    Would Ruben Rodrigues be a good signing. If so let's spend the entire transfer budget allowed by the efl on that player or someone similar.
    Priority number 1, a new striker.

    Exactly, since I don't rate the player.
    To loose our best striker and be left with Collins....

    We have just lost a 25 goal striker and we were about 15 goals short of automatic last season. We must have a striker in mind .But can we PLEASE get some midfielders that can chip in with goals and assists.

    No one - some played consistently decent ( Cashin,Forsyth and Wildsmith )  the others were up and down

    Take into consideration that if we don't sell him, a year from now he's a free agent.
    We will not recover a large portion of his fee through his sale. Its probably be better to sell than to loan him out again.

    pw seems clear about which type of players are in his plans.
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/league-one/top-scorers/assists
    We could probably use another player who great at creating assists.
    https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sportsmole.co.uk/football/league-one/best-defence.html
    Had one of the best defenses in League 1, but we could use some younger players in that area.
    Pw mentions wanting to strengthen in the number 9 and 10 positions.
    Pw says he doesn't want to bring in players who demand to play every game. Yet we have a number of older players who I expect to do less well next year and we will need a team where we can bring on younger legs so that the team doesn't look lethargic again towards the end of the season.
    With one of the smallest teams in the division I'd like to see us reach 28 to 30 players for the coming season.
    I'd like us to sign striker under 30 years old, someone capable of scoring at least 15 goals in the season

    Oldben reacted to Day in DCFC Quiz Night @ Pride Park in support of the Motor Neurone Disease Association   
    Event organiser Peter Mills is an East Stand season ticket holder and secretary of MNDA (Gloucestershire) branch. He is still close friends with his former John Port School mate Martin Kelly who was first diagnosed with MND in 2017. This cruel and debilitating terminal illness currently has no treatment or cure. However, the search for a cure has accelerated thanks to recent high-profile fundraising efforts from leading sportsmen such as Kevin Sinfield, Rob Burrow and Doddie Weir who once said “MND is not incurable, just underfunded”.
    Having observed at close hand the devastating  progress of the disease; Peter says “My old schoolmate Martin was diagnosed with MND at age 59. It’s heart-breaking to see but he battles on with dignity and good humour.  Everyone attending the Rams quiz night will be raising funds to support people living with this dreadful illness and the search for better treatment and a cure." The evening will honour all Rams fans past and present with MND.
    Update 30/04/2023:
    We are anticipating having a table of ex-players taking part. Roger Davies (who will be asking some of the questions) and Steve Powell are already confirmed. 
    In response to feedback, in addition to being able to enrol a team for £30, we are now offering individual places @£8 per head. Just sign up and we will make up teams from the applications.
    To sign up email peter.millsdcfc@gmail.com 
    Please help to promote the event by retweeting the pinned tweet @millsdcfc 
    Thanks everyone

    Oldben got a reaction from NG2Ram in Paul Warne appointed as Head Coach   
    https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/jeff-stelling-issues-verdict-on-paul-warnes-derby-county-future-after-play-off-disappointment/
    Sky Sports presenter Jeff Stelling has urged Derby County to stick with Paul Warne after missing out on the League One play-offs.
    From my own point of view, he got Rotherham fc, promoted on several occasions and on a very low budget.
    Our owner spent a lot on buying the club out of a potential bankruptcy. 
    Then he brought in a league one promotion specialist, gave him a 4 year contract worth several million. The owner trust Warne. 
    Warne inherited a team thar weren't his choice, littles changed since thar time. He's been constricted by not having a transfer budget. 
    In the summer we almost didn't meet the league requirements to for a team, we had to bring in a lot of players as free agents, just to survive.
    We are rebuilding, as the old saying goes, Rome wasn't built in a day.
    Our squad requires an overhaul and its difficult to do on just free agents.
    Warne wants to bring in better players than we have now, but he's not allowed to spend money doing that.
    Doesn't matter that when I watched games in the 1970s, 80s etc we faced different struggles. We are where we are.
    Doesn't matter that we are punished by the efl, that it might appear unjust.
    What matters is that there's a job to be done in rebuilding the team. There's a job to be done in rebuilding the club's reputation.
    I've previously listed free agents that are available and might play for us at this level, the general response seemed to be 1% are players we might want to sign. A very narrow field, good job we have a new head of recruitment to help with the rebuild.
