Some of our better players have been relegated (Gana with Villa, Tarkowski with Burnley). I wouldn’t read too much into that. The one player I’d like from last season’s relegated teams is Omari Hutchison but Ipswich want £35m and Brentford are...

I appreciate that Myers is now on the outside looking in, but he doesn’t have to be so miserable. There’s plenty of us that can be miserable without his input.

Training on the pitch...all saying it's too small I think... 😋

Benj takes his own pool cue to the pub.

I’m yet to be convinced we actually have the finances to do that. We’ve spent a fair chunk of coin on Barry out of absolute necessity due to Calvert Lewis leaving, but as to the overall budget, that is still to be determined. Roma...

As of today the window has been open for 47 days (with a week off in June). I was hoping for 2-3 new outfield signings in that time, especially for known problem positions like right back and right wing.

That’s the worry. A month is no time when you’ve let go as many players as we have.

It’s now down to the new owners. The fans continue to back the team (and swallow ticket price increases for now) but if the owners can’t improve the squad we will eventually go down.

Brighton, Brentford, Fulham, Bournemouth did a lot of business in the year they came up. It can work if you have a good scouting and recruitment set up. Time will tell with Sunderland but they have a fighting chance.

Haha. 35 year old Luke Garbutt.

I think they fly out early next week so I would assume that’s unlikely. I think the narrative for the US tour will quickly change to “we’re giving the youth players a chance to impress”.

Spot on. Don’t know why the guy believes signing late is a good sign. Most likely panic buys.

Beto will start the season, I’m pretty sure of that.

I think we have to assume any rebuild will take place over a number of years. We’ve managed to clear out a lot of players this summer but it will be impossible to fully replenish the squad immediately with the financial restrictions we face...
