There was no premier league sides after Eccles. unless ( and I hope he does) he goes up another gear he’s a good squad player, there’s signs there he could be class, just needs to do it more often,

You'd have to say he's been better than sheaf this season thoughThere was no premier league sides after Eccles. unless ( and I hope he does) he goes up another gear he’s a good squad player, there’s signs there he could be class, just needs to do it more often,
Definitely, he’s prob been our best midfielder, theres a very good player there, I’m sure Lampard will improve him even more,You'd have to say he's been better than sheaf this season though
Saddle I’ve got a mission for you, Need to know when this manager shit will be sorted as I’m pulling my hair outHe's been fantastic the last 12 months I think
Anyway, mad that there's still people on here who think I make things up for clout hey......

Gonna need more than that, go deep undercover or somethingBanged what i know on the Lampard thread about 4 mate
I think Eccles is really developing to be a decent player and he does deserve a better contract with us.
On the other hand, I don’t understand the timing with no manager in place to say yes or no. Feels like a PR stunt and a chance for Doug to be centre stage infront of the cameras again after another PR own goal on Saturday.

This isn’t a surprise seeing as they were signed with the plan of Hamer in the middle. The few games he was here you could see that.Lati, of all people, did it a couple of times against Sunderland but in general its lacking from our play.
We must now have at least 3 players in the squad who you'd think would thrive off that type of ball.
Would people (not you @Earlsdon_Skyblue1 ) be happy to let Sheaf go and bring in a more expansive and dynamic midfielder with Eccles taking over the DM role? If that’s what King is insisting on theoretically.
100% - as well as Sheaf and Eccles have been playing over the last 12 months, they haven’t filled that Hamer shaped void in our midfield.This isn’t a surprise seeing as they were signed with the plan of Hamer in the middle. The few games he was here you could see that.
00Saddle. Shaken, not a StirrerGonna need more than that, go deep undercover or something
If the money brought in could allow us to bring in 2 to replace Sheaf and Allen then sure.Would people (not you @Earlsdon_Skyblue1 ) be happy to let Sheaf go and bring in a more expansive and dynamic midfielder with Eccles taking over the DM role? If that’s what King is insisting on theoretically.
I'd be fucking ecstatic. Especially if could still get 15 mil, (which we won't now).
I rate Sheaf, he hasn't been as good this season, think the injuries have affected him, but he was one of our best players on Saturday. However, no player is irreplaceable (well Gus seems to be) so if we could bring in a better player in to improve the team then I'm happy to let anyone go.Would people (not you @Earlsdon_Skyblue1 ) be happy to let Sheaf go and bring in a more expansive and dynamic midfielder with Eccles taking over the DM role?

Do you think Eccles best position is a 6 is I guess what I’m asking really?
I definitely think he can play there and would be happy for him to play there if we bought someone in the Hamer mould.
But if we got the right fee for Sheaf what's to say we couldn't bring in a Hamer type and a specialist number 6.
Just saying you can’t fit Eccles, Torp, Rudoni, a six and an eight in all at once. Probably only 3 of the 5.

Only because you tagged me, imagine if we had sold him in the summer for a realistic (and more modest amount) as I was saying we should...
We would have been able to use that money to buy a better midfield, be higher in the league, and maybe Robins would still be here.

I remember the good old days when the number 6 plays long side the number 5 both Centre Half's.
And the number 4 would be the defensive midfielder i.e Ernie Machin ,Lloyd McGrath, Michael Doyle.
Michael Doyle wore 17 when signed the first time in 2003/04 and continued with it for the next season. The season afterwardsI remember the good old days when the number 6 plays long side the number 5 both Centre Half's.

Michael Doyle wore 17 when signed the first time in 2003/04 and continued with it for the next season. The season afterwards
(2005/06) He moved to number 8 and was captaining that season if my memory serves. Then he wore 8 until he was loaned out to Leeds in 2009/10. He then had 8 again when he returned in League 2 in 2017/18. I am a bit of a Doyle fan if you can not tell and was my favourite player after McSheffrey left in 2006.
TLDR: Doyle did not wear 4 for us. He wore 17 and then 8
