Better Days got one wrong, then!

Does mean we have a weaker LWB than last season then as he couldn't displace McCallum. Although hopefully Giles is backup and someone else will arrive later.

Harsh to say he is weaker as he didn’t get a chance lol, there was no way we’d drop mccallum... I think Giles will be a great signing

Well that is a turn up.

Definitely strengthened a position we needed &, as with majority of recent deals, we know he's been watched for a really long time so as always trust MR & the recruitment team.

He didn't really have a chance to play last season due to the team performance, good opportunity to see how he does in pre season friendlies.

Robins kept Sam in last season towards the end as what's the point in disrupting the side that's winning.

That doesn't question Giles ability really

You'd think that if he offered more than Sam, he'd have got more of a chance when Sam was visibly exhausted.

In that case it backs up that reports of players not rating him as absolute bollocks mate it’s clear he’s rated by staff here & wolves

I love waking up on a Tuesday with absolutely nothing to look forward to, except maybe the treat of an evening tug. However, by 3pm to have a possible new stadium in the works and a new signing is fantastic, what a Tuesday!

Football is great and I'm still going to have that evening tug as the icing on top.

You are going to use your tug as icing?

Mark robins also quoted as saying “he really impressed us in training”

Players didn’t rate his is nonsense

LWB
Giles, Mason

CB
Hyam, McFadz, Rose, Pask, Drysdale,

RWB
Dabo, Dacosta

Pretty happy if we run with that, if the rumours of Panzo come to fruition that's the icing on the cake

Boom!

Love it when signings make sense and fit a clear pattern.

That’s the last “must have” piece of the puzzle I’d say. CB and DM cover would be nice and really we need a ST, but for the first 11 I’d say we are OK even if not where we want to be. No glaring holes in the squad.

Dadashov in at ST next I reckon, but I’ve been predicting that since O’Hare signed

Lad from Monaco would be next level. Reckon we might go for a DM on a free with a bit of experience. Then maybe a couple of gambles on kids perhaps.

Fuck me, we’ve done most of our business and the Championship season hasn’t finished yet!

He was going to bring him on against Southend but Dabo was a red card waiting to happen so brought on Pask instead of Giles that game.

I'm delighted with this signing. Having had him since January he will know exactly how we play so think this is excellent business!
