Danny simpson available on a free could do a job here at right back and put nyambe at centre half. Id also have mark bunn back whos also played here before.

Wonder how many season tickets sold, last i'd heard was just over 6000.

Definitely pal, maybe hoping for Premiership football next season, when they open their new ground.

They had a lot of money in the bank, sold Bentley for £2mil and also within last 12 months sold Mepham for £12.5 mil, Woods for £6.5mil, Egan £4.1mil, Jozefzoon £3mil and Yennaris for £5mil. So made over £33mil on transfer fees, that's why they are spending.

Better than flowers? You pissed or are you taking the piss? Hart is an atrocious keeper. I dont think raya is all that good, but hart would be a downgrade.

Ill agree with you there.

Just listened to radio lancs, nixon said we will match gallagher bid and offer him bigger wages. Also said there is a consensus that we arent messing about this window. Sounds like carson being looked at.

Anyone listen to radio lancs with nixon this evening? Was it tripe?

Club is a joke under these lot, always will be. Why do people think this will change? Not bought a ST or any club merchandise since 2012 and will continue that stance, these lot are criminal. Get optimistic for a day and then remember we have venkys.

Yep exactly my point pal (hope you arent offended by pal like, Jim, the chap who writes crap articles that nobody reads).

Newcastle were interested, and they are a pretty atrocious outfit so hed get in their side. Only stayed up due to having one of the best managers in europe. Selling him would be madness, but as you say its been said mowbray likes him. So if it happened, are we saying venkys have told tm and sw to sell?

Hes signing for brentford for £5mil. Having a good spend are brentford.

Considering he has the worst distribution ive seen from any keeper, it is rather baffling.

Well seen as comments that have come out of the club, mention a similar budget to last season, when £10million was spent on transfer fees, and there was supposedly more leftover in january, its feasible that people assume £10 million minimum will be available on fees.

Im very negative but genuinly believe now that if we sign a good striker for 5mil and then a good centre half plus darlow we will have a great chance this season

Theyve no money never mind the £10mil minimum it would take. Hes staying here, strutting his stuff with rothwell, whilst downing, travis and johnson run the show.

You dont have a dictionary then?

Common tongue in Darwen. Pal offensive, christ, ive heard it all now pal.

Raya only played 53 games outside of league one pal. Darlow played 167 games above league one level, so what's that 114 more over maybe 4 more seasons than what Rayas had? Won't be a massive diffence in Rayas stats when he's at 28 and 4 more seasons in, in terms of games played at championship and above, I wouldn't have thought pal, maybe equate to a seasons more worth of games at 28. Darlow also proved himself to be well equipped at premier league level. Why don't EPL teams want him then, you ask? Probably because most of them have very solid keepers, and don't need a Darlow. Just an onjective point of view pal.

Can we say Zidane and Lewandowski?

Not bothered with Raya leaving, but if it's Joe Hart who comes in, then I wouldn't be happy at all, Burnleys bad run last season coincided with him playing all the games. Forster i would like for sure.

That fella on derby forum was right then about johnson, if he was also correct about butterfield then surely smallwood and evans need to be shipped out. Happy with midfield now, but only if chapman is fit, if not we need a winger. Then one striker and a centre half would do it. Then maybe a couple of cheeky loans to bolster the squad.

Forest fans probably said same when we signed Brereton pal. If they have some spanish coach, as has been mentioned, that has probably swayed it, maybe he thinks he can improve him, which is fair enough, but I wouldn't like to see him as first team keeper here for another 2 or 3 season waiting for him to improve which I doubt he would under our 'non footballing' keeper coach Benson, if he was a backup keeper, that would be okay, but not as first choice, imo.

Raya Defending his goal on corners/crosses, terrible Communication to defenders, terrible Distribution, absolutley terrible Unforced errors, far too many Points cost per season, 10-15 Very average keeper, if he wasn't an academy product, think he would have been that scapegoat, we always seem to like to have.

Ex Boro player probably or Coventry, West Brom, or someone we played against in league 1.
