Birmingham are a given. Hoping Wrexham & Stockport join them to freshen up that league with some new fixtures. Local too.
Wouldn't complain with Charlton or Orient. Good London trips.
Class win at Norwich. Heckingbottom is just absolutely levels above Lowe. He's made us into one of the best teams in the league out of possession and knows exactly how to play against the better teams.
Gibson is looking like one of the best signings we've made in the last decade.
Looks like...
Being linked to Daniel Iversen on a free to replace Freddie Woodman in the summer. Was class for us on loan, but I was hoping we'd be looking for a keeper who has good distribution. Iversen does not.
Norwich away. Would obviously take a draw right now. We've lost three centre backs to injury in the past 10 days.
Possible team:
Woodman
Porteous - Lindsay - Hughes
KKH - McCann - Thordarson - Meghoma
Greenwood - Frokjaer
Osmajic
Despite playing each other on the first day of the Football League in 1888, we've never faced each other in the FA Cup.
Good draw I think. Winnable and should be a decent crowd & atmosphere. We're hard to beat at home under Heckingbottom. Only lost against Arsenal & Bristol City.
In all comps...
Freddie Woodman supposedly has a move back down south already lined up. Not sure what clubs down here need a keeper, I imagine it will be one in and around London.
Fenerbahce the latest name mentioned as an Osmajic link. He's already had a spell over in Turkey, so not an unknown package over...
Supposedly interested in Lewis Bate at Stockport, assume it would depend on them missing out on promotion.
We'll be in the market for a central midfielder with Ryan Ledson & Duane Holmes likely to depart.
Evatt? From round that way isn't he? Think he started off there as a youth player anyway.
He'd be a dreadful appointment but I bet he's twerking for the job.
I wanted us to strengthen the defence, and we did.
Lewis Gibson looks absolute class so far, literally the full package for a defender. Doesn't seem to have any weaknesses. A snip at £1.5m and I think he'll probably make us a healthy profit in 18 months if he carries on.
Jayden Meghoma is...
Wycombe at home. Big banana skin. Can't rotate much if we want to progress.
Storey is out and Porteous is cup tied so I hope we go 4 at the back.
Woodman
KKH - Whatmough - Gibson - Meghoma
McCann - Thordarson
Potts - Frokjaer - Greenwood
Osmajic
Although I could see Lindsay, Holmes, and...
It's like you almost started too well, so the timing of your bad run means sacking the manager is risky, with the best candidates like Rowett & Neil already taken.
Kind of unbelievable you didn't sign a striker with 1 goal in 5.
Sounds like he's similar to Storey who is out for about 2 months. No option to buy, so I've no issues with this one.
I guess if he does well we will make an offer.
I think that's us done. We only had the Bowler wage to play with so it's gone on a CB rather than a midfielder.
All set for 13th.
