    Saw on Twitter that Church is off to MK Dons. Don't understand twitter though so I might have this totally wrong.

    Church signed for MK Dons. That's a couple of goals guaranteed for him next season.
    Probably against us.

    I think the official term is 'whoosh'

    Confirmation of Church to MK Dons.

    "Churchy is a really top lad, a good player and can score goals. He will add tremendous quality to our team," said Nobody.

    He 'can score goals'...

    Yeah sure, he just chooses not to.

    Such a shame. All the move on'ers won't let us mention Spongefoot. A name to be cherished.

    Genuinely - good luck Churchy. Maybe he lacked quality - but he ran himself into the ground and for that he should be applauded.

    and be rewarded with 5k a week?

    Luzon loves a big man, doesn't he? I think Watt is the smallest he's signed, as he's 6ft 1.

    the way of the modern English, and increasingly worldwide, game ... mostly big lads with a sprinkling of smaller nimble little fellas

    I'd run myself into the ground for that sort of money

    No you wouldn't, you'd be blowing out of your arse after 10 minutes like the rest of us while defenders strolled past you. He might not have been a great goalscorer but the game never passed Churchy by. He always kept the defenders working

    Trouble is I expect you'd hit the ground after 5 minutes.

    I would now cause I'm 40, but I'd still run my nuts off.....at the end of the day he's an average player earning a decent wage, L1 standard at best, good luck to him - but I reckon half the women in the WC have got a harder shot than him

    (he'll still score against us next season)

    You'd be getting a good young defender who is comfortable on the ball if this is true.

    Anybody can score goals.
  • Good luck to Buyens, although i will miss just knowing us winning a penalty was as good as a goal with him on the pitch.

    Such a load of rubbish. He may not have cut it here for us, but he made it to Championship, and International, level football. Quite clearly a better footballer than anyone on this board, whether we like it or not.

    Thanks Horns. Haven't seen a lot of him but he struck me as more composed than some of the erratic CB's.

    Would you see him more as a left back or maybe a centreback by trade? Because if Wiggins does go that's going to leave us short in both and I want to know which I should be complaining about. :wink:

    I think it is wrong to assume Fox will not improve further and quickly. He started the season as a weak link and became a player that was an integral part of the team. He is not a wing back in the Wiggins mould but has a sweet left foot and was notching up assists.

    Centre half really but has played at full back quite a few times and looked fairly solid.

    Not the quickest though.

    Sure. But if we are listening to offers for Wiggins and one comes in, then we'll have Fox (better than some would credit, and ever-improving) and as back-up, there would be... wait... erm... one of the kids? And that always has potential to backfire quite badly, no matter what potential they have. I would be much happier having Hoban as an option instead of praying a left-footed Gomez turns up.

    Doesn't look great with his feet but Makienok seems very much how you'd expect a 6'7 striker to be, strong, lanky piece of flick-ons!

    Back up, we have Holmes-Dennis. A very good prospect imo.

    From what I hear H-D is going to be one heck of a player for sure. But he's very, very young and inexperienced. Gomez coming in and looking like he's been playing for years is the exception, not necessarily the rule. I would be much happier with more experienced back up instead of gambling that lightning will strike twice.
