    Tyler Walker deal done???

    We might not have improved the overall quality but we have replaced key loan players with permanent signings and thus far kept hold of prospects like Bayliss. I don't think that's bad going given our predicament

    Bright Enobakhare

    Didn't he play a substantial number of games for Wolves in the Championship? Why are we now suddenly of the opinion he wouldn't get game time with a champ team? It's time to let this go, would have been nice to have him but I've no doubt Robins will have other ideas.

    Transfer Rumour Bids for Chaplin

    Little point in arguing about whether it's good business or not. As a club we haven't been in a position to turn down (reasonable) bids for any of our players for a long time. As soon as Barnsley made it clear they wanted him he was always going to go. It's frustrating but that's the reality

    Transfer Rumour Bids for Chaplin

    Just a thought, but do Barnsley have anyone we might be interested in? Just putting 2&2 together given Robins comments around not selling Chaplin unless a replacement was lined up.

    Bolton away

    Apart from Salford, yes. FC United apparently struggling

    Bolton away

    My best mate is a Geordie and was having exactly the same argument with him. He couldn't see that in the grand scheme of things they are still doing pretty well, any number of clubs would kill to be in their position.

    Saturday's Game - Behind closed doors

    It will be just a workout. Probably a Premier league side wanting to give their players a physical test against lower league opposition.

    So where are they now?

    In fairness he looked alright when he first arrived, just faded badly. Incidentally, Hussey is also at Cheltenham.

    It't not just the parachute payments, relegated teams get a 1 season grace period before they have to comply with the FFP rules for the division so last year Sunderland didn't have to comply with the wages cap (x% of turnover) but this season they will.

    So where are they now?

    Clarke was amazing by comparison to Horrordale. How we ever recouped a fee for him I shall never know.

    Addai

    Weird that Addai retweeted it but hasn't tweeted anything about going out on loan?

    So where are they now?

    Jordan Clarke is still playing for Scunthorpe as far as I know. Aaron Phillips and Billy Daniels are both at Kidderminster. Connor Thomas is at Cheltenham.

    Glenn Middleton

    Yeah was just reading that, sounds like it might be quite nasty. Now makes more sense that we might be looking to bring in some loan cover.

    Jordan Willis

    I don't disagree, i just think hes no longer our player so i'm not really fussed where he goes.

    Jordan Willis

    Think it was made fairly clear that the contract offer was no longer on the table

    Jordan Willis

    Ideally yes, but things change rapidly in football. It appeared nailed on that he was going to Luton but for whatever reason that didn't happen. His agent will have been whispering in his ear too.

    Jordan Willis

    He might not have the choice? Clearly has had contact with championship teams but if a contract hasn't materialised he has to play somewhere.

    Jordan Willis

    Don't really care now that his contract with us has expired. He's a free agent, where ever he ends up now is his own business. Would be different if he was under contract but he isn't so time to move on.

    Glenn Middleton

    Surely if that was the case we'd just change formation and play Shipley in a midfield 3? Given how skinny we are at right back and potentially needing reinforcements up top i just don't see another winger as a priority. That said, it doesn't look as though we will need lots of loans this season...
