Spurs seriously look like they will go down. Any players of theirs we could reasonably sign? Not suggesting we go for Madison per se, but just thinking out loud. Similarly wondering about players from Wolves and Burnley. Haven’t watched much of these teams.
Rushworth has to be first signing besides FTT who I believe is an obligation to buy anyway. Hope we can sell our strikers to the highest bidder from those going down to the Championship or top tier Championship teams. I’m sure there’d be interest in them. Should help raise funds for the summer.
I would 100% support/encourage them signing Patterson over Rushworth, but McKenna’s the one I’m worried about not their fans. Wish they still find a way to cock up promotion due to the fixture congestion.
Looks like Ipswich want to sign Rushworth in the summer. Wish we could run a tractor over them boys. Absolutely hate them.

Actually in order to overcome the 33 GD they would need to have a plus 17 goal swing and us to have a minus 17 goal swing (eg. they would need to win 4-0, 4-0, 4-0 and 5-0 and at the same time need us to lose 4-0, 4-0, 4-0 and 5-0). Highly unlikely.
We’re on the verge of getting promoted and I’m not sure he can make the step up. He’s not bad, but I don’t know how much he adds to what we have. Wait and see I suppose.
Lessons learned:
1) Saka was sorely missed today.
2) Need a new front line. Wright, BTA and Simms are not Premier League quality.
3) Markelo is a strange signing. Is Yang worse? Esse not much better.
Team needs to realize the job’s still not done. I want the trophy damn it. Finishing 2nd would...
Wright’s just looked lazy and uninspired yet again. With Agyemang’s injury you’d think he’d want to push for selection to the US team. There’s rumors of Wright being sold in the summer which I wouldn’t be totally against if we can get 15-20M for him and find a solid replacement.
