    Yes, but when all are used as often as they are or will it seems when Devitt is back, it's a tough drop unless we sign one.

    In tougher games we could also play a Taylor type on the right and get him to tuck in a bit, making it a 3 in there when we don't have the ball..

    Wasn't this the thing that Bowyer was keen to avoid after last season??

    Not sure who I'd sign of the 5 loanees, due to the amount of injuries they've had.

    I think Oteh will make way if It came down to it. A useful squad player but is ultimately our 4th or 5th choice striker when everyone’s fit.

    Cooke and possibly Connolly is about it from me.

    Can't really comment on Devitt.

    Oteh signed a new deal before his loan so wont be him. Connolly has another year, so would be a bigger fee.

    Devitt is free to leave Blackpool, Palmer & Cooke's deals are up in the summer so it's likely one of them three. All 3 are on big ish money it looks like. Probably need Akpan/Anderson to leave to free up that extra cash.

    I do recall that, but If finances dictate that his only option is to bring in a cheap loan replacement then I don’t see what else he can do unless he wants to give Sykes-Kenworthy a go.

    Not really expecting much activity now Doyle’s back, not even signing up someone like Connelly on a permanent. This is going to be the dullest transfer window known to man.

    Will suit the manager right down to the ground then. Just how he likes it. He's never happier than playing the dullard.

    So no one leaving yet and no one coming in. Strange that, apart from the goalie change being forced upon us, there has been no movement of players at all and its now nearly 3 weeks since the window opened.

    Since rupp has been here, City have had a quiet january for McCall, a quiet january for Hopkin and i am expecting nothing new for Bowyer.

    Not sure we need anyone to be honest. Devitt will be like a new signing when he returns, sounds like Donaldson should be back soon.

    We could do with trimming the squad though a bit, too much deadwood in midfield.

    I reckon Cooke will sign permanently, I hope so, think he will do a good job for us long term

    That's the same number that's in @Fordy117@Fordy117's imaginary Merc. Stops the midgets escaping out the back
