I wouldn't normally reply to you because it's liking arguing with a brick wall but Telalovic is not another Jamie Vardy. -

You said that. As far as I'm aware we're not making fire sales yet We have a young squad that desperately needs good, experienced reinforcements and the free transfer market is an obvious place to look when finances are tight I'm surprised this needs pointing out to one so knowledgeable -

Hundreds of players available on free transfers.....including some of the best in the world. Do you know anything about football? -

With a small squad and apparently no money, we don’t have “time”, another development player who may or may not good. And from what I’ve seen, other than a willingness to run around a lot, there’s not much ability I’m afraid -

He’s 24, in his prime years. He’s not going to get much better so what you see now is probably as good as it gets. Like Vale he looks like a non-league striker to me -

........ against Rotherham? That was the first proper view I've had of the lad and I would hardly label him "good". He's a willing worker and chases every cause but dear me, the ability and quality are sorely lacking. He'll probably end up in non-league football back in Germany -

Decent move for him if true. He’s not good enough at present for the Championship. Hopefully an indication too that we’ll have a striker coming in. A much better one -

Good to score 5 goals but soft powder puff defending again and no sign of players or manager knowing how to fix it. And sign an experienced goalkeeper in the window please. The Rotherham lad will do just fine -

Szmodics added £500,000 to his transfer value today. Wrap him in cotton wool -

They're easy to forget. However I'm probably an outlier on here but I'd rather Lancashire town clubs - even Burnley - were in the PL than minor southern clubs -

Another season wasted, another year older and nearer the care home, and another year realising it's all a waste of time as the Premier League recedes into the distance as an increasing hazy memory You wouldn't mind if we'd reached the playoffs since we came down but we haven't, not even once Meanwhile, the likes of Brighton, Fulham, and Bournemoth and Brentford FFS have become established PL clubs. And that's without mentioning effing Luton, in non league not that long ago -

I wanted us to keep an experienced player who could/should be playing a part in our battle against relegation. Good to hear you’ve got a hotline to Tomasson - look forward to further enlightened inside information -

We didn’t have to let him go. We’ve signed someone who was offered to us. And he’s not what we need. You can’t make it from dot 1 to 2. -

When you’re in a potential relegation battle with a an inexperienced and injury hit squad you don’t ship out one of your most experienced players who can play a number of positions even if he’s out of the manager’s good books at present. It’s easy to join up the dots -

This new kid looks and sounds like another Moran….technically good but not fully developed physically and not ready for the tough cut and thrust of the championship Exactly what we do not need -

The squad is desperately lacking experience and no, letting him go in that regard doesn’t make any sense. It looks like yet another cost cutting measure to me pure and simple -

Blimey I bet Travis can’t believe his luck, moving to a club pushing for automatic promotion from one sinking into a relegation battle Good luck to him. I imagine CambridgeRover is delighted 😀
