    I think his injury I’ll stop any move this window, most clubs don’t buy injured players. That means he has to perform for us until January and that is good for us, not good for the budget though.
    I still think Hugill should have been told in may that he wouldn’t be part of the named squad, he then has to decide that his time as a footballer is up or to move on. Football careers are short and he is at the wrong end, it would be a very stupid man that would have decided to throw away a year just to take the money, unless he doesn’t care about playing that is.

    Hopefully Sam isn't going anywhere, but neither is Hugilll,but we really need another option, I feel that Gru's son won't be the answer, neither will JJ if he's ever available.

    I too can see potential in McGuckin and Yeovil supporters were very praiseworthy. Got to play tonight but how much of the ball will he see ? !

    Hugill is 33yo. I don't think it's stupid to hang on for a year on his current wage vs moving on and earning 25/30% of that elsewhere. He also has a young family.

    Nombe - The club is skint. Looked like Hamshaw was touting him out to other clubs last week. If we're going to get decent money, he has to be sold now. He's not going to sign a new contract. I'm not sure any club is going to offer the numbers nentioned on these messagboards. If I was Hamshaw and the number was £2m+, I'd be saying to the chairman, I need 50% of the fee for squad building. We need more players and I'm not sure they will be forthcoming without cashing in on Nombe now. So let's hope he's not injured.

    McGuckin played off a big forward or wide right in a front 3 will get the best out of him. Hughill not got the height really to keep lunping high balls up to. Kayode & Etete need better & not such risks with injuries.

    We were after another forward before this so now we need two, let?s be honest what we have will struggle to get 8 goals each this season, and that means a bottom six position. You can?t win games if you don?t score goals, so this is a major crisis and anyone that doesn?t see that at the club is kidding themselves. If we have to reduce wages to pay for it then, some kids out of loan and sacrifice one or two midfielders.

    We have five strikers and your fretting about wanting 2 more. TS is not made of money. They all need paying for. If as you say "it's a major crisis" just go along for the ride M8. There's no use worrying yourself about what you can't control.
