    Transfer Rumour Callum Styles

    Quite right, but I think - as shown with Godden - if we’re bringing players in with sizeable fees it doesn’t make them an automatic starter. There’s also the horses for courses argument that we can vary our lineup based on opposition/fitness. We’ve not had that option as long as I’ve been a Cov...

    The Replacement

    No more than fag-packet maths (and I can’t show my workings because I’ve already forgotten how I did it) but I’d ballpark the entire club wages for 23-24 at £25m. Bookmark this til February 2025 when the accounts come out!

    Transfer Rumour Callum Styles

    Another way of looking at it: maybe Bidwell wants to go and be first choice somewhere and this gives us a good (probably starting standard at present) CM whilst also giving cover at LWB?

    Championship thread 23/24

    I really don’t feel like it has to click fast (would be nice), just a gut feeling that second half of the season we’ll have a comparable run to the end of last season. Maybe even stronger.

    15% dropping to 10% if the add-ons in the deal are met (no idea what they will be).

    Championship thread 23/24

    Honestly never thought they’d be anywhere near relegation but their squad, to my knowledge, hasn’t massively changed over the summer and yet bookies had them as one of the favourites to go up. I’d stick them somewhere in the 10-16 positions, barring some mammoth signings. Manager is very good as...

    Matty godden

    Must admit with Godden playing so well today I thought Evo would be coming out swinging tonight (guess there’s still time). I’m fairly happy with our striker options now - thought Godden would be earmarked as 4th choice which would see him leave and replaced, but if we have 3 all competing...

    He’s a very entertaining player to watch, absolutely, but when he tired so early today our pressing game and defensive structure fell to pieces.

    Turnstiles/Getting In

    Got there half an hour before kick off. Don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect to get in before kick off in that instance. Though as FF says, it may well have just been at the queue/queues I was at.

    Turnstiles/Getting In

    Much been said about it? Seemed an absolute fucking shitshow and far worse than I’ve experienced before. Queued for 35 minutes and missed the first 5, but fortunately got in for the first goal. Putting that down to the stewarding, the turnstiles, the supporters who don’t know how to scan a...

    Wilson - 6 - not much to do, kicking very poor. Thomas - 6 - could tell he wasn’t quite fit. Did what he needed to most of the time. Fadz - 7 - kept things calm, not as good on the ball today but solid defensively. Latibeaudiere - 7 - very composed on the ball, one blip. Could tell on very rare...

    Any idea of his defensive output/style?

    The Replacement

    I thought he was very impressive and read that Dortmund were interested.

    Right, all aboard Wouter Burger and Steven Alzate. Mind made up.
