  1. We need to use the remaining days of this window and the summer to do the following: Exit - Whalsted, Moran, Siggy, Ennis, Telalovic - sorry non of these guys are good enough, end of. Bring in - New experienced GK, central defender, experienced CM, winger and 2 x strikers. A GK and striker are top priorities in my view.
  2. Yes Gally had a good game today but generally not suited to the championship and or JDT style, if we can get both the lad from Swansea and the lad from Orlando in exchange for Gally, I would do the deal..
  3. Think he's played very well so far today
  4. Our defense is about as solid as a ripped T bag!
  5. £2m for Gallagher and bring in the CB on loan and the two strikers (lad from Orlando and guy from Swansea)... Would be over the moon with that..
  6. Pardon my ignorance, but can you elaborate on the Palace point?
  7. If Wharton is sold at c.£20m it proves the model of buying, developing young talent selling high works. In my view for it to work properly at least 20% of that has to be re invested into the team.
  8. Seems a bit pointless, given a) our league position is no man's land b) value in Jan is poor
  9. My personal opinion.. Looks like the manager is giving up, the players are trying but are they really trying, I'm not convinced, I think they are giving up, the fans feel like they are giving up... I've been mega positive for a while but honestly, I think we are flogging a dead horse...
  10. We dropping faster than the titanic.. conceded 50 goals already this season!!
  11. This season has got Coyle written all... over... it...
  12. Got to admit I really admire what Mark Robins has done / is doing at Coventry...
  13. How annoying has the lancashire evening telegraph website become having to subscribe?!
  14. How did the lad from Brighton play when he came on? Yasin?
  15. I often hear criticism of Broughton, personally I think he's done a very good job on the transfer front on the whole given the cash he has to work with.. he has brought in: Hyam - success (+ value) Sammie - success (+ value) Tronstad - success (+ value) Brittain - on the whole a success, granted last month hasn't been great (= value) Siggy - success (+ value) Loans he has brought in have also been decent... Moran / Hill Where has he failed so far... Striker, not getting one at quality required, but was that his fault given budget?? You could argue he invested well in a goalscorer with Sammie who is the top scorer in the league and a fraction of the cost of a decent striker?? Gk - again failed here, we needed an experienced guy for this position, its a high risk position and my view is this should always be an experienced man even if the quality is lower and have younger guy working through over time. Also Broughton is responsible for bringing in JDT who has generally had a hugely positive impact.. we now have an identity playing some brilliant football (granted we need to solidify) but onnthe whole we are playing some exapnsive football, he has also made great progress with some of the players who have played the best football in their career under his watch (JRC, Wharton, Garrett). Given our budget we can't afford dead certs, I think the egg has done a very very good job. I think both him and JDT with a bit of support can get us in the top 10.
  16. Quite mental there are 3 x ex Rovers keepers now playing in the prem... two of which were deemed not good enough by our fans
  17. Seems a sensible approach, but think its time to sell Markanday, he's not good enough for this level.
  18. Our subs ALWAYS make us worse. I said it after the Hull game we need to play with 2 x CDMs.. Tronstad and Travis... for now until we can get back some resilience...
  19. I think for the foreseeable future we need 2 proper cdm's.. I would set up as follows... Brittain Carter Hill Pickering Travis Tronstad Adam Sammy Siggy Telalovic
  20. Just a thought... I wonder if in this league with a smallish squad it's inevitable to go on a death spiral... given the competition and run, proximity of games??
  21. Worse half of the season so far. Moran - shocking he's still in this team. Siggy - don't rate him tbh Our RB abd GK deserve a good slap for their defending for the goal!
