Millenniumram got a reaction from Andicis in Summer Rumour Mill
I mean one of them worked for Warne before so I don’t think anyone doubted he would sign here.
Ward is a more promising sign that players might actually want to come here. It’s still only a player turning down league one offers though - we had players turning down Championship clubs for Rosenior. Let’s see what the rest of the window brings.

Millenniumram got a reaction from Abu Derby in Jason Knight - joined Bristol City
1.5m is laughable for Knight. Given his international and Championship experience I would want more like 4m. I hope we’re pushing Bristol hard.

Millenniumram got a reaction from Kernow in Josh Vickers - joined on a 3 year deal
Heard this one a while back. Solid signing as back up to Wildsmith. Has some League One experience, and perhaps a slight upgrade on McGee.

So Joe Ward has got Sonny Bradley’s hands and Josh Vickers has got Asmir Begovic’ gloves. Weird day.

And how do you know that? You spoken to him or something?
The point I’m making is I don’t know and neither do you. You can see it either way based on the knowledge we have. My opinion is as valid as yours based on no evidence.

I'll let you into a secret, I was on the lash yesterday in Willington with a mate, Daryl Powell lives in Willington and is an Agent, I was told he has a Staffordshire Bull terrier...called Big Trav!

Big Trav got something right. This changes everything I knew about the world.
Maybe Paul Warne isn’t just a fitness coach in a bobble hat after all?

Millenniumram got a reaction from TimRam in England - Euro 2024 qualifiers
So much talent in the side. Kane the best number 9 in the world for me. Saka and Bellingham edging towards being world class.

Superb from England tonight. Macedonia aren’t great, but they’re not terrible. We made them look like San Marino.
Very Impressive start to what looked on paper a tough qualification campaign.

That’s why he said watch out for him. Don’t want him to bump into you with all those pounds

Millenniumram got a reaction from Will Hughes Hair in Guess the 5
He said similar in January and we just ended up with Toby Springett, who was about as good at football as me

Millenniumram got a reaction from Will Hughes Hair in Paul Warne Pre-Season Interview
A massive team is not necessarily expensive. Otherwise most teams wouldn’t have more than 18 players, which is clearly not the case. And I don’t mean a massive Forest Esque squad anyway, clearly that’s stupid, I just mean a regular sized squad bigger than the paper thin one we had last year.
Nobody is saying spend loads of money on backup players. But they do need to be there. Otherwise when injuries hit (and they will), we’ll be ducked. The U21 team doesn’t exist.
Relative to the rest of the league, we’re not poor. We’re not financially struggling to compete.

I’ll accept 2nd, but there’s no excuses this time around.

22 isn’t really enough either. I generally say 25 is the ideal squad amount. Any major injuries and you’re ducked with only 22 players. With only 20 you’re ducked anyway, that’s ridiculously thin.
We can’t rely on the academy as things stand, it’s a mess. There’s no quality coming through any time soon. The new academy manager will be sorting that out, but it takes time. I’d be surprised if anyone comes through for the next 3 years.

Millenniumram got a reaction from Will Hughes Hair in Paul Warne Pre-Season Interview
He previously admitted he got that wrong though, which I was relieved to hear. Thought he was learning from his mistakes.
We’re no longer under such strong restrictions, I refuse to believe that Oxford can afford a full squad but we can’t.

This point is a real concern. Our squad was too small last season and he seems to want it to be smaller.
20 players is nowhere near enough depth
