I hope your new source is right Saddle. Really need a CB in and I think the Woolf fits us well

Woolfenden is the right call for me. Hughes is too expensive for his ability. Will be interesting to see if we get a forward bearing in mind that we haven’t lost any. I assume there will only be an in if Bassette goes the other way.

You'll always get a couple people say he's crap, but I've also read fans on their forum rate him highly, just peoples opinions

Right assuming our starting X1 is the team that started yesterday.

We have 9 subs.
Named yesterday.
Wilson
Allen
Raphael
Brau
Bidwell
Kesler
Simms
Sheaf
Sakamoto.

Once Eccles, Woolfenden ( or another) and Lats make it on bench.

Whos not making the bench?

Think we may see a left back leaving...Bidwell and I reckon MVE.

We dont need 3 left backs maybe even Jamie Allen. As Eccles is almost fit.

The Woolf isn’t our primary CH target t Hughes.

the club wanted both.

Hughes to come straight in to the team, Woolf to provide competition …

we may only get The Woolf but don’t expect him to come in and be a class above Thomas and Kitch.

Assuming everyone is fit and we sign 2 more players who obviously at least make a matchday squad, I think Allen, Bidwell, Lati, Rapha all miss out.
I think my maths is ok with that.

but he played nearly every game the season they got promoted , he’s a quality championship centre half with prem experience, if your unhappy about a signing like that then ?

I say this as a Thomas fan but I think Woolf comes in for him. I've changed my mind, I think Kitching has been the more solid of the 2.

I'm not sure about Woolfenden at all. I think it's always a risk bringing in a player who has only ever played at one club for such a large proportion of his career, especially when that club seemingly had a massive level of overperformance more than the sum of it's parts in that time. Just hope we're not falling into a bit of a trap of 'well he's got promoted out of this league before, he must be a top centre back at this level'.

Ultimately though time will tell and I'll certainly give him more than 4 games () before making any sort of judgement.

the truth of course is both Thomas and kitching are decent CBs but neither are brilliant.

I’ll judge him when he plays for us, but I don’t like their fans saying he’s not very good at defending set pieces when we are already hopeless at it

His stats show he’s decent on the ball but average defensively. I get that both come at a premium but I don’t see him doing a great deal to change our defensive problems.

Really ? if we’d of signed him the season they went up it would of been a brilliant signing, we’re getting the same player only with more experienc, brilliant signing

I think those seemingly disappointed in Woolfenden because they want Hughes need a reality check

Hughes is a great player, but he isnt worth the 15 million quid Hull wanted to let him go. Woolfenden is a third of that price, was a mainstay of a side that got promoted from this league, and is an upgrade on both Thomas and Kitching

What more do people want?

They conceded alot of goals the year they went up for an automatic promoted team.
