What could scupper us is the sheer malaise of these players who evidently don't want to be here but are seemingly stuck. Seen it before at this level.

Where on earth do they keep getting their money from?

With that squad i don't think that's as impressive as it obviously ought to be. Time will tell, as I say i'm probably being unfair but he came across as bang average as a coach here IMO.

If PSR is a major issue for 25/26 then 24/25 was too and yet we didn't sell anyone last month. I'd argue multiple breaches would make selling players to try and comply futile. Just fight fire with fire.

Putting himself forward for it, our lot are easily convinced with MS PowerPoint.

He starts very well at clubs, that's about it

I'm convinced it's going to be Gary O'Neil

I keep saying to myself CHRIS WILDER IS A BUM in Tyson Fury's voice after his insults he used to throw at Deontay.

KP polo kit and them horrid jeans

Every time I see Aluko on the ball he seems an absolute beast. Think he's my outside pick as the academy player who comes through and shines the most this season.

Stansfield would be our striker comfortably. Daka has fell apart and just don't see anyone rescuing him here.

Birmingham's biggest weakness might be their manager. Just not having him at all but I maybe massively unfair/wrong on him.

Will it be lifted once paid or not?

Will cover it on the next podcast. Chaos

Don't think I've ever seen a managerial vacancy barely be reported in the media, either everyone's had enough of us or we are that much of a mystery the media genuinely can't even fabricate who the possible candidates might be. Same with transfers, it's a complete vacuum right now. Tallies with what I've recently heard from someone close to Brussell Martin.

Seems a very harsh restriction does it not? Fair enough Sheffield Wednesday who have had ample problems but a transfer embargo for a late payment of just £1m is staggering.

Anything north of £8-9m is a profit on the books with him.

Not sure, but if he were leaving us he had to notify the club and the league of his intention to do so in June. So it seems a formality he's signing a pro deal here when he turns 17.

In essence we'd likely cover the severance as part of his signings on fee here.

I'm interested to see which position he develops in. I think he's more of a support forward/winger but time will tell.

I love this shout, especially as Hoffenheim have recently signed a player from Bundesliga 2 who i wanted us to look at Tim Lemperle. Plus theyve got Hlozek, Oban, Moerstedt and a few others to choose from. Contract is up in 2026 too.

Yeah i get it, just annoying. Some clubs just have a reputation that makes lower league clubs queue up to loan they're talent but we've had a tough time in recent years get deals but then we release the likes of Ewing, Maswanhise and they get half decent moves that had they got a loan there might have kicked them on.

Irksome how such clubs might not have been willing to take players like Ewing on loan in the last year or two but will be first in the queue to get them on a free. First world problems and all that but getting loan moves for our academy players and regular gamete seems a battle.

Be interesting to see what Tom Collomosse has to say tomorrow on his LCFC Q&A, I've a feeling he's confident we'll get Rohl.

I think one of them ends up here this summer on loan
