    Interesting that we had to do a new deal with Norwich for Famewo, maybe we had to pay a higher percentage of his wages

    Looking at the squad now it does seem balanced although I wasnt happy with Williams going but it seems  solid now

    It was interesting hearing him talk about Smith's playing style

    Im most curious to hear about the winger signing yesterday

    Been trying to sign DJ for three to four days

    We did want a couple in yesterday so certainly doesnt sound like we opted for DJ once we knew we weren't getting Morris

    He didnt elaborate... Just said we had to do a new deal so mentioned it was more like six signings rather than five

    We wanted two wingers I reckon.

    Curbs is funny! Transfers are easier these days with "old matey here doing it unlike my day."

    Pompey will be going in hard, they desperately need to get back up the table .. midfield will be tough going, especially on a very wet pitch .. Millar's pace would be nullified in the wet, he might be a good player but slugging it out in midfield is probably not his forté .. Bowyer has picked a very competitive side with two big, mean strikers .. 2 - 0 to the Addicks

    So who was the other player we wanted yesterday?

    Jees when we return to the Valley, I will miss this show! Minto, Curbs and Gallen. Excellent.

    I reckon TS/Roddy will make sure it possibly blasts through the speakers on match day.

    Gallen saying that Sandgaard is truly backing the Management team if they want a player, he just needs a reason to back them.

    Gallen continues to stress that the Salary Cap is stopping that though... Took a picture of the players signed (on a board at the Valley) before leaving last night, sent it to TS who replied on Whatsapp saying: "Perfect"

    We've a bit in the kitty for any free transfers who may be out there

    Morgan back in the number 10 role where he started.

    Big opportunity for him. Remember him dominating there against Sunderland at home in our promotion season when we had injuries and no one expected much from the game.

    We got promoted 2 years ago, while playing some of the best football we've played in the last decade, starting predominantly with a diamond in midfield... just saying.

    Gallen was hungry for more. Well done club. If we don't get any silly/unlucky injuries, our squad won't show that we missed out on anybody.

    Can't say I'm bothered missing out on Morris

    Yeah I dont get why the diamond is so hated - I know the players arent as good as that team but its not the worst formation

    Interesting that Millar isn’t there. We’ve done well in the past against the teams around us sitting back a bit and being compact, so it looks like we’re going for that here. We were pretty comfortable against them last time but now with the added bonus of starting with better strikers and being able to bring some quality on. Fingers crossed for a win

    Good interview with Gallen as always.
    But is he still crap at signing players, or is he back to being brilliant again?
