I think he’s the hardest player we have to replace. Makes a huge difference to the side. But we need a whole new midfield anyway so can spread the quality around like we did up front when we lost Vik.

Seriously you wouldn’t swap Eccles for Hamer in our current team?

We sort of have two modes though. When we’re countering we can move the ball really quickly, but then get stuck in a loop of passing it around the back sometimes too. I wonder if only the former get counted as attacks or something.

No. Just crying over Gus there days. Really lacking edge of your seat players now aren’t we? :(

Just not been in the side. Norwich wanted to keep him around as a backup but I think he’s wanted out for a while because of no playing opportunities.

And if your “best” player is playing shit because hes off, he’s no longer your best player. Hope the summer is long enough for you to get over this. I remember Kevin Gallacher leaving when I was about 9, tough times.

Won the L2 golden boot. But 20 before Xmas and only 9 after. Apparently he wants to stay there until Notts are in L1. Seems like a decent bloke who has a job to do where he is.

Think the most important signings will be the older players this window. Got to say that really doesn’t excite me as a transfer list. All reasonable squad players but not going to move you up a level.

Fun to watch, spoiled his legacy here with switching off and generally believing his own hype a bit too much. Showed he can be unplayable, then just chose not to be, which grates. We need someone with a better end product there, comparing him to similar in other teams they all seem to have a...

Only because you’re basically Italian will I allow this. Don’t any of you other fuckers try and pull this off.

What’s he done?

No! You’re a victim of an evil capitalistic company.

Unless your theory is Doug doesn’t want promotion to save £500k…

What’s the con exactly? Yes it’s obviously a small gamble. But with inflation and the current trajectory of the team not a massive one worth getting upset about. Like previous owners I doubt King is taking any money out of the club. We’ve just spent £35m in fees alone FFS

Do they get bigger allocations or just sell out more consistently?

This is why we need to sell Sheaf. If we can upgrade our later targets cos of a Vik windfall then great but we shouldn’t be relying on it.

He’d been out the side for four games before his injury.

Close control isn’t taking a ball down, it’s like Dasilva has: the ability to be in a group of players and dribble your way through. Hamer would often spring us by getting stuck in or beating a couple of men up close then driving into the space behind them. Eccles is a very tidy player with a...

Quite liked their fans in a way, noisy when they got going and tried to banter, but some absolute cringey tinpot stuff as well. Bit like us I guess.

If it was definitely going to happen it would be a bit weird. It’s basically a £50 or whatever the difference was bet that we’ll go up and worst case probably mean you pay less in year 4/5 if we haven’t gone up.
