Leonard’s hiding from it too much, get into the channels Harry

Probably a typo but Pickering is already injured

Two biggest observations from today: John Buckley has a 100% record for us, every single time he comes on the pitch we get worse as a team. He’s absolutely shocking. And I remember having this conversation with a lot of friction when JDT was in charge and he had 2 good games in 5 years, but Rankin-Costello wouldn’t get onto Bolton’s bench. When he looked up, saw Weimann offside and then played the pass anyway I got up and left. Not a football brain cell between them.

Says a lot when a window being better than expected means it’s a 9/10 in some people’s views. We should’ve spent more money; however, if we’re not spending money, it’s been probably as good a window as we could’ve had. Still a striker and a centre back light, wonder if we revisit the cooper deal? A very stop-gap window, which is probably understandable due to us not knowing day to day if our owners will pull the plug or not. Unfortunately will need to do it again next year when Weimann, Mcfadz, Batth, Beck, Brighton lad, Baker, Dolan, Hyam(?) are all out of contract.

See my edit

I don’t disagree, a parent club might. EDIT: they’ll see these players you mention… Sigurdsson scored, Dolan scored, Weimann scored, Hedges scored, even JRC scored… do they fancy him to get in the team?

Depends what you mean by wingers, not to start the number debate off again 🤣 in a 4231 formation your ‘wide’ men of the 3 don’t tend to be the old school 442 winger types. Just another thing to thank pep guardiola for killing. We have Costello, Dolan, Hedges, Sigurdsson, Weimann and the new lad who a parent club might look at and think ‘they’re well stocked in those positions’ rightly or wrongly!

Most wingers play both sides nowadays, including most of ours

Unfortunately sounds like the Brighton lad signing played a part in Godo going elsewhere, Fulham didn’t think he’d get the required game time.

New owners!

If there’s any budget come 11pm today, I’d love us to look at John Egan after the window shuts. Still a free agent.

Armstrong loved a long shot

Stoke fans on Twitter say he’s guaranteed goals from midfield and a great distance shooter

But there were no players in for medicals as far as he’s aware 🤥

Wait which fifa playing modern football lunatics are saying 6 isn’t a CB, ban them immediately

I wonder which one nyambe used?

iMessage 🤣

Keeper - done

If Cantwell hasn’t had his medical yet then he’s spent the last 8 hours sat in a room at Brockhall with Waggott and Suhail cos he was at the training centre this morning

Good move on Baker, loan and out of contract in summer so if he impresses; a potential permanent deal can be done, if not, we say goodbye. Still annoying we’re not spending money, but a sensible signing.

Acronym hell!

Might be info thats out of date, I.e. info that was shared prior to a breakthrough with Cantwell and only just been filtered down but that’s what I’ve heard from a couple of people

Rumours we’ve sent a second bid in for Aasgaard from Wigan, first rejected as confirmed by Maloney after their game.

Interesting stat about this keeper (I may be wrong regarding pears as doing it from memory) He outperformed xG conceded by 10.52 last season, where’s pears under performed by 4. something. Suggests he’s a very good shot stopper, at least over a long season!

Let’s hope his jabs are up to date ready for Saturday!
