    That happened to me as well. I just uninstall/reinstalled it and it worked. It crashed a few times trying to log in as well but got there in the end.

    My bad I guess I didn't pose the question clearly before. I was trying to ask was who was the player that we signed last summer that was first rumoured at least on here. From what I can see on the Transfer forum Nixon linked us with Sonny Bradley on May 14th last year so we are kind of due a credible rumour very soon.

    What was the date of the first credible rumour for a player that we signed last summer. Ward and Vickers were the first announced on the 20th June.

    Can remember him being highly rated at Ajax years ago. Little google search says he tore his ACL 2 weeks ago.

    It's good to see that Carlton Palmer is still getting into the squad.

    After realising that Tyrese Campbell is the son of Kevin Campbell, and with us being linked to Devante Cole, Josh Windass, and Charlie Savage, it occurred to me that our new transfer policy is obvious: the children of 90's and 2000's UK footballers who Paul Warne & Richie Barker remember. So here's a list of suggestions.
     
    GK - True Grant - Man City, 18, son of Lee Grant. Derby County link there already - terrible name, but we'll sign him when Man City get relegated to the National League North.
    RB/CB - Finn Delap - Burton, 18, son of Rory. Sign Finn up first and Liam will follow.

    CB - Charlie Cresswell - Leeds, 21, son of mediocre journeyman striker, Richard Cresswell. Was on loan at Millwall last season and they rated him. Recently crashed his car into police car outside Elland Road, so possibly a b*llend.

    CB - Caleb Taylor - WBA, 21, son of Martin Taylor (not that one, the brute from Birmingham). Did well on loan at Cheltenham last season, played nearly 50 games. Loaned to Bolton this Feb but barely played. Contract expires next summer.

    DM/CM - Jensen Weir - Brighton, 22, son of David Weir. Rated when on loan at Blackpool but game time was limited so cut it short. Played a lot on loan at Port Vale, who were bloody awful. He is soon-to-be free though.

    CM - Charlie Savage - Reading, 20, son of Robbie Savage. More technical than his Dad, plus he doesn't have that stupid bloody hair. Reading have no money, so a god shout.

    CM - Bobby Clark - 20, Liverpool, son of Lee Clark. We're also being linked to him! He'd be a great loan by all accounts.

    CM - Donovan Lescott - 20, just released by Blackpool, son of Joleon. Probably rubbish.

    CM - Jack & Tyler Fletcher - Man Utd, 17, twin sons of Darren Fletcher. Both handy centre mids, possibly we'd get a 2-4-1 deal on a loan.

    AM/RW - Stan Mills - Everton, 20, son of Danny Mills. Did well on loan at Oxford than knacked his knee. Could be a good loan when he's fit. Probably hears lots of great stories from when his Dad played 2 games for Derby.

    AM - Elliot Lee - Wrexham, 29, son of Rob Lee. Another Derby link, smashed it in L2 with 16 goals from midfield. We probably can't afford him though, and he's nearly 30.

    AM - Josh Windass - Sheff Weds, 30, son of Bradford and Hull legend, Dean Windass. Scored 6 in the Championship for a crap Wednesday side. A bit old but possibly available on a free, let's see.

    RW - D'Margio Wright-Phillips - Stoke, 20, son of Shaun. Soon to be a free agent, but did well on loan in Belgium at Beerschot, a name which makes me thirsty.
    CF - George Hirst - Ipswich, 25, son of David Hirst. Did well in the Championship this season but could easily get replaced, let's see. Seem to remember he was a big-time prat when leaving Sheff Weds.
    CF - Tyrese Campbell - free, 23, son of Kevin Campbell. Didn't really score for Stoke, but they are an awful, cursed club and couldn't get a tune out of Dwight Gayle either.

    CF - Devante Cole - free, 29, son of Andy Cole. Two good seasons at Barnsley so worth a punt on a free.

    Survival is paramount that's for sure!
    Looking at the last couple of seasons I would say let's aim for 17 wins which is falling short of play-off contention but far enough for staying up. 
    On a performance/style of play basis I just want to have a sense of fearlessness against teams that will be awash with £30k+ a week talent. I think we've seen enough championship football to know that even though a team looks terrifying on paper it doesn't mean they are a stable, motivated unit to play against. Also It will be interesting how Warne can adapt to accepting draws as positive results.

    Nigel Clough showed on a number of occasions that he could set up a team to play beautiful football. Easily rivalling that of Mac1. 
     
    Just a shame he was always quick to put the brakes on to drag us to 50 points - but with a bottom 6 budget he did brilliantly when you consider what he inherited.

    I'd add Yuito Suzuki from Brondby to that list. Japanese forward who's a tad similar in play style to Kyogo at Celtic. Seems to be in really good form at the moment last 5 games he's grabbed 3 goals and 4 assists. Only 22 because he's gone through the non traditional route of Japanese players by not going to University. Liverpool and Hotspuds have been watching recently but I don't think he's truly at that quality yet. If he does go to one of big clubs he definitely should be a loan target for us.

    From what I've read of the situation National League teams have to apply for promotion to the Football League at the start of the league season which was accepted so the EFL and National League both knew of Gateshead's ground situation which I don't think has changed for years.
    To just boot them out at this stage is just cruel. Why should there need to be a 10 year security on a stadium when EFL clubs for example aren't required to show an equivalent financial security for that long of a period.

    Looks like he only has one year left on his contract so he shouldn't cost the earth and highly likely not to renew his contract. A cheeky 300/400k bid could get him.
