    It's tough because some of the worst teams in the Premiership this season are the likes of Man Utd, Spurs and West Ham, I feel like a lot of these leagues, even Serie A, the bottom half is much more forgiving, there are definitely players in the top half of Serie A and probably even La Liga who are simply not good for the bottom feeders of the Premiership.

    I don't really understand why he's not been signed by anyone yet, København let him go for a loss and he's been brilliant since.

    If we’re selling ourselves on pathway and opportunity then we absolutely can’t be binning off the entire team wholesale. I know it’s important to try to stay up but we have to be mindful of the season after next.

    Knew this is how they'd go about things. Would be a good signing as someone to play the odd game and be more of a dressing room leader but he'd probably have to play 35+ games so I don't think it's a good signing.

    Good player but if they continue to sign over 30s they’ll get over run more often than not pace kills in the championship

    Good player but they keep signing short term options

    They need quite a few players imo to be able to compete in the Championship

    No surprise that they play shocking 'football' under Parkinson

    Not seen it mentioned anywhere but the transfer window closes at 7pm on 1st September.

    Yes that's 7pm, not 11pm. Much better for us wanting sleep :D

    Just had a look at the average age of League One squads as I knew Wrexham had a fair few pensioners already.. they have a 33 man squad with an average age of 28.4 - higher than 91 of the other teams in the football league. Only Mansfield are higher.

    On a different note whilst I was looking up that info stumbled across Jobe being the most valuable player in the championship now as per Transfermarkt <cheers>

    There's a split window as well. Opens pretty soon before the Club World Cup and closes before it starts, then opens again afterwards for the full summer

    Yeh, according to the athletic, only Premier League clubs have the initial window, so presumably not championship clubs.

    June 1st - June 10th (Premier clubs only)
    June 16th - September 1st (everyone)

    ah great, thought it seemed unfair. Although in reality transfers can pretty much happen whenever and they just get registered later.

    Great signing (Cairney) for any Championship club if he still has the legs, when we played them in the cup a couple of seasons ago he had a turn of pace that was clearly a step above most things we see in the Championship.

    I was out for a meal when the ELF rumours were coming in. Apparently watching a YouTube compilation in a restaurant is not appropriate:emoticon-0140-rofl:

    I really would like to tell you it won’t be that bad not knowing what’s happening but I missed the away leg cos I booked tickets to comedy show in November, couldn’t concentrate on anything the whole time, hopefully the end result will be the same!
