They'll have a good season - got lots of momentum. Reckon they'll finish top half - but miss out on the playoffs - maybe 8th or so
Is that permanent or loan? Have we got his wages off the books - or are we still paying a chunk of them?
We've loaned him out by all accounts. That post is deceptive, the figure at the bottom is his supposed market value as opposed to a transfer fee.
I agree in general, if they sign a player he is in top 2 to leave, but currently they are below limit, as I said, limit is 12+2, not 12. I think Saul from Atletico agreed on joining them but gave up in last second, so currently they are still below limit.
I take it the new kits socks still haven’t arrived and we’re still using last season’s third kit socks.
Alfie Jones completes move to Boro for undisclosed amount, it is on the official X feed now. Hopefully Acun has enough cash to pay the wages next week now.
not followed their signings to be fair, but its a hell of a jump from where they have come from in such a short space remember when we shot up from league two straight through league one, and the championship was a slog the first season i would wager on them finishing nearer the bottom then the top , though i should probably check the signings before i place that bet...haha
A bucket load of momentum and some really shrewd signings. Windass, Hardie & O'Brien are 3 really good signings at this level.
They’ve not gone completely mad with their signings though. Some very astute ones. Hardie and Windass aren’t flashy signings but they’re proven in the Championship and didn’t cost a whole lot, especially compared to some of the transfer fees we’ve spent on absolute dross in the last few years. I also think Parkinson is an underrated coach. His reputation isn’t great around our parts but in hindsight, I think his approach at City had good intentions but he lacked the tact to implement his methods in a way the players would go along with. A lot of what he tried to do at City nearly 20 years ago is standard practice in modern coaching now but he just couldn’t convince the players at the time. I think he’s learned a lot since then that communicating his methods and ideas is just as important as the actual methods and ideas. I think Wrexham will do alright and I think they’ll finish higher than us.
