Summer '24 transfer window

[makemdan]

thought the first yellow was for kicking the ball away.

Thought the first yellow was harsh. He didn't really kick it with any force and there was a burnley player walking towards the flight of the ball so it was more of a pass to the player. Just my "unbiased " opinion. The second yellow was stupid

 

[John Wick]

Still lots of business to be done. I really want Neil to sign a new deal and that to be announced ASAP. Lots of interest in him, as you would expect.

AA- Will leave.
Benette - Will leave.
Anderson - Will leave.
Rusyn - Very likely
Hemir - Very likely
Pembele - Very Likely

Others in the likely pot but will depend on replacement I would imagine.

I've been told that there were new contracts for both Clarke and Neil on the table.

 

[CR17]

Given the choice, I'd rather keep Ekwah and lose Aouichiche.

I still want us to bring in Simic and Mendy. A DMC replacing AA and a right back replacing Pembele and it'll be a perfect window.

I know we've signed Wilson but I think he's flexible. He could rotate some games with Mundle and some games as a second striker. It's a long season and depth/options is the difference between promotion and not.

Also sounded to me the way Phil Smith was wording it was that Mendy and Simic are alternate options to each other. Wouldn’t get both if that makes sense. But I could be wrong as he did say we want 2 forward but couldn’t specify whether that included a winger too

 

[Weelid85]

I would guess Ekwah starts against Pompey in place of the suspended Dan Neil, would be surprised to see him go now that we’ve raised money from Clarke. Possible tho, particularly if Triantis plays as CDM

I think Browne will cover. Rigg to keep his place.

 

[Weelid85]

I also think Mundle might get caught for a few yellow cards, possibly reds. Seems very quick to react to challenges.

 

[MadMackem77]

I think Browne will cover. Rigg to keep his place.

Browne will step in. Our DCM isn’t a regular DCM role imo. We drop to 442 out of possession it’s only a DCM for quick turnovers when we lose the ball in attack

 

[Stranded in Lugano]

Thought Neil would have learned his lesson from Boro last season and kept his mouth shut

I thought the first booking was dissent however , having watched the highlights, I think it was for kicking the ball away. A Burnley player also got booked for something similar.

Did shouting at the ref 20 yards away get him sent off yesterday?

Silly dissent got him his first yellow

Shame, think there’s a player in there.

 

[Repswick]

Silly dissent got him his first yellow

No, I think it was kicking the ball away. Not very far either. Very harsh

 

[Wayne the Punk]

Silly dissent got him his first yellow

**** reffing, did he do that all the game?

Not a loss for me. Never rated him.

 

[Rocky]

Shame, think there’s a player in there.

Always looks like he could be very good but flatters to deceive more often than not. I don't think he'd be much of a loss tbh

 

[alcoauth]

Not unexpected. Shame because I feel like we really never saw him in full flow.

 

[RedNWhite4Life]

I hadn’t realised Neil had been booked earlier. I thought it was Rigg

I thought it was Jobe so I was as miffed as you at the 2nd yellow.

It was such a blatant yellow as well I thought there's no way he can already have one.

 

[Rade Prica]

Big week this. We have a real chance to capitalise on this start with some quality additions. We have the funds now to go out and build on the positivity surrounding all elements of the club at the moment. Very interested to see how we go about it.

I think we’ll get a couple of really good additions in.

Like him but doesn't fit this system. Has a lot to learn as well, his pure talent will only take him so far.

Hope so mate. Would be mega.
