For starters: OMB saying Tovide might well be off to Reading and if it happened assume we would be entitled to a fee? Swindon fans expecting Garner and his coach's to leave for Charlton anytime soon. | | | | |

TS yes. He was the guy who scored 35 goals in 73 appearances for Barrow and then went on a big money transfer to Stockport and then only scored 6 goals in 31 appearances. 6ft 4ins tall and can score with both feet. Rochdale will need to get the best out of him. I am buzzing tonight with our transfer dealings today. Up the U's | |

Bit of a comedown for Alex. Would have thought he could have done better. | | | |

Possibly Forster-Caskey from Charlton Providing the deal sheet is completed then a deal can be done up until 1 in the morning. Up the U's [Post edited 1 Sep 2022 21:19]

That's all folks By my reckoning that is a squad of 31 players all who could realistically play. Our strongest midfield line up for years and a strong overall side. Bring on the Monkey Hangers. Up the U's | |

Season 2022/23 on 08:50 - Sep 2 with 1932 views | thrillseeker | I think it says a lot that Chilvers is still with us - no rumoured bids for him There is a lot of hype with NC but this season he has not been as consistent or as good as last season. He needs to forget the hype and return to playing football to obtain that move that has previously been forecast. Now transfer window has closed he can no fully concentrate on football without distraction. | | | |
Season 2022/23 on 12:49 - Sep 6 with 1808 views | gerry_us | Pity we missed out on signing Erling Haaland and lost him to Man City. Ten goals in six matches in the Prem. How many would he have scored for us in Div.2? Obviously Chairman would not sign the cheque. | | | |

He'll probably score more in 38 league matches than our whole team manages in 46! The scary, and absurd, thing is that our whole squad wage bill for the year could probably only pay him for a few months! | |

Reportedly on £375,000 a week (basic, before bonuses!). I make that £19.5m pa, £1.625m per calendar month. On that basis I'm not sure we could even afford him for a whole month. | |

Season 2022/23 on 08:22 - Sep 7 with 1723 views | bwildered | On a recent programme featuring Crystal Palace Academy players, coaches asked the youths regards future earnings. Most stated they wanted to buy parents their houses and have a flashy car, but no reaction when coaches said if you fail to make PL, might only earn 80k playing in L2. Wonder what coaching staff tell our youths who fail to make it ? Perhaps a Bonne or Lapido story to soften the blow ? | |

Leaves us short of cover at right back but presumably explains why he tried Ashley there on Tuesday. | | | |

I thought Ashley looked far more comfortable at full back than he ever has in midfield. I also thought Coxe should have been converted into a winger as he always looked defensively vulnerable at full back. Nouble should only play wide, and Sears warm the bench. WB and Humes claimed to know better than me. However, Bloomfield seems to be on my wavelength………and as the only winner in consecutive years of the HGPL prediction league I have applied to become his assistant should Durham Exile decline his offer. | | | |
