I reckon Doyle, Hyam and one of the new signings will be modelling the kits. Is there an SBT Bookies event for it? :D

I reckon Doyle, Shipley and Stokes or Willis. Potentially a keeper too?

It would be good if some of the “bigger” players were here.

MR:

Won’t get Maddison money.

Budget has gone up, as promotion bonuses and new players with higher wages as better calibre.

Not singing anyone playing at WC.

Can’t remember much of play off final night.

Got real talented players. All very hungry. Allesanni looks phenomenal. Sterling is great acquisition and gives Grimmer competition.

No Maddison money!
Might listen to higher bids for McNulty perhaps?
Thought they had the buffer from Maddison windfall.

You do realise “Great Expections” you could tell us we’ve just signed Rondaldo on loan and we would have to believe you!

I think it's the opposite. If he comes out and says yeah we got the money then our position when negotiating for a player is disadvantaged if the team knows we have a percentage of that couple million or so in the war chest

In the telegraph article. He has 2 years left on his contract not 1 as thought.
You are right he does have 2 years and we have an option for a third year!!!
I’d tell all clubs to do one!!

MR:

Got to work on throw ins. Don’t understand why players get it wrong.

Happy with support from board and Dave Boddy has done fantastic. Will make improvements to training ground.

Wants more support as it all goes to him. Have to move forward together. Feel good factor atm.

Getting better players in and we have momentum.

Avoided question re Ricoh. He said he can’t contol it or get involved in politics but it needs to be sorted.

Last season was unbelievable. Really tough league. Losing games impacts young players. Took young players a while to get used to Doyle!!

As soon as they get the new shirt out get a close up photo and post on here!
Beat the Telegraph to it - your the Sky Blue Talk man on the spot!

MR:

Three bids for McNulty, all way short. Board have backed him. We’ve offered him a new contract. We want him to stay. He knows what MR thinks of him. Reading have gone away. But all players want to play at higher level.

Baylis wants to stay and sign a new contract.

Unsurprisingly, both got massive rounds of applause.

If true, this is huge.

I’m not sure he sounded convinced about McNulty signing a new deal, the way he spoke about Bayliss sounded more positive in my opinion

Bayliss sounds all good, unless he gets his head turned.


Sounds painful
