Friends who are blues fans rate him. Work horse, good honest pro.

Count yourself lucky that he's still here and the regime haven't seen him off. He will be the 'project' for January, expect Jackson to release stories about him being homesick and refusing to sign a new deal during November / December. I suspect the only real ambition at the start of the summer was to ensure that Dolan, Brittain, Hyam, Travis, Tronstad were all out of the door for as much money as possible. A normal functioning club would have moved heaven and earth to keep as many of them as possible after last season's efforts, but no, at Venky Rovers the only aim is to get them out asap. Deliberately and consciously breaking up the core and spine of the side that finished 7th last season. I've seen some classics on the delusion scale in my time following this club but the suggestion from some that the club are getting shut of all that lot because they failed to get us into the top 6 and we are trying to improve on 7th has to be the best one yet. Laughable. This is deliberate managed decline. It has been for the last 2 years and will continue for as long as the two stooges can get away with it. The chickens will be home to roost soon though.

Shit end to a shit window. Relegation fodder.

This thread will get fired up pretty soon after this window!! Sheff Wed, Rovers and???

Taylor Gardner-Hickman is a decent player but we can’t afford to loose Hyam without someone to come in who can churn out 40 games in that position.

If the ED think there is a case to answer they seem to have a 95 per cent success rate in their pursuit of bringing a case.

Pasha and Gestede: "Job done overlords" Starting to make SWAG look like Mr Spendthrift. 🙂

We have moaned for ages about selling players before their contract expire. I didn't realise we had to clarify said players would need replacing with players of the same quality to avoid relegation.

Pasha and Gestede: "Job done overlords"

Well we've found JRC's replacement at least.

Don't you just know it. £2-3 million cash guaranteed from Wrexham, a top earner out the door. In his place a loan and miniscule contribution to his wage with an 'option' to buy. Job is a good one indeed. Couldn't have designed it any better. Meanwhile the regime defenders will point to Hyam's (self inflicted) contract situation, and 'versatility' of the incomer and continue to try and argue it is a job well done.

Might be time for this guy to pick a position:

Decent signing that to be honest. But doesn’t replace Hyam.

Deliberately. I hope people remember this when we are struggling to retain Championship status. Or will it just be shoulder shrugs and excuses?

Can see that happening Hyam sold Miller & Carter to compete for the right centre back slot, and Alebiosu & Gardner-Hickman to compete for right back Gardner-Hickman can also fill a gap in central midfield until Baradji is fit

Replacing a centre back with a jack of all trades on loan?

Miller to replace Hyam then and this guy to cover RB and CM.

*Tumbleweed*

Whatever happened to a team having to agree a fee with a club before speaking to a player,just saw on X that Guehi agreed wages with Liverpool a month ago yet thev've only just agreed the fee with Palace.

Shoulda seen it coming, really. Tronstad in Jan?

Taylor Gardener-Hickman wow just wow. What a sh1t show this has turned into

Agreed. Managed. Decline.

I had the same feeling when Tavares was signed and then we were linked with Baradji. I dont think that the original intention would have been that either of those two were brought in to sit on the bench, I reckon they were the Tronstad/Travis replacements but the situation was then complicated by Baradji's medical situation.

A different Genk forward whose scoring record is about the same as Gudjonsson has signed for Wolves for 24m..
