    Cheers OneLeeds, at least there is someone on here who has the intelligence to talk about football issues these days..

    the words Oneleeds and Intelligence should never be used in the same sentence <laugh>

    Think he will be a good addition for 3 months, typical Warnock type player, if hes does half decent wouldn't suprise me to see him join permo in January, if his fitness stays alright.

    Tonge will be a good addition, he must be wanting to earn a deal with his Stoke contract set to run down.

    Don't Expect Anyone Else

    Warnocks comments regarding Tonge - They suggest to me that his dealings have finished and loan players are only going to come in when there is an injury. There were two we couldn't afford, not Jennas was NW's quote and I doubt it was Dann's, personally I would prefer either of those two over Tonge

    Could be Warnock telling the club concerned that we are not able to meet 100% of wages but are still very interested.

    We have to face the fact that we have some unwanted wage pits in the squad, until we move players on our wage pot will not grow.

    It clear that Bates is not interested in squad investment and has set a pot of cash for Neil.

    In my opinion we should follow Ken's example and keep our wallets in our pockets whilst he does.

    Last count we have a smaller squad than last season and we have already shifted more than we brought in.

    Don't get me wrong I am not justifying this lack of funding.

    We just need to clear some dead wood before we get in some more as Bates clearly is not committed to the club or promotion.

    Current Wage Drains:
    Danny Pugh
    Paul Rachubka
    Leigh Bromby
    Ramón Núñez
    Davide Somma
    Paul Connolly

    Agree with all but Somma, the guy is a goalscorer, and I'd definitely give him a chance after his injury in a front 2. If the injury's ruined him, it's a shame, but oh well. If it hasn't ruined him, we get a very, very good player back. Needs to work on his all round game, but he was a great finisher from what I remember <ok>

    Church? Reading striker, hasn't got a particularly great record in this division though. Scored against us last season mind

    Just s thought - is it worth recalling Rogers? Not seen a great deal of him, but he seems to have a creative spark.

    I would definitely bring him back. By all accounts hasn't done great at Stevenage, but by god do we need some creativity. Can't be any worse than Varney out wide so would be happy to give him a go.

    I think Varney has done alright this season. He needs time but will be a decent addition.

    Yea I suppose I forgot about that, still to me has been a huge let down. Don't think he is good enough to be first team although seems decent in the air. I would more liken him to Becchio than someone that can play out wide
