Get a grip FFS, if you dont want to buy it, dont, but keep it to yourself and carry on believing your moral compass and stance for whatever...

    Baka

    MR has no other options right now and unless he brings in a few loans in the next few weeks Baka gets in the game day squads. Max is outside looking in and maybe being touted about to see if they can free his wages. Apart from Godden the others might as well be forgotten as they will not be in...
