Amazing that all we had to do was give Mafoumbi 30 seconds of league action last season and we could have converted him to a GBE slot this summer.

I'd like to see us try Alebiosu in front of Miller on the right hand side tomorrow. Then play Wharton, Pickering, Tavares, Montgomery, Gueye and Kargbo from the start.

Nixon doesn't think Miyoshi is happening now for what it's worth.

Miyoshi came on at half time in his game.

Yep think it would. Think we can forget about Miyoshi that one clearly isnt getting done.

Chaddy said he wouldn't get a ST if Coyle was appointed in the run up to it, then changed his mind a day later when he was appointed.

The rule is if two players from the same side go down to injury at the same time then they stay on the pitch after treatment.

Henriksson isnt a number 10, that much is clear. I'd try him further back when Trav goes, seems like his strengths are energy and arriving late in the box. Doesn't have the guile to play behind the striker.

Apart from young lads on the fringes like Montgomery, Duru etc, no first team players will sign a new contract here ever again under this regime. One 3/4 year contract with plan to sell after 2/3 years, rinse and repeat.

Yeah again, Cantwell leaving would be nothing to do with him being "Val's kind of player" or not. It's all about the savings and money in the door if he goes.

Absolutely. I still chuckle/roll my eyes at "I would sell Travisnif we got x million". Why?

I find it interesting that Glen says that Leonard has been frozen out. Seems a strange one to pick on, why? You would think they would want him as the number one man up front with him being an academy product and cheap?

I think we would all rather keep him, because we want what's best for the on field side. I think Cantwell could really step up this year.

For what it's worth I dont think there will be many takers for Cantwell if any at the minute. Let's not pretend though, ig they can bundle him out of the door to save a few quid they will.

Course he will, they always want more. The more savings they can present to there bosses the better. The state of the playing squad is of no concern to them.

Nope. As always, matters on the pitch are well below anything else here. If they can get Cantwell off the books and save a few quid they will jump at it.

They only really plan week to week so I very much doubt it. Recruitment next summer when they realise will be scouring anyone cheap abroad that has a British passport like Taveres.

Also JRC from.last years calculation too. Soon won't have any English players left if what Glen is saying does happen.

All English. Club really don't want those ESC places next summer do they.

You will always find someone in league two or one willing to take him on. You do need some footballers in the side, and I think Cantwell does work a lot harder than given credit for.

Not a patch on the venkys two relegations in 6 years is it 💪

Think it will end up being a huge mistake not sending Leonard out on loan and bringing in another striker.

Number of bodies isn't necessarily an issue, more the quality of those bodies to come in. Have to hope Henriksson and Tavares are any good if we don't want a repeat of last year when Trav and Tron were ran into the ground.

I think something like that too, depending on shipping out Mafoumbi of course.

One more signing unless there are any outgoings. Are Buckley and Pears included in that?
