This is where Town being in a cup competition would be a benefit.

Jewell: We Would Have Lost Earlier in the Season
at 19:13:18

Terrific performance, haven't seen a performance like that from a town team for years. Crowd 19k+ were really good, great day out in the sun! Atmosphere getting back to play-off days just need a few more to turn up.

Brighton were a decent side, anytime we took our foot off the gas they looked dangerous and took their goal very well.

Bullard hugely influencial and was everywhere despite the heat.

Sonko and Collins are so good together, needs to be permanent.

Etherington look really good and very sharp when we came on. A good team and a good bench.

Czech Midfielder on Trial
at 13:10:13

I see that the Liverpool defender we targetted was in the Norwich team last night against MK Dons. I expect they are now focussing on the league!

Could be an interesting development if he is good enough.

Hope the club get a good look as the two Slovenian defenders, Marko Suler (CB) and Aljaž Struna (RB) as well, they both look very solid, skilful and full of running.

Build from the back.

Marko Suler - quick, strong, two footed, can pass and head the ball. I don't see why not, looks a great addition and can cover either of the two CB positions.

Jewell: Offer in to Premier League Club
at 12:43:56

I'm in the positive camp with optimus_ryan21, WickedBlue, victorywilhappen et al

We know where the handful of problems are, we are trying to buy the right players, we have some money to spend and we are only a few games into the season with a manager who has the right experience and is well liked in the game.

Most of the players PJ has brought in are good signing and we are building a team with loads of potential for this season and next.

I too think we will have the last laugh

Kennedy: Players Need to Look at Themselves
at 13:04:45

I would have suggested Andrews but currently I think he is on loan with a view to buy?

I think all the messing about before he joined us was because Blackburn wanted to wait until the transfer window closed and it was pressure from Town that got his early release.

"Who would you have as captain ?"

Perhaps the fact we are posting comments on Mark Kennedy's not Grant Leadbitter's news item answers that question!

Thanks for the posts, much prefer your content than the negative stuff, we have some good players and some problem areas. Everyone knows that CB and RB are our weaknesses (plus a play maker to really make it all gel).

I guess PJ has been looking for an instant quality premiership proven defender, which I can understand and if Ingimarsson had stayed fit that would have worked out OK. Ingimarsson made a good start but we now know that he is going to have injury problems and we need someone solid and dependable now while we look around for that perfect player.

Interesting comment about Marko Suler, as you say would work well with our potential Slovenian RB signing. He has international experience, 27 senior games and two goal, is likely to be very solid but two footed and with some ball skills as well.

Sounds like a very good spot.

Who would you have as captain ?

Jewell Apologises for Worst Defeat in Management
at 19:03:45

I know we are waiting for premier defenders to become available after the transfer window closes but how about a dip into League 1 for a defender from clubs such as MK Dons. Lewington or Doumbe would be good targets to play alongside someone like Sol Campbell or a premier loanee. Would offering Lewington to be captain and the club a big fee be tempting?

At right back bringing forward the signing of Aljaž Struna would allow Edwards to move up to right midfield.

Being greedy I would chase Bullard offering him the equivalent of a transfer fee as a signing on fee to make up for our lower wage structure.

Remember the first game of the season. We had a defender.

We will get two defenders in September and then we will be OK, more than OK.

We need a leader and that person probably a CD needs to be the captain.

The problem is that until then we will ship shed loads of goals.

Premier League Clubs Interested in Bullard
at 18:24:30

I don't agree with the idea we can't buy him now he is a free agent. It could make it easier, as we can use the money that would have been a sign-on fee to bargain with.

As people say its with JB, if he is really interested then a deal should be possible.

Bullard\'s Hull Contract Terminated
at 14:53:33

My thinking is IF we don't want to completely blow the wages structure, if we don't have to pay a transfer fee to Hull and if we want to win his contract against other clubs...

If someone had said Bullard is available to us on a £2m transfer and we were signing him for on a two year deal what would be the reaction then?

Pay him a 'golden welcome' e.g. £2m and £20k per week for a two year contract. That's £4m over two years, sounds like a good deal for both parties.

Sonko Waiting for Town Offer
at 11:05:53

RB
Just seen Aljaz Struna YouTube 'promotional' video. I know these things are the best bits but he does look the part - send him his airline ticket now!

CD
Go to MK Dons or similar and spend some Wickham money. We can then relax a bit and watch the Premier loan market for someone if we still need them without a panic buy.

Sonko Waiting for Town Offer

"Most urgent is the centre of defence. We have to either spend big money on proven ability or get someone young and hungry from the lower leagues. Or both."

We should go for both! We have some money, good facilities and the basis of a good team so an audacious big bid for who we want from league one or the championship. The sort of bid that most chairmen would struggle to refuse. Maybe offer cash and add a couple of loan players as well.
