Shows that Robins & co recognised the need for another winger then, but we got outfoxed by P'boro which left us with no time to find an alternative.
Any free agents worth looking at?

We tried to get them to drop it, they wouldn't, the usual brinkmanship then agreed to it
Didn’t realise they changed the rules.
Tbf injury aside, he's made his debut for Rochdale in September 2019, and has only only played the grand total of 42 league games in 4 and a half years since then, only 1 of which was a start. That's a total of 608 minutes of league football (equivalent 6.75 games) in his career.He has just come back from a year out injured what do you expect. Let’s give him the next 4 months and see where he is then.
Surely ticket sale and merchandise are covering that, must be the best it’s been. I don’t get why we’re are buying for next season as our promotion chances will be the same as this.
This guy looks pretty decent but isn’t he a similar player to how we want Wright to play ? I was hoping perhaps for someone with some aerial prescence...
He looks like he has something no one else in the squad has - raw pace. Also looks like he played off the right most of the time at Barnet so he can cover both flanks. I think Wright or Simms will ultimately have to play a lot of games through the middle and it's on the player in that position to give the presence you're talking about. Both have the attributes to do it - up to them to show it.
Yay, but I think you missed one or two "do's" there to be honest.Thanks for that. Now I've got "Mason-Clark do do do...." Going around in my head
Depends on form. If Simms starts banging in the goals, Sakamoto and Wright keep up with their goal scoring form… EMC will have to fight to force his way into the team.Just cos we’ve been looking at the position for so long I think he goes straight in at LW and Haji and Ellis compete for ST, with some rotation for fitness and form among all three.

It’s really exciting, you’ll think the summer we’ll add more options out wide and in midfield.
I'm not sure the 3 that come down next year will be stronger than the 3 that came down this year.The teams coming down are going to be stronger year on year. I don’t think we are in the position to be buying for next season
Nor meI'm not sure the 3 that come down next year will be stronger than the 3 that came down this year.

Exciting signing. Shame he’s not here immediately but would rather get the right players in. Playing a bit of catch up so sorry if I’ve missed it but any rumours of the fee ?
Howey has played little at Dundee, and Burroughs seems to have been on the bench for the last few Lincoln games. Not sure they will be good enough for a Promotion chasing Championship team next season, or possibly a newly promoted Premier League team. Never say never though...Burroughs does have bags of pace so he could develop into a top playerYeah if Wright is going to compete with Simms at ST, we need another wide player in, otherwise we need a striker in as I assume Godden will be off. Will be interesting to see if Burroughs fits back in after a season in L1. If he’s up to it could slot in at RB or at RW. Same for Howley in the middle. If we can promote just one or two from the academy we’re laughing.
Yeh think Sheffield will be poor, Brereton Diaz is only a loan and is clearly playing to stay in the the Prem, Ahmedhodzic wants off, Hamer might just do enough for a move... I guess Villa could buy back Archer to sell on again but not sure he's proved to be worth it.Id be most worried about Luton TBH, if they come down it’ll be with the nucleus of what got them up plus some sensible additions and cash to add more. Probably the least likely to turn basket case.
O'Hare has actually managed his career quite well. He wants to play 1st team football at the highest level he can. He opts out of Villa for a struggling Championship club, for a number of reasons, but getting regular 1st team must have been the biggest. He could have languished for at least 2 seasons at AV or gone on another loan. Now he is repeating the trick. He will want the best move he can get, and there will be no fee to get in the way. That may also mean more in wages. Sounds like he is well advisedAgreed. COH will want to prove he’s a Prem player, there was a lot of opposition at Villa to releasing him in the first place.
He’ll want to play at the next level and if someone offers him that, he probably won’t stay.

Becsuse he can!Why does Andy act like he’s ITK from inside the club and he can’t say anything. His job is literally to report.

I can never work out whether you’re ‘actually as stupid as your contributions on here would have me believe, or just on a permanent wind-up.Surely ticket sale and merchandise are covering that, must be the best it’s been.

Well it’s not going to do anything while it’s in the bank account is it.
Come the summer, Moore and Kelly will be released so thats a decent wage for a top notch free, bit like when Albion got Swift
Godden, Tavares and Allen will likely be moved on for a small fee, again, not too shabby on the wage front
Add to that the few million still rattling around from Gus, the inevitable 10 plus million from Viks move in the summer, we really should be in a position to add 3 or 4 of real quality to push for top 2 next season
