Also what's exciting is how many top talents are now open to a move to us who wernt before?Will be a very interesting January. If we are still at the summit then surely players that we earmark will be additions with one eye on the Prem.

I can't think of many SPL signings but John Fleck was a quality signing. Michael Rose was a good signing at the time. We had that random CB that Pressley signed but never played. Think his name was Urquhart or similar.
I'm sure there are more but I'm forgetting them.
1/3 isn't a bad miss rate
Would you get Jizz on the back of your shirt?? Hahaha![]()

I don’t know if he’s any good, but that’s a great name there.
I think it will be a tricky window.
We won’t want to be offering 3 yr deals to players that the club don’t think can step up to the Premier league, equally we can’t offer prem quality players long term deals as we are not certain we will go up and therefore fund their package …. I think we might see a few loans and 1-2 per signings of players we think can make the transition ….
We're not going to be signing 5 players...
Dependant on injuries, I can't really see more than a couple coming in. Maybe 3 at a push.
I think realistically Grimes is likely to play every game. Torp and Rudoni aren’t. Same for Saka and EMC. KKH can cover both sides if needed. So you need bare minimum a KKH for the wings and a forward minded CM IMO.
I don’t believe I said we would be ….
He’s started 4 games and averaged 6.1 this season.If Leeds go down and we go up I would love us to go get that Tanaka, such a class player.
Good point about grimes, do think the first 2 signings if we go up will be hughes and rushworth almost straight away! With hughes palace will be sniffing around though so will need to act quickHe’s started 4 games and averaged 6.1 this season.
He’s evidence we should look for a succession plan this season for Grimes as he was the best player in the league last year and can’t get a kick this
His pace will be a massive issue in the premGrimes is so crucial to how we play I would be very surprised if we go up, for FL to at least not start the season with him and see if he can be impactful in the PL.

Sunderland have done that exact thing. Only 2 starters left in the 11Possibly, but if we go up we will need to be careful about how we break up a successful team.
Only Milan, Sakamoto Emc and Torp I can see being starters, it’s just the way football goes. Successful or not the prem is on another level, it’s sad but I guess it’s football! Would like to think Bobby and kitch could be starting too but who knowsPossibly, but if we go up we will need to be careful about how we break up a successful team.
Yes Grimes physicality be an issue.Only Milan, Sakamoto Emc and Torp I can see being starters, it’s just the way football goes. Successful or not the prem is on another level, it’s sad but I guess it’s football! Would like to think Bobby and kitch could be starting too but who knows
Shit forgot about rudoni lol, of course he’s in there too….wright might wanna move onYes Grimes physicality be an issue.
I could see Rushworth, MVE, Thomas, Rudoni and possibly Wright being the only players who start in the lrem
I don't think we will. I think FL would add 5 or 6, keep the group together and see where it takes us.Sunderland have done that exact thing. Only 2 starters left in the 11
Only 5 or 6? Not a chance will be more like 9/10 with a lot going out! Will be signing proven players then players with potentialI don't think we will. I think FL would add 5 or 6, keep the group together and see where it takes us.
I think the likes of Saka, EMC and BTA will be given a chance to play.Yes Grimes physicality be an issue.

You think we'll be spending over 100 mill then?Only 5 or 6? Not a chance will be more like 9/10 with a lot going out! Will be signing proven players then players with potential
Hopefully do what Sunderland do, will have a massive pot, will need to make sure we spend it on the right playersYou think we'll be spending over 100 mill then?
squad players but no chance regular startersI think the likes of Saka, EMC and BTA will be given a chance to play.
Have a feeling Saka and emc might start with other new options on the benchsquad players but no chance regular starters
