    Alex Pike season long loan from West Ham?

    19 year old medium build right back. West Ham would be looking to us to develop him which casts a shadow over Solly. He is the same age as our Ashley Barnes an attack minded, excitable right back of our own so this one is a bit of a hmmmmmm possibility.

    I think you mean Aaron Barnes

    Ashley Barnes is that angry chap who plays up top for Burnley sometimes

    Agree - couldn't really expect more for him and i never really expected him to stay. Don't feel disappointed with this one - it's the Bauers and Kashis that I am waiting to see what will happen to.

    Both of those two will be here for the first half of the season, I think the injuries from last season will mean interested parties will want to see how they have recovered.
  • He had a touch of the Rezas about him this season - not wanting to get hurt before a major tournament. He was lucky that a) the whole team were shit and b) he bought himself fan's patience with a good season prior.

    JBG cannot be classed as a Div 3 player in any sense! He hasn't kicked a ball at that level, however he did shine in s struggling team during his time in the Championship so a transfer to the likes of Burnley probably about right. I was not blown away by his performance at the Euros so also reckon the fee is about right

    So we are not a third division team? Burnley are not a premier league team? Holmes has not played for Charlton but is a Charlton player. JBG plays for Charlton, we are a third division team, therefore JBG is a third division player
  • JBG in my opinion is not the type of player suitable for third tier football, he doesn't roll up his sleeves often enough for me and not great at defensive duties.

    However no doubt about his skill on the ball, be interesting to see how much game time he gets in premier league.
  • Why did they accept the lower bid then RedHenry

    Because he has a clause in his contract with a minimum release value that Burnley have met.

    Seemed alright at the defensive stuff against England. Maybe having better players around him helped?

    And it possibly could have been a top tier release clause, which Norwich couldn't activate as a Championship club, hence their higher offer.
  • Everybody agreed that we needed a full squad rebuild this pre-season. 3 seemingly good signings so far, but a little worrying that we need several more and there's not much news on any others.

    Welling on Saturday. Don't think I'm wrong in remembering an exciting buzz for that game during the Powell summer rebuild - everybody hoping to get a look at all the new players.

    Possibly or it maybe that England didn't have a clue like all the other games they played.

    thanks @Dazzler21. Begs the question, why did Norwich bid more than his release fee? They must be stupid, maybe we could get them interested in Bergdich, Ba and Ceballos?

    I'd assume it was due to their parachute money, they expected to get us to agree on a higher fee and probably didn't expect a premier league club to swoop in.

    Just assumptive work but I think in this circumstance it may work.
