Why have you got Pears in there but not Buckley?

Not in the squad today.

This will be the most comfortable home game WBA have this season. WBA 2 Rovers 0

Hyam isn't signing a new contract, not a chance. I think they will go back in for Colin Rosler next summer to replace him, we love revisiting old targets.

Nixon was also pushing Kapaudi for another good week or so saying our bid was still live despite signing McLoughlin when it clearly wasn't. So yeah coming round to thinking that Henriksson is an alternative to Baradji but Nixon hasn't caught up yet.

Quite possible.

We'll be losing Trav and Buckley so in theory need two replacements, just seems that we are getting the replacements in first.

Cheap. That's the only consideration that comes into play. Folk are still thinking that anything this club does is for the best of the playing side, it isn't. The side on the pitch is well down on priorities at this club, all about getting a side out on the pitch as cheap as possible.

Yeah I was wondering after posting if you can actually sign them and bring them over without having a ESC spot, would they be allowed to train etc? Maybe like you say, do the deal now, send him for his op and tell him to stay in Switzerland until Jan 1st then maybe we could register him and give him an ESC spot then if someone can be converted by then.

Great shout actually, maybe that is the plan.

Nixon still pushing that Baradji is signing, we obviously can't sign him and Henriksson due to ESC places.

I did think Baradji would take that role, so maybe they see this guy as the right sided player we have been after.

He's played central midfield mostly for his club, but seems very attacking. Seems like he can be back up for both Cantwell and Trav.

Just a strange peice of business all round Mafoumbi.

They should be doing everything they can to move on Mafoumbi. Complete waste of a ESC place.

Darren Fletcher who played for Man Utd had it too. He would do yes.

It will be Baradji.

I think it's Baradji the other player VI is alluding too.

Like the Everton game I'm not paying to much attention to a meaningless friendly. However, surely it can't be even up for debate that the side and squad at this time is significantly weaker than the one that ended the season?

Unlikely. Gibson will go the extra mile if needs be. The other way around and we would be pulling out straight away.

He will be the best player here before long.

There will definitely be some more outgoings before the window shuts.

Not a clue mate, didn't give off MD vibes.

For what it's worth, we spent the day in Haugesund yesterday and went up to the ground to have a look, they leave it open so tourists can have a walk in and sit in the main stand. The bloke working there noticed my lads rovers shirt and struck up conversation with us about Tronstad and how much he is loved there, they knew about his contract situation and seemed to think he will do one more year here before moving back, his wife still spends most of her time in Haugesund they were telling us.

Bradford have sold over 16k season tickets. Cheap tickets dont work though, or something.
