I would add Shipley to that list too if it means we can bring in just 1 decent player who can bridge the defence to attack and is not afraid to shoot at goal and chip in with a few goals.

You’d have to pay to get rid of them and that’s not being flippant

We need to recall Mason and Eccles.

Get rid or loan - Pask, Shipley, Kasta, Baka

Absolutely right. Unless wise heads are used we are quite limited. There are many other clubs who are really screwed though in terms of wages

If so then we need to recall Mason asap

Mason is an ok replacement but if McCallum does go then its Giles with Mason, that does weaken us potentially

Not sure if misinformed or situation has changed but Norwich were previously quoted as not looking to recall any of their loanees - they were eyeing a new signing for LB.

Agree on Eccles and Mason but I can't see that there would be many takers for those four. Possibly Shipley and Baka on loan to league 1.

Depends if anyone makes a move for Max Aarons at Norwich. United interested. Should he go and they don’t sign anyone I assume they’d recall Sam as backup. Lots of ifs

Can't see him being a backup Right Back, he's looked really uncomfortable on that side for us.

If we got offered 5 million for Hamer would you take it if it meant we could get in decent enough CDM CAM and ST?

We can’t afford to have players who will take a month or more to be at the right fitness levels.

Don't think signing retired players really fits the recruitment model.

I didn’t realise he had retired at 32, better sign Craig Gardner instead then.

I think it was tongue in cheek as he's retired too.

Luke Thomas has been linked with a loan move to Ipswich in January. I'd certainly take his pace in the team right now...

Is he no longer a first team regular at Barnsley?

So has COH now

I liked Luke Thomas when he was here and he was definitely a hard worker, I don't think that's the kind of player we need though. Another short, technically good attacking player, who struggles with his final ball / finishing.

Been used as a substitute pretty much all the time we’ve had him. I really like him in that role.
The way we play at 100MPH pressing from the front constantly for 90 minutes, is very energy consuming, so our head coach makes 3 substitutions at the same time in the forward positions around the 60 minute mark, and he’s often one of them, he scares the shit out of tiring defenders with his pace, he’s a brilliant asset in my opinion, but obviously if he’s leaving The club have their eye on a replacement, they believe is better than him.
