Ignore him , he later posted he reckons King will pocket the money . That's despite breaking our transfer record twice in preseason .
Unfortunately we still have these idiots supporting us

Read my post again, I didn’t say he would, I said he may. It’s assumptive that because he spent the Gyokeres money, he will spend the Hamer money. He might want to keep it, especially if we continue to get results and have O’Hare’s return on the cards; there may also be the possibility of loans. I’m not sure why people are getting irritated for me to suggest that a successful businessman might want to turn some of his profit in on this occasion.

He has 100% of the shares Pete. Any profits or losses are Kings, in the end.

Why are you defending him so much? The guys track record is weak. Like i said every journalist gets one right eventually.

Now I’m not suggesting for a second that Gus had an attitude problem, quite the opposite in fact. But if deep down he didn’t want to be here anymore then the best thing for all concerned is for him to be sold
Click to expand...
Gyokeres and Hamer did want to be here. The problem was they're both ambitious players. The Gyokeres leaving video and Hamer giving his all knowing he was leaving the next day should tell us something.

Good luck to both and thanks for the memories. And thanks for the team their sales have realised.

I reckon £4-5m on a CM, £3-4m on a CB, then a loan AM/ST and £1-2m on a backup/prospect CM.

do me a favour. Cast your mind back to the league two days. Then take a look at our squad right now and watch the highlights from yesterdays game. Then re-read this post.
Fucking pinching myself

One thing I noticed from yesterday is whoever comes in will need to be able to ping a long ball or two, Gus and Doyle could do that well last year and yesterday we tried but didn’t work so well.
Either that or play to others strengths and keep it on the ground more.
You could tell MVE wanted that ball over the top in the first half but we didn't manage to pull it off.

I wonder whether as a back up to Sheaf and Eccles we might look at Sam Field from QPR. Seems to recall we were interested in him before we brought Sheaf in. Apparently there is Championship interest in Field according to Darren Witcoop from the Mirror.

No I just browsed Transfermarkt and clicked on a young midfielder who’s valuation is within our price range (if their valuations are anything to go by)

Tbh no but my fluminense supporting mate spoke highly of him to me about 2 years ago. He is his clubs #8 so keep that in mind.
