Very good signing could solve our LWB position for the next 3 years

Ideal signing if it happens, would certainly add quality competition.

28 so prime age with over 200 games at this level for top half clubs on a free seems very good business

Very happy if that happened - miserable doesn't ever smile type of defender (could fit in well with Sheaf!). Also gets forward a lot iirc.
Had heard rumours Blues were after him, but we would be a lot stronger defensively if we could get hold of him.

Experienced freebie in January...nice
Surprised Swansea aren't asking for a fee of any kind, as the article says this would leave them short at the back.

Along with Kane it’d be another astute signing.

He's been in my fantasy team and scored me plenty of points, so I recommend him.

Why? We sign a left back so let's get rid of a right back, leaving us only Kane and if he gets injured/suspended we're down to playing Dacosta.

Yeah, be a weird flex to sell a player the manger likes. Also we need multiple players that can play rwb

Robins always pulls this shrewd signings out the bag when we have “no cash.” Never change mark.

The club is operating on a shoe string and has had to take further high interest loans - if we really are signing an experience player on a long contract then someone is going

Decent signing for us, just wonder if we are looking at change of formation. Kane and Bidwell more traditional full backs than the wing back style we have played in recent seasons.

Yes. Pask, Jobello, Hilßner & possibly Shipley.

Possibly from binning off a combination from the bomb squad?

And?
You wouldn't raise much of a fee selling Dabo anyway.

Probably but a few hundred £k isn't going to suddenly plug a void in the accounts.

He just can't ever be happy & has to even find a way to turn an incredibly positive story such as this into a dig at the club.
