    Interesting stats, must have just been perception from their fans as their forums were absolutely hammering him for it as a trait.

    Surprised to see West Brom bidding that much for a right winger. They have money problems and have Tom Fellows, unless Fellows is off?

    Fellows surprised me I’d heard a lot of talk about him but last season was easily the worst player I’d seen at the SoL that year

    what a turnaround

    Good point from OTR

    the original journalist who linked ELF to us just retweeted his tweet about us being close to it getting done this morning, rather than mentioning Lille

    Sounds like some rites of passage to enter the Stadium of Light

    I'd maybe skip the Wembley heartbreak mind. ;)
    It's only in part the ability to compete that bothers me, I just feel the whole thing stinks - the State owned clubs, the superstar players, the whole circus really. Lost it's appeal to me a long time ago (whilst we were still in the league and I think it's only gotten worse since then). Maybe if we went up and did a Brighton or a Brentford then I'd enjoy it, sell my soul and jump on board but I'm just not sure.

    The only one I could maybe see leaving is Neil, and even then it would take a huge offer for the club to sell him

    We have money from the Clarke deal so don't need to sell to bring in a player and I get the why would he leave roma to sit on our bench. Time will tell if that'll be the case or not. We needed another CM and we are getting a really talented one, that's only a good thing imo

    If a player does leave its not because we've sign Le Fee, it's because we've had a really good offer on the table for one of our players

    Jobe is linked with Palace, they wanted him in the summer and the club & player both said no - can't see why it would change now when we are competing for the title

    Rigg had some huge offers in the summer and said no, again don't see why he would leave now

    Fair enough mate

    I would rather someone who could really push jobe Rigg neil on to be even better, this Lad could be that one

    I get the stuff about the PL, look at Southampton this season- but I also trust our owner KS and SH to help us kick on with we do go up

    To be fair those numbers average out at between 3 and 4 subs per game which, in the era of 5 potential subs, is probably seen as a bit conservative by fans, especially as there will have been games where he made less than that. The fact that the numbers were at the mid-to-higher end of the league perhaps suggests that being conservative with subs is a Ligue 1 thing rather than a Le Bris thing. I guess we'll find out soon enough
