    The Shipley Bid

    Seems strange BD, especially when we were reportedly having cashflow issues last month? Do you think that we'll activate his one year extension (I think he has one correct me if i'm wrong) and then try to sell again in the summer when clubs have more capital to spend? Seems a bit of a risky...

    Jamie Allen signs new Contract

    Not sure. I personally think those two would probably be the best he could get. He's still far too raw and inconsistent in front of goal for a PL move and Burnley and Norwich would be the two in the Championship (presuming they go down of course) that would most likely be able to afford the fee...

    Jamie Allen signs new Contract

    Hmm I see what you're saying Herts, but I think if the club received significant bids for him in the summer I'd wager that they would look to push the deal through regardless of Gyokeres' thoughts on the matter. Given the salary increase he'd likely receive I doubt it would take much convincing...

    Points for Play offs

    To be fair he's not really throwing in the towel. It was always going to be a massively tall order - which was only made more difficult by the fact that many of the teams currently in and around the play-offs strengthened considerably in the January window.

    I just don't see the value in sending him on in games that we're actively having to chase. It reminds me of fans demanding for Bapaga to be featuring regularly last season when realistically if anything it probably would've done more harm than good to the player, and in equal stead would've...

    Yeah it hasn't clicked at all with Waghorn unfortunately. It'll be interesting what Robins decides to do with him in the summer. Pointless loaning him out unless we can find a club that is willing to pay a significant proportion of his wages (which is unlikely), it'd be far too costly to...

    I think in times of frustration, many fans will always look for an alternative to pin their hopes on. If I remember rightly many did the same with Ponticelli a few years ago - and look where he is now. It's a cliche but fans seriously need to understand the gulf in quality between U23s and...

    I see you're still repeating yourself multiple times a day. Nice to see not much has changed.

    Jamie Allen signs new Contract

    I was thinking this the other day, especially if he hits another 5/6 goals between now and the end of the season. A lot of managers rave about him and teams are well-attuned to the threat that he offers.

    Jamie Allen signs new Contract

    Sorry I misunderstood. Unfortunately that's the rigidness of our model. The budget is the budget and that won't change regardless of the situation or scenario. Understandably the fanbase weren't particularly happy with this as it quite clearly highlighted the lack of interest/ambition from our...

    Unfortunately that won't change unless a miracle happens and a new owner comes in with an appetite to invest. Realistically every single summer will be the same whilst we're under the stewardship of SISU. Robins/Badlan will constantly have to unearth gems (which as a model is completely...

    Well I think we tried. It's fairly well known that we were actively pursuing Paterson.

    Jamie Allen signs new Contract

    Over the past 10 games we sit 16th in terms of form. I wouldn't necessarily suggest it beckons trouble, I think it just highlights what desperately needs addressing in the summer. But equally, it's not like nothing will change. Robins and the backroom staff will obviously try to rectify the gaps...

    Agreed. I've seen people peddle that narrative without a great deal of understanding of how loans actually work. Bar Walker I suspect we would've covered the majority of the remaining outgoing loanees wages.

    How does keeping Kelly for another year translate into next season beckoning trouble? Last nights loss was hugely frustrating but I think that's slightly OTT....

    New stadium update:

    Yeah I wasn't really referring to them as a credible example - rather pointing out the limited number of potential 'partners' in the area that would be able to piggyback the project if the club suddenly dropped out.

    New stadium update:

    Understand your point how they could effectively do as they wish if the deal fell through for whatever reason but I still think you're underestimating the lengths organisations of Warwick Universities size and stature will go to ensure their reputation is protected. Especially when their...

    Definitely bring McFadz back in. Hugill and Ikpeazu (off the bench) will likely feature so we'll need the experience and physicality to mitigate that threat.

    New stadium update:

    I think it would harm their reputation, locally anyway. This would've been the second time in a decade that the club has attempted to spin this yarn and despite SISU's dubious track record they've been led down the garden path. Not a brilliant look for a university that is touted to be in the...

    Yeah I was about to say this. The Wolves boss Lage seems to be a big fan of his also and has tipped him to stake a claim next season in Wolves' first team squad.
