Not heard anything about a keeper, but this was before Dovin injury. You're right, i'm presuming they are preparing for both scenarios, go up / stay down, who's likely to leave etc. He told me he is certain a bid will come in for Eccles, there has been whispers about this since January, so...

Honestly haven't been told a name yet, if the talks advance he'll usually then give it up. Literally just told me a couple of things after Stoke at home, so i messaged Saddle to see if he'd heard similar, he said he had.

Yes good to know they having been continuously working, whatever position we finish. Big recruitment meeting in London last week too, hopefully they have a good list together by now.

Not had a name yet, last time i spoke to Saddle he hadn't either. Not sure whether he has yet, i haven't logged on much recently, so haven't kept up with all the threads.

I heard domestic, Saddle said he had heard the same. That's why i'm hoping it's nailed on. The fact it was said specifically 'whether we go up or not' led me to believe that discussions may have already been ongoing.

Who knows. I'm sure someone would benefit from his experience.

I heard after the Stoke game that we had identified a LB (that can also play LCB), whether we go up or not. I messaged Saddle to see if he had heard the same as me and he said he had, so i'm hoping that's nailed on. There are 3 first team players looking to leave / be moved on. Not sure with...

Yeah, i think they will be exposed. Did you watch their cup final? I think Rudoni can go on to improve even further, he was poor today, but everyone was. His willingness to learn and the extra time he puts in after training is what will set him apart. We could make a great profit on him...

This is true. I think JDS turnaround has been quite admirable. Credit to him, has had his fair share of abuse too. From what i've heard, they have a LB lined up, though he has made a case to remain as the back up. Perhaps now they've extended Bidwell, they can use that to gather some sort of fee...

I think we'll see BTA leave before Simms.

Stansfield is mind boggling. Most of his goals just penalties i'm guessing. The market is just ridiculous.

Fair enough.

I think you're right. I think £2.5m for Simms would have been fair, he's not reached any add ons yet. I think £7.7m for Wright is far too much. Though take into account, £10m for the likes of Tom Cannon, we could have been in a much worse position.

No you're right, we do look better with Simms in the side. Just need to look at the stats of games he's started since Lampard came in and how many we've won. When i found out he was playing with an injury about half way through that initial 10 game run, which took us back up towards play offs...

Each to their own. Like i said, sometimes his touch is poor sometimes his knock ons and bringing it down is fine. Same can be said for Wright. I see it multiple times a game from different players, but none bother me more than the other because if they were all to be brilliant, we'd be watching...

Thought Mowbrays interview after our game was quite sad. Looked broken, think he could've done with taking some more time off.

Genuinely do not think it's good for Collins' mental strength to keep putting him back in, although his distribution has been good, each time he makes an error, you can see his head drop.

Sometimes his first touch is poor, sometimes it's fine. Exactly the same can be said for Wright. Same goes for Rudoni, Sheaf, MVE, etc. They all have multiple poor first touches per game, i saw loads today. It's just over exaggerated when it's Simms because he's the boo boy.

No, i was agreeing with Mucca when he said he is not the reason we conceded 3. Came across wrong. Wright is inconsistent, he always has been, all you have to do is look back through multiple threads from this season and last. Yes, he has absolutely great games (Sunderland being the last for...

Logged on to say something similar, i don't understand why we are persisting with the same approach to away games, especially with these teams that sit in a low block. You're also correct about Wright. Had a good discussion today with those around me, if we are going to declare that we need to...
