Bit of extra game time for biamou I guessWhy didn't he play from the start? A bit odd to play Biamou who is very much around the first team anyway, instead of Thomas who needs to prove himself.
Since when has that stopped us selling someone?No way would I even think of selling Willis <snip> we would be massively weakening the side of we sold him.
Davies has looked good too though and then you also have Grimmer and Stokes who can both do a job at CB. Now at left back we are overloaded there anyway with Stokes, Haynes, Shipley and Camwell.

Maybe Robins has already made his mind up aboutThomas and therefore it's Biamou who needs to prove himself?
Would be surprised if Davies is here in Jan - seems like he was signed on the basis that RMac was going to be out through injury for an extended period & unlikely to be happy to sit on the bench for a full season. May be sold/loaned to provide wiggle room in the budget for a wide man/striker.
Like you say - think we probably have sufficient depth at the back anyway with players being able to cover RB/CB/LB as needed (also you forgot Dom Hyam)

I can only think of 1 season, and that's the first but we did lose DMcG in January.Context is everything: we’ve never sold players when we’ve been doing well. In L1, we’ve mostly been able to have got important transfer targets in-season, whilst not selling key players, when we’re having a good season.

The Armstrong season we sold then loaned back Maddison which wasted a signing and along with losing and not replacing Kent disrupted the squad, not to mention offloading O'Brien who was a key figure in thr first half of the season.

Yeah, but you'd get done every time and still end up in prison.There are several ways to skin a cat.

McG and Kent were loans and not our players. We don’t control if they leave or not. We tried to sign McG but we were out bid.
As for Maddison, whether or not the sale affected his performances is another debate for another time. We still kept hold of him for the rest of that season.
In the successful seasons under MR and Mowbray, we kept ahold of key players that were ours and generally signed key transfer targets.
My point is: I can’t see us selling key players if we in with a realistic shot at being successful this year.
It’s not about the details, it’s not even about the players, the worry is that we frequently have to sell to make ends meet in Jan due to poor financial planning from the club.
We all know that regardless of the clubs football situation, if the financial situation demands it we will have to sell.
Is Kwame out of contract in the summer?
It doesn't mean just run round more. The best players put the effort in in a range is ways, improving his fitness and sharpness is one way. Looking at his game and what needs to be improved is another. Jason Farndon seems to be saying that Thomas is coasting.What is the fascination with say he needs to work harder, he needs to score more goals then it doesn't matter if he runs around. If he means work harder in training then he needs to get his finger out

Checkatrade aside, I'm struggling to see where we've had a successful season in recent memory.McG and Kent were loans and not our players. We don’t control if they leave or not. We tried to sign McG but we were out bid.

There's a good video about contract lengths on this page. Thought it showed a well managed squad, suspect the DKE boys will get an extension this summer.Is Kwame out of contract in the summer?
Yep, had to go. Too far down the pecking order and he needs games. Let's hope they play him regularly.
Shame really I would have got Beavon out if the club first.
Miaoww!! Like it. But can I ask, are there any of our current players that you DO like?Doubt Solihull would want him
