"Pessimistic" about resigning Batth and Weimann, so predictable. We have low-balled them with 1-year contracts and they want to leave. Club to spin as greedy older players/wanted guarantees to start. Replacement a toddler from the Belgian D tier.

Very lucky I got to see him at Kendal Calling one year. R.I.P

I'm not sure that going backwards under Southgate is how I'd frame it, but he'd definitely run out of road. Interestingly, going backwards would probably be more applicable to us so far under Tuchel, tbf.

The Fit and Proper Test pretty much must look like: Prospective Owner- 'Lad, here's a screenshot of my bank balance- never mind that it looks like one that I could have stolen from Google'. EFL- 'Welcome to the family, son'.

I think I remember reading at the time the player himself wanted the shorter contract. Not exactly a ringing endorsement of us but I'm far from being convinced by him either.

Apparently we are

Well he's better than me at least

I would take him over venkys every day of the week.

A bit more on Chansiri. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dejphon_Chansiri

Another fit and proper owner. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1ld90y36q4o

We wont be loaning him out. But how do you know if Ismael rates him?

If De Neve is decent defensively, and Hedges is also favoured, it means the manager wants wingers who are also good tracking back and helping out the full backs. Kargbo hasn’t a defensive bone is his body, so there’s no guarantee he’ll be an automatic starter under Val

A genius indeed. The first record I bought with my own money was Good Vibrations in late 1966 as a 14 year old. I’m not sure whether it was prescient to buy one of the best ever pop songs at such a young age or a curse to realise that it was all downhill from there. I was privileged to see him several times from 2005 when he finally got his life back and before dementia caught him. To paraphrase one of the great lyrics - “I might not always love him, but as long as there are stars above him”.

No problem pal Why would we do that when Ismael rated him? 🤔

"Ends the" perhaps.

Considering he was in the first team for a length of time on £300 a week then probably had a bit of a pay rise how much do we really honestly think he was asking for ?

In the nicest way, you are not normal. Haha

Maybe they'll loan Kargbo out for 6 months.

Wonder if we will go back in for Marwan AL Sahafi for the right wing. His agent spoke of our interest in January along with QPR.

Low wages, just the way they like it and less than they'd have to pay Dolan whose compo will pay this fee probably. Anyone on 10k or over it's a 1 year contract !

Thanks, Val.

At least we'd know what they really wanted it for unlike this lot.

Agree with you. For a winger you expect them to be able to create chances.Hedges creates little,His best attribute is against the top sides, Personally I think he works well with the fullback, played a big part in our big wins last season. He’s not everyone’s cup of tea but he also makes intelligent runs off the ball which opens space for others. But we do need better quality

the club is just handing out random deals because no one has a ****** clue what they are doing,meanwhile our best 3 players are approaching their last year and nothing is being done about it,we are without doubt the worst run club out of the whole 92
