To be honest, I've not paid much attention but remember he was decent when he first arrived.

Yes, but wouldn't stop a signing happening (might delay it).

When it comes to Argentina Football and both current and prospects i know a lot about the players and that league. Let me tell you Valentin Barco is a step up from the Championship. If we managed to get him in on loan it would be a fantastic signing, Valentin's technical ability on the ball is already Premier League standard, he is quick and naturally gifted when it comes to reading the game. The only benefit he would gain from a move to the Championship would be to add some physicality to his game. Barco already is capable and by no means is he a Ayari, who was physically miles off the standard for this division and i am sure Blackburn will find that out soon. I would like to mention a few prospects for all of you to have a look at that are from Argentina. Pedro De La Vega, unbelievable talent on either wing this lad in my opinion if he doesn't suffer any bad injuries will go right to the top. Ezequiel Bullaude, playing for Feyenoord but currently loaned out to Boca Juniors. Bullaude is another real prospect with a small price tag and a player i would put at our current level in terms of his ability and our squad. Agustin Urzi, rapid, tricky and 9 times out of 10 will charge forward. This lad is 23 and is dirt cheap given his potential and i feel the coaches at our club could honestly develop this lad into a Premier League player. One more mention who is not from Argentina but is someone that is unknown playing in Ecuador is a player named Michael Carcelen. This lad is a defensive midfielder, quick strong and relatively good with the ball at his feet. Carcelen would cost around £500k and i am convinced he would do brilliant in the Championship.

Love these sort of suggestions, always enjoy seeing our fans know so much about other leagues

Good move for him that (assuming he plays).

Yeah. Higher than I expected him to go tbh. He's a good prospect but very raw, thought he'd go non-league if I'm honest. Hope it works out.

The way it’s going NL is better standard than the bottom end of League 2 would you say?

Stockport, Wrexham and Notts all up recently.

Maybe these things go in phases , Chesterfield are running away with NL league. All the clubs mentioned have money and a bigger fan base then most of the rest of the teams . They also have momentum . On the other hand teams like Sutton Utd tend to start off ok but then struggle after a season or two , a bit like Forest Green.

Suggests to me another striker is coming in soon he would have been fifth choice at best, Wright might be injured and fourth choice Travese a bit way off match fitness wise.

Colour of Spring is a brilliant album.
Spirit of Eden/ Laughing Stock are two of the greatest artistic statements of all time. Apparently the A+R man of EMI sobbed when he heard SOE for the first time - a) because it was so beautiful and b) because it wouldn’t sell.
And then Mark Hollis packed it all in so he could see his kids grow up.

As Torch said, Hollis' solo album is good too.

Wonder if any other Championship clubs will consider testing Sheffield Wednesdays resolve for Bailey Cadamarteri. Going to be a quality player and I certainly wouldn't trust the owner not to cash in.

I’d hope for Rodrigo Muniz from Fulham… apparently looking to go on loan to the championship

Decent player to be fair. I think Bristol City have been linked to him to replace Weimann who's off to West Brom I believe.

Depends what Nixon calls "ambitious" I suppose.

The Langstaff interest is very real but they're asking for £1.8m+

I can’t see Langstaff happening, doesn’t seem like a Robins type of signing

I thought that too but I have a very reliable source who tells me us & Swansea have both made offers & Southampton are sniffing too.

We need a striker, I’m sure Robins and his scouts are on it, with one going out on loan, Taveres possibly too and Wrighty injured.
We need one but god knows who

You are identifying your source.
You seem to know nothing until it's imminent. Finance or Legal?

Interested to know in what way do you feel he wouldn't be a Robins type signing? Age/career to date or playing style?
