    Harsh that mind, but made me chuckle.

    One thing I would say, he was as pleased as most when we won on at Wembley. Maybe another who did a job behind the scenes.

    Meps will be a squad option

    Hemir built for the Prem lads

    On interest - plenty scouted, interest is more about the approach, an interesting name i heard the other day was James formerly of Birmingham

    Have the same feeling towards Mepham as I do about Doyle potentially signing. I understand it from a squad building perspective but i'd be concerned if they are starting 80% of games

    Yep I'm the same, i like Doyle as feel he's got the upside needed as well as being able to do a job now. I don't want Doyle if we sign Henderson tho as feel they would both be best as back ups. Mepham I'm unsure of, thought 1st half of the season he was class but fell away 2nd half of the season and was on the bench for our last 3 huge games.

    I'm not against him joining but I'd be wanting real genuine quality with our other signings

    Cracking signing, their GK is shocking and that's a massive upgrade

    James formerly of Birmingham is an odd name.

    Like a Brummie Venegoor of Hesselink.

    yeh its purely squad building / continuity.

    also not a bad player to have secured should we be relegated again

    Controversial. I think he’s very poor and flappy

    pulls off some big saves but then has a lot of howlers

    I’d be keeping Meps like.

    We need back up and he is capable of doing ok in the PL, he already has.

    Not his fault they picked up Huijsen and Zabarnyi, I mean ****ing hell they are one to Real the other being linked to super clubs.

    Fair, I think he's a massive upgrade on their current GK and he should only get better

    Had some shocking defenders in front of him at Sheff Wed, intrigued to see how he gets on

    When they say this I always wonder why is it so “complex”

    Hes a bit like bazunu in that if he gets some consistency he could be really good, important next 2 years for him.

    FWIW so glad we aren't in the championship competing for players against parachute clubs and Birmingham and Wrexham ffs.

    And even if we get relegated we'll be one of those parachute clubs!!!
