Think the shift to a back 5 has helped his confidence massively, some really strong cover to compensate for his biggest weakness, his recovery speed. Good to see him performing well in a back 4 now too though, agree it certainly helps having a creative left footed midfielder to help link things up with him and BBD.

Hearing suggestions from the Coventry side that the game on Tuesday will go ahead at the CBS, but will be the last game they play there for a while. Not 100% confident in the source but that's the suggestion I've got.

Said this on twitter the other day, really happy to see an upturn in Harry Pickering's performances, doesn't get much credit but has been a pretty strong performer this last month or two.

Not an awful performance, but clearly lost that game in the midfield, in hindsight we needed either a back 3 or a holding midfielder today. All the attackers looked pretty bright today, liked the look of Hirst. Bar Travis the defence was pretty strong, nice to see Pickering playing well, not a backline that deserved to concede 3 today. Left far too open on counter attacks, extra man back either in the midfield or defence would've done us the world of good. At least we're creating a few decent chances finally! Onto Wigan.

Because we made the silly decision of loaning Brown our first

Glad to see JRC looks to be staying

Honestly doubt he is, awful player

Pass on rose, MAJOR pass on Harrop

would've had about 5k people watching at most

Don’t know where this idea Hyam generally plays on the left of a back 3 has come from, it was either CCB or RCB when he was at Coventry

I'd imagine it'll be 3 if BBD stays, 4 if he leaves, more would've been nice but I'm pretty happy with that window, of course dependent on the quality of said players, should be enough incomings to leave us with a decent amount of depth.

Really don't agree with the suggestions that a left back is 'priority', the priorities are filling the gaps in the squad, then we can focus on strengthening areas thar are weak in quality.

A decent amount, next step in his development is the championship

15 of those last season, so 15 goals in his most recent season

I'd imagine we've seen movement one one of the Dutch centre halves.

Think the more likely scenario is he was a plan B that is no longer needed...

ST Joe Gelhardt - Loan Rodrigo Muniz – Loan Fabio Silva – Loan Ellis Simms - Loan Cameron Archer - Loan Santiago Munoz - Loan Troy Parrott – Loan Luke Plange - Loan Dane Scarlett - Loan Jay Stansfeld - Loan Andy Carroll - Free Josh Maja - 500K Shane Long - Free Lyle Taylor – Loan Dominic Udoh - 700k Colby Bishop - 500k Ryan Hardie - 800k Luke Jepchott - 700k George Hirst - 700k Liam Delap - Loan List of potential striker targets I drafted at the start of July, whittled itself down pretty fast

The more i think about it the more i can back the Hirst signing

Waste of money to ‘improve’ in a position that we’re already strong in

Every team in the championship would take Archer

Archer unrealistic Gyokeres VERY unrealistic Hardie of a similar level to Hirst

I’m not a massive fan of Hirst but judging him off his time at Rotherham is a bit selective…

Pickering

Rothwell was good but he wasn't THAT good

Neither Rothwell nor Lenihan are worth breaking the wage structure for
