He's Peterborough's chairman and he'll say and do anything to make himself and the club look good. He's seething because he wanted a bigger amount from their sell on. He also said previously we'd over-paid in the first place for Sammie so I would take everything he says with a pinch of salt.

QPR have too, their new guy set up Dykes equaliser yesterday

Kaminski was also hilariously bad yesterday and i think we'd all have him back in a heartbeat. You can expect most keepers at this level to make some mistakes. Pears just does it on the regular.

Looks like he spent his summer in Turkey if you know what I mean

Yes I've warmed to him too. Being sat behind the benches on Tuesday we saw first hand he is someone who has standards and expects everyone, from the players to the guy handing out water bottles, to live up to them. I also think he has a bit more nous than JDT in how to hold the management to account in public without burning bridges. Let's hope he gets what he wants.

I'd rather have Pears than Walton!

Don't think anyone on here's overlooking that. Benson gets pulled up on the regular

I disagree

I'm sorry but £9m for any premier league club is in no way a risk, it's a drop in the ocean. It's a pisstake given his worth to us regardless of his age.

£9m

Sky saying £9m plus add ons fwiw

Eustace laying the ground for us not signing a keeper in the press. Very worrying.

Pretty sure it was Ben Benson seen meticulously organising our defence into shape for the Stockport corner they scored from last night where, as soon as the ball came in, none of our defenders or keeper looked like they had the foggiest what they were meant to be doing. He did some good pointing though at least. Immediately ran to the TV screen in the dugout to see where it had all gone wrong.

Gueye could easily have had two last night in 45 were it not for a top save from their keeper

He was a Liverpool fan as a lad along with his dad and brother but he switched to West Ham when he was a teenager and has supported them ever since

A manager with more than one way of playing? JDT never had that

We didn't stay up on goal difference

Jackson saying anything on JDL? If things are close he usually gets involved

Tbf if we can put that £500k towards securing the Dutch keeper let's grab every penny we can

Siggy on the bench

The younger signings have been given multi-year deals, be plenty complaining if we were handing out two or three year contracts to 33+ year olds

The 33-year-old today became Rovers’ fifth signing of the summer, joining on a one-year deal through to June 2025. Assuming Mafoumbi is included in that five, they're sending quite a lot of mixed messages about whether he is a signing for the first team or U21s

Great news

He's not been signed for the first team, initially at least
