Morgan, a 35 yard screamer from open play.

yep - worth a try imo. Lambert is the sort of striker who can hopefully hold it up and with someone like adam playing just off him, it could be a good partnership.

Murty was v good, and surprised me with his bursts of pace. But i remember when he was at reading, he excelled with a natural right winger in front of him (Glen Little). Lloyd gives us balance there...but he's not going to give us the ability to get in behind teams defenses, which is what we're badly lacking atm.

I wouldn't play in in centre mid, i'd keep morgan and another in there but we could just play him behind the front man in the AMF role IMO. Just my 2 pence anyway.

Yep, just floating in between midfield and attack.

Don't agree tbh. A pacey right-sided midfielder has to be one of our main targets. We need natural width in this team.

...well let's make sure we keep Murty away from him for now

I'm sure we'll give it a good go. We'll have a successful season whatever way you look at it though. (i.e - we'll bloody well win a few games for a change) + if we don't' go up this year, next year we really may have a chance at ''Walking a league''

I can kind of feel for them - we've been in their position for years, losing our better players. It's great to be on the otherside though i must admit. But at the end of the day it's about ambition and money, and thankfully we have both right now.

I agree...but we didn't grab the opportunity then. Alot of really good players would have jumped at the chance to come here in 2005, but a combination of Harry ''i not really be bothered to be here'' redknapp, and Rupert lowe - we missed our chance.

Speaking of Skacel, has he actually found a club yet? For a player who always said ''he can play at the top level'' - there doesn't' seem to have been much interest?

Rasiak is on 10k iirc, but that is near on 18k apparently when you take into account goal bonuses/appearances. You can understand why Lowe wanted him off the wage bill tbf. GB did seem to like doing that...offering a hefty wage and then beefing it up even more with all these additional bonuses. Think you'll find this is a reason players like Euell etc didn't feature at the start of the season, even though they were fit. We just couldn't risk paying the bonuses!

Heard that we had offered him 10k p/w, so i guess that's true. TBH if rasiak is going (which i guess he will now) it's not any additional strain on the wage bill, I'd even suggest he may be cheaper in terms of goals/games bonuses.

I would hazard a guess that at the mo he's too busy - There's some more transfers to complete!

Got a feeling it will exceed that. 12-13k is my prediction.

I think he will. By all means, i don't believe Lambert is the only ''big'' name we'll be signing in the next few weeks. Cortese mentioned ''a few exciting Surprises...'' 1 down...how many more to go?

They were interested, but didn't have the funds unless they sold Alves/Tuncay.

If we get a box to box powerful midfielder next to him - then i completely agree. He can't boss games on his own yet, he needs someone next to him who can do that.

Got my tickets now...can't wait! It's weird feeling this positive at the moment, as we've had so many years of crap...but this club is finally on it's way back.

sorry?

Def. I had the biggest buzz on Saturday pre-game..and i haven't been that exited for aaaages...and unlike usual, when that buzz is evaporated within 10mins of kick off...it's actually still with me now.

Heard some rumors that they're set for admin within the next 48 hours, not sure how true though.

Reports are coming out tonight that deal is off as they cannot match the wage demands - and that they are set for admin within 48 hours. Will watch with interest..

Certainly not as much Pedigree as Eugen bopp
