‘Anderson looks like a million pound player in the making - I think he will go to a championship club in a year or two, where he will benefit from better resource and peers. From there I can see him signing for a premiership team a couple of years later. He has the speed, the build and the...

Equally, he couldn’t kick the ball onto the pitch?

3/10. Complete gash. Missed the most obvious foul ever late in the first half when Bossie kicked their bloke up in the air on the corner of our box, then proceeded to ensure he evened things up 30seconds later by not giving a blatant hack on the half way line. Omitted to book Palmer for scoring...

I’d imagine it is ‘The Quiet Fan’ by Ian Plenderleith which has an extract published in this months When Saturday Comes. Alas the extract isn’t about the imps. The book seemingly covers Rangers, Scotland and the Imps.

Believe it, don’t believe it, it’s of no concern to me. My ‘source’ is well informed, close to the club and has no reason to make things up. Akinde was very clearly our number one target and the club did what it needed to do to get him, which was spend an awful lot of money. But as alluded to...

4.5k per week, and £100k initial fee with another £100k appearance/goal/promotion based.

The total package for Akinde over the course of his 3 year contract will be around the £900,000 mark, assuming the transfer fee is paid in full. £700000 of that will be wages.

Nearly as much as we are paying Big John :oops:

Potentially a strange choice of club to go to, but I was informed by someone relatively ITK prior to the Exeter game that DC had decided he needed to upgrade both Green & Palmer, so there may be something in it. They would want a fee for Green but Palmer free to a good home. Time will tell......

Green & Palmer to be moved on if we can find takers....looking for a fee for Green but Palmer free to go.

Farman to go if we can find a taker...no point having a back up keeper who you don’t have the confidence to play.

Palmer, Farman & Green up for transfer, Whitehouse, Stewart and Arnold (if anyone can find him) released. Eardley moves on but we sign Rowe. Beyond that the crystal ball is a little cloudy....

Indeed.....given where we were 2 years ago, nobody can really can complain.

Maybe so, but Boateng was superb over both games with Harley not far behind. Who on our side could do that?

Anybody who blames the ref needs to take the blinkers off. They were better than us, simples. We need to recruit players who have the quality like Harley and Boateng to do what they did...we are 99% effort and 1% quality..that needs adjusting for next season.
