    TBH is a few hundred grand even worth Palace and Brums troubles? They may aswell loan them out and find out for themselves. They stay in control then and dont have to pay a premium on a buy back....

    It works for Man City selling kids to Ipswich and Burnley for £20m with a buy back but Palace and Brum wont be interested for a £250k fee. Its chicken feed.

    Exactly the same anology I referred to yesterday. These wealthy clubs have zero need to release all their young players early . They can develop them themselves , with the aid of loans to decent clubs , and if they eventually pay off reap the rewards themselves rather then give the profit to others .

    Yes. They only sell now if they dont see a future in the player. They may well accept a sell on clause in order for a lower fee but thats about as far as it goes.

    I think it’s that Huddersfield have joined the race for Wallace

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Sam Cosgrove turn up as our new striker , he's on a free transfer and played at Wigan when Sharpe was there . He had a very prolific spell at Aberdeen but not rediscovered that form since.

    I wouldnt be surprised either - but that would be a very worrying signing. This is from the Theo Robinson and Coalan Lavery play book. Was hoping we were past that.

    We would have been better off just keeping oliver who had better stats in league 1 but perish the thought .

    We can knock Yengi off the list he's joined Aberdeen.

    Need quality, not quantity in forward positions. Id be very happy with one very good striker with Kav and Cook (returning September/October).

    If Browne has signed he could be a 4th choice option as CF.

    Neither is Leigh. Didn't stop him being used as one though.

    True, but some clubs will genuinely look to smooth the path for a player and do what's right for their futures, so long as the club doesn't throw away future value.

    Should be an excellent "like for like replacement" for Callum Johnson then.

    Not by trade but has played plenty of forward roles during Oxford days. And like I said, a makeshift 4th choice.
