I think Gravenberch would be pretty decent in the Belgium second division.

What sort of player would you be, country?

I see you as a busy midfielder

Across between the pcuntishness of Roy Keane, the work rate of Berbatov, the positioning of Balotelli and the ability of Nicholas Bignall.

I'd also always be offside.

I'd take a punt on you in the Belgian 2nd tier.

Al Habsi wanted by Leicester, West Brom and half of Saudi Arábia now in the Daily Mail.

Keown went to Scotland. Looks like that was a pretty decent search I did after all...

Wouldn't mind us going for a loan of Adam Armstrong.


Pacy has a few goals in him,can't see him getting game time in the Prem next season

The Informant Welcome to the board.

I am not that up to date on the standard of the second tier in Belgium however the player is a bit of an all rounder. Can fill in at full back, center back and in midfield.

Not pacey but he is a big lad and has decent technique and is an alright utility player.

What sort of crowds are you getting?


By English standards a little crowd, by the Belgian standards a decent crowd. Especially when you consider we have a lot of 1A (first tier) and 1B (second tier) teams on a short distance from each other in Belgium (All in the region West-Flanders ans the borders.) There are teams in our league who are getting a lot less. But it's a great crowd, who tries to stand by the team and to show their support. A couple of days ago, we got a compliment of the head of the referees we should be proud of our management, our team and our crowd. Also because we don't cause a lot of havoc. He does admit we sometimes hate the ref (and that it's sometimes justified ;) ). If I should say it in 6 words: "We are one team, one family" ;)

The fans who are still with the team after all the years of misery, are the real ones who will never turn their back to the team. :wink:

If we are looking at spending 5 million on darlow I am upping my expectations for a striker. What do you reckon it would cost to add Chris wood to our ranks. I reckon about 8 million.

Gotta side with the in form ant here. He would cost an amount he would not be worth.

I think that is the world of football these days though. I would have had Rhodes but he has already been snapped up and proven championship strikers are hard to come by.

So it makes your valuation of Wood even more confusing.

I may be a bit off on price and Huddersfield are apparently interested anyway. Who would you get in with championship experience then? As we now apparently have money to spend.

James Wilson or someone similar on loan. Start Yann. He deserves our faith.

Like the Wilson suggestion but ideally we need a permanent signing.

Giuseppe Rossi is now available on a free and only 30 :wink:

His wages would be more than the fee and wages for Wood?
I like James Wilson as well but Sam Gallagher would be a better option on a permanent deal if we are going to go down a younger back up to Yann route.

I hope for Hudders sake they don't sign Wood. Fear for them after their signings. Can't see him being Prem standard at all

Leeds were suggestion 20million for him at one point to give a rough idea of how much he would cost.

Noticed one of the players I suggested - Jota at Brentford - was also being touted for 8 million after half a good season. Is all a bit silly really
