O'Mahony is an obvious target for criticism. Just not on the same wavelength, not entirely sure what he gives to the side. It's not even like he could be a goal poacher type player as he's rarely in a position to feed off mistakes etc in the penalty area. I am less certain he will come good. MOM ju...

We seem a bit obsessed by ‘loaning players out’. Do L1 clubs really do this a lot? Thinking back a decade or so I can only think of Kelly, Tshbola and Dorsett who ‘benefitted’ from a loan from us anyway and none have exactly pulled up trees as their career has progressed. Loaning Stickland to a L2 ...

This sounds a bit like O'Connor might be more broken than we realise?

Would've said we needed someone with a bit more pace if we were going to sign another CB, and Williams ain't that.

Josh Bowler is the new Pedro Mendes.

Wouldn't be us if someone wasn't broken. Presumably then it'll be Burns and Stickland at CB, w/ Jacob and Abrefa at WBs. Given that there's not much pace there i'd like to see them sitting deeper and absolutely not see Wing getting caught behind the LWB again.

tbf Jahmari's still only 21 but, given the rate he's been getting through NL clubs, his attitude must be pretty suspect...

Puscas vs. Cardiff and Clarke vs. Brum, two flashes in the pan.

One thing that I am wondering is - why are Hull willing to let him come out on loan? Given that their management is changing yet again, and they are reportedly restricted on bringing in new players, you'd think that they'd want to assess what they have until later in the transfer window.... Because...

All the CBs we're linked with are 6ft4+. Be nice to have some proper height in the team. Hopefully not at the expense of pace at the back Teams like Stockport, Blackpool and Lincoln bullied us last season; it's clear physicality is an area trying to be addressed. O'Connor is "hard as nails&quo...

They're an almost annoyingly sane and measured bunch: "Odd game. We didn’t play well and I thought Reading were the best team we have played at home this season but had enough good chances to get a draw. Poku should have scored at least 2 the second half. Yet another shit ref although not the r...

Weird timing, and can't wrap my head around where this means the takeover is. Last year of contract or not, pushing for the move or not, this will presumably still have been Dai authorising the transfer. Wonder what the prospective new owners think of it all...

Just home. Bar the 10 minutes after the second goal (and WiFi being hooked) that was as comfortable a home win as we've seen for a long time. Too many of those sorts of games have got away from us in recent years, from what should have been winning positions. But what i'm really liking from what I'v...

Pete O'Rourke (SportsPeteO) from FootyInsider is saying Mola was offered a deal and that the prospective new owners changed the terms leading to talks stalling and him leaving - putting 'a host of Championship clubs on alert'. Pete O'Rourke @SportsPeteO A host of Championship clubs are on alert for ...

Surprised but not particularly saddened by Carson and Mola. Wonder if either/both got offers from elsewhere. Keeping Azeez is a great, even if it means someone'll have to pay a fee for him this summer. Still think the likes of Bolton and Plymouth will be circling. All in all, could have been a lot w...

Was expecting a thread about the likes of Glenn Murray, Rodrigo Riquelme or Pedro Mendes, but this is much more fun...

Pereira's ragged distribution is the worst thing about his game, but that was just painful to watch. If he's ever going to have a chance, surely it's CBC's turn next season?

Playing like they did (in the first half) tonight, this side is a starting LW away from being properly competitive in this league - which is crazy when you consider what we had to work with last summer and the troubles Selles has had since. So much credit to him in particular for sticking with us an...

Someone in the know, has Camara been playing for the u21s recently, or is he still broken? Surely he must be due a look in given our problems at LW (unless it's WiFi coming on as a sub to score a worldie)...

Has to be the end for Button. I'd take JP shanking the odd clearance over Button getting beaten at his near post again (and again).
Still yet to be impressed by Elliott. At 21 he's playing like a 17yo - a bit lightweight and clearly not comfortable wide left. His head drops alarmingly easily.

Likely, given how Kia has been known to operate, that Dai was the face for a group of owners/investors - and, disturbingly, the one they thought most likely to pass the fit and proper test. We've never properly got rid of the Thais, who Kia was also responsible for - being very close to Thaksin and ...
