This really made me laugh lol!! Tbf though it sounds like from one of the articles about Gayle we had a lad from Blackburn lined up... Harry Leonard but they pulled the deal last minute!!

Prijovic? Bring him back to end his career after starting here lol Shame about Lucas Joao, Wickham worth a punt to end of season as backup surely?

How? We are a league one side, with a moderate budget, a playing environment has very little to do with it for footballers nowadays sadly. I'd love us to keep our best players but for any side in League one, selling your youth talent for money is what keeps you going, just ask Peterborough. At this point, that's all we are and all we can be.

I want us to win and get out the division, I don't care how. On occasion, we may have 'got away with it' but that's a lot less than the amount of times we have done what we had to to get the result. I don't think Warne wants us to resort to playing the way we have to sometimes and you can see his frustration when we don't play the way he wants but I don't think they are capable of sustainable the high energy game he wants. He's had to build an entirely different squad of players to play the way he wants and that gonna take more than the amount of windows he has had with the restrictions we have had. Young, hungry, energetic players are costly so he's had to sacrifice some of his ethos to just get players that can do part of what he wants If he gets us out of the division, and is able to bring in the players that suit him he'll keep us up I'm sure.... As for the next step after that who knows but I have confidence that he has the knowledge how to get us out of the division and for now.... That's all we need.... We have one aim, I genuinely don't care how we get there

Well, perhaps that's because the fans seem to think that we are in the championship, near the top and should be playing McLaren era football..... We arent, we are in League One and we are fighting to get out, and Warne, like it or not has us very near the top of the table with a very good record over the last quarter of the season. I'd love for us to play like we did with Russell and Thorne and Ward and Martin, all of those players but sadly that's not gonna get us out of that league and sadly we can't afford those players nor will they want to play in league one even if we are Derby County. Quality players will impact games within a coaches instruction.... I don't know where everyone seems to get this kick and rush idea from but that isn't how we play, look at the stats, Bird and Hourihane have more than enough opportunity to influence the game from where they are. They still take corners (occasionally badly) and they still have shots at goals (occasionally badly) and they still pass the ball (occasionally badly) all of which are midfielders bread and butter no matter the formation or the league or the instruction. The payers we have are not held back by Warne, they are just not quite as good as they were, playing in a side that isn't as good as it was, in a league that's full of pressing and tackling and chasing. Bird is a quality player, is young and I think will be much better in a championship side, it's a shame it won't be with us but I can't blame him, he's stuck with us through pretty much everything and deserves his shot, there's no guarantees in football so go while you can.

Absolutely this, win win all around it seems!! Not sure why anyone is upset?! The attitude of some folks on here is beyond me, and how Warne is at fault is also beyond me, he's pretty much played Bird every single game he could. How everyone can twist everything to be the managers fault is beyond me

You'd think in all likelihood someone at these games? Or maybe the FA cup replays for loans?
