July 4, 20242 yr Interesting to see who some of our "rivals" are signing - so let's have a separate thread to keep the other one for BW chat. To kick off, Charlton replaced May with Godden from Coventry, looks an excellent signing for this level, 50 goals in 156 games. Brum partnering May with Juke potentially - Jutkiewicz signed a 1 year deal. Will be good to see him play here again, one of my favourite strikers of recent times. And Dan Udoh who looked a handful for Shrewsbury at our place a few months ago has signed for Wycombe.
July 4, 20242 yr I'm waiting on Sincey to demand a statement on where we are up to with our transfers. We've bought season tickets FFS.

Be interesting if they don't get promoted

Be interesting if they don't get promoted I'm not sure Jutkiewicz is the player he was a decade ago with us. He doesn't worry me. (Until he's bullying Toal for a header and scoring winner at ours).

Agreed he's not at his peak but Juke is nearly 3 years younger than Jerome and has never played below the championship. Pick any season in the last 10 and Juke scored more than Jerome every time, often at a higher level, apart from last season (3 each). I'm not knocking Jerome because I could see what he contributed but Juke is better.

But I accept there's not much difference, they've both had good careers above the level we are at now, proper leaders of the line and popping up with their share of goals. And it doesn't matter does it 😀

And it doesn't matter does it 😀 tbf, I always had CJ down as a shite PL striker, became a running joke with some mates that we noticed whenever we happened to see him on SKY he really was turd though I didn't even know / recall that Juke had ever played in the PL either

Can't believe he only scored 20 for us!
