Not sure why the majority are thinking we’ll be worse than last year We’ve bought 3 outfield players who on paper improve the starting 11 and have shipped out a lot of the underperforming players from last year (mostly loans) The only concern for me is the lack of depth, but I honestly think...

He was offered a week trial by both us & Oxford Only been with us 5 days so has another training session before we decide Don’t think Oxford have offered him a contract

Vigoroux is English so won’t need one Didn’t realise Franco & Zan were exempt from that

If we sign him that’s our visa quota done for this summer Would rather us try and use that for a first team starter

Was involved in 2 good moves but also looked a little lightweight and few poor touches defensively Shame he wasn’t involved in the other pre season games so he had more time to assess. Difficult to judge on 25 minutes

€1.5m

We have also bid for Noel Milleskog According to this article https://fotbolldirekt.se/2024/08/01/avslojar-kan-kopa-loss-noel-milleskog-vill-lagga-stora-pengar

We are looking at both

He was injury prone before we bought him last year so not surprising to hear he may be struggling. Had long spells out of action with Hearts & Preston over past few years Some players bodies just can’t deal with the pressures expected from professional football

In my opinion Mcburnie coming back would be the same scenario we have had with Joe Allen Been injury prone last few years and is on his way down career wise rather than on his way up like he was when last with us Would be the wrong move in my opinion

This was interesting I saw on Twitter that the reason we didn’t sign Gautier Ott was because he couldn’t get a work permit Would suggest we didn’t want to use him as one of our 3 wildcard options maybe because we already plan to allocate those to other targets (and Eom)

Michu was known to Laudrup He wasn’t exactly an unknown he scored 16 goals in the Spanish top division the season before we signed him It was an absolute steal getting him for £2mill.

This suggests we are paying in excess of €2.5million and has agreed a 4 year deal

Linked to Spanish goalkeeper Jhafets Reyes Only 17 years old so may be for the Academy rather than first team 🤔

I wonder what constitutes to football related activities within his job? I thought his role was to support new players coming into the area I.e helping with accommodation, transport, logistics etc I didn’t think these would be football related. I thought betting breaches were only for players...

I reckon if Whittaker stayed with us he wouldn’t have got near that amount of goals/assists this season. He’s at a different environment now which suits him and a style that suits him

Andy Coleman making himself look a bit silly in the directors box if we lose this

He was a million miles away from a top striker during his time with us & I don’t think he would have improved. I remember watching him in a FA cup tie against league two (Oxford maybe?) and he was utter gash. Poor first touch, slow and lightweight As is the case with many, sometimes you just...

Mowbray also steps down temporarily from Blackburn. Doesn’t say for how long
