The people at the club now are just ignorant to the local market and too spineless to present anything radical to the owners in case it threatens their own position. The only focus is squeeze and ever dwindling fanbase to the max to ensure a certain static level of income per season. There have been multiple missed opportunities to get thousands back in overnight and at certain times the finances would've allowed it. There is zero real desire for it though in head office. To achieve the gates we did under the Souness/Hughes/Allardyce era we still had to price tickets very competitively because quite simply that is what the local market required it was the only way it would work. If these lot were in charge then we'd be averaging about 18k given their attitude to pricing. It was just the same for Wigan and Bolton by the way, just as it still is now so anyone who constanly cries about crowds and we don't get 20k a home game like we used to because 'shit fans' seriously has a hole in head and a grape where their brains should be. It was never happening at this level and certainly not the way the clubs been run.

His source is pure gibberish...usually when the sun goes down. He's currently hung upside down from a tree.

He regularly just throws out random names for no reason.

In terms of where Tavares is at. Am I right in thinking he has only ever made 15 senior starts? Perhaps he will be more pushing as initially 3rd choice, although that I suppose that depends on either keeping or directly replacing Tronstad and Travis.

Google him - went to Porto for £20m a few years ago (now at Forest). He's 25. I'd be flabbergasted.

Wigan.

Source?

More chance of Ronaldinho from all those years ago

He's got the brains for ot judging by the current crop.

Tavares, De Neve and Forshaw getting a full pre season is superb!.l It's vital to keep Tronstad...think Travis will leave. Brittain an important piece of the jigsaw will surely sign a new deal anytime soon.

David Carmo a big centre half name heard...

I knew him growing up. Technically a very talented player. Unfortunately hung around with some bad influences.

Why does he have an English accent

Sheffield Weds have to be nailed on for relegation. No idea how strong the other two promoted L1 sides are - Wrexham will stay up.

Holy drama! They’ll have to wind it up before they activate the new lad’s additional year option.

We don't seem to commit to anything beyond three years - another indication that at some point the club is going to be wound up I think.

Signed for Goole Town in 2015 according to Transfermarkt….no trace since.

Robbie Cotton, whatever happened to that kid?

A lovely young man with a delightfully soothing voice.

Admittedly looks rather comfortable on the ball think we might have an actual decent signing of course time will tell. Thus is the championship

There was an account on X Rovers Duff who broke it. Broke a few stories last season and came back on and Dropped the Portuguese flag then an hour later dropped the name before Nixon. Then today he’s deleted his account. Very odd

It was actually broke by a poster on twitter, there's 2 which broke the news, shortly after one n other - One which has recently disappeared. Either way the Nixon haters won't accept it, not like he's ever broke a story for us before...Never happened, the lad talks rubbish.....🙄

Did Nicko actually break a true story with this signing? 🤣🤣

Like a young Steven Gerrard, or Robbie Cotton.

I had an Image of Ronnie Barker saying that 😂
