    like all the lads on here i love the club with all my heart, and agree with Bart , better to play a hungry lad, then a money grabber, who blames his agent , how much have we invested in him to get this far and we will get a pittance back

    We don't know anything about it at all really other than Grigg and Donald being coy on Twitter. I imagine it's a work in process because it does sound like we're after him and he's for sale.

    Like you say while Maja remains the main goal scorer by some distance we should play him it'd be daft not to. If he starts pulling the ****e that some players do and refusing to turn up to training etc then **** him but no sign of anything like that.

    Roger Wilde was better , slow and could finish at this level, like Maja , who was pap in the championship, get rid he is detrimental to a great atmosphere.
    Time for him to go,The other 24 players will think he's a ...c@nt.

    He would be sent down the Allan Johnson route for me, Peter Reid was right all day, no one is bigger than the club. They do untold damage, agent sucking tw@t.

    Hmmm, I don't know. Maja doesn't strike me as a gobsh**e, I think he will just quietly get on with the job. However some of his team-mates might be getting pi$$ed off with him. If he can do the job, fine get on with it and at the end of the day we ALL want 3pts.

    Ideally we need a goal scorer in quickly, Maja has had a long time to ponder his future and it looks that he sees it elsewhere. If we play him, and I think we will, get Kimpy on the bench for now, and give a him few camoe's alongside Wyke, who like Watmore is coming back from serious injury problems and is being written off far too quickly imo. A few goals from these two, or others in the squad would ease our fears about Maja leaving, sad though the situation is, the club has done all it can for him, so we, like him maybe need to look elsewhere, the team must always come first, onwards and upwards.

    I must admit I'm dubious about Wyke, I could understand it if he was unfit, heavy touch, rough finishing, but he barely won a header all game and I'm not sure how much that has to do with injuries. I was under the impression we got him for his strength and heading ability and I haven't seen either from him yet.

    Have high hopes for Wyke from his time at Carlisle when he was a regular scorer.
    Could be his injuries have taken a lot out of him but I still feel he will come good for us, same as Watmore fans think these lads can come back from long term injuries get a couple of games under their belts then the goals will follow.
    A bit more patience is required and I agree young Kimpi should be on the bench every week and being given game time regularily.

    Wyke's best in a season is only 15 goals though. With Maja already on 14, we can't really expect Wyke to provide the goals that we'll lose if/win Maja goes.

    Could'nt agree more, the longer he will not sign, move him on asap.
    Just a matter of time.

    Didn't think Wyke was brought in as a 20 goal a season striker but more of a big lad winning balls that others could benefit from.
    we have the wide players that could supply Wyke but it's not gelled so far so as said previously a bit of patience is required.

    Away win

    Dunno why - just feels like its time for a win.

    Hopefully we will get a competent ref for a change

    Should win on paper.

    In reality we'll make it hard for ourselves one way or another.

    I'm expecting a tight win either 1-0 or 2-1 win or a draw.

    Maja should sign or fook aff!!

    We give him a start after Citeh reject him, and this is the loyalty he shows!!

    I want him to sign but if he doesn’t the door should be closed for good - sell or reserves!!

    We have a different dynamic at the club these days. To me if your not on board just move them on. We shouldn't pander to anyone who's not with the 'cause'.

    Start Kimpy tomorrow up front.....nothing ventured, nothing gained. This lad has something about him.
