    Not even Stubbs could take Man U down (could he?).

Preston seem to have done the same thing but gone down the Ireland league route getting young players from there and turning out to be quality signings. You don't have to spend millions for these sort of players and they won't be on huge wages coming from lower divisions so we can afford to buy them and if they turn out to be good players then we are actually gaining money. As for the coaching side of things, they won't need much coaching if they have hidden talent it will come out natural.
    Have to agree millers88, unfortunately we're a long way off that situation.
    John Egan you mentioned, has Sheffield United just bought him ?
    If so Brentford have made a very tidy profit, even allowing for the 20% sell on clause.

    Not easy, but so satisfying

    Just watched his interview and was very impressed with his attitude. Seems a genuine and thoughtful guy. Could turn out to be a really useful acquisition

    Won’t be long before Paul Warne will be singing his praises
