Dean (hick) Saunders

I like this a lot even if Collo hadn’t got injured I would have been pleased with this signing 
A goalscorer and more importantly a different type of striker …I really wanted us to sign him when he left Newcastle as I’ve always thought he’s a threat 
well done DCFC getting this done 👍🏻 

Mendez Laing is pretty adept at the low hard crosses that Gayle could thrive on.

Said somewhere else that this was the one I fancied us winning of those left in February. Draw the home games and best this lot. I feel like we're a better team and that they won't be as desperate to s******** as Charlton were and Stevenage even more so. The win against Stevenage was a good 3 points in a game where not a lot of football was played and I agree that Barnsley will at least attempt to win on merit. Hopefully a little easier on the eye and another 3 points after which a win at home to Charlton and we might be looking alright going into March.

He’s a 6 yard box poacher needing ball at feet. Could work well with NML, CBT providing the amo ?

Was linked to Port Vale. They would not have been paying much wages.
If he did want to play In Championship again his best chance will be to help push us over the line and earn a contract for next season.

Bolton have three tricky away games now. I'd take a draw at Barnsley

Gosh this thread is a hard read at times. For those of you so dissatisfied at Warne, the style of football etc, genuine question. Did you not get any enjoyment from scoring a near last minute goal and the amazing atmosphere that it created in the ground? Did you not enjoy the celebrations amongst the players and fans at the end of the match? Did you not enjoy the infectious enthusiasm of Adams interview afterwards? Didn't you enjoy getting three points and remaining second in the league? Because it honestly feels like none of this brings you any joy, and I find that hard to understand.

I think with Collins out and him being our only number 9, that we will syart to see more of a 3412/3421 like we finished with yesterday meaning Gayle would likely be in a front 2 with NML until Waggy & Washington are fit. We could switch to 343 with Barkhuizen, Sibley & CBT.
In the next few weeks our attacking options could well be Gayle Waghorn Washington NML CBT Barkhuizen Sibley Wilson so thats still alot of good attacking options at this level

If people want to be pi$$ed off then let them, likewise if people want to be happy that we won and are 2nd in the league, then they should also be left to their happiness.
Me, I am happy to escape the league any which we we can. Ideally the footy would be a bit more pleasing on the eye but if it gets results I’ll handle it.
(90 minute winners are great and anyone who did not enjoy that bit at least has my sympathy).

Whatever he was on at Stoke is now irrelevant. He's 34, probably has little or no chance of ever playing again at a higher level than League One and unless he's thick, must realise big paydays are now behind him. If he wants to continue playing at a decent level, he has to tailor his demands to the financial ability of those clubs who show an interest to pay him.
From what I've seen of him he's not a hold-up striker, more a goal poacher- maybe not ideally suited to our style of play but we are so short in the striking department that he'll at least give us an alternative option.
So sad for Collins.

Can we please have this one thread as a place where people can come in to enjoy the after glow of matches we get a good result for fans that enjoy that kind of thing between now and the end of the season , it’s not a big ask , it’s not trying to ban anyone and if your not a troll or someone just out to spoil the mood or enjoyment for others  then I’m sure you won’t want to post in here ,
today feels great to me, if you feel good about today post away and post in here till season end ,
Roll on next Saturday 

Was it really necessary to start yet another anti Warne thread? Whilst your points may be valid, why couldn't you just post them on the match day thread?

Do you listen to anyone ? The academy was stripped of its best talent. The EFL are dictating who and what we can sign, our owner doesn’t have borrowed money to spend. Top line strikers or players in their prime are not available to teams in this position. 
 
We faced a physical team today and went face to face in the first half and kept them at bay. We then altered our set up and beat them. We did that with the help of a cracking crowd, a manager who was initially tentative because of player shortages in key positions but had the nous to have a plan B . We were all over them for the last 20. It wasn’t pretty for an hour, I didn’t enjoy the football but just maybe it was because we were playing cheating thugs. I wonder what would have happened if we’d been given a pen when Elder was bear hugged in the box as a cross came in ?

Jono , don’t bow out , I’ve felt exactly like you for some time but miraculously todays match thread has totally changed that ,,,, it’s trolling pure and simple by a small number , just laugh and post what you want mate , don’t let a small group spoil the enjoyment of wins , chasing promotion, our club rising from the ashes ,
a few want to spoil the feel good factor NO MATTER WHAT, once you see that clearly ( which today has shown me ) it loses any credibility and or ability to effect you negatively 

I’m just pleased as it looks like our days of being bullied out of the points, by teams like Stevenage, are behind us🐏🐏👍🏻👍🏻

Perhaps if we started stalking Mbappé, he'd join us too.

I think we have a very solid defence and better than average attack that will tend to score at least once per game even in turd games. That will get plenty of points.
