And in a different era where top flight clubs didn’t hoover up everything that could kick a ball. The two big Manchester clubs have decimated that region. |

If this was late August and that was the squad for the season then I would be joining you in concerns about relegation. But as its early July, and with some possibly leaving freeing up spaces for some coming in, add in some loans and I think we will most likely end up roughly where we were, mid table. |

Honestly don’t blame Nourry for limiting the sharing of information! When everything is picked apart and fought over online. There is no way he wins in this situation, too much info not enough info people going to chat crap about it either way. Good luck to Marti if he has the Leicester gig, wish him all the best. Glad rangers got their comp despite the musings of people online. Can’t wait for the season to bloody start! |
 | Forum Reply | Taylor Richards finally going? at 15:50 8 Jul 2025
I wouldn't say Barton is 'suffering' from his mental health issues he seems ok with it impacting those he comes into contact with the way it does, no remorse. I suppose I take the view that people are not born bad! They are made through various forms of neglect, abuse and trauma. Anyway.... If we get 10 games out of Richards this season and it contributes to points then I'd take that as some form of payback, however small. Then get rid when his contract is up |

Feels like they are tying themselves up in knots, every time they close one loophole clubs find another to exploit. Biggest problem I see is the reduction in the number of players moving from the lower leagues in to the top flight. Stop premier league clubs stealing youth players and give clubs the chance to generate revenue. |

I just cannot see them going out and spending a few million on a left back even with the Eze money. Loan a more experienced player in and develop what we have would be more in line with the current approach. Strikers do seem to be somewhat different though, harder to loan in and much harder to find and develop. |

Can't see him moving down South at his age. Strikes me as a proper Northerner |
 | Forum Reply | Amadou Mbengue confirmed (n/t) at 20:01 26 Jun 2025
I actually agree with most of what you say regarding Nourry, he is coming across as quite impressive. Certainly the Bould appointment was a good surprise. But, its a tad unfair to sum up the Ferdinand era with the team that turned out against Watford two years ago. I would argue that both Ferdinand and Hoos guided the club through some tough times with interfering owners grabbing the wheel whenever they felt like it. Anyway, Mbengue looks a great signing. Couple more in this vein and we should be in reasonable shape. |

Under pressure from who? How do you know this? Loved watching the football under Cifuente’s, god did we need him after the ridiculous appointment of Ainsworth. For me, that was far worse than anything that has happened under Nourry’s watch. |

Its already an improvement (step in the right direction) to have players that clubs are interested in. Hope the club have faith in the system and their ability to coach him further. Do wonder whether he and his agent are engineering this as he does want to move though |

I think we had the advantage of being able to take players from clubs in the same division back then given we were seen as a bigger comparably. I bet even with the admin we were still paying more than many, (probably a large reason for the admin) |

Agree! I think that continued into the early 90's, probably until we got the Ferdinand money which was then spent poorly. But my god! That was a while ago now :) |

Trying to recall a recruitment team that got it right! I think the club historically has always recruited better when on a budget. The Madsen and Celar signings relatively speaking were small outlays that were unlikely to have immediate impact. Just a shame those small outlays were the majority the budget. Not going to join in with the bedwetters here with regards to Nourry, the jury is still out for me. |
