I wouldn’t be surprised if another loan signing comes from Leeds in Jan or next summer at an extraordinary loan fee, to cover the cost of this one.
Also expect Kamara to go. Probably on loan too Pompy, can’t see Rangers as they’ve just signed Antman for 6 million who is a good player.
Hopefully we have learnt from Last season's injuries and need back-up in every position for injuries, just look at the options Ipswich have on the wing Jayden, Clarke, Ogbene, chaplin, burns and hutchinson
[QUOTE="DazzaHatty, post: 18553181, member: 1050534" Is Gelhardt instead of Mcburnie? Seems a bit of a coincidence that a deadline is announced for Sunday for Mcburnie to sign but nothing, and on Monday Gelhardt news breaks. Maybe Gelhardt was always an option if Mcburnie didn’t happen?
They'll almost certainly be back down along with the other 2 that went up with them...Competing up there is fast becoming an impossibility. As an aside,I'd welcome Gelhardt back for the season,I was disappointed to see him going back the last one.For a loanee,he put some of our permanents to shame with his attitude,drive and energy. Good player,look forward to seeing him.
got to admit, if we end up with Geldhart and Mcburnie , thats quite impressive under a transfer embargo. i feared the worst when it was all announced.
interested to see what happens with Brentford and Bournemouth this season, both losing a few players, Brentford manager too.....for the good of football one of the promoted teams needs to stay up
to be fair....I'd said the same about Brighton a couple of times when potter then DZ left along with a few players! Odds stacked against the 3 promoted teams but I have been pondering a flutter on that same bet
I think the problem the 3 promoted sides have is that the 17 PL sides have all been there for multiple seasons each now - due to the fact the last 6 promoted sides have all been relegated straight away. Of the 17 there’s no one that managed to just scrape by and haven’t really built (a la us in 2009). The 3 promoted teams are really up against it.
Bang on. He gets a lot of stick on here and I do understand why. He's very laid back and that seems to wind some fans up a bit. But he also contributes quite a bit and will improve by playing alongside the players we have signed. I have my fingers crossed that he stays. That way Belloumi and Millar can be eased in. Can't wait to get this season going
Nice of Leeds to loan us a player with no loan fee or obligation to buy when they could sell him to someone else.
Gelhardt supposedly being pushed to go to Rangers on a permanent and he’s saying no. Apparently he’s been the driving factor behind returning here and has pushed for it to be made to work.
