    Ah. Thought NaNa was one of ours as we had a Delaney too. Was a reasonable full-back but went on to have a good Prem career at centre-half.

    In a lot of ways Micheal Turner was a better player than Maguire for us. Defending wise anyway.

    Concerning Ingram, a Dramas-supporting pal says they have a younger player, on less money. All down to FFP as they owe the FA £22 million.

    (Dunno if that's so...)

    Wan-Bissaka to Manchester United agreed. It says much about 1) his talent/potential and 2) #MUFC's awfulness in the transfer market that £45m (potentially rising to £50m) for an uncapped 21-year-old full-back looks like the best deal they've done in ages.

    Hull City are one of a number of clubs to have shown an interest in highly-rated Scottish striker Lawrence Shankland, according to The Scottish Sun.

    The 23-year-old scored 34 goals for Scottish Championship side Ayr United last season and is now a free agent after his contract expired this month.
    With Fraizer Campbell’s contract set to expire at the end of this week, Nouha Dicko is the only recognised senior forward in Grant McCann’s squad.

    However, the Tigers face strong competition with Dundee United thought to have put a contract offer forward after failing to sign the striker last summer.

    The Terrors missed the opportunity to gain promotion back to the Scottish Premier League after a play-off defeat to St. Mirren. This could prove costly if Shankland wants to test himself at a higher level with Celtic and Rangers also tracking the talented youngster.

    League One side Sunderland have also been heavily linked with signing the forward. Current Black Cats manager Jack Ross twice had Shankland on-loan when he was in-charge at St Mirren and is thought to be keen on a third reunion.

    The Tigers are no strangers when it comes to tracking players in Scotland. Aberdeen defender Scott McKenna was a well-known target of Nigel Adkins with City having three bids rejected in the January transfer window of 2018.

    City’s Head of Recruitment Lee Darnbrough also has strong connections to Scotland, regularly taking in games north of the border.

    Earlier this month, the Daily Record reported that Darnbrough was a big fan of Kilmarnock left-back Greg Taylor, who is a target of both Celtic and Rangers.

    Darnbrough is said to have watched the defender, who made his Scotland debut in a 3-0 defeat to Belgium two weeks ago, on several occasions last season but City’s valuation of £400,000 may not meet his club’s asking price.

    I'm not gonna judge Ingram until I've actually seen him play in our team. Also, he's only the third GK in the club - not sure why all this 'team full of keepers' stuff is banding about, most teams have at least three goalies. I would like to hope that Long is first choice, and that Ingram is here as cover, but we won't know for a while.

    As a squad member, as long as his attitude is decent, having him in is only a good thing imo.

    I recall Ingram playing for York City in goal. Is it the same one?

    Barnsley - 4
    Birmingham - 4
    Blackburn - 3
    Brentford - 3
    Bristol City - 6
    Cardiff - 3
    Charlton - 2
    Derby - 4
    Fulham - 2
    Huddersfield - 3
    Hull City - 3
    Leeds United - 4
    Luton Town - 3
    Middlesbrough - 2
    Millwall - 2
    Notts Forest - 4
    Preston - 5
    DQPR - 5
    Reading - 8
    Sheff Wed - 3
    Stoke - 3
    Swansea - 3
    West Brom - 3
    Wigan - 2

    Reading 8? <yikes> They have almost as many keepers as we have first team players.

    Aston Villa have had a £12m bid rejected for Bristol City defender Adam Webster.

    Bristol City have come out and said they want at least £30m.

    They're not loaning him back to Leeds, they're signing him to play him.

    And Sunderland too IIRC?
    That Ingram would be around retirement age though.

    If we'd taken the "ludicrous" offer from Liverpool, I firmly believe that Turner would've had a much more successful career. Surrounded by better players and coaches he'd have done well. At a time when Upson was getting an England call up, Turner would've got selected I'm sure.
