I'm going to guess based on his Twitter bio that Juan Martinez may not be an entirely trustworthy source

Imagine posting a parody account on here as genuine news!

Pearson doing pearson things… picking up rob dickie for a pittance of his value is an excellent move! 

 

Linked with prem sides for multimillions not too long ago, suffered with the rest of the squad with the manager switch but clearly the best they’ve got.  Not an area we likely need someone but a very good deal for them. 

 

Please come home Nige!

Has anyone ever watched any games on ifollow legit or streaming? Is it every game shown? Is there a commentary team? Genuinely curious. 

You can only watch certain matches in England on ifollow.  The Sat ones aren't allowed and i'm not positive but I think ones shown on Sky.  You can watch them abroad so you need a VPN if you are in England.  I watched all of Burnley's that I didn't go to as they are all streamed.  I think it was £10 to watch them through the club. They also show a few on the red button on Sky.

I’d like us to sign Gustavo Hamer from Coventry.

Were in contact with his agent along with 2 other Premier League clubs towards the end of the season. Would have been a strong possibility if we stayed up, but won’t happen now

Dickie and Atkinson will be a really solid CB partnership for them next year. Think this is them spending some Scott money early and they'll lack goals but he's a sensible operator that's for sure.

Wells, Weimann, Conway, Bell, Mehmeti, Sykes... 

 

I don't think we will lack goals. The defence needed addressing with Baker retiring, Da Silva going and Kalas likely to follow. (all high earners).

 

With Dickie, McCrorie and potentially Haydon Roberts coming in to add to Vyner, Tanner, Pring and Atkinson ( when he returns), plus others on the periphery, the defence is looking far stronger and the wage bill cut yet again. Also allows Kal Naismith to move up into midfield, where we can utilise his passing and he's less of a ****ing liability. 🤣

 

Exciting times, potentially. Be interesting to see who you guys get in charge and how your squad shapes up. Imagine you will be top six, but have hope we will at least be challenging for it

Agree with the second post.  We should be fearful of a pearson side given time to build. Could be the surprise package this year.  Especially if they replace scott well.

Where’s Scott gone?

Nowhere yet. I think what we are spending at the moment is actually the Semenyo money. 

 

Not altogether given up hope of keeping Scott next season, although if a club he likes comes in with 25-30 million, he will of course be gone.
