    If playing 4 at the back that is it sorted

    RB - Ramsay & Danny
    LB - Edwards & Ivan M
    CB - Jones, Bell, Billy, Collins, Reece B & Gough.
    Maybe Gough will go out on loan, and we know Burke has his injury issues.

    Even so, if we are moving to a back 4, which seems likely, surely we are going to have to move on more CBs?
    Not when you consider Bell Burke Koumetio and Sichenje haven’t always had the best injury records. Maybe it’s one/two more CB than you tend to have but in this case I think it’s necessary to do so

    I wouldn’t have thought so, as you say Goigh may go on loan and Burke is always injured, Bell is additional cover for left back. I’d say that’s a decent amount of players. Plus Collins and Gough have both played in DM in the past too.

    Looks like we’re watching the budget carefully.
    Over the years players we have signed from Millwall have tended to be OK without being sensational.
    Cripps, Dunphy, Walker, some others I have forgotten.
    If McNamara is reasonable he will only get abuse (being ex Millwall) if he isn’t prepared to give everything for the shirt.
    This is a wait and see signing.
    Not really the wages we’re paying are a lot more coming in then the players going out .. plus it leaves key money for the important positions further up the pitch which always cost more then defenders 
    Do you know the wages the incomings will be getting?
    I find it hard to believe Mesik, Koumetio and Sichenje are on big wages considering the clubs they’ve joined from.

    Grant would make sense being on a bigger wage, McNamara to an extent.

    Hopefully we’ve got a decent budget for these last few attacking signings.

    Well, looks like we can put 'wouldn't play for rival team' with 'no player would want to play for that manager' in the nonsense things fans say pile

    Danny McNamarra from Millwall
    Never in a million years i know his family he will never play for us.
    I assume you don't know these family members?
    He’s the family and friends McNamara is talking about ;)

    Doubt McNamara is on huge wages as he just seemed happy to be in the Championship too, he must have been expecting to go to Scotland or into L1

    We do need a couple of wingers now though. Redmond + a more expensive starter 
    Ideally we bring in 2 new right wingers but I’d rather keep Apter around than sign Redmond

    I still think a chance Coady comes back att he end of the window if any budget left and a deal can be done with Wrexham. Good to have around the place and casn be a CB cover and Centre mid option.

    Although it looks like 4-2-3-1 is our plan A, I’m sure we will still see the 3 at the back this season in the tougher games and when we are trying to see out wins. A good pool of centre backs is needed

    So it's probably a number 6, a number 8 and 2 wingers left to get?

    Whether it’s a 4 or 5 we have definitely got enough in that backline in terms of depth and quality presuming Ramsay stays.

    Hopefully we’ve gone as cheap as possible in the backline whilst still getting championship quality players to use the majority of the funds in the midfield and forward line

    Another defender. Another free transfer. Still no midfielder signed. Bedwetters assemble.

    Don't mind the last two signings, they're both very likely to be starting on the bench, but what it means now is, where before we have had to play a Fullah or Gough, Enslin etc to cover we now have two very solid Championship experienced players to step in. 

    And in their actual positions! No more Hernadezeseses!

    Where's the queue? Should I just follow the trail of piss?

    I still hold on to the (probably misguided) hope that Rak-Sakyi will come back.

    I think Gallen will sign him for Millwall when they sell Azeez

    That would make 8 signings Jones said we expected 5-7. Guessing it will be a CM and Winger at the absolute minimum and then may go and get an additional winger or midfielder if something pops up

    Your Millwall mate doesn’t happen to know McNamara’s family does he?

    Wages are generally guesswork.
    He is a budget signing, as is Grant, wages or not.

    That would be amazing. Would love another year of Coady, thought he brought so much to us last season that will be hard/impossible to replicate with another signing in the transfer market.

    Or using our budget well and saving the money so we have more to spend on more important areas of the squad?

    Sorry if it’s already been mentioned but apparently we’re interested in Hull winger Abu Kamara

    How much would people like us to have spent on our back up RB? Because if we’d spent loads and he sat on the bench there would be complaints then too 
    We need squad depth, and that's what we're getting, and yet unless we blow a load of cash on second choice players, the bores go on and on with nonsense like skint.
