    I honestly belive it's up to Lyle (we all know it actually isn't) at least not till the summer. However I feel if he looks LB and MS in the eyes and says look I want to go that will be it and they won't stand in his way. I hate to say sometimes football is about more than just what the fans want to see. 
      I have a feeling we can afford (financially) to let him rot in the reserves for 6 months if he so chooses and I hope that sways his thought process.
    The smart thing would be to offer him a 6 month contract on what Brentford are offering him. Cheaper and less risky than any other possibility.
    The smart thing to do is offer him an 2 and a half year deal, on what Brentford are offering but with a release clause that is valid for the 29th February every odd year.

    The smart thing would be to just say no unless its closer to 10 mil

    Still in negotiations with Bristol Rovers for JCH

    With Timmy Abraham joining them it looks like he's on the way out.

    Still can't believe someone named their kids Timmy and Tammy.
    Kevin and Jason actually, their full names are

    Kevin Oghenetega Tamaraebi Bakumo-Abraham

    Jason Timiebi Ogheneobrucheme Bakumo-Abraham

    Did you know that from memory? 
    Yeah, why not.

    Matt Southall is either uber confident, or just smacked off his tits on Hoola Hoops. 
    Both by now I imagine

    My preference would be the Bristol striker and Maddison, I suspect, based on us allegedly pursuing a defender this window, the former and a defender. McGeady having been brought in rather than Maddison

    Cawley also said we wouldn't be doing a deal last night. 

    2 more would mean our squad is only +1 from where it was.
    But that squad was in the top 6 before injuries hit.

    Most of them are all now back (obviously minus Leko/Gallagher)

    The tweet that says ready to go again, again (and again)  to me implies  3 signings today.

    Hopefully a LB, CB and a striker. That would really improve us and our depth.

    My preference would be Clarke-Harris / Davison swap deal - The latter joining Bristol Rovers on loan until summer 2021 with the option to recall him in both windows (the sort of transfer like what we saw with Jay Dasilva)... then players to come in as cover for Cullen and Purrington (yet more of a Wing-Back)

    Hope he's brought his charger down to 88% already 
    Again again and again 

    3 more signings expected? 👀

    Tell that to Lee Bowyer, who wanted 5 players.

    Plus there's no way they're all going to stay fit. Our record over seasons speaks for itself.

    Editing this post because it sounds very negative. I'm well happy with McGeady and it's very sunny outside!

    We won’t get Maddison now Hull have £14m in their pocket. Hopefully they don’t want Taylor as well.

    Disastrous luck with injuries aside though, I don’t think we had a small squad. 

    Plus we have the emergence of Doughty who wasn’t part of the squad in September. 

    If we bring in 2 today the quantity of the squad is fine.

    Thought that myself - With that much money would be easy to go after Taylor

    Although would it suit Hull's style to have Magennis | Eaves | Taylor as their strikers

    I know Lyle isnt just a targetman but its not a very mobile top three, just a case of lump it into the box

    Think those comments from Bowyer were very much out of frustration after the Preston game. If we get 3 in, keep Taylor and with Cullen and Field now back, he will be a happy little chappy.

    Yeah kinda refreshing. Can’t help think Bowyer and Gallen are a bit ‘hmmmm’ but whatever.

    In the interview just yesterday he said we needed two players just to have the same amount we already had, and we were supposed to be strengthening the squad. He said the more players they can get the better.

    So would he be a happy little chappy with +1? Unlikely.

    I just prefer to go by what people say rather than anything else. I find it's more accurate.

    I think Taylor’s mobility is one of his biggest strengths. His movement across opposition defenders rushes them into mistakes which takes a lot of defensive pressure off the midfield.

    We have a current squad of 26, 25 if you count Page.

    There's no way we need McGeady plus another 4.

    I know they won't all stay fit, but surely Championship sides don't run 30 man squads?

    Wonder if there are two players they're confident of getting to bring the squad back up - They'll probably keep working though just in case anyone becomes available at the last minute who can help the squad

    He might say we didn't given it was announced in the early hours.
