I'd love the outcome of Thursdays meeting to be 5 bids in for players.

Not going to happen but it would definatley change the somber mood around here.

5 could happen if you put loans in there as well. Plus we wouldnt get all the players we bid for anyway so I dont see why thats a crazy number.

5 that day or the day after haha


It would show a big statement of intent though.

Problem is that we are at some point inevtiably going to sign multiple players and I would say that was a fact. So this prlongment just prevents the new players building up fitness, settling in the area and geling with their teamates.

I figured you meant that 5 would be discussed that day and bids would come because of it. 5 that day or the day after wont happen but we will be putting bids in or at least making calls for 5 players that are discussed in that meeting.
 
I'd rather have anyone but McGregor as our number 1 but Butland is only just now going to get his chance as Stoke number 1 two years after signing him in 2013 for £3.3 million so don't be too sure that he is a shoe in for number 1 keeper.
To be fair Butland has had Begovic and Sørensen ahead of him - both decent keepers.
 
I seem to remember that there was some discussion on this bloke Sandro Wagner but I couldn't find the posts. I read today that Bruce had approached his Bundesliga Club with a view to signing this 6 feet 5 inch "Der Esel" (The Donkey) from the "Proschwitz School for Strikers" having amassed a total of 2 goals from 40 appearances.
I know I harp on about strikers (y'know, a forward who regularly puts the ball in the back of the opposition's net - we haven't had one for some time) but in the name of Jesus H F-Bombing Christ please tell me that this isn't true!

OK I'll tell you it isn't true, just to make you feel happy. Now go walkabout to Wagga Wagga.
 
Now Sydney, you know thats a load of bollocks you wrote, because if you took any notice of the Essendon Drug scandal that has been dragging on for 3 years now you would have noticed that the issue is affecting the players in the team, that much so, that the captain Jobe Watson thought about giving the game away.
You also might have noticed that the team aren't performing anywhere near their capabilities

They're a **** side with a terrible coach. They coped fine last year with Bomber at the helm.

35 games from the bench, so if he only got a few minutes in each of them, then 2 in 5 isn't too bad. I suppose!!
 
Southend fan in peace. We've been expecting Bentley to go to a bigger club for some time now. Obviously as a club without the proverbial pot to.............we want as much money as possible for young Daniel. What we don't want for him is to go to a club and then warm the bench. What he needs to improve is competitive games. Will he get those at Hull?

Nevermind Daniel Bentley can we have Browny back please

Following on from mauled1904, he played 272 minutes last season in 15 games. That is just over 18.1 minutes per appearance on average, harsh to judge him on this alone. However even in Bunesliga 2, he was never prolific.
 
There are 183 pages of posts 'DH' and I couldn't go through all of them.
I read earlier today that Bruce appeared to be interested and whereas I couldn't possibly see it myself I asked if there was any truth in the rumour.

He was referring to Patty's whinge, not your post.
