Re: Hunt out.

I feel that Hunt has a very inexperienced team around him. A bit of help from someone like Colin, Bowen or Warburton might be beneficial. I really want him to succeed, but I don’t think he’ll get the time.

Re: Club legend.

I think Charlie Hurley should get a mention. He loved a great attacking style of football and in 1975/76 he got us our first promotion in decades. I remember my dad and uncles celebrating and I saw most of the home games that season, but not the Tranmere one. Also, he was oxf*rd stitched up by lack ...

Re: Hunt out.

I think it’s a bit too early to be calling for Hunt’s head, but if we lose the next two games I think his position will become more difficult. Unlike some, I don’t think our transfer business has been awful, and I have seen much worse over the years. Hunt needs to get the best out of this squad, but...

Re: Titbits

Tbf to Brogue or whoever he is (not sure about Gary from Woodley) he gets a lot right. Also, it’s clear that whilst we might agree terms with players some will hold out for better offers. Personally, I like all the updates and speculation as it adds some fun to proceedings.

Re: Michael Cheek (Bromley)

I’d be happy with this signing. He has been a consistent goal scorer for a while and he gets under the skin of defenders.

Re: Noel Hunt Confrimed

Todd giving Noel his backing on X. Hopefully, that’s not ominous. I love Noel and he’s still learning. I just want to see him develop a style of football that works. It feels a bit like McDermott ball atm, but without the same quality out wide. I was expecting us to give Pompey a tough game on Satur...

Re: Josh bowler

I hope Brogue is right, but I can’t see Bowler signing for us. I fully expect him to end up in the Champ. I should imagine the absolute maximum we’d pay is £7k pw.

Rumour - Klaidi Lolos

An account on x with 9.5k followers (not sure how reliable) is suggesting that we're after this chap from Bolton. Apparently, we are paying £250k spread over 3 years.

He's an AM and by all accounts did well for Crawley, but has not been given much of a chance at Bolton.

MouldyRoyal Musk would not be positive news!

Watching that clip, it sounds positive. Investors but not going to suddenly start breaking the bank. That's the right way imo

Re: New Owners - Redwood Watch

I am probably wrong, but it almost feels like Rob has brokered a deal for Aliya to eventually takeover the club.

He has over 7k followers and has been right about a couple of things. My expectations are realistic tbh, so I’ll be happy with a top half finish next season. I...

Re: Rumour - the Yak back

It’s a no from me. I don’t want us to start recruiting former players. Yaks is a great person, but I can’t help thinking we’d end up regretting signing him. I want to see the same recruitment as in the summer of 2023. I want us to sign players like Savage and Elliott and be pleasantly surprised. Hun...

Re: Rumour - Semi Ajayi

morganb Hull City are closing in on their second summer signing of the Sergej Jakirovic era, with experienced defender Semi Ajayi on the cusp of arriving.


Gutted we’ve missed out on Semi, he’d have been rock solid for our defence.

Re: Next seasons kit choice?

If what I have seen is genuine the solid blue hoops have gone. There’s still blue hoops, but in what looks like a paisley style pattern. I didn’t see any flowers as has been rumoured.
