    If Lyle got our very very very unlikely playoff ambitions back on track why on earth wouldn’t anyone want him back. Without a player of his ability both this and next season we won’t be going anywhere.

    Some things are more important than success on the pitch. What he did was unforgivable and I hope the club wouldn’t sacrifice their morals for a mercenary who sold us down the river. 

    The season is over, we could have Ronaldo up front and we still wouldn’t make 6th.
    He is 45 and about 18 stone though. 
  • Jack Payne is one of those players who has been linked with us a few times over the years . I would only sign him for 18 months and then review the situation . I agree that he might not fit in  to the Championship , but he could be part of a promotion squad next season . As a left footer he does offer us something different or can we rely on JFC ? 

    He fits one of our patterns for new signings . He is currently injured .

  • Can't believe Coutinho has signed for Villa.  What a signing that is for them!!

    Exactly.

    I am in the minority, would take him back in a heartbeat.

    What happened before, happened. He could have played and we still go down. And yes I know it’s not about that, it’s what happened and how it happened and how it was all about him and we would have had a better chance but we still could have gone down.

    Being so precious and holding onto that pain from before to ensure we inflict more pain on ourself by standing still in this awful league makes no sense. It’s insane.

    If he were to ever come back (which he won’t now) he’d likely make the difference between success and failure. Turning down success when the club desperately needs it, beyond me.

    Anyway, Aneke on his way and least we should enjoy watching him when he’s on the pitch for the rest of this season. 
    Do you genuinely believe we’d make the play-offs (what is the gap, 14 points?) if we signed Lyle Taylor in January? 
  • When Taylor was on the actual pitch playing for us I thought he was very good and best of all gave everything.
    And scored goals.
    As a player great, the other things matter if he is no good on the pitch, hides, and doesn’t score goals.

    The difference is that Taylor isn't the only striker in the world capable of scoring enough goals for us to get us into the championship. We need a striker yeah but specifically we don't need him.

    midfield is no way a priority .. defence and attack are
  • Lyle Taylor .. YES Please 
    Chuks Aneke .. NO Thanks
  • Dont know much Jack Payne but if he speeds up Albies exit then happy days. 

    I see his Swindon so is Jon Fortune his agent? As he brokered the DJ transfer also so not sure if he represented a couple more players there.

    But he might be the only one we can get where we know 100% what he can do.
  • I’d love Chuks to be our impact sub for the rest of the season but I think the Stockley injury changes things as we all know you can’t rely in Chuks for 90mins every Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday.

    The info on Jayden all seems quite vague so my gut is telling me it’s not a 2 week injury.

    tbh the best of the 3 strikers is Lyle, he’s a significant upgrade on Stockley & Chuks ( if motivated) but while I wouldn’t mind I think too much water has oasssd under that bridge.


  • Lyle Taylor isn't coming back. The bloke is so arrogant he actually think we fans treated him poorly when he left.

    Was thinking about this myself. 
    His ego and attitude, and that fact he came out and said he openly loves getting stick from fans.

    surely he’d love to come back and prove the fans wrong etx
  • I think Chuks will come back on loan.
    He scored for Brum the other day. Maybe they’ll want to keep him.

    We already one injury, suspension, Covid case away from Watson and Morgan.  Jackson's willingness to use neither of them shows what he thinks of them. 
  • I always remember being told by one of LT’s good friends that he was furious with Bow.

    Apparently after he made the decision to leave Bow & him agreed it would be kept in house but Bow then broke his word and went to the press and LT was steaming that a trust had been broken and wouldn’t play for him again.

    Ive often wondered if LT might have changed his mind if Bow had done differently. 

    Still all in the past now.
