    Championship thread 23/24

    That is interesting. Fear these three are fairly strong by usual standards. Southampton and Leicester had a long stretch in the Prem, and Leeds are Leeds, despite being a bit of a mess, still have a very able squad.

    Transfer Rumour Dylan Vente

    Have a friend who is a Dutch football analyst at a football data/stats company. Positively he said; - Only good thing about Roda this season, nearly got them play offs single handedly - great finisher, extremely clinical However he also said; - Seemingly better strikers have left that league...

    Match Thread MK Dons (A) 25th July

    He’ll go inside and keep them guessing, hard to defend against agile players with low centre of gravity

    Transfer Rumour Cameron Archer

    Well I think that’s probably wrong. There’s only him and Watkins who are recognised strikers. They’ve got conference league football too, so plenty of games. Unless they want to sell and need the cash for FFP.

    Transfer Rumour Cameron Archer

    Villa will keep him, he’ll get plenty of game time

    Transfer targets

    Jesus, an overhaul. They’re not players, just some young lads, who are probably grossly underpaid. Could do with someone with more experience helping them perhaps, and more investment.

    Hamer

    Yeah might be right. I’m sure that market is also dictated by the volume of fans just backing their own team too, so bookmaker reducing liability.

    Hamer

    Yeah if we’re looking at offers of £6-7m at most, perhaps the club are taking a view that it’s worth keeping hold of him, and seeing where we end up this season. If we do keep him and we sign a couple more quality permanents and then get 3-4 exciting loans in, we could be right up there. Would...

    He was playing end of last season too. Think De Zerbi will want him there

    Hamer

    Got to remember the money can be spent over the next 2-3 summers and give us the best chance at going up in one of those seasons. Who knows what will happen but the money we’ll have available, combined a low wage budget will place us in a unique position in this league.

    2023-24 Media Season Prediction & Preview Thread

    Don’t see Boro in the top two, they’ll finish 4-6th. Ramsey, Archer, Steffan, Giles big losses. Leeds will push top two, their back up players are good championship players (Gelhardt, Cresswell, Drameh). Add to that a fair few quality players and a good manager. Disorganised off the pitch, but...

    Hamer

    If we do lose Hamer, we probably need to relook at this season, and temper expectations. Year in transition, hope that Leicester, Soton, Leeds go up (minimise the number of clubs with parachute payments) and then Forest, Luton and Sheff Utd come down. We should have flexibility to spend big...

    Hamer

    If we can get McNally and then £10-12m on top, that would soften the loss. Not sure we will, but we'll see.

    2023-24 New Kit Thread

    I think it's more than they've teased it all this week, and then the actual release is a bit meh, no real photos of the shirt, just a CGI.

    2023-24 New Kit Thread

    Like the shirt but the release is odd. Image looks pretty ropey, evidently not had time to get any photos done. Where is Gussy's new 2 year deal also? :cry:

    Transfer Rumour Chris Willock

    If he's available for £3m then we'd be daft not to go for him.

    Transfer Rumour Chris Willock

    Bloody hell - that would be an absolutely class signing. One of the best about in the championship

    Gyokeres

    It's bollocks opinion to say we're not spending money. We are, and we have all been surprised at how much. The squad build has to be a 2 year plan - so we'll need money for future windows and hopefully not have to be in a position where we need sell our best players throughout that time.

    Hamer

    I’d be gutted if we lost Hamer. We’re in a stronger negotiating position for selling Gyokeres though, so we’d surely get a good few if we do.
