All your Runors here...Barry/Kodija / Xia

No bongo at 31 you could never offer him that kind of deal, 2 years with an option at best! Ashely Young that is.

MONs worse signing value wise. He was worth 2m.

Let's have some ideas yourself Mr know it all. 1st on the list from freer is Craig Gardner.

Sadly we parted company with Craig Gardner at at time when we lacked combative midfielders he also offered cover at full back –his time has gone & his form in decline so lets place that idea in the trash can eh ?

Why not give Hepburn-Murphy, Andre Green, Jordan Lyden, Keinan Davis & the impressive Harry McKirdy some proper game time -rather than throwing shedloads of green backs at players other sides are off loading ?

Do you actually have a sustainable option ?

Or is your long term strategy enlist ex Villa players looking at topping up their hefty bank balances 'cause if so it ain't very progressive is it Bongo ?

[bongosdad]

My strategy cost under 10m

Crouch Barry Young = promotion

We might as well go the full hog and bring Delph back too. That's 4 top players for about 17m

If we sell Sanchez 2.5m
Vertout and Gil 9m
Amavi 10m

It's ample funds to buy these players.

So no plan of action/strategy eh ? other than AVFC flushing another load of cash down the sh@tter

And Hepburn-Murphy, Andre Green, Jordan Lyden, Keinan Davis & Harry McKirdy to be given away or sold for peanuts while this “Good 'ol Boys” reunification plan of yours throws us into further debt eh ? your not exactly soccer's answer to Martin Lewis are you ?

And as your brilliant idea of bringing back Delph he'd be about as welcome in Birmingham 6 as a turd would be in a swimming pool

That all sounds great but we need to hit the ground running next season. Tony doesn't want a 4 year plan to get promoted.

[TrianonDave]

The last tweet on this subject from Tony said it was more like a 5-10 project!! Players who have graced VP should stay away, it will never be the same! New blood is required and hopefully a new star!

[bongosdad]

Its not a 10 year plan to get out of the championship. As long as we get 4 players that can walk into our 1st 11 I'm happy.

We have no god given right to gain promotion based on our history we have to earn it and earn it well. We need a fearless arrogant tough commanding 95 minute team! over to you SB.

Oh come on we did beat Birmingham City & “The enigma” scored too

“ a fearless arrogant tough commanding 95 minute team” certainly raising the bar there T D

I too would settle for a group performing in an aggressive unyielding (yet sporting) manner- instead of our mousy bunch playing scared most matches.

My view is its a galactic ask way beyond Steve Bruce- though I would love to be proved wrong !
