Someone beat you to it with that quip and he was wrong as well.

Marquee signings

Its Rovers under Venkys, it would be far stranger if they followed normal business practices and did advertise it 😉

Payment failed at first as connection timed out, but worked after a 2nd try So it does work, it is just intermittent

Are you somehow suggesting we sit outside of the curve here? I'd take some convincing Your anecdotes won't do. You'll have to back this up with something

How on earth did we survive before projects and pathways??

Apologies, it initially didnt appear. Think because I wasnt logged in. Strange they havent advertised it from what I have seen.

Spent 2nd half of last season on loan at Derby. Very highly rated by their fans. He looks a tall athletic CM.

Haha good one! As we have seen numerous times over the past few years, if that is on the cards then somebody, somewhere will see that it doesn't happen.

Where did you see the offer?

That Darren Witcoop is a terrible source, we have been linked with Armstrong before but you would imagine he will go back to Derby if let out.

I guess it's easy to say Oasis are better than everyone else at the minute, but one could easily argue, that Oasis have 2 good albums and Fontaines D.C. are massive, having a huge impact and already have 4 storming albums. Can't wait to see them in August. I feel like it's far too easy to look back, than look forward and nostalgia is a lovely comfort blanket, but music has only ever progressed by things changing and things being done differently, not re-hashing the same things over and over again.

But he could not play well, at all four attacking positions, which was the statement.

Ah yes, the usual. Take my words totally out of context and resort to calling me negative in the absence of anything constructive. You repeatedly conclude based on your own warped reading of what I am saying that we should never play him, bin him off and never bring through graduates. Firstly, sort out his contract situation. Not interested in conversations or spiel about pathways and projects. Is he willing to sign a proper contract or not? If he is, then we can accelerate his progression into the first team. If not, then strongly consider a sale because its no good us giving him game time just to inflate any tribunal fee. Assuming he does sign. We dont know especially physically if he is ready to potentially play regular Championship football. As it stands, one injury to Cantwell and he would have to. He regularly struggled to stay fit for the under 21s. It would be putting him under unfair pressure and we dont know if he could cope with it. So sign another player. Still there would be plenty of scope for game time. If we are playing high pressing football, and with modern day sub rules, we will be getting minutes into 7 or 8 attacking players per game. He would be one of potentially 10, very rare they would all be fit. It would also allow us to play him when we feel appropriate rather than out of necessity. He could play cup games, he could be integrated slowly initially but if he really looks the part at senior level, and we dont know, then he can play lots more. So sort his contract, then drip feed him in without undue pressure whenever we feel best, keeping him around the first team all season. Can you please tell me what is so negative about that plan?

As far as Tyjon goes I think it's instructive to think of the 9 and 10 role together. Across the two roles we now have four players - Ohashi, Gueye, Tyjon and Cantwell. I think without blocking Tyjon we need at an absolute minimum one more in there. Ideally someone who could play either as a 9 or a 10 as I don't think we can have only four players for two crucial roles, especially when we get into the November to February madness. Even if we count Tyjon as a new first team squad player (and we should) five players in those forward position who have left (Dolan, Weimann, Woodrow, Dennis, ACB) so we are four short. Getting one more back in is the absolute minimum imo. In May last year we had eight players (Ohashi, Gueye, Weiman, Dolan, Dennis, Woodrow, Cantwell, ACB) who played across 9 and 10. I am sure we will sign someone. Maybe two. And that would be no real impediment to Tyjon, he will get plenty of game time.

That thought must keep the Chicken Chokers awake at night.

He’ll move when he feels like it. The player holds all the cards in situations like this.

... and if we get promoted?

Just not very well.

Then for me, he should play if he's contributing.

Hence we put some sort of clause in that if he gets a certain amount of minutes he plays here. If not then yes move him on

I think Tyjon leaves next summer whether he plays 4 minutes or 4000 minutes to be honest.
