Give it to Ron

5m at best I think and won’t be many willing to pay that up front. That deal from Vasco is a joke who would fall for that he would play 59% and “injured”.

Can’t argue with your SR comments because that’s how I feel too. Nothing learnt and we are putting all our eggs in the basket of Wilcox who has only looked after academy level that’s my concern as well but we will see. Next month with squad will tell. I like the recruitment of Darren Mowbray good record

Champ’ away allocations 23/24 Bham 2250 Bburn 7500 Bristol C 3000 CCFC 2200 Hudd 2300 Hull 2000 Ipsw 2100 Leeds 2500 Leic 3000 Boro 2000 Mill 3000 Nwich 2000 Plym 1500 PNE 5800 QPR 3000 Rham 2300 Sheff W 3500 Southmpton 3000 Stoke 2600 Sun 2500 Swansea 2000 Watford 2000 WBA 2000

So by your logic we have a manager that gets promoted but has failed before once we get there? So do we sack him then? At least with Martin he has a clean slate hopefully this will work. It’s all down to how we recruit isn’t it who stays and who goes that’s my biggest concern shifting the shite we have for fees loans out are useless for us.

Nope just I don’t think he would be a fit here at all . At least it’s not Smith who I don’t rate at all. Some managers just click look at Howe I never saw that working after Burnley. Farke just doesn’t inspire me a bit like Martin but it’s done now so will just get on with it but then again nor did Strachan look how great that was.

Think Bullshitter is more appropriate

There is no way anyone will pay £52m but think a few would be interested about £30m plus add ons

Where? Not prone to exaggeration much are you!

So why did Norwich sack him?

Leicester and Leeds fans I know saying exactly same about their choices too. All agree Lampard/Gerrard are to be avoided . Leeds looking at Farke who I am unconvinced by.

I just want to see more than 2 wins at home for a start

Not compared to last year there is no top 4 Prem rich Arab owned clubs we can’t compete with. We just need a decent manager, tactics, board, owners and squad …simple

So have we 😉

Last time I did Wednesday away the keeper got a header equaliser in injury time

Fireman Sam put out a tweet yesterday which was later rubbished. Russell Martin's move to #SaintsFC is being held up due to boardroom doubts. Amongst others, Rasmus Ankersen believes a more proven option, such as former #afcb and #ffc boss Scott Parker, could be required to "bounce back" at the first attempt. Move in doubt. Should only listen to well known ITK sources Pugh, Pugh, Barney Mcgrew , Cuthbert , Dibble and Grubb.

I get that totally and feel same but I am trying to be optimistic that no-one could repeat last seasons clusterfuck……I didn’t really say that did I? What really worries me is we need a fast start and clubs won’t be jumping to sign our lot Lavia a side. I can see a lot of loans that don’t help at all as we need the money to replace the terrible squad we have even though relegated . Plus vast drop in what we expect to get.

Well they can’t can they as not officially employed yet but does anyone really believe they are not preparing?

Random tweet Not claiming to be in the know or anything like that, but have been told by someone there, Russell Martin is at Staplewood this eve, hopefully doing his Media bits for tomorrow. #saintsfc

Depends on first friendly he will have been in charge for 2 weeks by then.

Exactly why I am saying it should be soon if it’s happening.

It has to really because if we are also taking the back room staff they have a lot of recruiting to do in short time. Player’s return soon

Relegation and he is 19

This will come to a head soon when Swansea appoint Duff

So let me get this right we sell players but don’t get the money for a number of years but we buy them and pay now? Do you think Lavia will play in Championship think you are deluded but knew that from your Adkin’s rants.

Not it means no-one has agreed to pay his 52m fee yet. At moment he is captain so you have him modelling it ! This means nothing and when in last week we drop his fee to 20m and sell him this will all be what it is nothing.
