    Also noticed Nixon talking about Ince and Phillips from Blackpool, someone asked him, apparently it's doubtful because Blackpool will be asking for huge money and Cortese doesn't want to overspend.

    I'd be a little hacked off if I was Sharp or Lee

    Ryo Miyaichi? A tricky, direct winger. Could definitely see that, Tadanari could help him settle too.

    I'm sure they're well aware of the situation with transfers, and they might even be relishing the challenge of making things difficult for Adkins...

    Very true, I'm sure it'll spur them on.

    Adkins will most probably say no ones place is guaranteed.

    I can't see Barnard featuring so that only leaves Rickie, Sharp and Lee. Most sides have at least four out and out strikers so it was always going to be a position we would strengthen, Sharp and Lee would know this.

    Lol! Not starting just stating a fact! Plus he's the only player to say this publically and he's hardly our superstar.

    He certainly was in the run-in.

    Alex, if I didn't know better, I'd swear you had some kind of dislike for Billy Sharp, but that can't be true! If you did, surely you'd mention it every time his name comes up on here?

    Ohhh wait, you do.

    I was responding to the part of him saying we need to sign better players to stay up.

    He joined us when we were practically up anyway I wonder did he keep saying that in the press at Doncaster?

    I don't hate him he proved me wrong towards the end of the season and I was glad for him!

    But unless he gets in a serious fitness regime over the summer he will be ineffective against Premier League defenders.

    He should be looking at himself rather than others.

    Funny, I thought he joined in the period where we struggled and were overtaken by West Ham and teams below were catching us up.

    He's a lot fitter than everyone thinks he is.

    He's lost a bit of weight since signing.

    Look at Tevez though, he's pretty big now, not skinny like he was...

    Sharp scored some vital goals in the run-in, but he strikes me as the least likely (excepting Barnard who isn't going to get a look in) to be able to make the step up.
