I think there's a clear signal here that THB is off. Lots of smoke.

He's been out injured...

Welcome to the Championship wolves. I expect it won't be as easy for them as some of their fans expected. Never play Armstrong up front on his own you lunatics.

Yes because he is still returning from injury and we may not want to risk bin from the start.

I expect he won't even be on the bench. Team imo will be Peretz Bree THB Stephens Manning Fellows Downes Bragg Scienza Dobbin Larin I'd like Azaz to start but I reckon he's on the bench.

You're extrapolating a lot from one lacklustre training session where he was likely returning from injury.

Agreed you'd think the club would have been keen to release the fact that he never directly contacted salt himself before now. Shaping the narrative is important.

I'd be surprised if THB would want to go to hull given there's a fair chance we will swap places with them next year.

I expect it's too late but Jordan James would arguably be an upgrade...

Agreed. Branfoot was painfully limited and how he treated mlt was unforgivable but he was also attempting a pragmatic style in order to stay up. In many ways the opposite of Martin.

I'd have gone to this for £15. For £27 they can fuck off.

Off to Watford isn't he?

You naive fools! (Leicester should still win the league BTW but you couldn't pay me to watch that football again.)

Adam Blackmore has been alluding to him going all summer. If you listen to Adam and Joe there is a lot of suggestions that he will be off.

Not sure he stated the names explicitly but I believe what he said was that those who had just joined last summer would not be free to leave with the implication being that those who have been here longer would be free to go if we received an acceptable offer. That was widely interpreted to be THB and Charles which I think is likely true. Whether that will still be the case with maybe a week of the window left I don't know. I hope not!

And neither should they because that would be incredibly foolish

What is he supposed to say? He's obviously for sale for the right price, it's just if anyone is prepared to pay what we would want. I don't think it's a coincidence that the media interviews this summer have been from Stephens, Manning, Larin and Downes.

Blackburn, Sheffield United, Birmingham, Bolton, Cardiff, Derby, Charlton, Boro, Norwich, Watford, West Brom...

Adam Blackmore has been clear all summer that we won't be standing in the way of the players who have been here longer than a season (Charles and THB.) I do think he will go but I was hoping it might be less likely given it's so close to the end of the window. Tbh I'd have preferred him to go in the first few weeks if he's off.

I don't disagree but we could just say you can go with our blessing next season if we fail to go up.

I'm holding Dragan to what he said. As strong or stronger than last year. If Mubama reaches his potential then arguably we are at least as strong in that position because he may have better availability than Stewart. We are undeniably weaker in midfield so if he wants to argue that his promise has been fulfilled then we have to make a decent midfield signing.

I hope you're right because if it was a trial it was one he failed comprehensively!

This Mubama hasn't come in to be third choice and play maybe ten games this year. We aren't signing Vipotnik.

We aren't signing another striker mate unless archer, bbd and downs goes. We certainly won't be spending any cash like that either.

You really need to quote the correct people in your replies so it is clear what you mean.
