Summer '24 transfer window

[SourPatch2]

Want us to go full pelt for Tom Cannon in the summer, whether it be permanent or loan. 4th choice at Leicester and hasn't started a league game since January, despite their forwards poor form.

On the bench tonight and I doubt he'll even get on.

They paid £7.5m and it was reported he failed his medical due to scans showing a very serious injury that cannot be repaired, they signed him anyway, not sure we would be the type of club to go ahead with that sort of thing.

Looking at our injury record we’re exactly the type of club to go after him

He was up here last summer, so we definitely spoke with him, not sure if we pulled out or he didn't fancy us

After today's announcement with the kit, I hope we are in for Mats Hummels.

Any thoughts on Alfie May at Charlton as a potential signing? He would fit the remit if we're looking to bring in a bit of experience with Dack and Evans likely leaving.

May is the leagues top scorer (League One) in a struggling Charlton team, has another year left on his contract and could probably be got for a somewhat modest fee considering the player will want the move and the club are going nowhere.

He's a bit of a Vardy in that he got he start in professional football late, was shunted out wide for a few seasons before looking very good as a 9 at Cheltenham and now Charlton.

He scored a belter against us for Cheltenham and played well. No t seen much of him but was impressed with what I saw. Saw him as a 10 more than a 9 though. Either way we need more goals in the side.

31 in July. I’d bet anything the club wouldn’t pay a fee for him and I’d want better tbh. Has he ever kicked a ball above L1 level?

Wonder if we have a look at the Rotherham keeper.

Rated as **** and available for pennies it seems.

Slight change in our approach, good to here, some experience and more robust players and we instantly go into the top ten for me

Dunno if I've read the article wrong but what stood out for me was that "the new head coach adding their thoughts to the mix when they are appointed at the end of the season." Yes I know we need a new head coach but for me it seems that as soon as the season ends, the new coach comes in - unless that's just wishful thinking!

Hallelujah! Maybe they could have relied on the experienced head coaches opinion in the summer, but better late than never. Doesnt need many, but 2 or 3 would make a postive difference.

Aye just 2 or 3, I'd say a CF and CM would do and throw in a dependable backup CB, wouldn't be expensive.

Believe it when I see it. It’s definitely needed, though.

Proof of the pudding and all that....watch this space, another drip feed like the new strips keeping fans informed and motivated, what's not to like.

Think they don’t have a choice it’s been proven we won’t get anyway with a squad of just kids

New merchandising, £10m stadium improvements, recruitment policy meetings ...

... it's almost as if the club had a plan all along

Taking this season as a massive learning curve from top to bottom, you learn so much more when things dont go perfect think we’ll better for it in the long run
