2 striker targets - ones a small fee + ones loan ( Prem - heard three names that it  could be)
1-4 players possibly going out - most likely ward and or fornah 

Cool.  I like that not only are we not signing Gregory, we are openly rebelling against the notion.

I think it is a new name, medical pencilled in today. Defiantly NOT Lee Gregory though 

FFS BT - I was just starting to get some work done…..now I’m going to be hitting refresh every minute!! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Love this. It's a direct reaction to a real weakness in our side. Let's hope he does well.
Square peg in an empty hole. Good job Derby.

Me too. The triumph of hope over expectation and reality!

If this is true, hopefully a sign that Warne can no longer tolerate the imbalance. Start him with Bird. Hourihane to be a super sub in very advanced role, looking to provide those quality finishes when the game opens up.

I don't always agree with what you post, but I don't think you deserve to be banned.

Requirement no.2
"Speaking exclusively to canaries.co.uk about his move, Adams said: "This is a dream come true for me, and I’ve worked hard to get here.

"I want to thank Jason Long, Deren Ibrahim and Tony Burman, as well as everyone else at Dartford, for their help. They gave me the opportunity, and that gave me the chance to be spotted by Norwich.

"I’d describe myself as a box-to-box midfielder because I like to get about the pitch. My game is about working hard, and that’s what I need to do now to push on again."
What his FGR page said:
"Bringing speed and energy to the Rovers midfield, Ebou Adams is at his best when he’s breaking up the opponents’ play, getting hold of the ball and making crucial passes to put his team onto the front foot.
Active from box to box, the media often claim Ebou is the most fouled player in League Two, but there’s a lot more to the Gambian international’s game than shielding the ball and winning free kicks. He has the speed and agility to glide past players, and when Rovers are turning the screw, he’ll blast in a blinder from the edge of the area or make a late run into the box to rise for a header.
That’s exactly what he did in Rovers’ Newport nail-biter in the play-offs – his brilliant header in the second leg in May 2021 was one of the highlights of the season. He also scored in Rovers’ last game of the previous campaign with a wonder strike away at promoted Swindon Town, just before the season was curtailed by COVID-19.
Ebou is a hugely influential player for the club, which has earned him the number eight shirt and a contract extension keeping him with FGR until the end of the 2021/22 season."

Anyway, if we sign this lad (which I have no doubt we will) then it goes some way to alleviating people's concerns about how he sees the team working better as a unit, which is what most people critical of Warne do actually want from him.
Awareness, learning, improvement. It's just that we haven't seen anywhere near enough of it.

About time we got an out and out CDM. Bird, Hourihane and Smith are all "keep the ball ticking over" players, they aren't all out attacking and certainly not all out defensive. Glad to see this position filled, now we just need a striker and that should be enough to see us through imo, but NOT Lee Gregory.

A player who did well for Forest Green in their League Two winning side, who has moved to the Championship but not really got a look in?
The last one like that is alright, so why not.

I asked an FGR supporting friend about him. 

She replied “He's fabulous.  Bit hot headed but loads of skill midfielder.  Very passionate”

I really hope this happens. This is what I called for in the midfield thread a few days ago. 
We have good attacking options but they aren't free to get forward and do their thing because no one is doing the nasty stuff to allow them to stop looking over their shoulders.
Love the idea of:
Adams (DM)
Thompson/Fornah (box to box engine)
Bird/Hourihane/Sibley (number 10 or attacking mid)
I've just got a feeling someone like Adams, in the mold of Eustace, will help knit it all together and we'll start seeing the benefits of our talented squad.

Always a good sign when you see current fans wishing the lad good luck and saying they’re sad to see him go. Lots of them saying he’s a workhorse and is championship quality but has been unlucky with his time there.
