Fantastic news about Bidwell. Our best lb and probably defender by a mile. Just need a capable understudy now.

We’re very thorough arent we. Putting someone through a medical so that they can join in training.

Just an extra body.

By and large the players scouted and bought have been ok. We suffered because all of a sudden Robins had options in forward positions and as the pressure wound up, rather than trusting what he felt was his best line up, he started rotating to the point of unsettling it all

Firstly we have no idea what promises he’s been made. And anyone who attempts a reorganisation in January is on a hiding to nothing. Not to mention we haven’t got much headroom in terms of squad numbers. It’s obvious negotiations on outgoings are taking place. Until that happens whether it be in...

Crikey we’re getting wound into a ball of angst about this window. January is always a damp squib. Not sure why we expect anything of significance.

He’d be a good five a side player.

My point exactly really. We’re willing to wait over half a season for Simms to break out of a trot but we’ve jumped all over BTA.

No, not worried at all. Nailed on lower to mid table this year. I’d rather take time to get the right ones in. Allen has been a bonus, Kitching and Dovin give us more solidity and then we’ll get Emc and Wright back in. A couple look like they’ll go and one or two in is fine

The squad is terribly balanced following the summer. BTA is a decent and proven cf who looks like he’ll have to go to balance things up. He’ll get goals elsewhere but we probably need more in other areas.

Take your point but Wright will play left. Simms looks pretty disinterested to me and Bassette is a prospect who is deemed better than BTA because he winds the opposition up. I’d take the sale to help the squad but I think the assessment of him is unfair.

Seems to be a lot of panic in this window. It’s early days window wise. Still plenty of time.

Truly bizarre the way we write people off. If we just take centre forwards can you imagine if we’d had the same attitude to just some of these slow starters: Gibson, Regis, Rosario, McNulty, Wright etc etc

Thomas-Asante hasn’t had a run of games either. Simms holds up play?? We must be watching different games. Normally if the ball is played into him it cannons back off him 30 feet. I agree he’s our best centre forward. But we seem keen to condemn BTA when you could reasonably apply all the...

Thomas-Asante hasn’t really had a fair crack of the whip at CF. At this point I might be tempted to cash in but King doesn’t even remotely strike me as someone willing to sell a player for less than he bought him within 7-8 months. The key to it is Simms. He obviously has ability but if he’s not...

We speak with authority about vegan fayre. You want a mixed bean daal we’ve got one to spare.

Really odd the way some want BTA out. I suppose it must be because we have Simms and Bassette literally losing count if their goal tallies.

We paid a couple of million for Torp. That puts Eccles at at least double that. Don’t see the problem some have with Eccles. Perfectly good championship midfielder. I’d guess there’s not a lot of difference between him and say Browne. It’s just that we haven’t signed him and he’s come through...

Worse. Neither can pass but at least Thomas passes it badly in a more stylish way

No, they would probably just do the sensible thing and not play.
