6 hours ago, jmjhb said: There certainly is considering the Swedish lad has played 13 games total.
One they see enormous potential in and view the price worth paying, especially as other clubs will no doubt have noticed.
One they paid nothing for, have sent out on loan to lower league clubs twice already, and don't appear to view him as ready for the first team yet.
Reportedly, they are in talks over a new contract, but the lad himself may feel that he needs to look elsewhere, given new arrivals.
So quite clear different situations, and prospective transfer fees will be poles apart.
Whether we could afford that fee, who knows, but of course it would also depend upon how much any club is prepared to offer, and how much the lad wants to stay or go.

Rupert Lowe is an over educated idiot who like Farage accepts a lot of overseas money to make waves politically in the UK.
Over educated?
What the hell is that- one minute slagging off a bloke in Makerfield for being a bit numb, then accusing folk of being too educated?
Truly ridiculous.
Moreover, Lowe is the only MP who doesn't take his salary- he is wealthy enough not to.
Don't know about his party's funding specifically, but in general they can take funds from wherever so long as it's above board.

6 minutes ago, ianofcleveleys said: Definitely a bit of agent getting busy in it, though Blackburn might not be quite as hamstrung this year, I've heard from my mate who's an ST there that Venkys may be able to be a bit freer with the cash due to settling a long running issue with the Indian Government regarding funds being transferred out of the country.
Those new rules won't permit big spending, even if they have plenty available.

Probably not, though he looked OK last preseason, until breaking his wrist.
A full year in proper league football behind him now, so who knows.
I doubt many of us saw Conway being used so much this year, and our manager seemed keen to get Warren in.
Guess we'll see in good time.

I’m not sure.
Personally I like the wingers. It’s been so exciting and refreshing. A big part of our success this year.
But next year is a completely different challenge and I see the line of thought that going away to West Ham and Burnley without a more solid approach would be risky - we’d need wingers who track back.
So with only Gale left currently (mad to think we’ve lost 4 of them!) I could see why we might favour a different approach.
Interesting few months ahead on the recruitment front.
Maybe SS is planning a look at Warren as one of them.

I can't see the comparison with Kenny, who isn't a "goalscorer", more of a forward that has pace, can create and score. Wareham very much a fox in the box.
I didn't realise that was his first (and last probably) season at Exeter, was at Reading season before.
Played all 46 league games last season.
Agree Burstow won't be coming back, not for the championship.
Well, for a non-goalscorer he seems to be able to score goals.
Happy to create too.
Happy days.

Farage just made an absolute cock of himself on PMQs. Pretty much encouraging Laxley and the protests.
imo
He's always kept TR at arms length, even further at times. In return, TR has been very critical. That recent march and speeches showed a different approach by TR, and a more conciliatory attitude towards Reform.
Maybe things are afoot behind the scenes, as the parties on the right begin to realise they can't afford to keep tearing lumps out of each other.
A path they will have to navigate with care.

Just welled up again, you git! 😀
Not sure I've ever skriked so much- going to need intravenous fluids at this rate.
Just been to a loch in a forestry area, where we have videos of all three playing a few years back.
Pissing down, loads of tears, but the other two love it. Grieving and healing in action.

Scored 19 L1 goals for a relegated team. Far more than any of our players. I was quite impressed by him in our 5-1 win; he scored their goal and put himself about.
More of a Kenny than Dalby type. Speaking of whom, if Kenny doesn’t sign, we do need at least two forwards, as I can’t see us bringing Burstow back.
Aye, had a decent season.
I have a suspicion that Burstow won't be back, unless there is a very low cost.
I agree that we would need a couple, unless Warren is considered.
Could see McAtee being let go if an offer is reasonable too.

I doubt it
I doubt his actions, or inaction, woudl have made a difference
it's just a shite attitude
would he have been desperately trying to help resusciate the lad if he'd been stabbed by a white lad?
I doubt it
struggling to see anything other than a cop with a generally shit attitude
but nothing that shoudl result in riots
Why?
They believed the report of a racist attack, and ignored comments from others on scene.
Minds made up before getting there.
Without that "racism" accusation they would have more likely done what they should have- treat the scene as was presented to them upon arrival.
In other words, a man claiming to have been stabbed, with witnesses confirming it.

it would've been better the week before at Port Vale with the pitch invasion and all that
it was expected v Peterborough, to not would have been a travesty
Absolutely it would.
Still a great day, and any nerves over the potential failure were quickly eradicated.
Thinking about it, the Crawley game was similar.
Away, but needed the result.
Solid, comfortable win.

The "quality" of candidates and mps varies hugely, no doubt about that.
Some of them are incredible intellects, with a deep understanding of law.
Others have experience of a particular field, but may not be "academic".
Some simply want to work for their constituents, and don't have a great desire to go any further- and may not have the ability to do so.
Others simply have a desire to use whatever means they have to climb the greasy pole and ascend to the top.

Transfer Gossip
in Terrace Talk
Depends exactly how much they're offering and how much he wants to play.
Long term, he may be better off (including financially) to play games.
