    Summer transfer rumours

    Grimes starts the season but I think PL teams will target him and it will be really hard for him. Great player, clever and effective, but he’s not big and powerful. He’s going to have to use all his experience, would love to see him step up.

    I've just got one, it is worth continuing to refresh

    Sir Douglas King interview tomorrow 9am

    Sunderland's strategy, though successful, was high risk. Burnley were struggling because they had no financial fleixbility, signed a load of top championship players with promotion clauses and obligations to buy. Onyeka aside we are free of that, and like Sunderland less constrained by...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Agreed and I hope he does (post European adventure with us). He’s also very good with the media which is a key part of that job.

    Hackney and McGree are great players.

    Signings from parachute clubs

    Assuming none of the 3 sides the below play for go up, which is probably unlikely, I’d be really happy with any of these. However I think all will have PL suitors already. Azeez Hackney Hughes

    10 more wins does it

    Ipswich and Boro play each other, so less than that but still very unlikely

    Who makes it in the Prem?

    Bobby Thomas definitely. His ability at set pieces will be important. He’s still young for a CB, could be an established PL defender in 2-3 years.

    ‘The Ones Who Got Away’

    I think we might have missed the boat now - he seems to be getting better and better

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Rationale was that the fixture congestion would see them underperform, but they’re good enough to win any of those games, of course.

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Big old nonsense, what if, hypothetical, predictor of predictors. I think 13 points is pretty conceivable for them, condensed timings but they've got a good squad. They play Wednesday which is 3 points, so then it's 10 from 6. Sat 21 Feb – Wrexham vs Ipswich - 1 point Tue 24 Feb – Watford vs...

    Transfer Rumour Frank Onyeka

    Yes yes yes. Could be a big difference maker for us. Got to think he’s got plenty to offer this season, he’ll be sharp after AFCON but had few minutes before.

    Transfer Rumour Frank Onyeka

    He completely changes our team for me. Everything we obviously lack, he seems to have. We might still be open and too aggressive going forwards but he’s going to make a massive difference in mitigating that.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Is it that deep? There’s 3 or 4 decent sides up there that are close to if not championship standard, the rest of the league is poor. However for him it’s about playing first team football, getting lots of minutes, playing in front of decent crowds and enjoying himself.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    For me Onyeka is needed. We are so vulnerable to the counter and lack physicality in the middle. He helps us in both regards.
