    Been banging the drum for him since before he went to Ipswich

    I signed him on FM a couple of years ago and he scored bucketloads for us. If this link had happened two years ago I’d have been over the moon.

    I agree.

    I don’t think he’ll be coming here

    Just another 50 pence

    personally I don’t feel we should be looking at the loan market.

    We have 3 strikers, hemir is going to leave, leaving us with 2.

    get an experienced striker, let Rusyn and Mayenda kick on behind him.

    a loan striker seems pointless as they (hopefully) wouldn’t be starting over an experienced head. Unless of course it’s a loan for somebody who is Almost at the level to be getting close to playing for their parent club

    I’d rather us develop our own then push them down the pecking order

    That would be at the stadium of light with Mendy in Hemir’s 9 shirt but no it won’t happen <doh>

    completely agree with this. In my opinion we should ONLY be using the loan market to strengthen the first team. Never for back ups. Pointless.

    Whilst I’d like an experienced striker, I’d be more than happy with Stansfield, Cannon or Archer on loan as the main guy.

    Yes that’s my view. Those 3 are at the level to be playing. Like amad was almost at too. Someone who’s going to start every week for a reason not in the hopes they come good

    Callum Styles - what a pointless signing he was

    Had you ever heard of Mendy before this summer? I hadn’t

    As I've said previously a loan signing wouldn't be bad for us IF he's better than what we have. It then allows us to loan our players out to gain experience of 1st team football. We should be utilising the loan market to benefit us on 2 fronts. Improve our squad and getting our younger players playing men's football also out on loan

    Most wouldn’t have

    Gone are the days of me being obsessed with potential signings like - it’s boring. Like I’ve said previously, it’s clear as day what we need. Just hope the club can provide come the end of the window.

    Nah on a real note thought I just really like what I’ve seen of Mendy and think he’s perfect for what we need and how this squad plays that’s all there is to it and the fact he really wants to come too

    Personally I hope Rusyn leaves and we get someone ready for championship football

    There wouldn’t be many complaints if he was to go.

    Disagree I feel for the lad and want him to get a serious opportunity.

    had tough circumstances coming over last season and averaged a goal contribution every 3 90s

    Amad came on loan as a backup. Worked alright I guess.

    Genuine question - what would represent a ‘serious opportunity’ for Rusyn?

    He’d be starting on Tuesday night for me, no doubt about that
