Looking forward to seeing him do well, impress other clubs, receive a big transfer fee from a top 4 club for him that fulfils our and his plans, and acts as yet another example of our appeal to other potential signings. Um... assuming he does sign. 😊

I noticed Darren Kenton in that surprisingly decent, and clearly deceptive, squad line up. Another one I thought would be a bargain (got him on a free maybe). Maybe part of the lingering disappointment, is the number of these players I agreed with us getting. 😊

Yeah, the waves of capitulation sweeping through the team in various matches is how I remember that season. Prutton was one of a number of players you realised wouldn't stand up and be counted, which was really disappointing to see. I was really pleased when we signed him. He was one of a number of highly rated Forest players at the time. I thought Fox did fine, helping us get to a level where his ability had reached its limit and we had move on. No shame at all in that. And yeah, he showed more spirit than most of that relegation squad combined.

At 26, and with us looking for resale value in our aquisitions, we'd have to be getting a good deal to take him. That's not really what Levy's known for. Even if we got a decent deal, with him being contracted until 2023 (or 2024 in some headlines, our scouts must think there's a lot of untapped potential there if we were to go for him.

What does it say about the riches of the Premier League owners, when we're being outbid for clubs rather than players now. 🙂

I don't expect massive changes this summer. While we may be able to buy before getting an outgoing transfer over the line, I doubt that it would apply to lots of transfers. We're not likely to be bringing in 5 players before selling 1 on. On the plus side, it means that we won't get stuck with a large suqad, draining resources. And that bit of flexibility we do have means we won't miss out on key choices, while waiting for an outgoing deal to be finalised.

"...but at the end of the day it’s about how much we want it," said Simeu, reminding me of some recent posts. 🙂 Good to see him embrace the opportunity and that he's learning while getting lots of first team minutes. Lets hope he pushes on for us when he returns.

I'm sure there will be twists and turns. But hopefully, both ourselves and Oxford can beat Ipswich to give us as much of a chance as possible. Tense stuff.

They wouldn't be the first set of football fans with great expectations. 😊

That reads as though there were some attitude issues. Do we know that's the case and that it wasn't just a move to give him regular first team football?

That's no giraffe. That's Peter Crouch.

John Charles?

I made sure to pick up the Blue Rank Xerox replica when they were around, as it's also my favourite away kit.

I really like that one.

One of my favourite kits.

Perhaps a variation on the limited edition rainbow kit then?
