We don’t want any kid who thinks he is in a position to demand first team football

Quite right, every single players should have to earn the right to play first team football.

Gives away too many free kicks and penalties, due to his poor technique. 

He puts his left leg in, then pulls his left leg out, in, out, in, out, shakes it all about.

Sorry Rev, that was so predictable mate!

Good to see that we’re no longer going to be taken for granted and have any more players stolen from us. We’re no longer in administration, so there’s no need to sell players in a fire sales for a pittance just to raise enough money to survive. We should only be selling players if we’re paid what they’re worth.

In Knights case, that’s got to be at least £7.5m imo. He might only have one year left on his contract, but he’s still vastly experienced (yet still young) Championship level player of international standard. Werder Bremen would be a great move for him tbf, young British players seem to develop really well abroad, particularly in Germany. I expect him to leave, but not until we get an offer worth selling him for.

He's not British, he's Irish.

Is a dangerous precedent being set here?

Excellent interview, I'm really liking the commitment to the club and the importance of setting standards and working hard from those we've had interviews from.  

 

Consummate professional.  Welcome back Richard Stearman.

No thanks!

I know the Poland coach said Bielik needs to play at a higher level and many are assuming he'll be loaned out but has anything actually been said about his status with us this season?.

I don't remember even seeing any rumours about a possible move.

My opinion on this issue is that Bielik has a contract with Derby County, not Poland!  Might sound a bit simplistic, but there you go!

I wonder where we are with James Collins?  Will this one get over the line this week?

Steve Gibson's not happy that McGoldrick signed for Derby and not Boro...

If it's true that Boro wanted McGoldrick can we expect yet another lawsuit from Gibson if they miss out on the playoffs this season?

Litigation incoming!

Has he signed yet ?

No, but it could be imminent..........possibly!

1388 is right. nobody is going to pay more than 5m to a league one club for the player. talk of 15 to 20 million is cloud cuckoo land stuff. i think 2-3m is what he will end up going for if he leaves. he may be worth more than that but we have no power to demand a serious fee

It would depend just how badly they want him!

I think this week is going to only get even better. 
 

I imagine 

 

- we will announce at least 8 more signings / resignings. 
 

- season tickets will go on sale. 
 

- hopefully rosenior will be given manager role perm. 
 

- new kit to come out. 

If Carlsberg did perfect scenarios.......

Need to be convinced on this one but hope he works hard and proves me wrong ?

Yeah, me too, have to give the lad a chance though.

If Carling did extraordinary evenings?

I hope you're right buddy. I'm just emotionally scarred by their constant moving of the goalposts over the last couple of seasons. ?

After what we've all been through, totally understandable mate!

That's a good call with DW.  As for Chris Houghton, no thanks!
