Yep. Of course Brighton will have other options. As will the lad himself. Loan or Sell ? Home or Abroad ? If sell, what fee ? But I'd love him back.

You are Mr. Wilkins Micawber and I claim my £20.

Cheeky twats, Bristol City. So, a couple of giant Victorian Plumbing 'derbies' next season. The tension can be felt already.

Lamine Yamal. Clearly will go far but fckg Danny Murphy is talking him up like he's Pele, Maradona & Messi rolled into one.

Fair point. I misread it. Sounds a bit Wiganish ... or Blackpool. The point remains though.

I get rivalry but turning down money is odd, even for Salford.

See the crowds & profile of other clubs, spending tens of millions & you do wonder how they're doing it. Or can sustain it.

Gets my vote. Two wingers, a strong centre forward, maybe 2. Stop the Pep-ball completely.

At 20 years old (21 2 weeks ago) he's played 93 Championship games, on loan, at Sheff Wed, Birmingham & Oxford. I'll live with him not being all that with the ball at his feet so long as he knows this & doesn't try to be.

So suddenly money's no object !

Albert Bisto ??

He's a pro aged 32. He HAS to have some capability. He showed a bit in those play offs but he had some baffling howlers You mention Billy Crellin. That was nothing about unfair treatment but having absolutely zero presence in the box. Only the young dudes.

Which is essentially the same thing.

Does this close the door on ACD ?

I'm not sure Taylor is gash, we didn't see almost anything of him. (OK, what little we did see was poor) but something wayward occurred. I expect him to return to Scotland.

What was Tobias Phoenix ?

Meanwhile ... Henderson.

It says a lot when Sepp fckg Blatter has called it out.

More or less £15m. pa. Plus, I assume a vast range of bonuses.

So £237 fees. Plus signing on fees for all 7 and we must assume serious wages. I read more were to come. Someone's broken into Gringott's Bank. I know Premier sustainability rules are different ... and they've come 17th both of the previous seasons but that's some spend.

Bristol City have signed their 6th new player.

We're now fishing in a fresh pond where fees are multiples above our pockets. I still think a bit of, for us, decent spend may occur, but late on. Meanwhile, buy good, solid, experienced leaders & then lets see what the loan market brings.

We are genuinely in a World of Banana Republiks.

You can only to so much with chilli.
