    Me too <ok>
    Don't suppose you remember the name of an ex-burger place half way between Tesco and the Waffle House, on the same side of the street? Almost next to Refreshers pub, as I recall?

    Twitter ITK (who has been fairly reliable) has said tonight that "the club think they are up, Premier league recruitment has started".

    Reading between the lines that would suggest deals agreed, money committed, but it still feels early for that. Still, being able to make that the primary focus in March is definitely a bonus.

    Yes, unlike when you get there via the playoffs you can focus all the energy early onto plan A of recruitment

    We would be more attractive to players wanting a year of Premier League football too. <whistle>

    Presumably we start with spending around £12m on Gibson and Giannoulis (possibly another £6m Quintilla as well). Then it's working out the 25 player limit and how much more we can spend.

    Stories are emerging, one in the EDP, that we have contacted Spurs to begin discussions about re-signing Skipp for next season. But a lot of water will flow under a lot of bridges before any final decision is made I would guess.

    A widely accepted rule of thumb regarding past tense usage is:
    "Shined" if it has an object, "shone" if it doesn't. So "The horse brasses shone" but "the groom shined the horse brasses".

    Have to agree with Superman. You don’t want to change a winning system and Skipp has been superb, but every time I have watched Sorensen he has looked silky on the ball and he seems to offer more going forward.

    Carlton Morris transfer to Barnsley seems to be going well for the lad. Played 13 (not all starts) scored 5 with 2 assists.

    German defender rumour with another Paderborn connection - Sebastian Schonlau.
    26 year old, right-footed CB. 6' 2" if height's your bag.
    Out of contract this summer.

    Has also played at DM. We could do with a right-footed, ball-playing CB with dependable distribution.

    Good point. Don't know. Doubt he's a full international

    Are the rules the same in the EPL as in the EFL?
