I like the look of miller I follow a good bit of Scottish football he’s decent. How that transfers to the championship only time will tell but can play centre half and rb good age profile is an international - decent signing

Yea hibs manager said it’s nothing too serious and he’s back out on the pitch already - Nixon 2 months was well off the mark who’d have guessed

My guess is miller

According to pretty much all sources reporting the Brittain to boro move, they are all saying it’s his preferred destination. And of course that would make sense also Derby aren’t going to pay near 4million no chance

It may have been missed but il ask again doesn’t anybody on here know how long it takes for minutes to be agreed glen Mullen said he was at the meeting with pasha in attendance and questioned him on loads of things I’m wondering what these were and the responses etc Glenn has been a big critic of the regime so I doubt he sugar coated the questions

Does anybody know how long it takes for ‘minutes’ to be agreed. I’m pretty sure the meeting was well over two weeks ago

Certainly a top 5 in the league right back gone to a direct rival its poor but it’s to be expected and would certainly explain the lack of progress on any other targets recently

Think sports Pete is awful although I think there could be some substance to this given the massive Hackney windfall pending

The 3 promoted teams have spend more than roughly 75% of the division whilst I appreciate we ‘should’ be spending way more - it’s not singular to rovers a lot of teams are behind them teams so far in the window

Good shout played 45mins for Sunderland last week came on for Ballard Not in today’s squad

If dragging it down is challenging another posters views then I think everybody is doing it one way or another so again please just scroll on past.

It’s about as necessary as you responding to this when it doesn’t involve you really . But here we are

Yes but the point I’m making is it’s the exact same scenario we lost szmodics and brought in unproven foreign players - which for the overall team worked out better it’s not proven that will be the case again but to continuously say we will struggle when last season is proof that it won’t necessarily be the case is just strange to me

Scroll on forever blue. If it’s not directed at you or concerns you then you have no reason to be involved

Something which was completely wrong. I will do thanks

It’s occurred near 3 times a season on average for the last 10 years - not rare what’s rare is a a striker scoring 30 plus. Hope that helps

Think we define the term rare differently your bottom paragraph is better phrased - relatively small percent certainly not ‘rare’ as per seen in your own stats

The theory or thinking behind it is they are on pittance to begin with so getting an early contract of 4 year say on about 5/6k per week significantly more than what they would be on. In the hope they flourish and we can demand a reasonable fee

Yes that’s the annoying thing as a fan if the model is to work the money must be reinvested correctly not a very small portion of it

I think the aim is they sign for less than the structure early and if/when they fulfill their potential they are sold on for decent fees. That’s the aim

Really? Define rare pretty sure over the last 5/6 seasons there’s been a good few players hitting 20 goals plus

At least Diaz had a purple patch lol

He would be safer going to Arsenal then getting a loan elsewhere

That’s a myth aimed directly at a player because he was leaving when a team wasn’t performing well he scored 14 goals that season 4/5 assists in the same position Dolan played for us Dolan last season season 7 goals 6 assists 5 goals and 3 assists came from end of Jan onwards so where was he the first 6 months? argument has to work both ways
