Move on, move on, nothing to see here. Especially no whizzy winger from Newcastle

You lot are going to jinx the signing

Hey come now-he is potentially a "high risk" signing-ok the last injury was a result of a bad tackle but that will happen due to his skill-he would not be the 1st winger to sign for us with injury problems....or the last

Assuming KLL sings. As things stand would you say we are weaker or stronger than last year ?

slightly weaker-as a whole squad-that said he would be our only signing so far,proper,if you get my drift.

That depends at what point last year you're talking about. If you mean compared to the squad that finished the season, I would say that we are stronger, but if you mean the team that had LuaLua, Murray and Bennett in (around September), I would say we are weaker now.

Once we sign a top striker, however, we will move to another level...

Was thinking this myself earlier. Key player transfers:

Out: Muzza, Benno
In: Bucko, Hoskins, Lua Lua

Tuff to say but potentially as good with plenty of time for more signings yet!

I can't say I do get your drift. Would you not count our first £million player as a 'proper' signing?

Right. Paddy Power have us down as 20/1 'outright' and 13/2 on 'promotion'.

Do any of you know whether 'outright' means winning the league as Champions or does it also include going up automatically in the top two? I'm guessing 'promotion' means any promotion, including going up via play-offs... ???

Well if we had of kept Bennett and still paid £1m for Buckley then it would not be a like for like replacement-that's what i ment.

Outright does indeed mean champions, promotion is anything else

No I don't get your drift. Buckley for £1m, Hoskins for £500,000 was it?

Both replacements for players Gus no doubt knew would not figure-they have been replaced and now Gus embarks on his search for 5-7 new players,Lua being the first "Proper"(ok wrong choice of words)but hope this clears things up.

It does. Thank you. Although, I think Gus said at the time that Hoskins was not a Murray replacement.

“We will sign someone but not a replacement. It will be somebody who is different.”

Definitely weaker. The 2 best players from last year replaced by one player whose team was relegated to Div 2 and one who didnt cut in last time in the Championship. Even LL isn't experienced at Championship level - looking good in the 1st Div is totally different.
