I highly doubt Fadz will be in the first team for the whole season. He’s been a great servant and leader but we need to hand the reigns to someone else. I imagine our business will not be complete for the CB position.

How much it mean to you if Robins finally plays a back 4? Death, taxes and @shmmeee suggesting a lineup with 4 defenders are life’s certainties here.

If we sold Gyokeres for €24 million with one year left on his contract, what is a realistic market rate for a striker with that amount of goals? Assuming the upfront cost for Wright and Simms is £11.2m for 2 players that could get 20-30 goals between them, is that good business? Personally...

We’ve just sold Gyokeres for €24 million who had 21 goals with one year left on his contract. So signing a player with a similar amount of goals in a similar standard league for €9m doesn’t seem so bad. To call him a €2-3m player is an insult when even trasfermarkt of all places has his value as...

If we’re serious about getting to the Prem, then clearly we’re not going to get there on a 2-3 €2m punts. Case in point: Tom Bayliss v Maddison - both costing couple of million back in the day. One is an England intnational and the other is currently plying his trade at Shrewsbury. A full...

So a YouTube clip has informed your opinion? Say no more. Football fans tend to be idiots. If I was in charge of recruitment, I’d be shit too. There’s a reason clubs employ data analysts and full time scouts rather than ask the opinions of the proles who watch highlights and YouTube. We always...

Imagine being this negative about a potential record signing? Honestly, if Robins asked your opinion on who you’d sign - who would you recommend?

Most of us fans have limited - to put it politely - knowledge of football outside of the league their club plays in and the Prem/UCL. At best, a wider knowledge of the top 5 leagues. It’s why our threads on potential signings feature familiar names either opponents or ex-players/linked...

I doubt we would spend £10m or thereabouts if the intention is to not start of them. Wright seems to be able to carry the ball like Gyokeres could and Simms is more of a traditional finisher, for example. Godden is clearly not going to be a first choice if we spend millions strengthening our...

The club has clearly done a cost:benefit analysis on McNally and we probably don’t agree with Burnley’s evaluation compared to other targets we have. As for this striker, clearly we think he’s worth that money and can sell him for a healthy profit if needs be.

I imagine Robins has an idea of what resources he has left. We’re hoping 6-8 more signings or so?

Or, the people who’s job it is to scout and recruit players know what they’re doing. Let’s not forget that McNally was an unproven L1 CB this time last year.

It’s irrelevant. McNally doesn’t play LCB and if we want McNally permanently, and Burnley don’t want to sell, it’s the end of the discussion. Bobby Thomas or Binks may not be better players right now, but MR supposedly believes Thomas has a higher ceiling than McNally.

We probably don’t want to loan him again because it’s about time we bought our own players. It’s a hunch I have that there will be provisions to sign Binks on a permanent.

I don’t think that’s what caused you miss out. There was 50 tickets available and when I first went on the tickets nothing was available. Then, something came available all of a sudden meaning I probably benefitted from someone else’s session expiring.

How are people getting to this match? I’ve bought my ticket without a plan on how best to get to the game!

Ipswich always seem to be a team that are overhyped and because of that they’re a team that’s always irritated me.

He wants to go back the Holland, specifically Feyenoord ‘at some point’ which for some reason has been interpreted as right now. It’s so vague it could been now or 5-6 years when he’s older. If Hamer had the choice to go back to Feyenoord this summer or a Premiership team, I’d doubt he’d go...

Having both Bidwell and Da Silva is good for competition and options for MR. My first impression was that Bidwell was going to leave. Now, I don’t think there will be a clear first choice. Bidwell has a track record of getting assists and think he could link up well with Simms. He’s a player...

I’ve paid as a fully paying adult despite technically qualifying as a student. Are students still classed as concessions? I’m going to try and advertise my brothers’ and my own spare tickets where possible.
