He’s another midget you say! We could pick a team of Oompa Loompas and dress santos up as Willy wonka.

Couple of inches shorter than Sheehan, I'd imagine.

Keeps the medical staff in work!

So many positives.

He's also about the same size as my 11-year-old. So I can buy him one of the auction shirts he can actually wear.

Yeah he sounds ideal tbf

Less pressure on the Lostock pitches if none of the lads can train.

GhostoftheBok

What I will say is that if we signed players like Liam Walsh and then Evatt complained about injuries I'd be tempted to have him sectioned.

GhostoftheBok

New link to the "Merseyside Messi" Liam Walsh, formerly of Everton and most recently Swans. Had his only season of note at Coventry when they won League One. 26. Never been able to stay fit. Possibly the most "We have no money and are in the League One, but have ambition" signing possible. Could eit...

I doubt much is going on. People will be on holidays. Am sure a retained list will follow. If Markham is on holiday it'll be a quick one. Usually the busiest time of year in that department. Retained list has to land soon, per the rules. I'd like a settler in through the door, but I imagine an anno...

Kevin Nolan leaving West Ham.

Not sure he's got the legs anymore.

Sarcevic has had his say on his departure. These failings out happen but if what he says is true….

He also said he didn't dance around and sing about Bolton, but he's on camera doing it.

Why would anyone believe a word of the rest of it?

GhostoftheBok

Posh have started doing their usual thing of reaching down into the lower league for fast, dribbly lads.

Abraham Odoh this time, formerly of 'Dale.

Good fit for them.

So you can pretty much say 2PPG plus is the target from the off.

Has to be the target, yes.

I noticed his name last week and thought of you. But at that point I thought we might be a Champo team in for him

An injury-prone Placheta and a NOX-addled Brandon Williams.

I can pick 'em, lads. I can pick 'em.

Get it done.

GhostoftheBok

Yeah, I wasn't arguing the point. Merely sort of agreeing with you, with a bit of an extra worry.

Evatt might be on a promotion season and people could still turn on a sixpence at the first sight of a hiccup.

"Here we go again" is bound to be a concern, even when we're going well.

GhostoftheBok

On the Norwich theme, Placheta was released by Swans.

Lad would tear League One to bits, fitness allowing.

GhostoftheBok

Parky's promotion season we conceded 36 goals. Last season we conceded 36 goals.

We've been told both that the manager can't coach defending like Parky can and the defenders aren't as good as Parky's defenders were.

How does that work?

But that’s my view I’m fairly certain yours is totally different.

Yes, but like I say I was asking for yours and not looking to pick at it.

GhostoftheBok

Am I correct that we are required to produce our retained list this week?

GhostoftheBok

TBF, I think Ainsworth has fewer votes in favour than keeping Evatt - he's got one with maybe a second pick after Duff from Dibs...Move on. The "get ridders" sometimes don't help themselves much... :-) They don't, but equally your point about "dead man walking" isn't miles off. Like I say, every pr...

GhostoftheBok

Absolutely respect all that. And it’s hard to express it accurately on here. Santos is indeed a physical monster and when he’s in that mode is very good. The problem is he’s rarely in that mode and when he’s not is a liability. And certainly doesn’t dominate strikers when he’s not on it. Yes. Howev...

GhostoftheBok

The reality is that all the promoted managers got close to the sack last season. All three had fans calling for their heads, all got called bottlers, etc. Mousinho and Bucks did genuinely good jobs. They navigated difficult moments when they could have lost their jobs, under really difficult circums...

if you hire Ainsworth, you get hoofball

...and no "Plan B."
