    The spine

    Our PPG without Kelly was below Wycombe’s so we definitely need a strong CM option there in his absence. I like Sheaf and Hamer individually but think they both need a good leader lining up next to them. I’m liking our attacking options, the one area we’ve definitely improved on. Walker and...

    Ticket prices

    Every year, our fans have moaned about ticket prices and every year our season ticket prices are some of the best value in our league. There’s also inflation to consider too - it has a small impact.

    Goes to show how much you know about rugby. If it’s not your cup of tea, fair enough. Australia, New Zealand and South Africa get to play this tour once every 12 years - it’s a special honour for both teams involved.

    Transfer Rumour Rocky Bushiri

    I didn’t get that vibe, sounds like we’re taking a look at him. Reading between the lines, if were to sign him on loan it would be a similar to Sheaf’s deal. If this player is 21, doesn’t really look like getting anywhere near getting into Norwich’s squad... they’ll be looking to offload him...

    Transfer Rumour Rocky Bushiri

    Not necessarily, we had 6 loans at its peak last season. Realistically, we were always going to have at least 2 loan players, and ideally you want loanees to be starting quality. Recruitment undoubtedly has been difficult this off-season but I’m fairly confident we’ve done alright.

    Transfer Rumour Rocky Bushiri

    Reading that, it does sound like his ‘long term target’ would be Osti. It also reads like Brighton want him to sign a long term deal before loaning him out. The Athletic reporter for BHA seemed to think that was our ‘most likely outcome’ if we were to sign Osti. From MR’s comments he views...

    If it makes anyone feel better, Man U lost 4-2 to QPR today. Didn’t do much against Derby either. Just another reminder to everyone not to worry too much about preseason and we don’t need two XIs as good as one another.

    He got McGoldrick scoring for us too. With the exception of Callum Wilson (whom he probably would’ve released had he stayed), he’s managed all our best strikers in the 2010s. ‘Not a strong track record’

    If it’s 3 signings, I’d guess a LWB, CB and a CM. As for the 4th signing, at a guess, I could see us signing either a CAM or a more experienced centre back to eventually replace McFadz. Long term, we need to move on from Kelly and McFadz despite them being instrumental last season. There’s a...

    Yes, it’s been reported we’re signing 3 more players and two of which will be loans. Robins says he wants 4 new signings.

    We probably won’t sign two left wing backs.

    We have 3, maybe 4 (max), signings left and you’d spend 2 of those on LWBs? Don’t quit your day job.

    We’ve been linked to Walsh and James and our good friend @better days has confirmed we looked at these two players. Therefore, we’re definitely looking to strengthen that area but, we haven’t signed anyone in that position, yet. It’s area of the pitch we absolutely need more experience in...

    Decent player, ended the season well and I’m hoping he has a breakout year. Robins will be mindful that he’s inexperienced so it’s best to not have to rely on a player like that. There’s a reason our win % was significantly higher with Kelly in the team and it’s not because he’s our most...

    With Kelly injured, we’ve got Sheaf and Hamer to play in central midfield... who else have we got? Seen a few comments saying we need a LWB and 2 CBs. One too many CBs as our options aren’t that bad at all. However, losing James and Kelly (to injury), Robins will almost definitely be targeting...

    We’ve only got 3 first team strikers in the squad today, so we’re not going to play 2 strikers for the whole 90m because the personnel isn’t there. Besides, the box worked a few times last season. I prefer COH playing in a 10 role behind two strikers and reckon that’ll be our first choice of...

    Shipley started the second game v MKD. If anyone has bothered to check that XI, it was basically our U23s and a few fringe players. The only exception being Gyo, who I doubt will be a starter when the season starts on Day 1. Anyone can see we haven’t started our full strength team because of...

    He wasn’t a starter last season so what makes you think he will be this season?

    Preseason doesn’t really mean anything other than build tactical familiarity, to build match fitness and to look at some personnel.

    That Bushiri looks like a decent player to bring in. At 21, I’m sure there’ll be a lot of upside and relatively low risk. Hopefully we can sign on a permanent basis.
