He’s a class player… I mentioned him a fair few weeks ago. A Preston friend of mine says he was the best player he’s seen at dumpdale in a very long time… It’s just not in our DNA to go out and source a player of his calibre…Wages I imagine would be a concern.

People arn’t serious about Bowler still surely not??

He will be the perfect mould for JD & his style of play - It’s a no brainer. Im not getting my hopes up though like many people.

I did… no response

If we get SVDB, Styles & another attacker next week then that will be good for me. Probably with another CB also.

Does JDT run his Instagram on his own? I ask because he’s replied to my direct inbox….

Wow…this maybe what breaks the camels back with regards to transfers…Shambles! What the F*** is going in! Venkys out!!!

I think the contrast of winning 4 games on the trott to then conceding 6 goals in 2 games without conceding doesn’t help.

Reading was far worse considering their squad.

He has to rotate due to the fast influx of games so I understand the swap & change. I agree about vale 1000% as whoever was at the QPR game could tell he isn’t cut out…Howveer…JDT literally has no other options. The whole point of all this is squad depth. We have none!

I get his tactics. We just don’t have the quality to Fulfil. I think he realises the quality he has is poor…Hence his frustration on transfers….I feel Rothwell & JDT would of worked wonders together.

Yeap…Styles what we are screaming for. Creativity in midfield or as a LWB. I’m shocked that we or anyone else hasn’t gone in for him. Why we went for Szmodics instead I do not know.

Callum Styles in please Greg!

5 players in 2 weeks…Not a chance… Going to be a difficult season. I have faith in JDT but at the same time feel very sorry for him… Stoke @ home next…think we will be back to winning ways…Sounds bad but anything other than a loss at the moment is a good result.

Yeap…rate him a lot, even with this awful squad. Get styles on the other side and we will be much improved.

Thank god there’s a home game next!

This is beyond worrying. We look a lot worse than we did under Mowbray. Not enough quality, finishing 15th with this squad would be an achievement for JDT. That’s if he’s still here by then.

So so bad this…if we get any kind of result here I will eat my hat.

Yeap…Works the other way round also…I think the majority of us thought we’d beat Reading 😂

I maybe naive here but why would he reject a club he says he ‘loves’ & has a ‘special connection to the fans’ to no offence Sunderland….By all means they have a huge fan base but what else?

Class! Styles & Brittain either side would be lethal. We can dream.

Styles…Pleaseeeeeeee!!!

There’s a player there…I feel he’ll be very much like Rothwell. We will see him now & again but goes missing a lot of the time. If he chips a few goals in here & there then we should be happy.

2 weeks to sign 5 players….
