    I guess Milinkovic was a risky signing, designed to replace Grosicki. So is now surplus to requirements.

    Assuming Grosicki doesn't get injured

    He'll play Todd Kane on the wing. I'd have thought Tyler Hamilton is higher in the pecking order at the moment.

    was Milinkovic a loan?

    City have just stopped following him on Instagram and he's made his Instagram account private.

    He'll be gone in January.

    It’s all very very strange. We paid a decent fee for him, reasonable talent, very thin squad he should be playing every week in theory. All very strange

    Was it a decent fee? Obviously any fee at all is significant by our recent standards, but in Championship terms it's peanuts, and rather disproves the idea that we fought off competition from loads of clubs around Europe to secure this massive talent.

    £200k isn't even a decent League Two fee nowadays.

    Ohhh right. I’m wrong then, must have got him confused with someone else. I thought he was the only player we did pay a decent fee for or am I thinking about the other duff signing from Liverpool? The other masterpiece in transfers from ehab

    We didn't pay a big fee for anyone this season, the biggest was £500k for Burke, which actually looks like money well spent.

    I think Burke and de Wijs have huge potential.
    If Burke fills out he'll be a cracking centre back.

    So how much has he taken us for?

    Presumably we are still paying his wages?




    Head of Recruitment wants shooting over this.

    These heads of recruitment consistently fail. It's such a terrible idea, but for some reason clubs keep trying it.

    I wonder if he actually wanted to join Hearts in the Summer but they couldn’t afford him. It’s a shame it hasn’t worked out, but we don’t want hangers on here in our predicament.

    I believe actually called him a ****ing onion. I was at that game with my girlfriend, a Fowls supporter. Swan had just returned to the game after his life ban for taking bribes was lifted.

    I've always said that the Championship is a better level the SPL, having watched a lot of games of both, this probably proves it.

    Correct he did, although the ****ing was omitted by the press at the time.
