Some rather nasty toxic people on here recently, I miss the days when people where light hearted and had a sense of humour. More preaching here than at a local church.

This surely has to be some of the shittiest journalism ever in getting the wrong Humphreys.

Derby County lead Coventry and Swansea in race for £1.5m-rated defender

Cameron Humphreys has been targeted by his former boss Paul Warne amid Championship interest.

We've been in interested in the past. Suspect we've probably moved past this type of target.

We signed him on one of my FM saves and sold him on for about 12m I think. So good move I reckon.

£3m is the number for Cashin but they want him to return on loan for the season.

If we do it early enough this month to give Derby a chance to get someone else in perhaps £3m up front will get him without the loan as opposed to instalments based on promotion etc.

If we look at Kitchen theyve rejected £3m and this lad is wanted by Brighton quite a lot as they’ve had four bids rejected, he’s younger too so we can develop him

Derby County stand firm over Eiran Cashin as Brighton see multiple bids turned down

Brighton have become synonymous with developing young talent over the past half decade and could look to continue that again

Barnsley are keen on a deal for young centre half Mattie Pollock at Watford for their defence.



Pollock’s name came up in talks with the Hornets asked about Callum Styles and remains on the radar.



The Oakwell club have also asked about MK Dons centre half Jack Tucker but shied away at the £400,000 price.



Both could be a replacement for Liam Kitching who is wanted by Coventry City and may be heading for the Championship.

Barnsley chairman has said Kitching is staying put obvious thing to say to appease the Barnsley faithful so if Kitching plays up he can say don’t blame me we had no choice but to let him go.

It’s probably quite insightful from a Barnsley perspective. He has named their 2 replacement targets.

If he keeps playing like he has for the past two games the Barnsley faithful won't care about letting him go.

He’s made a rod for his own back, every player has their price, what he should have said, is we’re not expecting anyone to meet our asking price in this window. When we sell him on 31st of August he’ll have alienated himself even more with our fan base.

Although we definitely need a left footed centre back, I'm not at all fussed about Kitching, but I'd love to see someone like Styles here.

with Hamer gone, O'hare still weeks away and his future unclear, Allen struggling with a heart issue and Palmer made of glass and even unavailable when he's not injured, there's definitely a place for a creative player to come in and make a name for themselves.

I did think it was a daft statement to make, I can see Williams attracting interest from clubs and I've just seen that Bristol City might be keen on Herbie Kane.
I also think if we get Styles then Bidwell will be allowed to leave.

Ideally could do with a couple in before Wednesday so they can have at least a day’s training before Sunderland.

This summer has created a bit of confusion in the market we are looking at. We have completed signings of players bigger clubs were after. We have been given overpriced values on players nobody else is after. No wonder Robins is frustrated, 2 mill for Thomas was fair, 3 mill for the lad at Barnsley is nuts.

I can see a few loans and maybe 1 perm over the next 10 days. We have to get depth in, but they must be on par or better than the best you have. Its not easy but we need that depth to improve and sustain being at the top end of the championship. COH back starting with Allen and Tavares back in 1st team squads would be very welcome sight.

Herbie Kane is not championship quality. No pace and takes an age releasing the ball. I think he’s dog shit

But if Robins rates him I assume you are fine with the club spending whatever Robins thinks he is worth on him?

We need another sitting midfielder. We are expecting Sheaf to do the lot at the moment. Eccles is used for cover at right back more often than not and Kelly isn’t going to start every game. If we are going to get another creative midfielder, we need another holder to give them the freedom to do so.

Get 2 CBs in and Lats can add depth as a holding mid role. I honestly think that's his natural position and a position he could play in the championship easily.

We are crying out for an 8. Someone who naturally drives out with the ball and can play that critical final pass.

Did I say we need to replace him? I just said he’s used for cover at right back so we need another midfielder. I think he’s a good player. Read.

Im sure that is what Robins wants in along with 2 CB and another attacking option.

That makes zero sense, if we need cover at right back, surely we bring in another right back.

There's literally no logic in your argument.
