"Bowyer is hoping to have Cullen, Lyle Taylor and Sam Field available for the derby against Fulham."
Jesus wept.....are our players made of glass or what !!! Cullen got a ball on his toe & jarred his knee....wtf ?? Bert Trautman played the Cup final with a fucking broken arm.
With regard to any new signings...........doesn't really matter that much now. Have to be signed by midday tomorrow to be able on play on Wednesday so might as well forget any signings until Friday week as in case the club have forgotten WE DONT HAVE ANYMORE GAMES UNTIL AFTER THE WINDOW HAS SHUT.
First time Nixon has said we have offered a 'fair' wage, normally says we are cheapos
Both Peterborough's owner and manager have already said our offer to Maddison was fairly decent.
I haven't seen Dmac say anywhere it was a good offer, not saying that isn't true just haven't seen it myself. All I read was Maddison was buzzing and London isn't an issue, Nixon before did say we offered poor wages, this was recently and in the past, also suggested that Bowyer needs to see if the owners have money basically. That's why I thought it was relevant to point out what Nixon had said
To be honest mate - that is exactly how it seems to me. People telling me I shouldn't make assumptions are the ones making the bigger assumptions in my book. I am just looking at it and trying to understand why things that should have happened haven't happened. Ok, it is really difficult to sign players in January, but why haven't they managed to sign up Bowyer? They haven't bought all of the club either. Just f*ing do something positive. Is that really an unreasonable expectation.
I feel like I'm probably coming across as a WUM at times but it's genuine. I understand people want to be positive because of what we just got through but nothing has been shown yet that we are much better off. Roland failed yes but even he when he came in brought in a certain level of player that had pedigree, TBH, Bikey, JBG, Igor etc, none would have been cheap at all. In the end that model failed granted because we had terrible scouts and managers. We have this habbit of being ecstatic very early, I can think of many examples but one that stands out the most was Roger Johnson, check his first match report. Had people calling him a warrior etc, few weeks later he's judas.
I bought into Southall's interview but since then all I've seen is words. I don't blame people for being positive just as much as I don't see the harm in people being negative, again it's expected after the past decade.
I hope I'm completely wrong but my gut does tell me we are going to be severely underwhelmed
Not convinced on this. A guy who played for a Shrewsbury side who finished 18th in league one and now can't even get in the Rangers side, is perhaps not the player we need ready and able to walk into a championship teams midfield.
No doubt a better option to have than the likes of Dempsey and Vennings but with players like Cullen, Field and Oztumer coming back, i don't see him adding much.
My Rangers season ticket holding mate messaged me earlier saying he would do a job for us, same guy also said Joe Dodoo would tear it up though so I don't really pay much attention to him
Me saying if he isn't good enough for Scottish top flight so league 1 is about right is to wind him up, there is deffo quality in Scotland

I don't know how Shrewsbury finishing 18th is much of a reflection on a single player, though.

Being able to walk anywhere is a massive improvement on a lot of our players right now though.

Where did Wimbledon finish with Taylor scoring goals?
A throw away from Rangers is the same as a Bostock, the throw away from Forest. Admittedly knowing absolutely nothing about the lad, but come on, a sub from Scottish football..

Loans are usually subs
No they are not. Teams usually weight the deal that the more appearances the player makes, the less you pay them.
Loans are more likely to play than be a sub, although in this case I can see Docherty being a sub more than playing.

No @Covered End ... He was complaining the bloke is only a sub at Rangers. If he wasn't a sub he wouldn't be getting loaned out.

Yeah, I mean I’d take a sub Chelsea (Gallagher), West Ham (Cullen). But not teams that are not a lot better than us.

Scottish football is rubbish but I think Rangers are decent.

I’d argue the top two are slightly better than us, squad players from slightly better than us are hardly going to make an impact, generally speaking.
A friend of mine at work is a Shrewsbury Town season ticket holder, he says Docherty is technically a very good player but you must play to his strengths, he was just in a poor team but was the standout player. I suppose, if we get him, it'll be time to comment on him after a game or two.

@Redmidland - surely you have been on here long enough to know that the time to judge him is before we have even signed him and before he's even kicked a ball for us. C'mon, play the game.

It makes sense to bring loan players in. Firstly, because perms will want to know the position with Bowyer and which division we will be playing in next year. Secondly, if they are not great and we get them in because we are desperate, we are not stuck with them. Now this Docherty may not be as good as our injured players or players coming back to fitness, but he sounds like a player we could do with now. And when better players come back, if they are better and don't get injured again, he can still do a job from the bench. This is the sort of thing we needed to be making happen 20 days ago!

Where's the fun in that RM let's write him off now and be underwhelmed 😏.
