Thread | Most impressive opposition players in the Championship?
at 12:35 5 May 2024
Everyone dreaming about signings yet? From a more reasonable perspective, here's a list of players I thought might be interesting buys for Town, either as projects or finished articles. These are based purely on my watching them play against us and in an odd match I picked up here and there over the season. No stats included or anything. So feel free to share what players left an impression on you this season.
Michael Cooper - GK - good with feet and with hands, good age for a GK
Jacob Greaves - CB - seems like a physically stronger version of Woolfie
Ethan Laird - RB - was fantastic against us, completely dominated our left flank
Milan Van Ewijk - RB - was very good in both games against us
Kenneth Paal - LB - again, was very good against us, some proper legs and lungs on him
Ben Sheaf - CM/DM - looks a great fit for our pivot MF
Wouter Burger - CM/DM - looks classy and a good range of passing
Joe Aribo - CM/DM - completely dominated and not lost a single duel in the game at PR
Will Smallbone - CM/DM - I just liked how he playes
Flynn Downes - CM/DM - obviously the history is there, but he does seem like a good fit for this system, no?
Jobe Bellingham - AM - I think he will be an amazing player and should get him asap before he commands a 40-50m fee
Jack Clarke - AM - tricky and productive, makes thinks happen, good age
Callum O'Hare - AM - looks to me a bit more calm version of Chaplin (although with a weaker shot on him)
Samuel Edozie - FW - very fast, very tricky, good project
Tyrhys Dolan - FW - looked great against us at Ewood park, very technical and fast
Jay Stansfield - FW - looks a good prospect, Idk if he's still interesting now we're in the PL
Liam Delap - FW - would rather have him than Stansfield tbh
Emmanuel Latte Lath - FW - I think one of the best strikers in the Championship this season, I watched most Boro games of all other teams and everything they ever did was involving him
Sinclair Armstrong - FW - built like on ox, good project while on low fee?
Purely based on assumption they will win the POs and get in the PL so their players would be out of a reasonable price range for us, Leeds players are not in the list. But here are a few I surely wouldn't mind in the chance they don't make it up this year:
Georginio Rutter
Crysencio Summerville
Joël Piroe
Ethan Ampadu
PS
No Norwich players, wouldn't shop there in any scenario. |

Thread | Barnsley-Bolton League 1 playoffs
at 19:50 3 May 2024
Trying to take my mind off Saturday and stop reading the news and threads on here for the 4th time, I decided to take a look at Barnsley v. Bolton.
Boy, after 15 minutes I returned on here. The game is unwatchable. Just running and hoofing, no 3 sensible passes put together. Is it me or these two teams were one of the better ones last season in L1? Is this how far we've come? Or did they become so much worse? In the meantime?
Roll on Saturday!
and as soon as I posted Bolton go on and score a pretty good goal... ta [Post edited 3 May 19:57]

Reading the comments, you'd say we're a pretty sh*te team. Passing from the back is awful, defense awful, goalie awful, we keep not stuffing other sh*te teams in this sh*te league, God only knows how we do score goals, we don't have what it takes when it's make or break... basically we'll be the worst promoted team ever in the history of the championship and will do so purely because Leeds and Southampton are more sh*te than us.
This is how reading some of the rants feels like. Some of the comments do beggar belief.
In the meantime, we play good entertaining football, exciting matches, broke how many records for the newly promoted team and keep the promotion to the PL in our own hands in what is maybe the toughest Championship season ever.
Honestly weird perception from some. Counter-rant over. :) |

...that was the best ref we've had all year. Absolutely nailed on all game and all the replays confirmed all of his decisions. Can we have him every game? |
