Here is my take. If the club insurance values Maddison at 2.5m and someone offers 2.5m then it will be down to Venus and Mowbray to decide as it is a footballing matter. However, if Arsenal popped up with a 10m offer, then the decision would be taken out of their hands as a non-footballing...

Looks like the best Stricker I have ever seen...

Given I could care less if we win the league, I agree that beating Walsall has to be the key aim here. Burton can run away with the league as far as I am concerned as long as we get 2nd :) That said if we win both I won't complain!

Always loved Liverpool fans for clapping that hat-trick goal... there's not many fans out there that would do that. Different gravy.

11 wins, 6 draws. 86 points. This will put us in the mix. To be in the mix we need teams like Millwall, Wigan, Sheffield taking points from the top 4 teams to bring the required points down.

Since day 1 I've thought Stokes is a really solid player. Anything more than that from defenders is a bonus... guy plays every game like he is trying to earn a new contract - if only every player had his work ethic. I also think he capable of some headed goals if he goes up for corners, but...

Saw Callum Wilson in Jam Jam Boomerang a few days before he signed for Bournemouth. He was with his son on his own - really nice guy. Alas his little boy Ritchie wasn't interested in one of my many daughters... :) He went and had a little kick around with him in the enclosed...

Hunger not anger.

8 points from Crewe, Chesterfield, Oldham and Vale was the bare minimum. Obviously if we don't take 4 points from the next 2 then those dropped points at Oldham, Chesterfield & Blunts will come back to haunt us.

Some people just deserve to have success and then you have pond life that make it as players that make you sick :) It must be really hard living away from family and friends miles from home, and I think the last couple of weeks being away for holidays has probably took it's toll on him a...

Maybe TM just looking for a 6m contract so that we have cover until the end of the year. Doesn't jump out at me as someone who is going to cut it for us in the Championship based on the comments from Barnsley

Agree that this is likely good news for Lameiras too. Would be nice to see the group from the first few games getting some game time together again.

Sure, doesn't need to be Rose though, could be Cole in CM also. I've no idea how good or not Rose is until I've seen him with my own eyes. Same for Lorentsen.

If I was SISU I'd advance TM funds from next years budget to buy a couple of championship standard players (stealing players from Bolton might be an option for eg) as assets with potential sell-on value for the club so that it isn't just wasted money on loanee wages. The reality is, if we...

There is also the option of playing Vincelot as CB if we want to play other defenders in their natural positions, or want Ricketts as RB. Also would allow us to change to 3 at the back if we wanted to change formation to 3-4-1-1 or similar (Stokes Vince Rickets - Murphy Fleck Rose JOB -...

I think we will look back at this kid in 2-3 years and see a real star... assuming he is willing to learn and doesn't do a Whelan :) Quite possibly the most talented player (with no end product) I have ever seen. If he is willing to ditch Gillingham I would like to see us get Dominic Samuel...

The reality of this is the ultimate problem with very young loans like Murphy, Armstrong, Kent. I think it is ultimately the problem for any professional sportsman - how many real talents have pissed it up the wall due to boredom etc.
