Pretending that there's some truth in it for a moment, the only reason I can see us going for another midfielder when we're supposedly skint is we're fairly certain at least one will be on his way in January. I wouldn't be shocked if we have our ducks in a row with regards to targets if we're anticipating bids for players. Of course these may or may not materialise but I'd rather we have a gameplan if movement does happen than freeing up space and then looking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that Erhahon's contract runs out in June, we might try to get some cash for him. McCalmont seems to be a defensive midfielder, so a like for like replacement. Of course, Gogic would be first choice replacement. Also, now that Ferdinand is Erhahon's agent, that might enhance his chances of getting a decent move. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I know is that it’s a great photo of a World Cup legend, and Lionel Messi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishBhoy Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Love how Messi looks happier to be getting a picture with Keanu than Keanu does seen a few clips on Twitter with most of the Australian team getting a picture with Messi after the game. I would have done the same, and it’s good to see that he’s happy to stand about for photos when he could have easily told them to bolt. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djchapsticks Posted December 6, 2022 Author Share Posted December 6, 2022 Can safely say that Ethan will be on his way so we could well cash in on him in January. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, just saw him sharing all that stuff on Instagram. Anton Ferdinand hyping him up. Absolutely no way they're going to this trouble to sign a new deal. Makes me think we'll do everything we can to hang onto Baccus until the summer. Losing 2/3 starting midfielders in January, even with Gogic available, would be a disaster. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's earned a shot somewhere else and probably would already have been playing league 1 or championship level down south if not for the last couple of years as apparently the Barnsley loan move being made permanent was a total goer before covid hit. He's immensely talented and I have always been a fan. Some of our support still give him a bit of shit and it's mostly unwarranted, he's one of those guys who we'll appreciate once he's gone. If we can pull a decent January fee for him and he's adamant he won't entertain a new deal then probably best for all parties to go separate ways next month if the interest is there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get more stock in so everyone who wants one can get one. It certainly deserves another season. Why not? It’s a proven hit. We most likely won’t be with Joma next year so that rules that one out unfortunately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense as no 'fan option' for home kits have been put out this year. Imagine they won't either as first year of new contracts with kit suppliers, you usually take what you get. Wonder who we'll go with - I'd like to see us go the Macron route, their stuff seems good quality. Failing that, something a bit more out there like Le Coq Sportif or something would be great. They did Fiorentina and St. Etienne recently and their stuff looks pretty good. Edited December 6, 2022 by djchapsticks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coventry Saint Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 I wonder what's ended the Joma deal. I think the strips have been good - shame about the supply issues, especially this summer, but I don't think anybody could have foreseen that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kempes Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Michael O'Neill has been lined up for the Northern Ireland job, so that's another potential move for SR we can stop worrying about. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
