Agreed especially henriksson, I know his season is under way and has fitness under his belt but this is a different league should have came off the bench. Ohashi should have been the 10 with Gueye up top

I’m far from happy with how we are doing things and how things are being run behind the scenes but it’s pretty obvious with the turnaround those players are going to need time. i just find it laughable any football fan watching that game yesterday came to the conclusion that McLaughlin was rubbish what it does highlight for me is what a lot have been saying and asking for - experience he was miles better than the new signings and even most of the players we already had. It’s not a coincidence either experience is worth its weight in gold in this division unfortunately it’s not the model we are after even though it’s obvious

If you thought McLaughlin was rubbish then football isn’t for you. I get you don’t like how things are run and we are all frustrated and of course everybody is entitled to an opinion. However anyone coming away from that game and their take is McLaughlin looked rubbish is just simply wrong

You have history and connections it’s not aimed towards you. It’s in general at all clubs you only need to go on Twitter or message boards and see the amount of posters stating information it’s crazy as for your list Iv been saying the same people myself for couple of weeks now bar cantwell I just don’t see him leaving Travis will be the one he’s the most wanted and has value - at a well run club you hold out for 4/5million for your club captain regardless of contract status but I can see him going for 3

Tbh it seems every summer window and Jan window all clubs have them think it’s just to feel acknowledged a craving for attention. Sad really

Exactly this - acts like someone has phoned him up directly and said ‘Nathan we want you to be the first to know’ it’s common sense ffs

He’s just signed for a new club and contract to 2029

You can quickly remove Travis from there he’s a goner

No sympathy he should have knew what he was getting himself into

I’m not wanting him replaced I think he’s clocked out. So I’d rather someone who committed

Agreed we will likely miss his presence off the field but his limitations on the field under how Val wants to play are there for all to see having said that tronstad was equally as poor a ball carrying midfielder is probably also required likely baradji (how fit not sure)

Travis is gone I don’t think it’s new information Koji miyoshi is the rw going by Val but it’s not enough

If they don’t amend their plans it’s going to be a long season If right winger is the only attacking transfer we are aiming for then it would need to be salah hedges isn’t good enough henriksson looked like a man just off the plane de neve not effective no attacking threat in that team at all until Kargbo came on and even at that we could barely get the ball to him the last half an hour worrying as that was a very average wba team plus side Derby lost

If it is a hard reset I still don’t understand why cantwell would be one to leave he’s only been here a year

Suppose we should be thankful as Glen said the players and staff are in good form with one and other a loss today (which tbf away to wba on normal circs is tough) will make for interesting viewing at home vs brady and co

I’m not pretending I’m fully aware of how the club is being run. That said the last page has been about cantwell leaving which is highly unlikely to happen this summer window given his wages his personality and stop start career of/when he goes it’s more likely to be in Jan if he’s performed well or next summer

And when he doesn’t leave what will be said? this has literally been made up and now people are jumping on

Cantwell won’t be leaving this has snowballed for no apparent reason

Middle paragraph is a contradiction in itself the last line is the problem

Sounds like a horror show in the background and excuse my ignorance but how/why can’t ex players/staff come forward to discuss the club? Is it a case of defamation? Reason I ask is the latest podcasts there Owen coyle took a battering from some players isn’t that the same or is that different?

Well that’s silly your not bothered about losing your club captain and starting number 10 strange

Wasn’t the point in question I agree with all of the above but it’s not what you said - you said no offer

Well it doesn’t matter in the context of my reply you said he hasn’t been offered anything I’m saying he has whether he’s been offered a reasonable contract I’d likely agree and say no but don’t change the goalposts mid debate

And for the record I think the club and venkys are probably the third worst run club in the uk couldn’t see them far enough away from rovers but when debating things let’s not make stuff up without any sort of evidence. Doesn’t really do anything for anybody on a message board

Now your changing your wording to ‘serious offer’ that’s a different conversation altogether You have went from no offer in one response to serious offer in the next which is it?
