You're*

Or someone who was being facetious and it went over the head of a serial bore.

I'm vertically challenged and better than Pears, so it's likely.

Let's hope so. Based purely on the teams he's played for, age and likely ability (granted I've never seen him play) he's the best of the options we've been linked with that are still available IMO (Iversen is probably next best).

Again, that tosspot said we'd overpaid for Szmodics and he was never worth what we paid. He will say whatever he wants to appease himself and the Posh.

Why is everyone complaining? They've just released a new backstage Instagram video...get behind the lads FFS. 🙄

Watching it, when Hedges came off, looks like he was holding his shin and talking to Procter about it. About right.

His end product is wanting is what RF99 has said a number of times and I agree.

I'm hopeful we'd look for another 2 across the front line. I still see both Vale and Leonard going out on loan and we've lost our 2 most experienced players from the front 4 (granted Gally couldn't finish his tea).

That's where I'm at. We have to be at a point where no further outgoings can be sanctioned. Certainly not for any players in and around the first team last season. We now need to add quality and in numbers (minimum 5 imo).

The majority of us know it's not going to be reinvested. But that's not Sammie Szmodics fault.

The anger is one thing, but money grabbing and contract honouring? He's moving up to play in what a lot of fans, pundits and players see as the best league in the world, all after returning 4x what we paid for him. He does his ACL in the next game at Rovers, do you think this fabled £22k week wage remains on the table or the Ipswich offer? It's cut throat and he's doing what's best for him and challenging himself to boot. A Lucash Neill he is not.

How many permanents and what will we spend fee wise before the end of the window? I have it at roughly £17 million brought in and £2 million (max) spent.

I remember the gobshite MacAnthony saying he's never worth 2.5 million. Correct, he's worth closer to 10.

Yeah first thing I thought across both games, his shots a bit weak and he's not overly accurate.

I've seen the Stockport thread, seems a few have mentioned it. You do wonder though if he's more pissed at how he's being treated whilst here? He's been training on his own for some time based on Eustace's comments, yet he's started today and come on in the season curtain raiser, wouldn't expect he'd play any part at all if there'd been a falling out from either side - which begs the question who's told him to train on his own?

He looked pissed off most of the time during most games last season, flapping his arms up and down and pulling his face. Seems that's just Sammie.

At a quick glance, decent pedigree.

Do any of them fill you with confidence? Cos they don't for me.

So is that 5 players + replacements if both of those players leave? I.e. 7 in total?

So the previous plan that was planned, is once again our plan?

I'd blocked that out of my memory...

One of the areas that needed some money spent on it was the keeper. So if this is true it's not before time, but it's something. Here's to hoping he's a Kaminski and not Whalstedt.

It appears Nixon's retweeted one of his own posts from June 27th which said "Charlton after gk...Blackburn also interested" His retweet has the additional comment "struggling to agree terms". So it's a bit ambiguous and he likely could've selected a different related tweet that didn't mention Rovers. But it lines up to being about Begovic and Charlton struggling to agree.

Have we just gone back in time a few weeks and I've missed it? To be fair with the players we've lost (and will still likely leave), that's about right.
