Stockley would have been my number 1 target, so just the fact he was here last season probably made it feel like a formality rather than a very good signing for many.1

Yes, I suppose if you feel a club is on the up in League One, it has to be more attractive than a club destined to struggle in the Championship. What it will signal, if we get those sort of players over clubs at the higher level, is that the player believes that to be the case. Stockley wasn't being chased by Championship clubs, so it could be a real positive indicator if it happens. We clearly are going to see some business done and it will come down to what it is.0

Redhenry said:The Championship is obviously more appealing than League 1. There are others factors such as money, club, location, playing time and club ambition.
I have known players choose a club in a lower league many times.
I know nothing can be promised entirely but there is a way of projecting your ambition and making these players believe that it will tie in with theirs. It won't be cheap.
The longer we go on without securing quality linchpins into the squad the more I'll get concerned.0 -

Don't worry, none of them will go because Bowyer lost the dressing room and is hated3 -
Not good if Chucks goes.3

LargeAddick said:I just wish TS hadn't said that 'we are going to blow this league out of the water' and Nigel ' that will be us next year' because they have set themselves up for a mighty fall whilst at the same time raising fans expectations. I am disappointed in our business so far because I thought they were really going to hit the ground running and make a few early signings to actually show the fans that they do mean business and to send a message to our rivals. There is a long way to go and I trust TS, NA et al to assemble a team to be fighting at the top end of the table but I am getting, like SHG, a tad twitchy.2

Must admit I took it at face value though, and of course who's to say they won't be proved right.
Think we will all feel more relaxed if/when we get a couple of marquee signings

If people want to make puns (fair enough), start a separate puns thread & leave this one for football rumours, thanks.https://youtu.be/aFW6yUlgGdI

The worry for me is that is seems that many seem to jump on everything as TS or Adkins being rubbish or worse than previous owners, like I've seen some people saying every little mistake or not even one in some cases. Not about you that is BTW.

Massive gamble on Chuks yes he scored 15 goals but against a tired defence if he was doing it playing from the start diff story … says a lot where Birmingham are getting injured players on a free from league one …0

Millwall trying to sign Daniel Ballard who was on loan at Blackpool last season
Only mention him on this thread rather than the other as he's been a name mentioned on the "desired fan list"0 -
Bowyer signing the better players from gillingham and Charlton. It looks like he is building a good relegation squad13
-
ElliotCAFC said:1) Football League World is hardly a reliable source, they’ve released plenty of insider articles that turn out to be rubbish.2) It’s not the end of the world if we lose Chuks to Birmingham. He’s not going to a promotion rival and it means we have to spend some money on getting a good replacement (one that can actually play a full game).
We lose Chuks.....not good
We have to spend money on a replacement.....money we could spend on another player.
Easy ain't it, lets hope that the "bargain" we pick up, should he defect to Bowyer, is able to score 15+ goals and turn games on their head as Chuks did..simple when you think of it I suppose..

would ideally like Chucks to stay but would of preferred Stockley over him purely on fitness basis.
If Chucks goes it might open up a space for a quicker forward/winger to play of Jayden.
Whatever happens I am confident in the owner that we will have a squad at the end of August that will allow us to challenge and build a base for years to come.8
