I think we will sign a striker who can also cover the wing.I think EMC has the physique and technique to be decent in the PL , and from what we've seen so far of Markelo he looks like he could progress also . LW/LWF is one area ,alongside RB , where I think we have enough already
Paying that 8m has paid for itself effectively, as has all the promotions clauses we’ve had inI think Simms being sold will depend on offers for Wright though.
With prem promotion that 3-4m for Simms becomes £8m, so think it will be harder to get a profit, whereas 8/9m on Wright can easily see someone wanting to pay £20m+ for him.
If thats the case can see Simms being retained as a 2/3rd choice.
Yeh if you can lose say 3 players who are barely going to play and make the cost of an extra player who will start every week then its a no brainer really.I dont think the club will see it as making profit now. They will see it as raising funds.
If we could get £7m from Simms to reinvest it is better to do that then sell wright for £15m+
Eccles and BTA surely. Although they’d cost 8-10m for the pairI can see Robin’s coming in for a few players ……
Our players have promotion tax added now, his gambling tycoon overloads will have to cough up.I can see Robin’s coming in for a few players ……
Is the CM as well as Onyeka?I think we will sign a striker who can also cover the wing.
I still stick by we will sign:
GK
CB x 2
LB
CM x 2
CAM
ST/Winger

I think we keep Eccles , Lampard is clearly a fan . He has the physique and technique to be good enough in my opinion.Eccles and BTA surely. Although they’d cost 8-10m for the pair
I’m not saying it’s true but to instantly dismiss it is also moronic.
Last year we talked about forming a more strategic alliance with Posh where we might get first refusal on some players going forward. It’s not impossible therefore that we have continued to monitor their brightest young players.
When ever there is a transfer rumour on here some people default position is “ it’s bollox “ ….
Yes assuming Allen goes and one of Eccles/Torp doesIs the CM as well as Onyeka?
I think JDS will stay and play backup.
I think BTA and Simms will go. We cant get a better chance to get value from them.
Lampard doesn't, and thats all that mattersCan’t see Kitching going anywhere. I rate him as probably our best centre half.
If so the recent extension of his contract must be for resale value?Lampard doesn't, and thats all that matters
Id imagine so. Probably protecting our investment.If so the recent extension of his contract must be for resale value?
Can’t see Kitching going anywhere. I rate him as probably our best centre half.
Yes but a) we've likely got a big backlog of promotion clauses, so will be £15m-ish maybe before we've even improved the squad for the prem, and b) we are a very financially attuned club, so no way we're not think about player profitability from sales.Paying that 8m has paid for itself effectively, as has all the promotions clauses we’ve had in
Yeah I'd be shocked if JDS went, from his comments in interviews Lampard rates him highly.
Yeah rates him in the Championship. We all know JDS gets absolutely smoked in the Premier League.
Correct, that doesn't happen in one summer.People seem to think we’ll be signing a whole new squad. A lot of players will stick around as backup we aren’t going to sign 20 new players FFS

If this is the case we're coming back down with record levels of low points.Yeh 100% this. I genuinely don't think it would be much of a stretch for our starting lineup on 1st day of the season to include:
(GK)
MVE
Thomas
(CB)
(LB)
Grimes
Onyeka
Rudi
Tatsu
EMC
Wright
I think there will be 5-7 "potential to be starters" signings and all else decided by whether we get good offers for players not listed above.
Well he signed a contract extension and is vice captainWhy? On the whole he's been poor for much of this season - so much so he was dropped for our 4th choice CB.
Kitching really does have an odd fan base that puts him on an undeserved pedestal. It's quite strange.
I think he will stay as a backup RB and LBI think we may need an additional RB too. I can't see KKH wasting another year sitting on the bench. Even if he's only loaned out for the season.
If this is the case we're coming back down with record levels of low points.
There's a reason the teams who go up who don't spend (Luton, Burnley, Sheff Utd) come back down within a season.
We'll need to invest as that above won't be good enough
Haven't seen many accounting for that. Think most are saying 8-10Correct, that doesn't happen in one summer.
Well in reality we dont know thebasis of the contract extension.Well he signed a contract extension and is vice captain
