Every player has a price, so if a team would pay the money we're asking, then sure. However, the team has got off to a good start so I wouldn't want to risk breaking the group up in anyway. So it would have to be a very good offer.

How does that any sense? We'll sell a first choice CB and his replacement is a dominant centre forward?! As it stands, we only have 3 contracted CBs and one on non-contract terms. We have enough strikers for the time being. I'd only sell if a team was willing to pay well over the odds for him...

I don't think we should sell. His valuation has probably gone down after relegation, and his replacement would most likely have to be a loan or a free transfer (someone with no preseason), whilst breaking up the Willis-McDonald partnership. We get promoted, he signs a new contract and his...

They're not going to score so that won't be a problem haha

Otis, looking at Doyle's appearances with Sheffield United and Portsmouth, it's mightily impressive. He missed two league games in two seasons at Pompey and made 43 league appearances 3 of his 4 (the other amassing a mere 40 league appearances) seasons at Sheffield in L1. If he carries on in a...

In that scenario, I'd assume Vincenti would partner Stevenson, and we'd have Nazon and Jones on the wing. If it did come to having to put Shipley and Stevenson in CM, I think they have enough about them to cope in L2. If you're in a position where 3 of your top 4 choices are unavailable, you're...

I'm happy with what we've got. I don't think we have any 'needs' left to fill our squad up. As for CM, I think a lot of people are being harsh on Stevenson and Shipley after Tuesday and I don't think they did that bad against a Blackburn side who should be looking to get promoted this season...

I imagine after his first spell, he'd stay. I can't imagine many L1 sides having the appeal for him to leave, and we're in too low a division for a Championship side to take a punt. Watch me be wrong though...

Agreed. It's well worth getting in these talented youngsters, but they should supplement what you currently have, instead they made up the bulk of our starting team. Had we hedged our bets elsewhere and built a squad of L1 players, perhaps we wouldn't have got relegated. But that's irrelevant at...

I was disinterested last season, I checked all the scores, but that's about it. I've been really impressed with our activity and it has reignited my interest again.

I think Andreu and McNulty will be the future of our 10-9 partnership, but, I think McNulty and Beavon still start on Saturday.

Agreed. I thought he'd be a bruiser winning everything aerially and smashing the ball into row Z at the whiff of danger, whilst Willis mopped everything else up. Yet, he's composed on the ball and clearances have met teammates. One of, if not my favourite signings so far. I imagine Kelly is our...

Vincenti will be an outlet for a more direct option too, and Beavon is surprisingly good in the air, reminds me of Jay Tabb in that respect. Think we'll be well rounded this year. Able to play attractive football but at the same time able to be more direct and aggressive when the time comes...

In a season we had Armstrong and Murphy, we failed to come in the playoffs. A lot of people saying we 'need' a 20 goal-a-season striker. If we do, brilliant, but in L1 we had McGoldrick, Clarke, Wilson and Armstrong and the best we achieved was 7th. For me, it's about building a squad that can...

The contrast in transfer policy is stark. TM and MV went for good young loan talent with a couple of experienced lads. Which ultimately proved unsustainable. MR and TW have gone for experienced pros to build our squad. Jones is our only inexperienced starter really. Willis, for his age, is very...

Thomas all day.

The optimist in me would like to think the penny has finally dropped for them. That said, we did build some competitive XIs in L1 before last seasons shambles.

Sounded just like Ron Swanson if you replace 'great' with 'good', or at a push, 'very good'.

Haha someone has just got off Football Manager!

Adding more goals to midfield, and sounds like he'll chip in with assists. I like the sound of this signing. I'm liking that we've built a really versatile side. Especially in midfield, bar Doyle, all of our midfielders can play in more than one position. Kelly and Stevenson can play both CM...
