    I think we played Everton and Newcastle at exactly the right time. We can praise the four points but was it because we were good or that they were poor ?
    We might get better but so will every other side that we play.
    The 49r's said they had a plan, if the plan was freebies and the walking wounded they better have another plan for the Championship next season.

    Right now I would recall Gelhardt as he scores goals and can play right wing and at ten. We need someone creative what do we have to lose not going to be long before it becomes clear we need creativity and assists. There will be no recall option though as the 49ers are shyt at contracts

    You really think Leeds would put in a recall clause :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    I guess none of us knows what really went on... but it looked to me like, the noises from Spurs suggested he was going to stay and fight for his place... so then we started looking for alternatives. Only for him to come available after we got one.

    If you’re looking for positives, Newcastle might have played us at the right time with Tanaka and Ampadu injured and Okafor and DCL seriously lacking match fitness

    I think Farke has been pleased with Harrison’s form and sees him, Gnonto and Okafor as his options. Okafor being able to play centrally ticks more boxes for DF

    Okafor needs to replace the 9 goals and many assists of Solomon, James scored quite few too and needs him to repeat, who is going to replace the Aaronson goals? We also need Willie to chip in with his goals and Ramazani’s, Bogle needs to do it again and Gudmundson needs to replace Firpo’s. Can DCL, Piroe and Nmecha step up to score Piroe’s 19 between themselves. We need goals to stay up

    last season Ipswich scored 36 goals and were relegated, conceding 87, so far in 3 games we have scored 1 goal and conceded 5. Luckily the 49ers helped us out in the transfer window by making it plain we have to rely on what we have. Thanks Marathe you dick

    All of the goals you mentioned were in the championship with nothing to suggest any of those same players could/would replicate that in the prem. We’ve conceded five but all in the same game, two out of three have been clean sheets and that ain’t bad as Meatloaf once said <cheers>

    Once the transfer window closes, you can't recall any player on loan, until the next transfer window opens.

    Whilst there may be some extraordinary circumstances that the FA would allow it to happen, I don't think a club's inability to sign players would be one of the exceptions.
