    He’s the definition of tongue and cheek, unfortunately a huge percentage of our fan base fall for it every time.

    When we say “midfielder”, I assume it to mean someone in the middle, not a “wide man”. 4 or 5 of the above are wide men. Songo’o is a defensive midfielder, the rest are forward thinking (apparently!)

    Derek Adams himself was a centre midfielder I think?

    Interesting that this seems such an open target to the rest, wonder the reason?

    To use a beautiful cliche-he knows where the back of the net is.
    I’d take him over the Darlo lad

    Probably because we know that realistically we have no chance of getting him.

    I was looking at Georgie Kelly earlier, he would be an UNBELIEVABLE signing.

    I suspect Championship & League One clubs will be after him, because he's a stand out, but last I heard he was linked to the continent, which just sounds to me like no one is fully committing to buying him. I'm sure he'd rather play in the UK than Holland, Belgium or Scandinavia.

    I think this would be the most exciting signing we could make - but he's more linked to clubs like Sunderland than us.

    If we get him, I hope he’s more Bobby than Bazza!

    He's Championship quality.

    We'd be signing him, I reckon he'd be here 12 months maximum.

    This appears to be the type of annual target we name because we have little chance of securing but shows the fans we are trying to be ambitious, and not our fault better placed clubs will be signing him.

    Go on City, prove me wrong

    He won't cost anything in transfer fee as I believe he is out of contract now.

    Cannot see us competing with the likes of Rovrum in wages and ambition

    What on earth are you smoking. He is in Ireland and anyone from that league is a gamble, the standard isn’t good enough to quote that he is championship standard. I’m not saying we shouldn’t try but we shouldn’t be blowing too much money on him.

    Haha, what? The best players from both Irish leagues routinely play at a high level in England.

    Stuart Dallas, James McClean, Enda Stevens, Ryan Manning, Chiedze Ogbene, Daryl Horgan, to name a few. These players specifically moved after their academy years.

    Ireland is a great place to sign players from, and the best generally end up at Championship or SPL sides.

    I wouldn't worry though, we probably won't sign this lad, and he could be playing Championship football with Rotherham next season.

    Well, also from his side, he'd want the best deal possible and league one clubs would be able to offer more but what makes the whole thing odd is why to name him, like you say.

    That was my initial thought, you’d think the club would be learned a lesson from that of anyone is still here from that time that is.
