    Yeah. I’d perhaps prefer an old warhorse on loan or a short term deal, but we basically just need another body for 20 games. We’ve got 4 suitable strikers already on the books for a champ run next season and if we make it to the prem we need the flexibility to do much better than the names we’ve been linked with to date. Another one to add to the mix for the run-in and on we go.

    Yeah wasn't it said when he got into the first team he was only there due to his own desire to stay as them muppets were trying to sell him but he refused to go?

    Lad otr saying deal done for Watson. Pretty sure he gets the odd bit of info.

    IF true, good luck to the lad hope he develops into the player we all think he can be

    Hopefully means we have something lined up then

    Can't see us selling without having another option coming in

    As of yesterday, from the club it was just agent and journo influence.
    He is still injured and as of yesterday it was a no go.
    What could possibly have changed KS mind over night.

    He just isn't going to sign a new deal. One thing the club and speakman are very good at is protecting the asset.

    I don’t believe Watson is done. News this morning was of a bidding war. I’d believe it’s a “done deal” in that he’s definitely going. But don’t think it will be “done” yet.

    I think that makes sense

    His movement is also really good. After his debut in a cup game a couple of years ago I’ve watched his development. He is an intelligent player, great technique and good pace and physicality. Can’t see what’s not to like.

    Defo feels like we’ve switched from a versatile forward to a CF & a winger, and made Isidor perm to enable it, which suggest there’s an unknown quality winger target yet to leak

    If Watson has gone wouldn’t be surprised if the fee is undisclosed on our request to stop us having our pants pulled down by other clubs

    I'm sure we have it all in hand, the club is too professional to get caught on the hop

    I don't have a dig, I say it as I see it.
    I know if SD did not buy us we were in big trouble, so believe it or not, your choice.
    Loads know the truth, some accept it some don't.
