Compare that QPR keeper risking an injury in a dead rubber to beat Simms to a cross with Collins patting the ball to Che Adams

Literally this! And that was his first game for them. Thought he was quite impressive actually.

He’s done things that make no sense unless he’s either chucking games on purpose or his head has gone. Not even Simon Moore at his worst was doing some of this stuff.

Agreed honestly it has been laughable the weird goals he's let in. I'm not for a second saying he's fixing, it's worse than that, he's utter shite

People will still say he is better than Wilson because they’ve seen a statistical graphic on Twitter. Try watching him every week.

Very telling comments from Robins in his Cov Tele interview I thought ….

He talked to the players yesterday about the importance of being in it for the full journey, not using Cov as a stepping stone and looking to jump ship as soon as a better offer comes along …

I don’t think it was a dig at COH who has been with us for a while but maybe he already knows that some players agents are trying to get them another move this summer …. Sheaf ? Simms ? MVE ?

@Saddlebrains any views ?

If they want to use us as a stepping stone, they’ve got to put consistent top class performances in week in weeknout, so in that respect , I don’t mind as it benefits us.

Im also not that worried about any of them bar Sheaf

I don’t disagree to an extent @blindfaith but we need that over 2 to 3 seasons not one season or it is very difficult for us to find any consistent and momentum .

Can’t level that at sheaf he’s played over 100 games for us - if and when he leaves, he’s given us outstanding service

This is exactly where we have to utilise loan market better / helps bridge gap of squad rebuilding.

Sounds like Binks is a contingency option if other targets don’t come to fruition or Binks becomes more affordable ….

Robins clearly knows we need more proven experience at the back

Pretty much although I'd keep Tavares around tbh. Always had my doubts he could step up but credit where its due, he was decent towards the end. Either that or loan him out to get some proper game time, but I'm aware he just has the 1 year left atm.

Sheaf could go but only if someone meets the asking price.


But as i said the other day, he wont cause any issues if not the man is a consummate pro

We cannot spend the season with Dasilva and Lati as the full back rotation options.

No brainer. You have to make the free market work for you, he'd be a great signing on a free. Very happy.

Nixon says Luton and Ipswich are after Sheaf. Also that Fulham have watched him and he’d be available for around 10m

Luton got no chance if they come down. If the others cough up the asking price, which I suspect is north of 10m then fair enough.

If the early rumours of Rudoni, Dolan and McCallum are true then its a great start. All have good Championship experience and McCallum is the oldest at 23!

Not sure why Luton think they will have a chance tbh. They’re going to be in the championship and I’m sure Sheaf will only be interested in moving if it’s to the Prem

No way he will move to Luton especially if they get relegated.
