Where I live we get BBC East Midlands today regional news. Its just been reported that Derby manager Paul Warne has said they may not have the finances for CBT after Charlton turned a bid down earlier for their Number 1 target!
Make of that what you will? 🙅♂️9 -

Interesting. Presumably we will be seeing wingback CBT then if he does not move this window.Redmidland said:Where I live we get BBC East Midlands today regional news.

Which I don’t know how I feel about to be honest.0 -
Lewis Ward has left Swindon
fans are unanimous that he was very badly treated by Swindon and was a top top bloke. Interesting signing it seems2 -
Or striker/No 10 CBT depending on what formation Appleton goes with. I know he’s said 2 up top but we haven’t actually signed a no 9 yetFishCostaFortune said:

Might have to go against the grain here but if we did get this guy, I’m not sure it would be the best move.At that age, he’s not coming here with any sort of scoring pedigree with his best spell coming over 2 seasons at Cambridge who were league 2 at the time. Nor is he young and billed with potential. I understand we’re now short up top, he’d be used as a physical presence and January is tough and we’ve missed out on JCH and the Cheltenham lad, but this smacks of desperation.I’d rather Kanu be given a chance. We can make comparisons with Josh Parker who I agree, wasn’t an elite signing, but he came into a team on the up, with Aribo, Cullen, Beilik and Taylor, and was given a 6 month deal.Everyone gets a chance to prove themselves, but this very much feels like the type of signings the new owners gave us in Jan last year and in the summer.4

Probably signing for Mansfield Town.

I don’t agree with this. I’m not saying he is quality, but he certainly fits a certain profile of player that we are looking for, and for me that puts us light years ahead of where we were in the last two windows.cabbles said:Might have to go against the grain here but if we did get this guy, I’m not sure it would be the best move.At that age, he’s not coming here with any sort of scoring pedigree with his best spell coming over 2 seasons at Cambridge who were league 2 at the time.

I am really excited to find out who our 15th choice option is when this fella goes back to Wycombe over us.

Thanks for the clue Henry:
It's either Big William, Camp Freddie or the Garbageman 🤔1 -
They’ll have to give him an 18 month contract minimum I would imagine. I think it’s a gamble and I understand they want to bring players in and we’ve missed out on what looks like plan A and B, but it worth having a plan C if he’s literally cover for the rest of the season and we have to go again in the summer. We’re in a unique situation re: losing Leaburn and only having May as a fit first team forward, but if this is really an option to provide cover/big lad up top as foil for May, can’t we find a free transfer for 6 months?FishCostaFortune said:

We’re signing this guy whose record is poor, and basically saying, you’re gonna be a part of our plans next season. It’s not pushing us on in the same way none of the above were. Feels very much like a body for the sake of it0 -

But Golfie, it's not a problem that he can't score goals - we'd be signing Uche Unpronounceable to defend set pieces in our own box from the 80th minute and Squeaky Bum Time.golfaddick said:To all those saying that the "big lump" upfront doesn't need to be a goalscorer as we have Alfie May, just consider a moment in the 90th minute, at 1
1, when the ball falls to him 6 yards out & blazes it over the bar.
No thanks. Any striker HAS to know where the goal is. Otherwise you might as well just play Hector up front.

Then let's just resign Jayden Stockley - he wasn't so good at scoring but was really good at defending corners!Oggy Red said:

Great song, no idea on the player but I'll give him 20 minutes into his debut before I judge him.8 -

Knowing our luck we'll end up signing the singer.fenaddick said:

CBT doing a Lyle apparently.3

Can't we just call him Dave.RedChaser said:Callumcafc said:Well I say sign him up, if only because his first name is Rarmani so we can call him Reg.
Remember he had a decent year for Rotherham in their promotion season a couple of years back, remember a couple of impressive moments when he played at the Valley.
There’s only ONE Reg! 😉0 -

Weirdly I could see Dobson to Derby as a possibility. Hourihane is getting on and a lot of their other CMs are youngsters that are just breaking through.1
