Aye, he'll do for me. Very similar to Rossco, could quite easily see Roberts, Clarke and Pritchard opening teams up based on his graft. Will be a threat from set pieces as well, looks another unit, like Ballard. Hoy Batth in there and we should get a few goals from them.

Patterson is number 1 a lot of keepers aren't going to come to be a number 2

it's a shame Steve Harper retired.

Just fishing my scarf back out from the down pipe after flushing it down the bog in protest at our crushing 1-1 pre season defeat

Oh ye of little faith!

Canny bit progress over last 24 hours then

Was Simms the “no”?

 

[Hettonista]

I was hoping this thread would keep me informed of the latest transfer news but it's beginning to flounder

Stop carping

Was Simms the “no”?

No the yes. He has been linked. The keeper not. Last min that.

It don’t work like that mate, seen quite a lot of people saying the same thing tbh and it’s nuts, the best striker at the time will get picked!!
Stewart has only been here one season and tbh scored less then Charlie wyke.
Why does everyone think he’s irreplaceable?

Have you watched the games?

Stewart is an absolute centrepiece of the team.

He scores less than Wyke as he isn’t one dimensional. He brings others into games. His touches on have direction. He holds up and can play back to goal. He is 2 footed. He’s also one of the hardest working in the team.

Stewart is a quality player. I’ll say right now he will take to the Championship easily.

I’d be ****ing devastated if we lost him at this point. There isn’t a striker nearly as rounded as him we could get anywhere near at the minute. If we lose him we are gonna be weakened.

For me he is absolutely irreplaceable right now.

Spot on, Stewart is a far better footballer than Wyke

Loan. I can see Broadhead being permanent if his wage demands aren’t excessive.

but they are excessive mate, to much of a risk i think they have decided that already.

I do remember you saying yesterday was the deadline. Shame if so but he’s too injury prone to be offering high wages to.

Definitely progressed sharp

Definitely progressed sharp

Reeled him in pretty quickly if you ask me.

We must be looking at a very small fee for Bass? Maybe Pompey still owe us a few quid for Hume…
