    Yes and Sadlier should be back at the end of the month all being well.
    He too can play wide left if necessary.

    Outs have to go before anyone allowed in? This mysterious wad of cash seems ‘another’ January crowd pleaser. Times are hard though with no income so incremental springs to mind.

    Then again, does TS. Want 7.5 million for being in the championship or 1.4 for being in league 1? Big difference TS, over to you.

    I'm sure TS would welcome you chipping in Brin if you have the money and cunning plan to guarantee success. Might lob a bit his way myself if my numbers come up in this weekend's $1.5B lottery

    Miller not strong enough same as Flo. Who's next? Tilt fav' Vassell should be but he's a Warney boy. Sounds like we are stuck with loans Blackman Flo Hirst unless their parent club takes them back. Should have had Vickers in for Blackman then Chelsea would send him somewhere else to get game time.

    ...Gone to Northampton season long loan
    He failed the "ability to pass to a teammate" test.

    No they wouldn't. They don't have to recall. But we may have to pay more of his wages.

    It's not as simple as that though is it?
    I think it's fair to say that most people were happy with the pre-season recruitment with some even optimistically predicting a mid-table finish. Of course that could still happen but, based on what we've seen so far quite a few of the recruits are not Championship standard and some of the players who came up last season aren't either. It's not the first time we've been in that situation either.
    So what do we want TS to do? Income streams are very restricted so it's surely unrealistic to expect him to gamble on staying up by throwing money at the notoriously difficult January transfer window. But let's say he did gamble but it didn't work out and we went down anyway. What then? Wouldn't that potentially put the club on the same slippery financial slope as some others who have bet the farm and lost.
    I'm pretty sure TS will want us to stay in the Championship but I'm equally certain that it won't be at all costs.

    Spending money on players is not necessarily throwing money down the drain ! Even if we go down they could still be worth a lot more than what we paid for them !

    For example Tom Bradshaw, Kayden Jackson, and Keiffer Moore all players Warney thought weren’t worth the fees, or Ts and the board did ? All of these players have more than doubled their worth in the transfer market, so it’s all about buying the right players at the right age ? You can add Moyatt, Wilks and the Doncaster Rovers ex captain Ben Whiteman to that that list although none of them played for us
