Sounds like it's Archer the Father, Archer the son, and Archer the holy spirit then. As for the Tall One, I suspect he's not allowed to play because he's shit. I think we may have lost sight of that. But in fairness he is a different style of shit to the rest, and for that reason worth a go from time to time (in my book).

Certainly GK wise.

Best bar none, if he doesn't spend too long in the treatment room. Or does that only apply to forwards ?

Being greedy but where's the CF ???

Hope so.

Yes, seems an excellent signing. Credit where it's due.

FUCK !!!! Can only mean one thing - Terry Hurlock is coming out of retirement.

Thought it was fairly easy "to be out of favour at West Ham".

Hope so

Bastard of a journey midweek. Wycombe away would be a decent away fixture (for a ground I’ve not been to before),

Really ? Pathetic and shameful if true. Another ridiculous advantage to those with the biggest squads. Part of the excitement of any cup is when some of the big guns go out and the draw opens up for smaller clubs in lower divisions.

Hope RM’s joy at this lasts longer than Ralph’s did re Gakpo. The noises and indications are good, but always fear the possibility of a Wolves counter offer. Believe it and celebrate when it’s announced.

Glad we’re not Ipswich. Tonight anyway

He looked useful when we played there in April, not outstanding by any means but certainly had something about him.

Trouble here is that Juventus know very well how these “options” work.

I thought Fernandes was more of a central MF. Aribo I think we know isn’t up to EPL standard other than an occasional stand in, so I wouldn’t lose any sleep about him being displaced

Yeh, always thought he was a bit flakey to be honest

Certainly sounds a better pedigree

Providing it doesn’t turn in to Orsic MkII

Unless we buy him. Which seems pretty pointless to me (loan or buy). Isn't he another wide player with pace ?

West Ham away. I don't recall him causing al sorts of problems, but certainly gave their defence something to think about, and he did hit the bar (think their GK tipped it on to the bar)

Can’t criticise SR for their willingness to invest, but they clearly need to put in place better people to identify the targets and complete the deals.

This is the crux of it for me, hampered by having little £ we don’t spend what we have wisely. The Fernandes signing I’d give some leeway on and reserve judgment as it does seem a player with potential from everything I’ve read. Archer and Alberto if it happens defy belief.

Makes the suggestion of Josh Sargeant on another thread more appealing.
