  1. Im still with diggerlad on this one.. and no drama if it doesn't happen..
  2. Although disappointed to see Tav leaving. I do think Mcgree is a more than capable replacement and not too significant a downgrade. His signing in January shows some strategic thinking from within the club, which I would like to think is Scott starting to introduce a more sustainable consistent model. The coming days will be interesting to see how or who we have been targeting that we don't know about , Hoppe being a example of this approach. I am quietly confident for the forthcoming season.
  3. Tav is our outstanding player at the moment, That said, Wilder did say at the beginning of the close season to expect the odd surprise in our dealings and maybe people would leave who we didn't expect. A good fee from a deal on Tav would go along way to funding a promotion push. Personally I don't think he is irreplaceable, Timing of the exit would be the biggest problem for me.
  4. Can the settlement money from the Derby situation be included in this ?
  5. On Spence I'm glad its drawn to a conclusion ,I would have snapped your hands of for that deal a year ago. Now we can move onto to doing some positive transfer moves , that essentially, are funded by a player that has been surplus to requirements for a year. In my view this money is essentially a free hit , I have a bit more faith that the current recruitment team will use it wisely and we progress again.
  6. If we are trying to build a squad for a shot promotion I cant see us loosing any of last seasons first choice back 3. Lenihan will add good competition and hopefully rise the standards. We still need minimum 2 left sided defenders.
  7. Glad to see the back of Warnock, his job was to get us out of a mess and he did that, but I don't think the club wanted to see this as a wasted season given its the beginning of a FFP cycle and the investment this summer. I don't disagree with him about us being a couple of players away from a team that can challenge. Wilder looks to be another brought in inline with a long term plan. I am looking forward to seeing the team develop under someone progressive and seeing how he gets the best out of Payero , Sporar Siliki and Tav.
  8. This is painful at the moment.. we are going backwards on the pitch again. I hope the long term plan is worth this seasons short term pain
  9. According to the gazette Warnock referencing players on a list circulated by Watford. He mentions one that has a lot of championship interest and maybe 5 or 6 clubs ahead of us for him. He must mean Andre Grey unless they have made Fletcher available already.
  10. Thanks for the objective opinion, I am looking forward to seeing him perform for us, I think we may have got good value on this deal. good luck for your season.
  11. I Don’t get it about Pears at all, he’s never given me any confidence .. Stoj is a better keeper and Betinelli is an upgrade on Stoj so we have moved forward .. incremental improvement is what we need , it’s what Aitor preached and instilled in the club and it worked until we got a load of money and tried to make a step change. Given our current budgetary constraints it’s the best approach. I would think Warnock knows this and being a canny operator thinks he can probably get a uptick in results that far outweighs the investment we seem to be making or capable of making at the moment.
  12. Probably closer to the truth. out of the two I think Stojanovic is the better keeper, Pears never fills me with confidence when he plays, he just seems to timid.
  13. This crucial window is turning into a shambles .. very disheartening
  14. You may just have stumbled on the root cause of our inability to complete transfers...
  15. Bang average championship plodders would significantly improve us at the moment
  16. We really seem to be very poor at getting any sort of deal for a player finalised. It’s a reflection on our current status and competency but more worryingly our ability to sell our ambition to potential players. The last time we were forward thinking and proficient was when Peter Kenton was involved.
  17. Doesn’t seem to be a lot happening anywhere at the moment . Im confident Warnock will know how to handle it .. it’s when he hands it over to the rest of the team to try and tie deals up that I worry.
  18. If we are going to rebuild so we can challenge. We need a better keeper than Pears. No great miss in my eyes.
  19. One mans word against another... based on the way he has conducted himself over the past 3 years I wouldn’t trust one of the party’s to tell anything close to the truth ...
  20. Always seems to ready to point fingers and blame people round him for my liking
  21. I do like the way Warnock is shaping up here it looks like a no nonsense approach , which is what we needed for years , we can’t hang around playing games with agents and over thinking everything. identify the players we need and see if they are up for it.. if not move on. I liked what he did with Gestede it shows he isn’t for pandering and won’t take nonsense, it’s just what we need at this moment.
