    Unreal we have this 'problem' when you look back only a couple years to the squad in L1....often struggling to want one if them in a position on rather than trying to juggle minutes for 2 (more in squad) outstanding talents.... building ever since KLD came in to be one of the most exciting times ive followed the lads!!

    Sheff Wed fans on twitter in the main seem really keen to sign Poveda and gutted that he's being linked with us, so I take that positively.

    Based of last season's form Poveda is better than Roberts when he's fit. It's the "when he's fit" bit which seems to be the problem

    He didn’t play much I don’t think did he? Only managed a single assist too. Picked up an injury then coincidentally Sheff Wed went on their best run all season when he was out

    I have every belief that by 2028 Ballard will already be in the Prem. I just hope its with us still

    I wouldn’t rule out Roberts being sold with Ba and Poveda competing for the right side slot.

    When you say bought, do you mean purchase, own and operate or simply sign an agreement with?

    That brilliant poster with the info has probably fell foul of the club's tight knit ways. I was shocked to see them so open.

    I'd heard about Poveda about a week ago now, I've not heard that he'd signed, just about our interest. He makes sense as strong competition with Roberts, especially with their respective goal records lol

    I agree, it's obviously better than Donald but also better than Short imo.

    We actually seem to have a plan, in fact lots of plans for different areas of the club.

    As things are progressing we're coming to the stage whereby we're building in cover for any players who move on to better things.

    We're signing good players, extending contracts of players we could easily sell and, I've no doubt, respected enough to have the big clubs loan us players.

    Players clearly want to be here despite us having no money, useless coaches and a director of football who's universally despised <whistle>
