Brown, Thompson, Ebosele, McDonald, err.... Yep,so as we thought and suspected,no new players in. Encouraged by the passion of the academy kids against notts county however but crikey we are going to have a fight on our hands. In many ways I'd rather we went down fighting with our academy lads giving it their all for their club than a bunch of short term contract pensioners who care nothing for us. Looks like Wayne was sadly out of the loop again too in relation to our in's....

After notts county and our lack of other resources,Rooney will surely make more use of him this season. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without an adequate bench for injuries, suspension and tiredness, it’s going to be a tough ask for them to starve off relegation though.

Mel said there are several buyer groups in the mix. Wonder whether he said that to try to get the leading group over the line. Not sure the club even has the bandwidth to properly deal with numerous suitors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DazzaRam Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 So if Cashin,Williams or Thompson are named in the squad Saturday they then become one of the free player slots. Is that right? So really we sign before mid day tmoro or this is it. EFL are turning the screw i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That front 6 could be pretty decent. Plus we've got Byrne and 2 ok championship keepers. Obviously the defence is understrength, but if we can bring in a couple more there, we'll have a decent first 11. If we can keep reasonably free of injuries and 2 or 3 academy players turn out to be good enough to start, we might get through to January in a relitavley ok position. Hopefully Bielik could be back then, Knight too, and the world will have hopefully changed for the better. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird and Shinnie are as bad a duo as I can remember in the middle when playing together. Both last season and this pre-season when I've seen them together it's looked shocking almost each and every time. Neither suit each other's game and don't offer enough either defensively or going forward. A defensive duo of Forsyth and Cashin hardly fills me with confidence and where are the goals coming from? CKR and Lawrence if they have good seasons for them will get 8-10 goals a piece but there are few other goal outlets- Sibley might get 5 or 6 if he's played regularly I guess. Then you've got an untried left back and a goalie who is error prone. Edited August 5, 2021 by Leeds Ram RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
