Convinced there’s something it an attitude or lifestyle problem there myself, mayve part of Danny Graham’s north east booze brigade. He was warming up in front of us against West Brom, Davenport got the nod to come and and he looked in a proper sulk, stopped warming up and barely moved before being called to come on When he did get on he showed some class and glimpses of the talent we know he has, there’s a player there, I think he’ll carve out a decent career flitting between league one and the championship, a modern day Alan Judge type, but I don’t think we’ll ever see the best of him here.

Holding the management to account

I don’t think anyone had issue with the QEGS background, more that it was sounding like a qualifier, indeed if I recall it’s what the post lead with previously. -

I’m a little disappointed we didn’t loan out the likes of Magloire, Cirino and co, would have been good to get some experience given game time here will be limited with the loanees filling the match day squad -

Is there a solid argument that we are stronger in any position other than left back? Keepers - same Right back - lost back up in Bennett, otherwise same, Nyambe near end of contract but Pike and Carter showing promise Central Defence - lost THB and (thankfully) Branthwaite, brought in the Dutch lad. Carter and Wharton seem to be a future pairing but Ayala staying fit (big if) is crucial - Lenihan nearing end of contract Left Back - Bell and Douglas gone, neither a big loss, Pickering looks ok and new lad could be a good un - progress Central midfield - lost a playmaker in Holtby and backup options in Evans and Trybull (neither a huge loss) brought in Clarkson who seems to occupy similar positions to Buckley Wing forwards - brought in Poveda and Kedra, could be good but big ask to replace Elliotts contributions Strikers - lost a 29 goal man, not replaced at all It seems we are now reliant on a number of attacking players chipping in with goals but the concern is we’ve lost 40 or so goals from last season and brought in players with less than a handful of career goals (maybe even games) between them -

John Park was described by the manager as a workaholic https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/19510574.blackburn-rovers-transfer-chief-appointment-no-brainer-mowbray/ Now call me old fashioned but if someone is a workaholic, working all hours and getting those results something indicates they may not be very adept at actually doing the job. -

Maybe Burke was a tactical leak so if we sign nobody the argument becomes ‘well people didn’t want Burke so they should be happy’ Either way the whole thing stinks -

One way or another we’ll know in 3 hours, I’m in no rush to find out before then just get it done! Expecting it to be someone we haven’t even discussed and comes out of the blue -

Morsey going to Ipswich is a surprise, he’s a shithouse but good enough for this league. Him and Cook forming their grin partnership again -

Interesting signing this lad can’t say I know too much about him but a decent cheap gamble maybe (full name Adetayo Oluwatosin Olusegun Adio Aduramigba Iretioluwa Edun)
