Every player is untested until they are tested. Robins has moved the likes of Andrews, Stretton, Obikwu & Eghosa into the first team squad because he thinks they are knocking on the door, he's not doing it just to be nice or for a laugh.

Think he answered pretty honestly, hoping to do one more but it's down to price. I think it's quite rare for an owner to be as candid as he is.

Think you're gonna be disappointed. I think 1 will come in but that's our lot

Clearly their finances are not as fucked as ours were 🤷‍♂️

Not really, they did state openly that he wasn't for sale.......

His stock has fallen very rapidly. Lincoln fans were absolutely creaming themselves when he signed. Carrying a knock maybe?

Presume he will just stay to pad out the 21s. With Obikwu and Stretton being around the first team he will probably be needed to fulfill our PDL fixture committments.

Thing is Da Silva won't have been completely free, he will have had a signing on fee and agents to pay etc. Likewise Bink's and Ayari will have commanded some sort of loan fee. Very difficult to guage what our actual spend has been.

Stretton and Obikwu both part of the first team squad.

1. Circumstances clearly changed during the course of that window and you can only deal with what's out in front of you 2. We have no idea what the original offer was from Blackburn, or what he finally went for, or anything that happened in-between.

Yeah....... All that extra cash will probably soften the blow a little though......

Behave.

£3-5 million. Unless someone exceptional suddenly becomes available

He's downplaying expectations in case it doesn't pan out. He will be after more and looking ahead to January too

Or the Reading lad. I know he's not the LCB we are after but lots of talk about us being in for him.

A proper B team league would be good.

He's played a couple of 21s games just recently. Think he was injured back end of last season. Surprised he hasn't moved on permanently to be honest

It makes a certain amount of sense if you get the player relatively cheaply, but the Archer deal looks like poor business for Sheff U.

It does seem that any genuine academy talents bypass the 23s and jump up to the first team (or more likely get poached whilst still a kid). Not sure what the answer is though.

Based on absolutely nothing I reckon 1 more in today/tomorrow and then another 12 on deadline today plus a surprise one the morning after cos the fax machine was playing up.
