How good is Ingram? He was kept out ofthe side by a League 1 goalkeeper and a 4/5th choice Premier League goalkeeper. He played less than half of the season and the majority of that was the League 1 goalkeeper was injured!
You must have seen him play since Darlow came in, because up until Darlow arrived Ingram was like a rabbit in the headlights at times

Stats show there’s very little difference in ability between Darlow and Ingram.
Which just shows that stats alone don’t tell you the whole story, we were clearly a better team with Darlow playing.
Was that all down to the change in keeper? Or was it down to defensive improvements implemented by Rosenior? The 4 man defence and midfield were garbage at stopping free shots when Ingram was in goal.
Stats will show a number of players will have had more touches, more completed passes, more tackles, more interceptions, more everything than Haaland. Except for the one that matters for a forward, , BINs.
Not everyone but point taken.
Back to reality..
Gracing the Prem is one thing …staying there quite another but…
Relegation or not…Financial madness not to go for it.
Allam’s GONE.
Alan Nixon reckons Blackburn have joined the race for Darlow and Boro are also interested in James Trafford.
He also reckons Newcastle want £5m for Darlow. He's missed April Fools

Start at £5m and sell at £2.5m/£3m. That plus 20/30k a week wages is exactly why we should move on and spend elsewhere
Didn’t Tan say we are trying for another year loan in his interview?
I wouldn't spend a 7 figure sum on a 32 year old keeper personally. Just seems nuts on top of the big wages.
Ye, article says Boro want a loan too
Yer, that'll probs be what ends up happening, but Newcastle will hold out for a perm as long as possible
Boro seem to be exempt from FFP and have been for years haha
My understanding is they used COVID losses to skirt around recent losses but that's now behind them. Keiran Maguire addressed both their and Stoke's FFP positions on a recent Price of Football ep and sounds like both have used up all their tricks now.
The problem is that the few games Darlow played for us raised his credibility significantly. Before that he was largely the forgotten man.
Easy to say in hindsight but we should have tied him down to a permanent contract early doors, once we saw that he was a good fit for us.
