They may have borrowed. We have too. At the end of the day, all clubs relegated from the PL will have to swallow massive financial cuts, sell players, etc. Then there's players walking on frees or being sold cheap as contracts have run down. Leicester, Leeds and all the other championship big guns will doubtless look at us and assume we'll struggle.

Sensible if some idiot misjudges it and smacks the vehicle at the back of the jam up the arse. Closing the gap doesn't clear the jam clear any quicker.

Cheers. I'd seen that previously. It's the opinion of a podcast dude and says nothing of note over the obvious, ie TV money will drop, they had a big wage bill, will be in trouble 'if' players don't have relegation clauses, etc. It's just the generic stuff that applies to all teams relegated from the PL. I've seen nothing to suggest that Leicester are skint.

I'm not sure that there's too much to read into this at the moment. There'll be so many leavers it'll all change by the time the numbers are finalised I'd imagine. Tella at 11 gives me hope though that he may stay.

What do you base your assumption on? Not willing to overpay does not equate to being skint.

Yep. It's a tough league. As good as yesterday was, to give some perspective, Reading got beat 2 - 0 by league 2 Sutton United last week, and Sutton then got beat 3 - 0 by Millwall and could only draw with Farnborough.

Good point. Not many championship strikers out there who'd improve us. Maybe we'll see big Sam Gallagher back.

Agree. Maybe Borussia Monchenglassback are one of the German clubs after him.

He's only got a year left on his contract so I guess they'll want the cash.

Yep. Awful last season, and mistakes in pre season have resulted in goals. His occasional moments of magic show that he's got potential, but he's just too error prone. We need a consistent keeper, and Baz isn't it unfortunately.

Ross Stewart looks decent imo. Scores with both feet, and his head. Has something about him. I'd be happy with him, and Piroe aside, I can't think of another Championship striker of want us to get. And these reviews of journalists are bloody dull.

The B team lost 4-0 to Leyton Orient in a behind closed doors game today. Can't find the team line ups anywhere. Would be interested to see if any first teamers played.

Yep!! More shit, less farting, and we've got a proper player.

Based on what exactly? Decent 1st season playing regularly last year, and did will for Ireland. He's got something about him imo.

If they have a striker who can find the back of the net, he'll get assists. He's a good player, and I'm not surprised to see him back in the PL. Good luck to the lad.

Disappointed to see him go. There's a great player in there, although I'm not sure where he fits into Martin's style of play so it's understandable.

I agree. I'm quietly hopeful of promotion this season, but far from expectant of it. I think we'll have a slow start, then have more player movements during the latter part of the window, then take time to settle again. By the following season we'd have well and truly settled in the style of play, and hopefully have a much more settled squad.

I reckon we should! One of the older versions of this site did have annual awards if I remember correctly.

I've read some bollox on here over the years, but that's a candidate for a bollox medal.
