    if he signs then you're correct. if he doesn't then the politics have spoiled the deal and you're correct again

    I’ve read today (and don’t know where to find it now) that we’ve been linked with Stoke midfielder Tashan Oakley Booth. Don’t know if he’s defensive but looks like he’s a big lad! This will have been somewhere on either this or t’other forum.

    Personally I know very little about Roberts, but folk are raving about him...look forward to seeing him play.

    Secondary reminder that 2 January's ago we signed Declan John.

    The club has entirely changed

    To be fair, I thought signing Declan John was good business. He's a decent player at this level, just for whatever reason, he didn't make a single appearance. Bringing him in wasn't bad though.

    We've boosted our defensive and attacking options so far this window no doubt.

    Yes,, right wing cutting inside with Trai Hume or Huggins overlapping.

    Kinda fits the bill, young player who lost his way. Hasn't played at all this season according to his Wikipedia page

    What's bizarre is that Football Insider are so ITK about our transfers that they knew we would announce at 3pm. But they said it was a loan.

    What's that about? Who's giving them that news if they think is a loan?

    Clearly its somebody who knows we are going to announce it at that time. And all 3 of us, City and Troyes announced at same time. So it could be that they actually got the news from Troyes. Or they got the news from somebody in our "office" who knew the announcement was happening but not privy to detail.

    No need to be sorry mate. When I saw him at Derby he played as a bit of a left sided 10, if that makes sense. He played off the right at celtic. I am assuming we have taken him for the left side to fill the McGeady role. We have enough on the right I think in Dujaku and Gooch. Just my guess but someone with as good a left foot as him should find playing in that left hand slot of the 3 easy.

    Just think.
    With this new signing who is supposed to be a bit of a tricky player, we could have him, Pritchard and McGeady behind the leagues top scorer.

    It could be like the Harlem Globe Trotters if they all are on their game.
    Being fed clever passes by our boy Neil and with Cirkin and Huggins doing their magic.
    What a team to watch.

    Really looking forward to seeing Roberts play, he sounds like real talent and hopefully we can get to see the best of him in a red and white shirt.

    Ha’way the lads

    Dont forget we have Broadhead to return yet aswell. We also have Embleton, Dajaku and dare i say Gooch aswell (if its one of his good days).
    Not many league 1 clubs will cope with that much attacking talent.

    Players like this don't come cheap and don't often drop to League One ...

    ... that's great business by the club.

    Exactly. If we get two centre forwards. What if its only one. In that scenario I think Defoe would be a bad choice.
