    Dean (hick) Saunders got a reaction from SKRam in Summer Transfer Suggestion Thread 2023   
    Quality prem loans are often done later in the window (after season starts frequently) as they may depend on the prem teams own transfer dealings. I think we probably keep a slot open for one or two of these, but don’t bank on it. IE A Brucey bonus..

    I think he will sign just a question ad when he does.

    According to Google lens this is what the polish text on his IG story says… 

     
    EDIT - with a bit more digging it seems he made an inappropriate comment in response to a fan’s comment on Instagram. The fan said something about Bielik having fun and Bielik responded by saying he’d had fun with the fan’s mother 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Oxford have just been loaned an England u20 goalkeeper from Brighton. We have signed some steady League 1 players but 2 or 3 loans from the Prem could give us the edge.

    Dean (hick) Saunders got a reaction from FlyBritishMidland in How do we solve a problem like McGoldrick(s replacement)   
    It should be possible to replace the goals, but not the class.
    Sheffield Wednesday had Smith and Windass both in Teans of goals, but together more than McGoldOne.
    Neither of those two (type of) strikers or equivalents are out of our range?
    Anyway that’s the way to do it…

    My thoughts exactly. It is possible to replace the goals through a combination of the likely change in play and the squad additions we have and will continue to make. I can see there being more goals shared across the team, the likelihood is McGoldrick was a one season treat for the fans, there aren’t many players out there (at this level) with his touch, vision, and for want of a better word… swagger(?). 
    I’m glad we got to see him play and I expect we’ll see goals next season but more scored from range, from crosses, relying on some pace/power rather than McGoldricks touch and class.

    Not getting to playoffs again would be utter failure. If we got there and fate conspired against us then there is not much you can do about that.
    Must be aiming for top two though..

    We won the top division twice with white shirts, red numbers, blue shorts and white socks.

    That’s why !
    Derby baseball team, English Baseball Champions circa 1898
    I believe that is Steve Bloomer back row who played in the team.

    2 successive years of 20goals in a pretty average L1 team seems decent unless I’m  missing something.

    Top two is the target. Top 6 is the very bare minimum. Any less than that is an abject failure. We've had a year to acclimatise and get settled under Clowes, time to get out of this rubbish league.

    I wondered what would happen if we tried to adjust transfer costs by inflation. I took the inflation figures from https://www.totallymoney.com/content/transfer-index/data/#filters?/options?order=4|asc and calculated what we paid, minus any fee we received and divided by the number of appearances we actually got out of the player. The higher the bindex number, the more relatively useless the player was to us.

    Yes, I lead an incredibly exciting life.
