I’m torn on this as I’m delighted that it appears we have money to improve the team. I’m a little concerned that we are looking like spending a huge amount for us on a 19 year old who’s been a good championship player but has hardly set the world alight. disagree with Paul Mani and Chaddy (Shock), if he’s coming for £8m he’s going to expect a wage in line with what other £8m players are earning. He’s not going to come on £12k as he’s a young player as suggested by Paul, he’s going to be coming on a high wage. Looking at the market I’m sure the £8m could be better spent on a more ‘finished’ article in the championship. A little nervy but I’d love to be proved wrong by the lad coming in and smashing 20 goals this season.

Which was very obviously and clearly a joke...

He’ll be on more than that at Forest I would guess Chaddy. No idea how much but I think after he burst onto the scene he would have been given a decent contract. If we’re paying an £8m fee his wages will be expected to be at least double what you’ve suggested in my opinion. Maybe that’s why we might move on.

How has he missed that!

The Hull player on the other side of the clash of heads has been subbed off. Palmer seems keen to carry on.

Awful clash of heads. Palmer could struggle to stay on here, looked like a bad one

Wow, surely everybody could see that was a tongue in cheek comment apart from you. No wonder you believe everything you read on the internet.

What?? ‘This was down my site called scouting football’ I have no idea what you are trying to say here. Are you saying it’s on your site so it must be ok? Or are you saying that just because it’s on a showreel site with 18k followers it must also be ok?? As someone alluded to, do you remember the Carlos Villanueva showreel? My two penneth worth, I think (from my limited knowledge) that he’s a good prospect and at 19 years old he has time to develop. If we are paying in excess of £5m though i would expect someone a bit more proven, Grabban and Bamford have gone for similar figures and are more established players.

Patrick Roberts off to Girona on loan. Another City player who could have improved us.

I can see us coming unstuck in this one. We have been known to struggle in the early rounds of this one. Reckon it’ll be a draw after 90 mins and then we’ll win on pennos.

Have I missed something? Are mid week championship games all available live in sky now?

Villa looking at paying off Ross McCormack. Think he could do well somewhere. There’s talk of him going back to Australia after he scored 14 in 17 games whilst on loan. He knows this league and could be worth a punt on a free.

Pretty much how I saw it tbf. I think Armstrong has that small and stocky look to him and Dack’s massive arse also makes him look more overweight

Mate was at villa park today and said McGinn was awesome. Think we’ve missed out on a good one there.

We just had a throw in and threw it straight to them.

Really poor so far but at least we haven’t conceded as we probably should have.

Yep, can’t hear a word of it. Crowd are in good voice though lol.

So you don’t believe him yet you still post it on here like it’s fact???

And I could still win the lottery tomorrow night. There’s nothing saying he’s going to bring in 3 loans with 2 being loans with a permenant deal agreed in January.

Nmecha to Preston has been the big one for me. We should have been all over that.

Chaddy, you’re a joke! You always have been but you’ve got even worse. You were clear on how many players you expected us to bring in, we haven’t and now you have to try to put a spin on it and say you’re happy. How can you be happy when the areas you expected covered haven’t been. I can see why you get so much stick.

And then Tom Lawrence looks to have won it for them with a great header

And now a howler from the keeper makes it 1-1

Lovely cross from Barrow for the goal. Been very good and direct so far

Bogle and Pilkington have both scored this afternoon. They are playing a non league team so they should really impress
