    Realistic signings

    All of which takes me back to the question I started with. No point in signing squad players as we already have a lot, and nobody seems to want to replace the ones most likely to struggle in the Chamionship. In which case there is no case for new signings.....but we seem to want new signings.

    Realistic signings

    in which case why are people clamouring for a CDM? It can't be Hamer to go, sothat leaves Kelly.

    Blog Do City need to strengthen their attacking options?

    Basically, yes.to this but I would keep one of Baka and Max, probably Baka as he is more versatile.

    Realistic signings

    My problem with all the transfer speculation is that we seem to be assuming a team of 14 players. There are gaps - CDM and striker for instance - but nobody seems to want to drop players who were succcesful in L.1. Also we have quite a big squad, so actually have a number of fill ins in case of...

    Realistic signings

    You need at least two loans - they provide skills that are not readily available at a price we can afford. No @Hare & Walsh = no promotion. But conversely players of their ability are ten a penny to the Premiership clubs. Supply and demand. Only Dabo could compete with our two loans for speed...

    Transfer Rumour Ben Sheaf

    thst is well beyond our budget for a squad / back up player. It's more than we paid for Godden, and strikers attract a premium

    Transfer Rumour Ben Sheaf

    Assuming Kelly and Hamer are the first choices in central midfield, the query is obvious. Why spend a lot on a man who is likley to be a squad player? For choice I would prefer a loan as back-up to Kelly and Hamer. The wolves guy is a better option. This comment guarrantees that Sheaf will...

    Power and Pace

    Is it a team in Robins' likeness? I remember thinking how small we looked against Luton a couple of seasons ago. There is a chance we could get bullied by some of the cruder teams, but at Championship level it is more likely to be speed and skill, so I would not go hunting for Dele Adebola...

    Boddy Update

    We will need to sell every season, regardless. That is the whole model. Brentford, who have the same model, are probably going to have to sell their best player, despite finishing 3rd. We just have to get our heads round it as being a permanent way of life. Every new player has to be...

    Wasps Statement

    Championship - league 1 yo yo club sounds not While a little too enthusiastic about SISU, this is correct imho. It looks like relegation to L2 came as a bit of a shock to them but fortunately coincided with finally finding a manager who could deliver. That enabled them to keep the club on an...

    All time average attendances

    If I put in the word "marginal" the point is completely true. The extra marginal costs of building (and maintaining) space for an extra 6k. We are delusional about the crowds City are likely to attract on a regular basis. If we sell out periodically I doubt if the owners will mind. As the table...
