He might as well say Ben Wilson in goal is just not going to replace Gyokeres' goal contributions (even despite his 100% shot to goal ratio)

Wilson’s shot to goal ratio must be infinity since the one part of his body in certain the ball didn’t hit when he scored was his foot.

Latest Robins interview doesn’t suggest anything is imminent, confirms he wants 4 more, but to be honest he isn’t asked particularly insightful questions …..

nothing on how close ?
Nothing on uk or foreign markets
Nothing on loan vs perm
Nothing on progress on replacing Hamer

Wouldn’t answer yay
or nay to any of those questions anyway.

You can normally read a lot into the way answers are given and to be fair to Robins he can be very honest at times

Showing faith in Fabio with that comment at the end. Makes you wonder if he's after another forward or not?! Glad to see him mentioning O'Hare being close too, exciting!

He's not one to throw words around I don't think. Fabio has the pace we need and O'Hare is our best no10.

Two positive posts Greggs, you've chilled out then.

Saying Eccles doesn't have the technical abilities of Gus is definitely comparable to that

Perhaps we should rename this thread the Josh Eccles wank-a-thon

Surely he was just being nice, Tavares could barely get a look in when he was fit and is coming off the back of a serious injury.

Grimes has signed a new 4 yr deal for Swansea. We can rule that one out.

Kitching
Styles
Hamer replacement
AM/forward

Reckon we’ve gone cold on the Barnsley Duo. You’d have expected movement at least on Styles this week if it was happening. They seem to want silly money for Kitching too.

I saw something saying Cashin, who was the other LCB rumour, is only allowed to leave if Derby get him back on loan for this season. Which probably makes him a non-starter as well.

Sounds like Barnsley might be after more for Kitching than Derby are for Cashin. Wouldn't be surprised if we walked away, or we're in a standoff with them seeing who blinks first. I still have a feeling we'll get Styles for some reason.

Should think Cashin will go to Brighton but go back to Derby on loan as part of the deal.

Someone said Holmes from Reading not LCB but we have Lati and Binks to play there so maybe some truth in it. Talented young CB.

The Barnsley chairman saying they turned down a £3m bid for one of their players and that Kitching is definitely not leaving in this window.

Looks like Scott Twine has joined Hull.

That's some signing.

We should get him to throw his toys out the pram. Let's play the game like the big boys do now.

I remember Paul Fletcher saying Gary McSheffrey categorically will not be sold, you know the rest

If we meet their valuation he’ll be gone

A contract won't stop a player having a hissy fit if they really want a move.

Equally the club can just refuse to sell him, not even I can throw a hissy fit for 4 years

If Howley goes I hope it’s somewhere he’s absolutely nailed on to start. I like him, with some minutes under his belt he could be a serious player.

Really hope not with Bidwell. MR keeps talking about building squad depth and competition for places. It would be daft to then get rid of our best LWB defensively who covers LCB too. We should be getting used to having 2-3 good players in every position like proper clubs- the days of SISU famine are over!
