  1. Horvath Palmer Cooper Lowe Fusire Ingelsson Bannan Valery Cademarteri McNeil
  2. Chances of the fee restriction being entirely lifted is slim to none But I’m sure it’ll be reduced on appeal
  3. He'll have to prove his fitness. And naturally, he'll want to see if there are better offers/our financial situation changes. I don't mind the terms of the deal. Come January we should be in a stronger position to bring players in. If Redmond impresses, that could still involve him. If he doesn't, we part ways & find some better loans.
  4. Played the majority of his career in the PL & is 31 In our “beggars can’t be choosers circumstances, I’m pretty impressed by being able to sign Cooper & Redmond. The BEST thing about signing Redmond is I think we now have the ability to change our formation.
  5. Made two or three fantastic stops. Distribution when kicking isn't great but honestly not sure our forwards are getting on the end of anything regardless.
  6. Playing Freed from Desire when we have no one to sing about being on fire was the icing on the cake for me. Terrible music choices before the game. I was fully expecting a run through of some classic wednesday songs. Or Hey Jude. SOMETHING. Then to come out to Feel the Noise for the second half when we're 1-0 down & I can't feel my toes. As someone else. The announcer was horrendous too. Was all very strange. You'd think with certain important people watching on - and the very likelihood of losing the game - one thing that would have been insisted on was getting the pre match atmosphere rocking to really show us at our best.
  7. Or they're playing a lot more football at a much higher intensity... ..and this squad in particular are being pushed to their limits. I'm actually surprised we've not had more injuries.
  8. Charles - imminent Chalobah - back in training Kobacki - had a setback Brown - probably not back till mid-late December Bernard - think he's back running but still ages off seeing him considering he's been out for a year, no pre season etc. Weaver - out for the season
  9. Charles (think we've kept our cards close to our chest on this one) Fusire Iorfa Cooper (experienced enough to manage himself) Lowe Amass Valery Svante Baz Lowe Cadz
  10. Given his entire life to this club. Childhood to probably retiring. Played in umpteen positions. Scored the most important goal in post 90's history. Been a model professional throughout. No scandals. Good family man. Kept fit & mostly available. Maybe one red card off the top of my head? Tonnes of charity work. People will argue the throw over the word legend & who deserves it. But I despair at people who scoff, send laugh reactions etc when Liam's name even comes into the equation. What else could he possibly do to earn it?
  11. Wasn't a slight at Lowe. He's done a good job in horrible circumstances. I just genuinely, from when I've watched either player, think Watmore is someone who offers more. But again, I think Redmond is who I'd go for as he's entirely different a sort of player altogether.
  12. Anyone moaning really doesn't understand why these signings are being made and, in the circumstances, either Watmore or Redmond are still better quality than Jamal Lowe or Ike Ugbo. However, these signings aren't being made to improve the squad/quality of play etc (if that happens then bonus) They're signings that are being sanctioned, and are needed, because we desperately need bodies. We need to give players a rest. The squad needs rotational options urgently before AFCON & the christmas period starts. We're not out of the woods as a club. These are beggars can't be choosers times. Chuffed with Liam Cooper as a signing. If I got to choose, I'd prefer Redmond over Watmore. But tbh I'm hoping Watmore hangs on for the takeover and we can get him in also as I've always felt he's a handy forward.
  13. I'm an ambulant disabled person (can walk unassisted but only about ten mins or so before needing a break/triggering pain. So this entirely ruins my plans.
  14. Having a league one team that potentially includes a forward line of George Brown, Bailey & Grainger is quite exciting. Weaver at the back too I imagine we'll lose Charles.
  15. Will entirely depend on the type of takeover we get & the noise that comes out of the club afterwards. Market things well & people will still stick with it.
