Browne is the sort of technically astute, dogged player that you hate to have in the opposing team. So great signing if it comes off. McCallum = solid business. Rudoni would be special but I suspect we’ll face competition

That’s great. But I can assure you I don’t need any granular minutiae to tell me he can’t defend. Maybe one of the dangers of the method you describe is that you can convince yourself of things that just aren’t there.

I think we’ll have a very good season. Less big hitting clubs coming down as well. We have lots of goals in us which is the difference in the championship

If Sheaf goes to the Premiership he’ll need to cut out the numerous passes he gives away each game. He won’t get regular games as it’s all about possession.

On balance I think recruitment was excellent. In the definite hits category you have MVE, Wright, Simms, Sakamoto and Kitching. Solid additions were Thomas and Torp. Latibeaudiere played a part and I’d say Dasilva and Collins disappointed. If you look at the 5 at the start they were signed for...

He can’t defend. But a great trait for a defender

Interesting to hear who people think our best signing of last year was. Got to be Wright for me.

If they are interested what on earth have their scouts seen.

No, it’s just a proven hotbed of good keepers

Jensen from Lincoln?

Scandinavian keeper wouldn’t surprise me at all.

I’d be happy with Palmer in the squad but if the opportunity to get any cash for him arises I’d happily take it.

No, on wages

Spent a ton of cash.

Has to be £15m + for Sheaf. I reckon there will be quite a bit of interest in Wright & Simms. Goals are a potent commodity.

With him still in contract that fee needs to be £15-20m. He’s a slightly easier type of player to replace than Gyokeres or Hamer.

Forget the stats. It’s about enjoyment. We’ve scored loads of goals, beaten close rivals, defeated Man U and had a tilt at the play offs. It’s been a really enjoyable season

But you have to view things through the prism of the Championship. Of course Eccles is no Graeme Souness, but he’s a top quality Championship midfielder. We’ve scored more goals this season without Hamer so if we are lacking what he bought we’re obviously making up for it elsewhere somehow...

Not really. Eccles is lacking nothing - very good championship midfielder. Kitching had some excellent games alongside Thomas and Torp has been good given that he’s new in. But you can spin it the other way if you’re looking for the negatives

That’s extremely harsh. Eccles has been fine. Torp will settle. Kitching will be our top CH for a good while.
