Toney wouldnt be a bad signing but he would be one for the future not someone who could come in and do it straight away.He was sent back to Newcastle by Wigan last year and didn't exactly set the league alight when he went Scunthorpe.He has potential but he has a lot to learn.Winnall is a good suggestion but he doesn't score a lot of Goals.I hope we keep Graham,Sign another target man type striker and bring in Armstrong on a perm if possible and not too expensive or get him on loan

I hope Moore isn't a target not good enough. Toney has potential but couldn't be relying on him to come in and replace Graham, he is still learning the game.Armstrong I would like to see us sign but again won't be a replacement for Graham too small to play up front on his own and can't hold the ball up.Sam Winnall maybe. I think a lot of people are underestimating Graham's importance to this side.Yes he had a poor start last year but we looked a whole lot better as a team when he got a run of games and it wasn't stop start.Dack also looked a lot better and more dangerous when we had Graham in the side.As others have said it will take a nice chunk of change to bring in a like for like Graham replacement who will also need time to Bed in and work on a partnership with Dack.

I'm going off the telegraph.It said the club decided to not take up the year option as they preferred to renegotiate with Graham.If we had of taken up the option presumably he would be on the same money as when he initially signed with us when we were in the Championship

I have no idea what wage Graham was on when he first signed.Thought I read/heard he was on 14 grand a week last season after the relegation clause so presuming he was on closer go 20 a week before our relegation. The club obviously don't want to pay him as much hence them not taking up the option and preferring to renegotiate

Yeah because we don't want to pay him as much.If we take up the option it would be on the same terms as when he first signed for us

Our wage bill will have gone up without any signings through the door as the lads who had relegation wage reduction clauses in their contracts will see their wages return to their original level, Waggot confirmed this in the telegraph a couple of weeks ago

Yeah but on the same deal he signed with us when he joined. In telegraph few weeks back that we are trying to negotiate on lesser terms. Disagree with the posters who say Graham is finished and wouldn't mind him not re-signing only have to look at his performances 2nd half of season to know that's nonsense.Yeah we won't get a full 90 out of him and will probably not have the legs to start every game but imo we should be doing what we can to get him signed up for next season

Any truth in Jordan Rhodes to rangers?

Agreed so suggesting that McGeough will be our first signing has nothing behind it

Yeah but nothing really been said about McGeough to Rovers in recent weeks.Nixon also tweeted that McGeough was looked at but Mowbray wasn't overly keen.Im aware Nixon saying that means he will probably join but still there has been nothing concrete that we have actually made an offer to McGeough

I thought it said in Telegraph that Mowbray wasn't interested in McGeuoch?

Congratulations on the engagement...but Mowbray has just resigned

Just read the tweets.Morsy is clearly joking if you read the conversation and tweets, Armstrong doesn't even reply.

Genuine source or are you quoting some bellend on Twitter claiming to be itk?

Probably just Twitter nonsense to be fair doesn't really fit the type Mowbray suggested we would be looking to recruit

Who's your shortlist?

Close to joining Lampard at Derby according to the papers

He might have only had 1 outstanding season but he has been premier league quality since he joined Bournemouth. The majority of the times King played as a front man we looked a better side imo. I don't blame Bowyer tho as he had to.play Rhodes and Gestede was undroppable at time. IMO a Gestede king partnership playing all season would have destroyed the championship

Their loaded fries are the best yummy

A lot of talk here about a nothing rumour.Readinf that forum most of em are taking piss out of the guy claiming to be itk. Johnson let Williams go when he was manager why would he want him back

Although villa will cut spending and have to sell they will still have a decent budget if they don't get sanctioned. They have assets,they could end up selling Grealish for 30 million,they could get 10 for kodja and there are others in their squad that they could get decent fees for. For me Bruce has done his best work when he hasn't had fortunes to spend,he did good at Wigan and Hull without huge budgets

A few on here suggesting Sunderland's Paddy McNair well Brighton have had a 2 mill bid rejected. So doubt we will be in for him

Really can't believe he is on 16k a week. Thanks Marcus for your contribution but I really hope we won't be bringing him back.Not suited to the English game imo would be better off playing in a slower paced league.

Was it not Lampard pulling out of talks with Ipswich as they wouldn't pay him enough?Sure I read that somewhere buy it could have just been paper rubbish

So it doesn't matter if Mowbray has a pound to spend or a 100 million? Of course it matters how much we have to spend...much more likely to bring in quality with money than shopping in the bargain bin
