Ok lets get the ball rolling: transfer rumours 2020/1

[caytonmiller]

Hasn't shape just signed a contract extension?

There would be a nice symmetry to billy sharp playing his last matches at the NYS as, and not everybody knows this, he started his career at RUFC (albeit youth terms only). Talk about one that got away.

I also hear what you say about will grigg but if someone can reignite him theres no doubting he scores goals. I'm not convinced Ladapo will score in the championship (hope I'm wrong) and smithy is not there for his goal scoring.

I still reckon we should raid your boys and pinch Woodrow (&#128521. That said, I've got a weird feeling you'll stay up. I think this covid stuff will play into your hands: no crowds etc. That said, I'm guilty of doing what I accuse you of doing. Namely deflecting a Millers topic over to barnsley, so dont reply (kidding).

Grumps

The transfer market might be about to fall out of the sky but Cauley Woodrow is still a top championship striker .

I'm sure you can figure the rest out for yourself with regards to your club .

I know mate, I'm being mischievous.

Our model is to spot upcoming talent and develop. At championship level we simply cant afford the finished article. As much as anything that's because of wages.

I dont particularly have a problem with that philosophy because, above absolutely everything else, I still want a club to support in 20 years. When we got relegated last time from the championship we made a profit of £2m. Can you believe that a championship club IN PROFIT. Needless to say we were the only one.

The time to buy Cauley Woodrow was when you were last in the Championship , you'd still have made a profit of £1m and may even have stayed up .

The one player on our books who may well be available is Malik Wilks .

Personally I think there's a player in there but our HC clearly doesn't like the lad and sent him out on loan to Hull City where he's performed fairly well

Can play wide left or as a central striker .

Someone like Warne would get a tune out of this kid I'm certain because he's got talent in abundance but the attitude needs to be worked on .

We have another poster on here who often says 'there's a player in there' and he's more wrong than right although he would say he's more right than wrong

The Donny lad?

Well he's a Leeds born lad but had a season long loan at Donny last season .

Biggest compliment I can give Wilks is that I'd be gutted to see him leave because I think it would be a massive mistake on our part .

However our HC has his own ideas and if your face doesn't fit then that's generally that in football .

He is indeed doing well at Hull City and they have an option to sign him.
Why give him a four year contract and then look to get rid 12 months later.?
Certainly looks talented enough.....with the right team.
