This part is definitely incorrect, all loans whether they are over or under 21 have to be registered. Still pretty certain that Leonard and Montgomery would need registering this coming season.

I believe they are completely breaching the EFL rules on fan engagement if this becomes the only vehicle

The recently enacted Football Governance Act requires that clubs hold regular meetings with a representative group of supporters.

Trust me, I'm extremely frustrated by the rules, but will respect them. Falling out with our fellow supporters is the last thing we need given how hard we've worked to bring the coalition together based on mutual respect. However what I do promise. If the minutes dont reflect what was said then I will be first to break ranks and clear them up. Ive always stood for transparency (I dont know any other way,) This is the supporters club being dismantled and I will always stand by my pledge to members of supporters groups I represent to always act honestly and with the utmost integrity. I've asked tonight where we are up to on mutually agreed minutes amongst the supporter attendees and no doubt will be emailed back once that communication is read. I was asked to attend by the club as the only ewood comms open , and against my own judgement chose to go. I got some points across but as you'd possibly appreciate one meeting was never going to be enough to discuss 15 years of complete incompetence

Definitely has to be under 21. Doesn’t matter if it’s a loan or academy product. So we could loan players u21 and still have them in the 25 man squad if we have reached that limit

Not sure on the fine details - possibly or maybe it's like the under 21 euros where you can play up to the age of 23 if born within a cut off date🤷🏻‍♂️

Best order some more U's in.

This has all the makings of a YouTube player. Some shocking first touches tied into some great skilful turns. Some great finishes matched with some toe bungs. If we end up with the Aldi version (although this guy's never been sold for any actual money) then a strong mobile striker with a yard of pace ticks my boxes

Is there a governing body, that says that clubs must hold these meetings ?

Do you think there’s a point where no communication would be the better option?

Is this definitely correct? I was under the impression that anyone 21 and over had to be registered, which would include Leonard and Montgomery.

Absolutely no chance. Been linked with Monaco for €5m. Not a chance he's coming here.

Currently strong in defensive areas (but with Brittain set to leave), strong CM (but with Trav likely to leave), very weak attacking options. De Neve, Tyjon, and Kargbo totally unproven at this level, Ohashi is good, Gueye a handful but very erratic and will never be a regular goal scorer, Leonard an injury write off, Cantwell is talented, and Hedges is simply not good enough. We've lost 5 attacking players over the summer - Dolan, Weimann, Dennis, Cozier-Duberry, and Woodrow (albeit the latter 3 completely ineffective and offered nothing). We absolutely need 3 more attacking additions - RW, ST, AM. Presume Baradji will replace Trav, and then it's 3 additions on top of that. 4 if and when Brittain goes.

Basically, I’m not breaking confidence, as, this is the only current communication open with the club. Breach that and we’ve nowt at all. I understand the frustration and so do the entire Forum, but that’s the lay of the land.

This Indian pair have dug in well. It’s very nicely poised still and I’m expecting a close finish tomorrow evening.

As @bluebruce says above, I’m not sure how anyone can have watched last season and say Cantwell is our best player. He’s our best known, but was far from our best. Thats not me criticising him as such, as I feel he’s got an important part to play. But watching him, you can say why he’s ended up here and isn’t on any top clubs radar.

Cantwell? He may be gifted but at this stage that's a strong claim. Wasn't even one of our top 4 players last season.

Now that's a reel I like the look of. Strength, technique, dribbling, quite quick, good vision. Bit of exciting flair in there too. Loves a back heel and knows how to use it. If he's also top scorer in the Conference League as stated, I think we can file this under 'I wish'.

Broggan & Decania,, lol Should be Boggan & Decandia

Newcastle fans really have become entitled. Reading their forum you'd think the sky is falling in. Blaming the club for no ambition. Having a go at Eddie howe. They've just qualified for the champions league for the second time in 3 years won a cup.

Seems to have been the top scorer in the Conference League last season. Surely no way we could afford him and seems a very weak link.

if he costs more than half a million then he is`nt coming here😥

Lost 3-0 - deservedly so I might add.

Looks like he could play the Cantwell role and cover for the strikers. Left footed so maybe can play the Hedges role too.
