The transfer window is open!

I think it’s simply a case of looking at our options and realising we have a player here that we would probably be signing if he wasn’t already ours so it’s a no brainer to get him back to help with the play off push. I doubt anyone else’s future will have come into the decision. If McKenna sees potential in those other forwards they will stay and if he doesn’t then they’ll be moved on. I don’t think Norwood or Bonne’s futures in the first XI are safe either.

I wonder what is happening with Ben Morris. He showed mountains of potential before the injuries.

 

I agree re Norwood, Hampy, when he came on tother day, he just raged around like a bull, threatening face to face, and I dont recall one proper pass, collect or shot. However, on his day, he is a flipping nuisance and scores goals!

 

TBH, I cant remember seeing him play, but the Robins have been playing well, scoring lots, and so has he. If Kieran sees potential in the lad,I respect that. He has managed to bring on and encourage several players to really perform at their best. Thats the real professional coach he is. And I think we will need more forward cover, going forwards, sorry!

 

I think it’s right that KM assesses all the players we have available before bringing in new guys.Even if that means we remain a work in progress for the rest of this Season and give it a concerted push next.

 

Swans may be in for Fraser. Take the money and run I say!

 

Fraser and Downes sounds like a quality midfield to me...shame

 

Sarcasm?

 

Downes and morsy would be better

 

They could take it turns to get sent off!!

 

No sarcasm there, think they would be a decent combination together

 

McKenna has said he had nothing to do with the decision to recall Simpson, it was a "club" decision due to contract issues

 

Wow if he’s been pulled away from Swindon and they’ve no intention of playing him I’m not sure I like that.

 

I don't get why we'd do that either. If we're looking to sell him for a decent fee this month, due to his good form at Swindon, then that makes sense. If we're recalling him to be part of the first team picture, due to one or two first team strikers being sold this window, then that also makes sense. But if we've just called him back only to stick him in the reserves - or put him on the bench for the odd game here and there - then that is massively unfair to the lad who was building a strong reputation over there.

 

Pearson, like every City fan, is totally frustrated with Bakinson.
6'3'' and has everything to have a successful career.
In a game he switches off, goes missing, and comes across as lazy and couldn't care.
Which given his size and natural talent is incredibly frustrating.
He's a nice lad and I hope the move to ITFC along Pearson's parting remarks might just spark him into life.

 

Sounds like he had an acrimonious departure from Luton as well

 

Young left back, Dominic Thompson signed on loan from Brentford.
Has played a handful of Premiership games this season, including almost 90 minutes against Man City, where City could only win 1-0...
Looks a good signing if he can gel with the other lads quickly

 

Looks a great loan deal to me, left back has been our weakness most of the season so....a no brainer imo!

 

Just a centre back to go and that’s my wish list for January done!

First time in decades I’ve been able to say that.

 

Can't see that happening with Burgess as cover. Not saying it's right but I think KM will look at Donacien as more of a cb, so we have four CB's, if two get injured he would revert to four at the back and use Burns as a temp fullback, that's my guess anyway.

 

I think you may well be right. I’m sure we have enough until the summer now. Left wing back was a huge gaping hole.
